Do you ever think about what's gone wrong?

Many's the time I've been mistaken

And many times confused

Yes, and I've often felt forsaken

And certainly misused

Oh, but I'm all right, I'm all right

I'm just weary to my bones

Still, you don't expect to be

Bright and bon vivant

So far away from home, so far away from home



And I don't know a soul who's not been battered

I don't have a friend who feels at ease

I don't know a dream that's not been shattered

or driven to its knees

but it's all right, it's all right

for we lived so well so long

Still, when I think of the

road we're traveling on

I wonder what's gone wrong

I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong



And I dreamed I was dying

I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly

And looking back down at me

Smiled reassuringly

And I dreamed I was flying

And high up above my eyes could clearly see

The Statue of Liberty

Sailing away to sea

And I dreamed I was flying



We come on the ship they call the Mayflower

We come on the ship that sailed the moon

We come in the age's most uncertain hours

and sing an American tune

Oh, and it's alright, it's all right, it's all right

You can't be forever blessed

Still, tomorrow's going to be another working day

And I'm trying to get some rest

That's all I'm trying to get some rest

Do you ever think about what's gone wrong?

What is it with you European Americans? One lady was bragging her?

fore fathers came over on the mayflower. They were the first ones to come to America.

Big deal I told her mine was here to welcome them.

What is it with you European Americans? One lady was bragging her?
When America was "founded" it really wasn't lost. The TRUE Americans were the various American Indian tribes who already inhabited the land and even showed the settlers how to live off it. In essence it's just another false claim in this country's tainted history.
Reply:If that is all you have to gripe about.....you are doing very well. Solve some of the more serious problems and you will be chopping tall cotton. Pops
Reply:that beatch doesn't know her history, because the mayflower wasn't first!
Reply:We are looking for roots in a country for which 'we' are relative newcomers. And the Mayflower is as far back as it gets, I suppose.
Reply:funny that the mayflower never actually hit mainland soil huh.
Reply:Who cares? You would still be living in a bark hut eating raw liver if it weren't for Europeans.
Reply:My mom says what you said too.


Martin family history?

I'm trying to research if i'm related to the Sussana (North) Martin that was involved with the Salem Witch Trials. Interesting stuff...She was married to George, son of Christopher Martin and Marie Prower. Needing help finding out who's Christophers Father. I can find out that Christopher wasn't a very nice man, and that he was in charge of getting supplies for a trip on the Mayflower. My paternal line is Dean - Frank - Charles - Asa - Sylvester - Seth - Seth - Ephriam. Also could use help finding more on that line too. Most of my family was from Grafton, NH and Rehopboth/Swansea Mass.

Martin family history?

have Christopher. They say his father is Simon Martin. Some of them have notes and sources, some don't.

What were the names (first and last) of the first pilgrims who came from England?

When did they arrive? Who was the captain of the group? Who was the pastor? When was the first Magna Carta written? What is the Magna Carta? How is it different from the Mayflower Compact? What food did the first pilgrims like to eat? What food did they have when they arrived at Plymouth Rock? Why didn't they travel further south? Where can I find a really informative book on the pilgrims?

I don't know that Yale or Buckingham Palace are product placement, per se. I mean, they're cultural institutions as well, and as for London cabs - well, the dudes have to get around don't they?



That being said - what was the brand of bottled water they were splashing all over the Black Hills? Aquafina?
Reply:The scene where Ed Harris reveals the missing page is filmed in the George Washington Masonic Memorial. Does that count?

WHY is it that the US thinks that it is the most powerful/wonderful nation on the face of the earth?

As someome who was born here in the US (actually my genes go back itteally to the Mayflower), Why should we feel superioer to all others in the world? Does this sounf like Germany 1938?

WHY is it that the US thinks that it is the most powerful/wonderful nation on the face of the earth?
Well, we are the world's superpower both militarily and economically, but we should use that power responsibly instead of arrogantly, otherwise we will lose it. That is why the British empire fell, because it overstepped its bounds.
Reply:You both need some more koolaid Report It
Reply:Because we are an arrogant, selfish, crude, cruel %26amp; power-hungry nation.



