Much has been written and said about September 11, 2001, on the occasion of its 10th anniversary, but one story much less known is the one about the band of boats that came together to rescue nearly 500,000 New Yorkers from the World Trade Center site on the day the towers collapsed.It was the largest boatlift ever to have happened – greater than the one at Dunkirk during World War II. Yet somehow a story of such large scale became lost in all the rubble. But a new 10-minute documentary called Boatlift by Eddie Rosenstein captures the boat evacuations that happened on 9/11.
American Exceptionalism has little if anything to do with the Humans that make up our citizenry, because Americans come from almost every ethnic group found in the World.
An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.
This 'IS' American Exceptionalism!
"Though our president has labeled Americans as soft, I believe our people have toughed it out the best they can." Rick Perry

We ARE the American People and WE WILL SURVIVE Barack Obama!
