So many refugees who fled their mother countries and came to this new continent, how could they love this country so firmly? What exactly can this young country fulfill for them? In a country that puts personal rights above all, loving America must be conditional—what are those conditions? In this commercial and contractual society of the United States, what kind of transaction and contract exists between the nation and the individual? What is the foundation and cornerstone of this nation's founding? What kind of personality do the citizens and the government of this country have? What are the characteristics of their society? What does this country admire, and what does it avoid? What are the achievements and failures, contributions and shortcomings of this country?
