I believe that America was founded with Freedom as an idea, to be held and respected, for all , and by all, and not reduced to federal limitations on where, by what means, and how far an American may travel, by obtainment of a passport, or permissive letters of travel.

Here are some historical facts:

 

 

 

Mayflower Compact

 

In the name of God, Amen. We, whose names are underwritten, the loyal subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord King James, by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, King, defender of the Faith, etc.

Having undertaken, for the Glory of God, and advancements of the Christian faith and honor of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the Northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents, solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God, and one another, covenant and combine ourselves together into a civil body politic; for our better ordering, and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid; and by virtue hereof to enact, constitute, and frame, such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions, and offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the colony; unto which we promise all due submission and obedience.In witness whereof we have hereunto subscribed our names at Cape Cod the 11th of November, in the year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord King James, of England, France, and Ireland, the eighteenth, and of Scotland the fifty-fourth, 1620.

dear elsie,

Remember .... even THE PURITANS, who landed in the ‘now provincetown area’, got in and got out of THERE right quick, even in those days!

And as to your thoughts on Freedom ... it is past time that We The People get BACK to that, period.
