The “picture” of America is getting ugly.  We have some difficult choices ahead of us as a Nation.  We used to be number one and now we have slid from that once wonderful position.  We need to continue to encourage freedom and at the same time foster safety.  We can guard against disaster by being preventative in our measures for the generations to come.  By being unified we can make wise choices and continue in peace.  Overall, we want to fly the American flag high in the sky – declaring our independence from injustice.
