He symbolizes Not giving up in the hands of defeat. George Washington lead american soldiers to victory, with help from others like Hamilton and Hercules mulligan. He kept america stable during it's early stages of federalism, and new what was best for the country when he stepped down as president. He was smart and a glorious leader, and without him, we would have lost the war against Britain. ]]> 2017-10-05 18:24:37 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194449452 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194449581 2017-10-05 18:24:48 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194449581 The White House 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194449777 It's where the president lives. It's been a place of pure american spirit since 1792. Even though Britain burned it down in the War of 1812, It was rebuilt. America always prevails. Each President adds a new "thing" to the White house, which shows diversity of the nation and it's leaders. Even though cultures are very different, they can all subside under one roof, one nation. ]]> 2017-10-05 18:25:09 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194449777 Affordable lamps 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194450865 This is a good symbol of America because it resembles how everyone can see through the darkness.The Bill of rights and the Constitution give citizens freedom without a price. Just like you can buy a lamp, you also have the right to do so much more. The Lamp represents light. Light shines away darkness, or depression, just like people, American companionship, can shine light on the darkness....TEEHEE (don't take this one seriously...it's a reference.)]]> 2017-10-05 18:26:54 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194450865 Jefferson Barracks national cementary 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194451264 This Military cemetery can be linked to political culture as is is a resting place for the people who died serving America (in the military).

Humans are all different, and even if that may seem to be a dividing factor, that want for individuality can bring people together. America allows for anyone to want to be anything. People get choices and it's up to the individual to decide on what path they'll choose. America is seen as the "melting pot" country. It houses so many different people and cultures which makes it interesting. ]]> 2017-10-05 18:29:02 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194452140 justice 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194646637 The Constitution promises all accused the right to a lawyer. This country seeks justice, represented by the flag's blue colors. Humans want wrongs to be corrected, and America gives everyone that chance. Justice is something every American believes in, even if they don't think they do. From the little things like "Who stole the last cooki" to the big things like "Which one of you committed [insert federal crime here]" everybody believes in justice. ]]> 2017-10-06 12:25:44 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194646637 Statue Of Liberty 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194796476 The Statue of Liberty was a gift given to america by the french to celebrate their alliance during the Revolutionary war.

The civil war split our country, revolving around unsolved issues about slavery left by the founding fathers of america. The president who ended the war, Abe Lincoln, wrote the emancipation proclamation. This document, along with other military strategies, helped the slaves finally join our country, uniting us, and it, in all ways, brought the south back into the U.S.A. ]]> 2017-10-06 17:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/194803740 Citations 20isabellaharter https://padlet.com/20isabellaharter/9sfumvkbooj6/wish/195086824 "Detective Heart of America."
