Responsibility: John Adams, Wilbur And Orville Wright

Fisher Ames was one of the great founding fathers who helped start the United States of America. Although citizens today may not hear or know much about him he is as much a part of the history of this nation as other more known men such as Thomas Jefferson. Ames was a good man who did not want conflict and enjoyed the simple things in life. This is seen in the following quote: “…in his distaste for publick diversions, and his preference of simple pleasures” (Ames 1809, page ix). All in all, fisher Ames had an interesting background, important views on Christianity and the Bible and how they relate to government, as well as equally important views on government in general.

We all share a common responsibility in the success of the land of the free. It is our upmost duty to allow our brothers and sisters around us to feel welcome and safe of the worlds they are running from. As an American citizen, I hold up my responsibility by allowing myself to become aware and appreciative of the cultures around me. As members of Congress, the American people look up to you to be our voices through your legislative actions. Each and every

Ellis defines the relationship between Adam and Jefferson; They bickered a lot, but in the end they reunited. Rebellion demonstrated how weak it was when it went up against politics. Political, cultural, and religious beliefs divided the Americans; War was not a very strong issue at the time.

The duty of government is described in John Adams as to, “inculcate the principles of humanity, charity, industry, frugality, honesty, sincerity.” (224) In summation, the government’s ideals ought to be to instill virtue to its citizens with persistent instruction. However, Politics takes command of government when men disagree on when, how, and to what extent those virtues ought to be instilled. Politics controls people, which brings a motivation for corruption; and at the same time, people control politics, allowing that corruption to become manifest. However, politics cannot be corrupt on it’s own, rather through its composition of men and their thoughts contributes to its corruption. Politics will only be corrupt if those composing it

As an American citizen, I am responsible to ensure that all people are treated equally. I will always be impacted by those surrounding me. Basically, there are two principles of equality granted to all Americans: equality of justice and equality of franchise. No citizen should be accused of something because of a leader or judge’s bias. Also, every American has the right to vote. If I notice a citizen being treated unfairly, I am responsible to speak on their behalf to protect this

We have the Bill of Rights, what we need is a bill of responsibilities. ~ Bill Maher. Everyone in the world has responsibilities, and as Americans we have our responsibilities as well. America is a land of freedom, by following our responsibilities we can keep the nation as great as it is. If we do not, however we will become far less free than we are now. We just take advantage of the rights we are given and we definitely do not stop to think about how they got there, and how many people had to die to give them to us.

“True Patriotism springs from a belief in the dignity of the individual, freedom and equality not only for Americans but for all people on Earth, universal brotherhood and good will, and a constant and earnest striving toward the principles and ideals on which this country was founded.” This is a snippet from Eleanor Roosevelt’s Book of Common Sense Etiquette. This line describes what I believe my responsibility to America is. We, as American citizens, have a responsibility to be good people.

Everyone has dreams that they want to achieve, whether that dream is to be the next man on the moon or to simply travel to a new place and discover amazing things. In order to achieve those aspiring dreams though, I have to be ambitious and responsible. A person that just expects things to happen is in for a rude awakening because dreams do not just instantly happen like microwavable popcorn, they are sought using determination. America thrives on dreamers. Dreamers seek to make America a better place. I am a dreamer. I dream each and every day that I will wake up and make America a better place. Everybody has a responsibility to America. No matter how old I am, how inexperienced I am at doing new things, I still have to get up and try because

Although America has made great advances in accepting all citizens as equals, America has yet to entirely descend the “mountain”, and navigate the Promised Land of freedom and companionship. The fact that America has yet to cross over into the Promised Land is due to the fact that Americans stop at a mere tolerance, and fail to establish camaraderie with people of different religions and ethnicities. In order to navigate the Promised Land, American citizens must view each other as equals and ensure the liberties and justices of all. By word of Moses and Martin Luther King, Americans must be aware of the fact that all people are equal, and that no individuals deserve to be treated as less than an equal due to their beliefs or race. By living

Despite not single handedly ending prejudice with a small revolution, even the most seemingly small results provide advancement in the road toward social and systematic innovation. One of these results includes educating others and bringing awareness to the situation and problem at hand, so that citizens would ‘not be on the side of the executioners’. An example of using peace to effectively spread a message that would not only have a huge effect on obliterating the national discrimination of its time but as well being honored and remembered for decades after would be Martin Luther King Jr’s iconic ‘I Have A Dream’ speech on August 28, 1963. A century after slavery was outlawed, and nevertheless African-Americans were still regarded as less by the white American government, who allowed discrimination, separation, and exclusion everywhere - schools, water fountains, buses - between the races to be legal. Being an African-American man himself, King would not tolerate this. Rather than succumbing to violent measures in order to get his message to end racial discrimination instead, he used words as his force and in doing so educated and inspired thousands to contribute toward attempting to make a change in the nation. People are the product of what they are taught - even the most obstinate can be influenced, especially during this time period and

Everyone faces challenges at one point, and we all have found a way to accomplish them. Even people from the1300s faced problems. Orville and Wilbur Wright experienced difficulties while creating the Flyer 1. One of the difficulties they faced was nature, they also faced time and malfunctioning airplane parts. All are very hard on together.

Have you ever been on a plane and wondered how that airplane came to be, or did you ever wondered who invented your aeroplane? In aviation, the Wright brothers were the most influential people. One may think, ‘who are the wright brothers’, and why they thought about making the very first aeroplane, aeroplane is a British term for airplane. Might you wonder how many blueprints, (papers explaining the design), Or what the obstacles were, Maybe you’d wonder what Wilbur Wright’s perspective was, towards working on the first aeroplane with his brother Orville, Maybe you might only care about the mechanics or development ideas.

The Wilbur and Orville Wright are some of the biggest names in aviation history. Because of those brothers, we are able to fly anywhere in the world. It is easy to see how much impact they have had on the world of aviation. This essay will focus on their lives, accomplishments, and the many ways they have changed the world of aviation.

This responsibility includes those of the personal and social nature. On a personal level, we have to take care of ourselves and stay healthy and happy individuals. Socially I strongly believe in the saying, do unto others, as you would like them to do unto you. Abiding by this rule helps society to operate as smoothly as possible without too much conflict. Besides, it is not worth any minute of our shirt lifetime to be unhappy or rude. We as humans are able to make conscious, individual choice and take responsibility for our actions, beliefs, feelings and attitudes. And I believe that we need to exercise these abilities.

A wise American poet and peace advocate, Mattie Stepanek, once said, “Unity is strength… where there is teamwork and collaboration, great things can be achieved.” Since the human kind, the world has been suffering from each other. Rather than working together as a team like what Stepanek reveals, individuals are tearing each other apart. There are ongoing wars, threats, and fights for justice that hasn’t been resolved for decades. Every morning, America wakes up with a new threat from countries like North Korea. In addition, women are still being treated poorly compared to the men after nearly one hundred years. It is safe to say anger, fear, and greed are the roots of all of these problems proving the division of this world.
