I like posts that I read to be brief.  So today, I will do just that–be brief!   Rather than an essay or article, today, permit me to simply list some words and phrases…verbal symbols…key concepts that are at the core of America’s greatness, terms we should all believe in, agree upon and be able to rally around.  Without further adieu, please let these words challenge your thinking, ignite your patriotic passion and stir you to greater involvement:

Separation of Powers

State’s Rights

Checks and Balances

Limited, Non-Intrusive Government

Individual Liberties

National Sovereignty

Secure Borders

Humble Foreign Policy

Individual Responsibility

Preventive Medicine

Congress = Public Servants

“Entitlements” Weaken the Entitled

Narrow Federal Powers

War Criminals = Military Trial

Strong Defense

Stronger Families

Free Market Solutions

Freedom of Speech

Freedom to Assemble Peaceably

Freedom of Religion

Of the People

By the People

FOR the PEOPLE
