The cool thing though is that you can teach your kids all the great things about this country. I've sat down and read the Constitution with my kid and I've even dragged my young one to city council meetings and explained to them what was going on.

I like Fred Thompson. He reminds me more of Reagan sometimes than anyone else.

And there you have the answer to all the madness. Our kids are with us for all their pre school years. Take that time to teach them about God, your religion, beliefs, righ and wrong, good and bad, and teach them about the flag. Have them go out with mom and dad each day and night to raise and lower the flag. Let them do it. Have they run it up and then bring to half staff when applicable so they know half is to honor the memory of the person who has passed.

Get them place mats with the Unites States on them. Use them at breakfast lunch or dinner OR all three meals. Show them where they live...show them where Grandparents live or where the beaches are in our country and where Independence Hall is and the White House and Congress and Gov mansions across the country.

Show them the mountains, deserts, oceans, rivers, plains etc. Show them the Grand Canyon and where it is. Show them Pikes Peak and where it is. So many beautiful things our country has to offer. They should know a LOT of these things before they even get to school.

Take them to a police station, to a hospital, to a fire station and show them the people that help the rest of us.

Teach them to have their own thoughts and beliefs but to understand and respect the thoughts and beliefs of others as well.

Congratulations to you and your family for being so responsible with your children. They will thank you if they haven’t already! Keep up the good work. We’re proud of ya.

Yeah, me too. I just hope he genuinely feels that way he talks and tries to stick those beliefs. And I hope he runs although Romney would be my second choice.
