The Strength of the American People

In an address to Awakening 2007, Mitt Romney stated, “At this decisive moment in our nation’s journey into a new global frontier, there are two competing visions about how America must meet a new generation of challenges. We must choose between calling on stronger government – the liberal vision – or calling on the strength of the American people – and that is my vision.”

I agree, the strength of America is in its people. History has revealed that great civilizations have self destructed when its people lose the love of freedom and fail to defend it. “The first free people, the Greeks, died . . . [because a] slackness and softness finally came over them to their ruin. In the end more than they wanted freedom they wanted security, a comfortable life, and they lost all—security, comfort and freedom.” Ezra Taft Benson, An Enemy Hath Done This (Parliament Publisher 1969 p 50-51) (quoting the Indianapolis Star which was commenting on a statement made by the communist leader Lenin).

In the end, if we American’s continue to look to the comfort and security of big government instead of our own ambitions, ingenuity, and labors, we, like the Greeks and other great civilizations, will lose all. Let us stand for freedom and against big government. Let us stand for Mitt Romney.

A Man Needed For His Time

Former President Ford passed away on Tuesday at 6:45 pm at the age of 93. President Ford’s political aspirations were inspired by is step-father who was an active member of the Republican Party. President Ford attended law school at Yale and in 1949 was elected as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives (Fifth District, Michigan).

According to Foxnews, President Bush stated that he was known as a man of “complete integrity” during a bleak time in our nation’s history. “He assumed power in a time of great division and turmoil for a nation that needed healing and for an office that needed a calm and steady hand. Gerald Ford came along when we needed him most.”

Like President Ford, Mitt Romney has deep roots in Michigan, received a law degree from a prestigious law school, was inspired by an exemplary father, and was a man who was needed for his time.