It is very unfortunate the US will happily help foreigners, yet the residents who live here have a very hard time getting some form of temporary help from the government.
Reply:I don't feel it is a matter of feeling superior to all others in the world. The fact that we enjoy many freedoms that others do not. Gives us a different out look. Our form of government, gives anyone born here the opportunity to advance to the office of the Presidency. It also protects the person that wants to stand on the corner and decry that very form of government. With out fear of disappearing, never to be heard from again. We can travel from one end of our country to another. Without needing travel documents. We as Americans know we have rights. Know that our fore fathers, fought and died for them. We know that we live in a land of laws. That we had a hand in creating and can change. I have traveled all over the world and have seen first hand. How other countries treat their subjects. I am always happiest when I return home.
Reply:Well, that's really two questions--



a) as to being themost powerful: we have the biggest economy and the most guns. That, as they say, is that.



b) being the best is another matter--and its a sbjective matter. America is my home and as far as I'm concerned, its the best place on earth.



BUT--where I part dcompany absoluutely withthe nationalists is this: I do not feel any need to make derogatory remarks about other countries. Those people have different ways ofdoing things-and they love their homes jsut as we in America love ours. We can criticize things their governments do wrong--but that is not the same as running down their culture. And--we aren't perfect either, muh as I wish we were.



People who feel the need to be "superior" to others only demonstrate that they are inferior.
Reply:don't worry, very soon China will surpass the USA economically, and it's all downhill for the Christian bigots from there
Reply:Because in America freedom is important - even if we have to fight for it; some may try to trample it from time to time, but it is the strength of spirit in the American people that make this country a wonderful country. We are a nation of generous people who have helped other nations worldwide, and have offerred our expertise in the field of medicine and education to all who want to come here and take advantage of the assets we have built. We are the direct opposite of Germany 1938. Why do you think we have an immigration problem? People want to come here - but they don't want to leave. I wouldn't say that was true when Hitler came to town.
Reply:I love America because of the freedoms we have and all of those (past,present, and future) who have fought and continue to fight for our freedoms everyday. Everyday is a new opportunity for something. You can be with the one you love, hang out with anyone you like, apply for any job, speak your mind, travel anywhere..... sing, dance, practice any religion. I'm not saying that I feel like I am better than anyone because I am an American. I just feel very blessed and fortunate that I am one.
Reply:Nope.



We make better choices.



We are better.



We have a responsibility to see that other people have the same opportunities.



Don't deny the obvious.
Reply:The USA has the most Nukes and can beat anyone up.
Reply:Well it is the most powerful it terms of miltary... If your genes go back to the mayflower your ancestors must have known Mr. George W. Bush's ancestors... perhaps. Both my parents are from India and well they don't know famous people. But back to you question. It's cause Americans have the world showcased to them in an "Americancentric" perspective, they are usually taught the positives of America and the negative aspects are downplayed. Also instead of trying to improve the bad aspects of the nations, other negative aspects of other nations are tageted and exploited to bolster a stronger domestic image. In doing so people inadvertently forget about the problems at home and only remember the good stuff. And no America does not sound like Nazi Germany. America has many good people, unfortunately the bad ones run the federal government now. Best wishes for your nation in 2009.
Reply:Well.....america was the most powerfull nation...but now i highly doubt it. Clinton made the military a lot smaller, Bush made that little military go to Iraq and Afghanistan...is there peace? no. Will there ever be? no. America has bigger problems that terrorism. like the economy. its going down to ****. The dollar becoms weaker, the euro stronger. Its sad to see this happen to what once was one of the greatest nations in the world. Now its just full of violence, hate, and many uneducated people. It proves that you cant live in paradise forever. Wait till the gas prices go up again.....or when there is no more gas. Good bye trucks and SUVs. The world is changing and the usa isnt following. poor judgement, bad leaders, lazy people, has put america on a downward path.
Reply:Perhaps because it is? There are flights and ships leaving the country every day, and I bet there is a place for you. You might try Cuba, Iran, or some other country more to your liking. I'm sure they would appreciate and seek your glowing advice and wisdom.
