Are you satisfied?

Our America was started by educated men that had lived under a monarchy, ruled by a king or queen that had power over them. They came here to worship their creator as they saw fit. They refused to bow to the edict that the king/queen were the head of the church. They probably had some very hot discussions as to what form of government they wanted, before settling on a constitutional republic.

This same form of government is today under attack by those who want to change it into something else. Today, we have a president that has stated “the Constitution is a negative document,” telling us what we cannot do. The leftists are slowly taking us toward socialism, where the government has all control over all aspects of your life. They can tell you what you can do, when to do it, where to live and how much you will earn. You will be totally dependent on the government and the thousands of faceless unaccountable bureaucrats who will have no interest in you as an individual, you will just be a case number so that they can keep their position. Sound familiar?

Obama and his minions have sped us on this route and (in my opinion) the Democrat’s top Presidential candidates will continue the same policies.

Right now we are afloat on a rudderless ship of state, as our Constitution is not being followed. What can we all do?

Become educated, look beyond the smoke screen of the sound bites on TV and radio. Don’t just vote a straight party ticket, vote for the person who will follow the Constitution. Be very diligent and learn where the person stands. You do have the power to change the course of history. Remember your children, gran children and great grand children are being saddled with debt they cannot pay off.
