    Dear America,

    I love you. A lot. I really do. I get chills when I read little tidbits of the Declaration of Independence. I'm grateful for the rights that we have because in other places . . . they're crimes.

    I love you. . . I just wish people would stop using you like some kind of doormat.

    Love, Me

    DEAR AMERICA:

    Australia has compiled a list of things you can improve on, not just from our point of view, but the rest of the world.

    1. When you're a tourist in our country it would be nice if you absorbed the culture and not stuffing yours down in our throat: "American wine is better...back in America...Oh you crazy Australians..." -_-
    You're also VERY LOUD! we can hear an American tourist coming a kilometre away. This brings in point number two:
    2. PLEASE wear better clothing! Your pro-USA clothing and Hawaiian shirts are a dead give a way!
    3. Keep your nose out of other countries business, WE know what's good for our country and we don't need you trying to be Mr. Hero and saving the day.
    4. Why are you so patriotic?! The American flag pins and the flags and all that seems cult like! You would be the ONLY country who is that patriotic, it's insane.
    5. THE WAR IN IRAQ IS STUPID! and I HATE how Australia must be apart of it because of the stupid ANZUS treaty we have -_- now our government is also to blame for joining, but our government is gay like that BUT you started it! HOLY CRAP the world hates you for it!
    7. You go after countries because they have dangerous weapons but you have nuclear weapons and bombs that could destroy the world TEN TIMES OVER!
    8. You had a retard for a president and you voted for him TWICE; hence the world thinking your and idiot.
    9. Why must the world money be dictated by Wall Street and America? It makes you look like power Nazis
    10. You invented McDonalds.... FOR SHAME
    11. YOU SPEAK ENGLISH NOT AMERICAN! You have an American accent and slang and spelling THAT'S IT

    Now this final comment is going to offend, but let me be honest.

    12. I hate that because of 9/11 you think that you as a government could trick the American people and use fear and terror tactics; tactics that have been used by some famous people (one example was Hitler) so you could start a war. And yes I know that innocent people died in those two buildings and I know that it will be a part of history forever BUT You have killed millions of people in total because of it, towers and buildings fall because of you; and not ONCE have you investigated the 9/11 attacks. You used hatred and revenge because two buildings went down and the ONLY reason why the rest of the world cares is because it happened in America, that's it. The war on terror my arse; you wanted power and control...well you got it.

    So America I write this to you not to offend the people but to the country itself because I have met Americans that are kind and intelligent; not to mention some of my heros are American themselves.
    But America, you wanted to know, and that is a very broad and stereotypical reason as to why the world hates you.

    Please don't bomb me.
    Regards,
    Australia.

    North Korea. They're forced to be that patriotic. It's just you never see them because they're not allowed to leave.

    Dear America,

    I would like George Washington back in office. I don't think he approves of these factions.

    Please and thank you.

    P.S.
    I'd also appreciate a crackdown on education and less welfare. I can't get my teeth fixed because my parents are middle-class (with sucky dental coverage) workers and are not eligible for Medicaid, but some of my friends' deadbeat/methhead/illegal parents are; I'd like to have nice teeth too. Unless, Donald Trumph doesn't mind paying.

    Thank you for the protection of the justice system(although its faulty)

    Dear My Country,

    Please stop making me fat. Your fast food joints are so cheep. Oh, and stop saying "God bless America." because what if I don't believe in God? Am I not a part of this country?

    Dear America,

    STOP IT!
    With the stupid news.
    Okay... Bieber.. he's popular. I get it. Stop it. Give me the REAL news, what's going on politics? What bills are being passed? I shouldn't have to wade through 5 pages of shit to find out whats going on in the country. If I cared about all the 'relationship tips' and 'hot celeb styles' I'd search them. They trend all the time. May I please know what's really going on?

    And, Americans, stop going sue-crazy. I just heard about a girl who sued her dad when he turned her internet off, and she WON! Disgust
    And, FYI, coffee is hot. If you spill it on your lap, that's your fault.

    That's capitalism for you.
    That's why we have waivers and signed contracts for EVERYTHING.

    Woooow, I can't believe that actually happened. How could they let her win? If I was her dad I'd spank her ass up and down the house. Suing your own dad, she must be on crack or something.

    Dear Republicans of America,
    Stop refusing to sign bills in Congress until the Bush Tax cuts come back. No one cares about them. We shouldn't be worrying about the richest people in the US when the country is just making it's way out of a recession. Help the lower and middle class. Stop acting like two year olds and refusing to move until you get your dessert. Your supposed to represent the American people. That means all the people. Not just the top 2%. How you all got elected into office, I'll never know.

    Dear America,

    I appreciate the opportunities you've given me-- I really do. I like having lots of choices. But could you please just chill out for five seconds? And stop being so loud? I'm getting drowned out by everyone around me.

    And please stop doing news the way you do. It's always "he was murdered and she was raped and he was kidnapped and her limbs were all cut off by her mother, and your neighbor is probably a psychopath and your rosebush is trying to kill you and basically if you step out your door you will die a very painful death. In other news, Obama is going to destroy this country and drive us all into debt, and all the potential presidents are also going to taint our very souls just by walking into the room."

    Dear America,

    I know you have problems -- but then again, what country doesn't?

    Thank you for being a good home to my family and I when we moved here. Thank you for all the generous people who helped my family as we adjusted to our new lives. Thank you for providing an education on par with the one I was receiving back home. Thank you for allowing me to get my residency papers filed quickly, so I know I have opportunities not just where I grew up, but here as well.

    Dear United States of America,

    I am proud to be an American. I get tears in my eyes when I sing songs like "Proud to Be an American" and other patriotic songs. Sure, I know you are not perfect, no country is, and some things that go on really frustrate me, but that's not your fault. It's ours. That being said, the East Coast sucks. 'nuff said.

    Dear America,
    Please don't tell me I'm spelling things wrong. British English came first, I promise. As well, please stop trying to police the world; you really aren't making it any better. Also, just because you finally managed to get a black president doesn't mean you're morally superior. And if Palin is elected to any position of govermental importance, I'm moving to Canada.
    -Love, a citizen who appreciates you deep inside...but thinks you have some issues.

    Stop eating.

    Put the music back in schools.

    Be more open on other political ideas.

    Love,

    Dear America

    Stop the racism and hate. Everyone is equal, and (a special message for Massachusetts) in the train stations, only tell us when the train is coming, NOT a message like this, "Fare evasion is a violation of...."
