7.31.25 - A CALL TO ACTION
I’ve been watching what’s happened to our country over the past 30 years. Particularly in the past 15 years or so and I thought it was time to share my thoughts with like-minded Americans.
In every generation, there comes a moment to remember who we are and what we stand for. Today, amid division and disillusionment, it is time to create a movement that brings back American pride and patriotism as a living commitment to the country that gives us so many good things. I’d like all Americans to join with me.
I know many people are hurting right now. Some feel left behind, unheard, or uncertain about the future. It’s hard to see the blessings of America when you’re struggling to make ends meet—I understand completely; I’ve been there. But even in our toughest moments, this country holds the promise of renewal. Things can and will get better - because we still have the freedom to speak, to work, to vote, and to shape change. America isn’t perfect, no country is, but it’s still worth supporting. In good times and bad, this nation deserves your allegiance, your hope, and your belief in its future. To deny American is to insinuate that people and nations can’t grow, can’t change and become better versions of themselves.
It’s easy to point out America’s flaws but focusing only on what’s wrong gives a one-sided view. We must tell the full story of our national journey, with all its trials and triumphs. We must also recognize the freedoms and opportunities we enjoy - many of which millions around the world risk everything to attain. America offers a pathway to a better life few other countries can match.
Let us teach everyone what is right with America. Let us honor our Constitution, fly the flag with pride, and light the fire of patriotism - in our families, governments, churches and businesses. The world needs a strong, principled America. We need all Americans to believe in their country again. That belief begins with us, right now, choosing to stand and lead with courage. I know we are a quiet group. We like to live and let live, but it's time we stand – before those in opposition to the American way extinguish the light of hope that America provides to so many.
