Every generation of Americans has to fight for our democracy the American dream of life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness. Maintaining our system of
individual freedoms is not easy and it's not free. It
requires a continued effort to maintain and grow it in
adherence to the principles on which it was founded. But
the unraveling of the fabric of our society and pervasive corruption
is choking our nation and undermining our freedoms.
Action must be taken or more of our rights will slip
through the cracks.
The very founding of the United States was based on rebellion
against oppression and suppression of individual rights
by the British government. Subsequently, the two governing
documents of our country, the Declaration of Independence
and the Constitution, were crafted to ensure and protect
those very rights. We must be a generation that reads,
believes, and defends these crucial documents.
