~The+American+Dream~+Reflection

In America it seems people have always have some idea in their head about what it means to be an America. A lot of the time this image also signifies an American dream that is chased after by every generation. This dream has transformed over time and can even differ from person to person. The question remains whether this dream will actually bring people true happiness? Should nice houses and perfect family portiats over the fireplace lead to a persons happiness? Should men compete in the stock market to get rick quick? Should women form to the cult of true womenhood when many feel they can do work like a man? Walt Whitman take the American complex into account when writing his poem "America" which describes the many characteristics making up the people of the US.

Would you change yourself to fit a dream?
