My dream for America is for violence to stop, so that people could rest easy and not have to worry about being killed. Peace would stop terrorist attacks, and we would never have to go to war again.

To get this peace, however, we would have to create a good name for ourselves in the world. For instance, some Muslims think that America is bent on destroying Islam. My dream for America is to have people know that America is good. After all, this country was founded on the idea that all people are equal.

America should try to make peace in the world instead of going to war all the time. I know that this is what we are trying to do, but there are better ways of making peace than sending soldiers to kill other people. I think, that before going to war with a country, that we should try to talk things out. This would save a lot of lives, and maybe help citizens to not worry as much.

Overall, America is a great country. There are little things to improve, but we are constantly trying to improve them. I think that this is what makes America great. But, if we did the things in this essay, America would be even greater.
