American Dreams

  • The idea of the American Dream is woven through this country's politics, music and culture. It suggests a belief that hard work pays off, and that children will have a better life than their parents. But as the effects of the economic downturn continue to reverberate, many feel the American Dream is in jeopardy.
  • We want to know what the American Dream means to you, whether it's barbecues with the neighbors, volunteering, or enjoying your garden, your business or your place of worship.
