A Post-9/11 Message for My Fellow Americans

If America fails …. if America falls .... the world will become a dark and evil place.

December 7, 1941 told us and September 11, 2001 reminded us that we are vulnerable to sneak attacks from those who wish to destroy us. Our strength, our common purpose have saved us. Now, the most dangerous sneak attack of all, creeping modern liberal socialism, and its well-planned distractions, attacks us from within; it divides us and makes us weak.

America is in jeopardy. The vision of our founders is threatened. We must revitalize our common purpose and the enduring strength that flows from it. We must regain and protect the sovereignty of the individual. We must unleash the rejuvenating forces of personal responsibility and the free market. We must reverse the growth of government and shrink it to its legitimate role: protecting the lives and rights and property of its citizens, through the courts, the police, and the military.

We must be vigilant. We must stay strong. We must not fail.

America is the impetus for liberty and prosperity in this world ... but it is also our home.

May God continue to bless the United States of America. May her citizens accept their individual responsibility for America's future. May each of us assess our strengths, our interests, our personal resources, then build and implement a personal plan to do our part to return the country we love to the greatness of which she is so capable, guided by reason and by the wisdom laid down in the writings of America's founding fathers.
