We have problems now too. You can easily make arguments that America used to be better. Our economy was better. There was less street crime. There were less drugs. Families stayed together. It was better in many ways in the 1950's. Even women and minorities were safer. Women were happier. The black community is poorer now than it was back then. There were Jim Crow laws but that only existed in the south. Look at the inner cities now. It's not better for them either.
From the start. Declaration of Independence, Constitution, freeing the slaves, Industrial Revolution, women’s right to vote, blacks right to vote, civil rights movement, and all the “firsts” of women and minorities including certain jobs and political offices. If you have to “ask” when America was great, then 1), you don’t really want an answer and 2), leave anytime, and 3), if America was never great then no country ever was.
I noticed a flaw in Trump's wording. He should have said, "Let's make USA great again." Why? Because now Mexico and South America are laughing about it saying that includes them too, since they're in America too. They're saying "we are Americans too…" (with a lot of resentment)
s the 2024 presidential election heats up with prominent candidates like Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in the race, the National Federation of Republican Assemblies (NFRA) has made headlines by declaring that Vice President Harris, along with other notable figures, might be ineligible to hold the office of President according to the U.S. Constitution.
NFRA’s document claims
The NFRA’s stance, outlined in a recent policy document, draws on the controversial Dred Scott v. Sandford Supreme Court ruling of 1857, which infamously declared that enslaved individuals could not be considered U.S. citizens. This ruling, a product of its time, was later overturned by the 13th and 14th Amendments, which abolished slavery and established citizenship rights for all persons born in the United States. Despite this historical context, the NFRA’s document suggests that the ruling’s interpretation still has relevance in discussions about presidential eligibility.

According to the NFRA’s document, which was adopted at their national convention last October, only individuals who meet a strict “natural born citizen” criterion should be eligible for the presidency. This interpretation is influenced by the opinions of Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, who argued that a “natural born citizen” must be born in the U.S. to two U.S. citizen parents at the time of birth. The NFRA contends that figures like former U.S. Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, as well as Kamala Harris, do not meet this
I'm a black man. My grandfather was born in 1913. He raised a nuclear family and purchased a house. Those two accomplishments seem to be hard to come by today. I would say that there's greatness in that 🤔
America was literally on top of the world! Bird/Magic, Jordan, Shaq, Michael Jackson, Joe Montana, 92 Dream Team, Full House, Family Matters, Fresh Prince, Boy Meets World, Terminator, Goodfellas, Batman, Scarface, Nirvana, Rolling Stones, KISS, Biggie, Tupac, Stone Cold, The Rock and WWE. We had the Greatest Economy in the World, we beat the Soviet Union in the Cold War.
Best Music, Best TV, Best Movies, Best Leaders, we were the most undivided.
Literally EVERYTHING tries to reboot what was once originated during the 80s/90s.
We were producing not only the Best, but the most! The whole world wanted to be an American.
Without question, that's what Trump refers to. It was also the time during his prime.
TRUMP 2024!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!!!
IMHO, four moments of greatness occur to me: 1. July 16-24, 1969, Apollo 11. On October 25, 1960, Vice President Nixon projected manned moon landings by the early 1970’s. On May 25, 1961, President Kennedy set that goal by decade’s end. On July 20, 1969, this accomplishment marked the United States as unique. But this greatness was shared by President Nixon with all humanity when he said “…all the people on this Earth are truly one…” In recorded history, this also marked humanity’s uniqueness among other Earth species. 2. August 9, 1974, President Nixon’s resignation. When Nixon resigned as a result of the Watergate affair, history witnessed this country experiencing an ouster of its head of government-and-state without bloodshed. This happened following then-recent world history marked by assassinations, coups d’etat, and revolutions. 3. January 2000 to March 2001, the longest economic expansion in history up to that time. This period was marked by emergence from the Cold War, rise of the Internet, and a bipartisan approach to the economy by Republican and Democratic presidents as well as both parties in congress. 4. My serving as a presidential elector in 2020. A photo was taken at that time by Ted Warren, of the AP: of me comforting my longtime friend and fellow elector Jack Arends, who passed away seven months later: https://images.app.goo.gl/U6PvWNLmtgBCho6x7
