My final position statements says, What America surely needs now is a return to those

original ideals that have been the source of her greatness. Americas need, and the worlds
need, today, is a new burst of American pioneering, and this time not just within the confines of
a single continent but all around the globe.-Arnold Toynbee, and a picture that represents that
everything the US originally stood for is the picture of Uncle Sam. He is the perfect symbol or
representative of what Mr. Arnold Toynbee is trying to say in this quote. Uncle Sam is a symbol
of patriotism and was used for recruiting citizens to join the army during World War 1. He also
was a personified version of the US government and stood for the original beliefs of what the
founding fathers put in place for America. The picture of Uncle Sam is a great symbol of what
Mr.Toynbee is trying to say within his quote.
