No More Same Old, Same Old
Desperate times call for desperate action.
We need to change the way we do things in order to succeed. Government needs to acknowledge that changes must be made. We cannot keep operating under the same practices. We must challenge the status quo and think for ourselves. We cannot just sit back and eat up what the major parties tell us. They can deceive the electorate, and this is very dangerous. They polarize the American people, so we are really just choosing those who are good party candidates, not American candidates.
We need people in Washington and all of government to really value what the American people want. Bickering in congress of this and that does not help anyone. It hurts the American people. These two sides need to learn to get along and put aside their interests groups, their big sponsors, and do what is right for the people.

Citizenship: What We Really Need
In our country, we cannot have a system that restricts who is a citizen merely by where they are born. We should instead pursue judgement of character as the paramount criterion. Instead of worrying whether or not someone is from the US and isn't an illegal immigrant, we should instead look to those who will make our society better. that's the kind of people we want making our decisions, that's the kind of citizen we need in America. Rigidity in who we call a citizen or not a citizen will restrict who can take part in benefiting the nation, a situation America cannot afford to pursue.
This does not mean we will let all illegals in and legalize them. No, but it does mean we need to have a new outlook on citizenship. We want people to pursue active citizenship, trying to benefit society, no matter who they are or where they are from. This can be a call to action for all Americans to step up and help society.
We hope, that one day in America, we will consider a citizen not just someone born in this country, or looks like they are from this country, but whether they want to improve and benefit this country. In order to become a great nation, we must have great people. In order to establish such a nation, we must all take action in our respective communities. We must usher in a new age where Americans must take pride in their country, take pride in their work, and take pride in calling themselves citizens of the United States of America. After all, we are not Whites, or Blacks, Caucasians, or Hispanics, legal or illegals, or even Democrats or Republicans. Instead, we are Americans. Though in will not be easy, we should all yearn for the day when everyone here in the United States of America will truly be United, and then we can truly call ourselves America.

Embrace Challenges to Fix Problems in Society
Problems face our society every day. At times, these problems seem overwhelming, as if they can't be fixed. If we are to improve society and make it stronger, we need to embrace these challenges and fix our problems. Many politicians shirk away from bold action when it is needed. While there is a time for prudence and patience, there are also times when we need actions. The status quo will remain forever, if we do not get our acts together. We all have the power to change society. Let's take action when action is needed most.
Christianity and Islam
Today, Islam and Christianity are often divided, portrayed as enemies in a quest for world dominance. The relationship, though, is more complicated than that. If we are to truly understand the workings of Christianity, or in many of our cases, Islam, we need to learn about each of them. Where they came from. What the worship. What they believe. Many of us unjustly discriminate against others merely because we do not understand them. They in turn, judge us because they do not understand us either. Radicals dominate the news, but most people are not radicals. They're just people.
Both Christianity and Islam stated from humble origins, are were effectively spread by peaceful means, such as traders or merchants. The peaceful spread of ideas was critical, as well as openness to other ethnic groups. In understanding that Christianity and Islam are in many ways the same and were both spread (and coexisted) at times peacefully, the world can one day hope to live peacefully with two powerful, insightful ideologies
We have much to learn from Islam's and Christianity's rich histories. Misunderstanding creates fear and anger amongst both parties. Christian-Muslim interaction is of paramount importance as the US, a predominantly Christian nation, fights in three Muslim countries to date. The stability of the region depends on how well we interact with them, and how we understand them.
With harmony, there is reason for optimism. With less disagreement, we can fight the world's problems with a combined moral purpose. To unite the world and dissolve the boundary of miscommunication that exists between many Christians and Muslims, an understanding must be reached. An understanding that reaches beyond our own religious beliefs, and understanding that reaches beyond faith.

Innovation
America must encourage innovation in business and in government. The best ideas sometimes come from unlikely sources, and the government must foster ways to take risks and test ideas in the private and public sectors. This means encouraging a break from the status quo. Innovators defy normal, and come up with trailblazing new ideas. Small businesses are great incubators of innovation, and strengthening them will also strengthen innovation. Reform to the patent system to eliminate frivolous patents easily and make it easier to submit legitimate ones could also go a long way towards encouraging innovation.

Small Businesses Drive America Forward
Small businesses give America its strong entrepreneurial spirit and drive the economy forward. According to the small business administration, (SBA), small businesses account for 99.9 percent of the businesses in America. Though many of these businesses fail, they still account for many new jobs. Since many small businesses are startups, they often hire in recessions. Though not huge on their own, collectively small businesses make up a potent force. In addition, small businesses drive innovation forward, gaining 13 times as many patents as large firms, according to the SBA
Environmental Protection
Setting away land and sea area as preserves is very important in preserving our nation’s natural wonders. These areas should be maintained and wildlife in them studied to help us better understand the world we live in. Funding for this can come from entrance fees as well as some from taxes. With preserves set up, we can keep our wide variety of wildlife so all can experience and enjoy the beauty of nature.
The American landscape is beautiful, and has been cherished for generations. Our forests, our mountains, our prairies. Our landscape is unique and should be protected for posterity. This is the way our land was. This is the way it should be kept. Our wilderness serve as beacons for stewardship of the environment, illustrating all the beauty that the Earth has.

More on Foreign Policy
Instability in many nations leads to an influx in terrorists. In order to combat this, we look at the root cause, so that we may hope to understand why this is happening.
Instead of intruding into other countries, we must respect their sovereignty and push for reform. In many instances, there are cruel dictators that will not reform or negotiate. Conflict might be inevitable, no matter how much negotiation goes on. Intervention will occur, but what then? Before going in, powers need to have a game-plan on what will happen afterwards. Concrete planning and collaboration with the locals on how to make their lives better and more peaceful is needed. Nation-building is often frowned upon as policy, yet this may be needed. Military action with no back end involvement will lead to the destruction of order in a country, bring the nation, and consequently the entire region, into chaos.
We need to work with the people of other countries, planning for strong, open, effective governments, accountable to the people, and free of corruption.
