AUDACITY TO BE PROUD OF AMERICA !

IT IS IN RETURN TO OUR AMERICAN ETERNAL TRUTHS
THAT WE HAVE CHANGE !

Change - to correct my friend, CHANGE is the
AUDACITY TO BE PROUD OF AMERICA !

Change - My friend assumes the cloak of MLK.
But it's like he forgot - AMERICANS' DEEDS.
Americans' deeds of Change - the love of our Constitution that gave us
the Commandment to create civil equality.
Americans' deeds of Change - the love of our Declaration that gave us
the courage and strength to admit a wrong.
Americans' deeds of Change - the belief in the essential goodness of America
that gave us the courage and strength to CHANGE IT.

BE PROUD . HAVE FAITH IN OURSELVES AS AMERICANS.
We have done what no other peoples in history have done.

CHANGE BY RETURNING

We mutually pledge to each other -
"Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed";
- AND NOT THE OTHER WAY 'ROUND.

We mutually pledge to each other - our fortunes.
WORK
- it's time to put America back to work.
-and the time is now.

-And how do we do it? (to paraphrase)
- IT'S PRODUCTION, stupid !
- making things.
- it's not just services, services.
- And it's business that puts people back to work.
Small business, big business, any kind of business, but the business of producing things.
-and the time is now, now, now !

We mutually pledge to each other –
- it’s time to free America from foreign domination by oil
- we will harness nature’s renewable gifts
- and the time is now.

We mutually pledge to each other – our lives
- do no harm to each other
- the right of the people to be secure in their homes.
- we will save our homes
- and the time is now.

-the right of the people to be secure in their homes.
- we will save our kids from drugs.
- and the time is now.

We mutually pledge to each other – our sacred honor
- TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE NO RIGHTS WITHOUT RESPONSIBILITIES
- IT IS ONLY WHEN WE TAKE UP RESPONSIBILITIES FOR OURSELVES AND OUR COMMUNITY THAT WE UPHOLD RIGHTS
- IT IS ONLY IN THE EXERCISE OF RESPONSIBILITY AND RIGHTS THAT WE UPHOLD OUR FREEDOM
- and that time is always.
- and that time is now.


We mutually pledge to each other –
- our right to live in peace and security
- and banish Islamic imperialism
- and the time is now.

We mutually pledge to each other -
- to honor
“The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated America.”

We – you and I
We - America
We – Americans
Know that Change comes by a return to our eternal truths
- To our faith in ourselves as Americans

So We together, let us resolve – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of FAITH .
– and that government of the people, by the people, for the people; and our life, liberty and happiness shall not perish from the earth.
