America: The Land of Opportunities

A person of Indian origin becomes a governor of a state; another woman is the CEO of PepsiCo, yet another goes to the space station, yet another becomes the President of a major public University in Texas. Only in America it is possible. I doubt if these people would have had the same opportunity in the country of their origin. A Barak Obama aspires to be the President of this land, a Hispanic becomes the Attorney general, an immigrant from Austria becomes the governor of California, and there are many such examples of rise to prominence of many personalities of diverse national origin or heritage in this land of opportunities. America offers "the" opportunity to excel if one is willing to try. In spite of all the problems we encounter it is still the land of opportunity and people flock to this land even to this day for life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. So, don’t bother about the ignorant that tend to label people in a stereotypical way because of their looks or accent or dress or religious beliefs. They do not understand America or forget what America is all about.
