What Is Would Ask Our Founding Fathers





authors note:I wrote this essay to some what is would like to ask the founding fathers of the USA.

I want to ask the founding father some questions on what choices they made long ago. The founding father where  John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and  George Washington. There is a lot of them that made many of the choices that we live with today.
The first question I would want to ask the founding father is, why did they pick the beloved eagle to be the national bird? Why didn’t they pick the turkey, the duck, or the robin? You see Robins  everywhere you go, in peoples trees and on farms all over the U.S. The turkey is one of the things that I see a lot in the morning on the way to school. I have seen at least 40 turkeys, and that is a lot of birds to see at one time. Lastly, the duck is a common bird too, I see ducks on the way to the store in small bodies of water all the time. Just a couple of days ago I saw 20 duck on the way home from my brother’s football game.
Onto the second question. I would ask them if they are happy or sad about what choices they had to make about this Nation. I would be happy because, we have the freedom of speech in this country. Also I know that I am safe because of all the protection that we have in this country. I also want to thank them for the bill of rights. They are the first ten amendments to the U.S constitution.
These are a few question that I would like to the founding fathers. They made a lot of good choices a long time ago. They made them in the best interest of all the people of this Nation.  Most of their choices, they made a long time ago, are still being followed today.

Niagara fall was a un trip when we got there we when to go check in to are hotel. Then we when back to Niagara fall and took some phonographs. There was a lot of people from china. My mom got mad because they creped walking to t he picture.

After all of that we when back to the hotel  for an half  hour. Then we when to the hard rock cafĂ© to eat dinner. When  we got sited we order are food it was really good. When we when to the falls and watched the light show. It was very cool to watch.

The next day we when back to the falls for the main of the mist and stuff like that. When we got there we walked around the falls for a little bit. Then we walk to the places where you walk really close to the bottom of the falls. Me my dad and brothers then to the top deck it was a lot of fun.

The we when to the main on the mist boat ride it was a lot of fun because they take you right close to the fall. That is my trip the to the great Niagara falls.
