September 2017 – “Make America great again!” was shouted by thousands in 2016, and in a recent survey, Barna asked Americans what they thought actually makes America great.

One in four Americans answered “The American Dream” or “Opportunity to become who you want to be.” Tied for second at 20% were “The Constitution” and “Free Speech.” “Freedom of Religion” and “Democracy” were tied for third. Ten other great things about America were listed, including the Bill of Rights, a varied ethnic society, Christian roots, a strong military, technology, natural beauty, industrious spirit, the arts, economic stability, and the nation’s relative youth.

Surveyed Evangelicals believe “Freedom of Religion” and “Christian Origins and Values” are the greatest aspects of the United States.
