I am very concerned that the socialist-leaning Liberals within our Federal Government and news outlets are leading us down the path to the complete loss of all Individual Liberty in the United States of America. I literally cry real tears in my observance of the death of our Constitution and the Liberty it provides. I sit alone in the quiet of my study, as I am now, and do my utmost to understand why, why are the American people seemingly so willing just to watch, and in many cases, actually embrace the death of their own Individual Liberty, their God given right to make their own decisions and be responsible for themselves.
The greatest possession a human being has is Liberty, the freedom to think and act and be responsible for ourselves without the oppression and regulations of an all-powerful, unlimited government. For more than two hundred years, we in America have been blessed with our God-given Liberty. It has now become our most abused, neglected, and ignored possession. The men who founded our nation did so based on the belief that the government's primary purpose was to protect and defend individual liberty.
The actual founding was establishing a federal government, limited in its power and ruled by a Constitution and Bill of Rights. Benjamin Franklin realized and understood that the only thing that could preserve it or lose it was the people themselves. That understanding was evident in his reply to a reporter when asked upon his emergence from the Constitutional Convention Hall, "What have you done in there?" His reply was, "We have given you a Republic if YOU can keep it." I would ask you to now stop reading and sit back in your chair, close your eyes for a moment and think deeply about his answer.
From that founding moment, the struggle between the government's authority and the citizens' right to Individual Liberty has never stopped. Over the course of time in that struggle, we have allowed Individual Liberty to be sacrificed on the altar of government provision and entitlements. We have now placed ourselves in a position where the Liberty that our founders envisioned and gave us is barely recognizable. Through the current leadership of Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and others behind the scenes, we are on the precipice, teetering on the edge of losing what little liberty we have left.
My dear, dear friends, we are allowing our government to return us to a life of bondage. We must begin fighting back and save ourselves from returning to the deep, dark cavern of slavery to the government. That is exactly what Donald Trump was saying when he raised his fist, with blood streaming down his face after being shot, and said, "fight," "fight," "fight." We are not losing our Liberty from one huge chop of an ax, but the slices of a thousand cuts of the sharp razor of Socialism.
Even if we can take it back, it will not be done overnight, but we must begin. If we don't, I have a great fear that WE will have failed to "keep it," and it will be gone from our lives forever. A huge step can be taken to "keep it" by electing Donald Trump as our president come November 5, only 4 short months from now.
