America the beautiful, Stars and Stripes forever, I'm proud to be an American. Those are just a few popular songs that American musicians have dedicated their time to show their nationalism toward USA. The Statue of Liberty, the Bald Eagle, the Liberty Bell, the US flag, Mount Rushmore are just some of the symbols of this amazing country. Who wouldn't want to be a part of this wonderful nation? Here we have democracy, you have rights and a say in how your country will be run. Doesn't everyone want that? We don't only try to make our country better but we also try to help others in order to make this world a better place. Our foreign policy is containment. We want to contain the bad communism inside those communist countries, so that we can spare those small countries the horror of trying to live in a communist world. We knew that we could not slip up on this task because the USA believed in the Domino effect and how if one more country became communist, all of the rest would come crashing down. In order to achieve these goals, the Truman Doctrine, Eisenhower Doctrine, and the Marshall plan were put into effect. So, the United States wanted to share the love and spread democracy.
