It took a lot of muscle, blood, courage and tenacity to tame a continent. It took a people who refused to give up on the dream of freedom and prosperity that had uprooted them and motivated them to leave ancestral homes and sail thousands of miles of treacherous ocean to make landfall in a new world they knew nothing about and face hostile indigents, raging rivers and endless, uncharted wilderness inundated with aggressive animals, poisonous snakes and only heaven knew what else.
It took a people who were willing to claim this wild land foot by foot and come together armed with a few muskets and squirrel rifles to defeat the most well-equipped and feared military force on the planet.
It took human beings who could face stifling isolation, those who had a fire in their bellies to shake off the peasant mantle and let the rich soil of this new land sift through their fingers knowing that every grain belonged to them, free from the suffocating control of Lords and Earls who took the fruits of their backbreaking labor and allowed them a pittance.
They wanted to live in a land that promised to respect the personal liberty of every man, governed by a body of representatives chosen by the people, of the people and for the people.
It took dreamers who envisioned great things and wanderers who just had to see what was over the next hill. It took men of vision who could bring their collective dreams to fruition, and strong, unbending men who could make and enforce the laws that pertained to everybody equally.
It took a people who could come together under one dream, one cause and one banner, to live in a land without an official religion where God could be worshipped in the manner and by the doctrine their convictions dictated, not by a king or an official church, but by the heart and conscience of the believer.

CIVIL WAR IS COMING TO DEMS.
Dear Charlie ,
I would like that to happen , but as you know obama had 8 years to corrupt our citizens and the government . Trump is trying to get our country back , 2 and a half years just won't do it. Soon as 7:34 commented we will be fighting for our lives . The democrats have made that clear lately with the violence everywhere . Some of us are prepared already because of the 8 year obama administration , we knew then but we didn't know when. The shot heard around the world will start in D.C.. May God have mercy on your souls.
I do believe in the King James version of the bible , remember that David killed Goliath and he became one of Gods chosen , I'm sure he is in heaven or at least headed there. I served in the army as an infantry soldier 1966-1968 ,
men died and men killed , I will do it again if I have to without any regret.
The enemy within (democrats) need to wake up , my oath was to protect us from foreign and domestic enemies , looks like domestic to me .
NOPE! I hate the left, Liberals, and Democrats! They are America's Enemies! They need to be wiped off this earth to save our country.
Ooooweee the internet tough guys are out! Get a ckue people. If you love America and the ideals the country is founded upon you would realize that your method of thinking is the real example of being anti-american ("think as I do or else you are the enemy")

Try reading the New Testament
Turn away from the satanic Talmudic Judaism of the Rabbis and forgive your enemies, even as we hope Israel’s enemies will forgive Christian Americans for murdering in the name of Empire.
Come quickly Lord Jesus Christ!
I do know some Democrats who are friends and yes family. This is a feeding frenzy, there is blood in the water (so to speak) fueled by the radical rhetoric of the 2020 candidates who in their hearts probably abhor what they are actually spewing. This isn't about solutions or policies; it is purely about power and pandering to voters. I would wager a large amount of money that if elected these "candidates" would renege on every promise blaming congress, the senate, or the sun was in their eyes. These are not stupid people, Booker is a Rhodes scholar. Most know, except Bernie, Socialism is a failed strategy and free stuff for all is not sustainable. These "candidates" are shills for a Soros based ideology to gain power and put a stranglehold on democracy. Soros does not give a whit about the U.S. and spends his billions to undermine the integrity of the constitution. Americans in both parties need to see the light and vote responsibly. You may not like Trump the man but one can't argue what he is trying to do.
Not as long as Soros and his crowd control the MSM.
As a Conservative Republican I would love to do this. The democrats and liberals have to make the first move. If you remember, they are the ones that protested, went crazy in the streets, and attacked President Trump supporters after their girl Killary was defeated in an election that was rigged for her to win. That being said, this should start with an apology!
apology hell
we need to kick some of their 2 year old azz behaviors
