Remember what the Statue of Liberty stands for

Like the Statue of Liberty, we really need to stand firm in the values that made America great to begin with.
Remember, she cries: 'Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
Most certainly, this is what makes America great - our willingness and God-given ability to help all others in need.
We must remain a loving and compassionate nation to truly enlighten others because all people everywhere are equal.
