To Be... Won, or Not To Be...Won.

How did we win the Revolutionary War?  Why did we win the Revolutionary War?  Well, some of the reasons are...(and as follows)

1. Turf Yo!
2. We Gon' Win!
3. George Washington Be Bein' Good Leader!
4. Help From Abroad!

(a song composed by Megan Ashleman and Morganne Yambrovich)

We won because of our dedication to our country, our willingness to die for what is right, our belief in ourselves, then there are also the obvious reasons.  We knew the land very well.  For this was our land that we have lived on and we knew the forests, the streams, the lakes very well.  We also had good leaders like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.  some other reasons for are win are that we believed in ourselves with a little help from Thomas Paine, and we had help from the French and Spanish.

I think the most compelling reason for our victory is our belief in ourselves and the way we didn't give up.  I think the most modern example is the thing that happened in Africa.  I do not know it that well but there was this man from Africa who fought against the mean government and then they won and he became president.  This is a modern example of our victory because we and they fought for freedom, won , and then got a president.  And I bet that the colonial victory helped inspire them in the search for freedom.
