Dear John, The promise of America lies in the people of America, and nowhere is this more evident than in the success of our nation’s athletes. It’s easy to be caught up in the total number of medals our country won this year. It’s harder to remember that behind every medal is a friend, neighbor, or family member who is the epitome of dedication, perseverance, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Their sacrifice on the grandest stage is also a reminder of the everyday victories you—and they—achieve when you start a family, buy a home, or launch a business. The bottom line: At AFP, the dreams of everyday Americans are just as important as Olympic athletes—and we love cheering on these victories, too. However, achieving these dreams has become increasingly difficult due to bad economic policy. Everyone has a unique version of the American Dream, whether it's going for gold while representing the USA, growing a small business, starting a family or moving to a friendly neighborhood... AFP wants to empower every American to reach their full potential. That's why we fight every day to expand freedom and opportunity. We want to hear from you! Please share with us what your American Dream is and also what steps you think our country needs to take to make that dream possible. |
