We are at a critical decision point in our country. Our American Revolution stemmed from the colonist's belief that taxes should be approved by the people. By nature the settlers were strong, independent, and forward thinking.
Our Constitution and Bill of Rights represents months of hard and frustrating work by men who understood the importance of getting every word and phrase to reflect the beliefs of the creators.
Because of the freedoms and rights given to our citizens our country grew and prospered unlike any before it.
Religious freedom, exploration, entrepreneurship, individual rights, military security, inventions, and medical advancements were results of this unique country. This is not just our perception, the rest of the world held us up as an inspiration.
We can disagree about when and why we have gone astray from the foundations on which were built.
We can even disagree about whether the straying is good or bad. There is no question, however, that there is a movement to change the very things that made us great.
With the successful candidacy of Bernie Sanders, we must face to possibility of becoming a Socialist country.
That is a fact. So, what will it be America?
