“The victors of this second American Revolution will determine the social and economic course of the United States for centuries to come. Most of us will be around to watch it begin.”

The thing is, we don’t have anybody who rises to the level of the victors of the first American Revolution. I’m hesitant about the course they might lay, unless it is to return to the original course.

That is exactly why the country needs a war time President. One that can take control and prove to the people that he will protect this country and work to make it as strong as it was in the past. The people of this country will take a lot if they believe we are heading in the right direction. As Commander in Chief, he must have the military’s best interest at heart, knowing full well that they will protect this country............not just to adhere to the RoE’s that in place now. At the present, just the regulations that the WH has placed on this country has cost $1.6 Trillion. That has to stop and allow the people to control their own lives and not bend to a small group of people that say “It’s not fair.”

I think we have some people to rise to the top—it is the masses that I worry about—most are selfish, can’t sacrifice their immediate pleasure for any type of hardship that would have to result.

They are immoral.

The people who founded this nation and came originally suffered a lot for their future—particularly the future of their children and grandchildren. Too many “good” people now have children for dress-up and as a status symbol—it is all about themselves—you can see the narcissism and selfishness on Facebook. They don’t spend much time with their offspring—give them to others to raise and form their “morals” and worldview as if “others” will love their genetic offspring as much as a mother should.

Leaders usually always appear on the scene—like Churchill—but it is the masses that will either follow or turn to the “easy” solution—the one that appears “nicest” at the moment-—but will end up to be the hell of the gulag.

This is why we need an unashamedely American President that is PRO America. I am proud to be an American and make NO apology for living in and being part of the GREATEST nation on the face of the earth. America is still the great melting pot - taking the best of all cultures and adopting them as our own - then improving them.

A nation where one can change your state in life through your own actions at any age from any place - with drive, determination, and a large dose of the American Spirit.

Our next president must communicate this and be living proof of the power of the American Spirit, including the goodness of America and her people and, as Reagan did, inspire Americans to greatness through the truth that America and the American way under our Constitution (as written - not interpreted) is the last best hope for the nation and the world.

Right now we have a few American success stories as candidates, but the only candidate (pending) that inspires the Reagan type of confidence and belief in America among hard working Americans is Sarah Palin.

This is why she is so explosive, true Americans don’t need the Government, we need Government OUT OF OUR WAY economically and limited to those areas clearly delinieated in the Constitution and NOTHING MORE. Sarah lives and knows what all Alaskans know (and the Tea Party is remembering) - the Government that governs least governs best.
