President Lincoln Knew, the Democrats are still clueless



On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln gave one of the shortest and greatest speeches of his presidency known as the Gettysburg Address. A part of that speech I believe reflects what is happening in this country today.  “Our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty.  Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and dedicated can long endure”.  Today, the battle we are engaged in is not a military conflict, but a battle for the minds and hearts of the citizens of this country.  A battle to save our constitution from those who want to destroy our way of life and the freedoms we have enjoyed for nearly 230 years.  There is a desire by individuals and groups to transform our country to a socialist society where all power is placed in the hands of the government.  In essence, a dictatorship where the constitution and Bill of Rights are trampled upon.  It is time for the American people to demand change we can believe in as long as the change is getting back to what is contained in the constitution.  We want our elected officials to read the constitution and to follow this document that many Americans have shed their blood defending.  Some politicians are trying to force their ideology on us that is contrary to our constitution.  We are a country of legal immigration and not illegal as some want you to believe.
