Some of you know me well; others of you who will receive this may not even know me at all. I want to let you know I am first and foremost an American. I believe in the greatness of the American People and this Country. I believe that our politicians continue to divide us intentionally along party lines, because they know that if they can only keep us divided, then we will never unite on the principles that connect us. I want to begin to help change that. We are Americans! White, Black, Red, Yellow, it doesn’t matter what the color of our skin is, as Dr. Martin Luther King said it should be the content of one’s character. I believe in our character. I refuse to accept that the greatest, most innovative, most prosperous country on the face of the Earth is on the edge of meltdown.
I know you feel it. I know you feel that our politicians (Republican, Democrat, and Independents) no longer listen to WE THE PEOPLE. And you know what? To a large degree you are correct. And that is exactly what they want from us. They don’t want us to pay attention to what they are doing, what kinds of laws they pass, how much, and what kind of things OUR money purchases and supports. We are simply to fall in line because they know better than we do how to spend OUR money.
They need us, oh yes they need us, every two or four years when they need campaign contributions and volunteers to get the vote out so they can go back to city hall, the state capital, the nation’s capital, and “do the work of the people”.
Well I have news for you, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!! There are more and more people everyday who are waking up to the reality that our government no longer answers to us! The government actually does work for us. That is the way the constitution set it up. WE THE PEOPLE may have been ignored or forgotten in Washington, but We have not forgotten to whom they answer.
Below are 9 principles. Read them and if you agree with 7 of them, follow the link at the bottom of the list. Read the website and then, if you read it and feel that you can do what it talks about.
But above all if you agree email this to all your family members and friends. We are not alone and as the website says soon we will find out just how un-alone we really are.
The Nine Principles
1. America is good.
2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
