"As this long and difficult war ends, I would like to address a few special words to the American people: Your steadfastness in supporting our insistence on peace with honor has made peace with honor possible."
A quote by President Nixon in a speech he gave when he was President.


This video is showing the spread of America's impact on the world-
 truley showing how much of a super power the US is compared to the other countries.
