Posted on 12/15/2007 11:37:37 AM PST by Live Free NH

After being a Legal Permanent U.S. Resident for the past 35 years (Canadian citizen /my hubby is U.S. citizen by birth), yesterday December 14, 2007, I was sworn in as a U.S. CITIZEN at the U.S. District Court in Concord, NH !! I am SO PROUD and SO EXCITED !!

93 new citizens were sworn in from 33 different countries! It was a WONDERFUL ceremony ! Every nationality you could imagine was represented !

Within 3 hours of getting sworn in, I went to my local Town Hall and REGISTERED TO VOTE ! So I will be "good to go" for the New Hampshire Primary on January 8th ! whooo-hooo !!!

“Nevertheless I have to say as being a German I could not imagine giving up my German citizenship for becoming American. I do not say that I am content with everything in my country but it is the place were I have my roots in all regards. Therefore I have to say that the US are a nation I keep warm and good feelings for, but America will never be the place where I want to be a citizen. It is a matter of love for the origin. Therefore we Germans call our country “Vaterland” (Father’s Land).”

I lived in Germany for four years, and two of my children were born there. It is a beautiful country, with many nice people. Nevertheless, I could never become a German citizen. In fact, the more I saw of the country, the more I understood why my great, great, grandfather left, and came to America. There is room in the world for many differences, and Germany has many things to recommend it, but America is home for me, despite its warts. I imagine your feelings for your home are much as mine are for my home. I have ancestors who fought in the Revolutionary War, and others like Grandpa Max, the son of my G’G’Grandfather, who brought the rest of the family over to join his father in their new home in the last days of the 19th Century. There is room enough for us all.
