I can't wait to hear Hillary's spittle-flecked rebuttal. This is truly the sort of speech that makes the leftist crowd writhe in pain, like that scene in The Exorcist with the Holy Water.

It seems Trump understands the difference between a "democracy" and a "democratic republic". Right out of the gate that makes him smarter than half the republicans and all of the democrats ... Heck, he's FReeper material.

Mr. President, let me school you a little bit:

true spiritual freedom, that is, salvation, was and is always purchased with the Blood of Jesus. that is indeed a gift from God.

true and lasting political freedom, as history proves, is rare and has always been purchased with a continuous flow of the blood and substance of virtuous patriots—of whom there is ample evidence that many were already children of God, and thus spiritually free prior to willingly giving their all for God, family, state and nation. such has certainly been the case in America.

John McCain disagrees?

He must - this is the only Nation on God's green Earth that has those concepts written into its Constitution and he considers it all “half-baked, spurious nationalism”.....

Therein is the foundation reason for the split between conservatives and liberals. Conservatives believe rights are inherited and untouchable descending from God. Liberals believe “rights” are released to the public through laws of the collective hive-mind of mankind. This must be solved before any other conversations have any chance of reaching a consensus.

I’m 32; I’d have a fun discussion with them about natural rights.

Sorry to everyone for bumping this thread.
