Description
Dear America:<br>My family and I left Irani in 1979 because we were being persecuted.<br>We were luck to be able to emigrate to America where my parents could make a better life for us.<br>To me, that is what America stands for: liberty and freedom, no matter what your color or religion is.<br>Yes, it is important to protect this country, but it should remain a safe haven for people who are being persecuted to come here and have a peaceful life. I wish there was a candidate that was a mix of everyone: Trump and Bernie and Cruz and Hillary. Keep the terrorists out, yes, but let the refugees come in and have a peaceful life.<br>We need to fight ISIS. Christians and Jews and Muslims are persecuted. Give Syrian, Iraqi -all refugees a chance, and keep the US safe.
