The American Dream does have it's basic meaning on what it is to the public, but it also can have it's individual meaning to the specific person. In a way, having the specific dream for what that person wants is what is expected out of what the American Dream really is. In that sense, that is the stereotype dream. Obviously people have their own personal "dream" that they wish to reach, but the thing that makes the American Dream different from a regular dream is that here in America you can achieve what you truely want to do and not only what your country will allow.
