When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Our government has become destructive so therefore We The People will institute a new government on November 6, 2012. Let us not forget the Declaration of Independence and The Constitution come November 6, 2012.

The future of our Republic is in the voters' hands. I pray they choose wisely.

Indeed. One last opportunity to redeem "We The People."

These are my three personal favorites because I believe that these marches best musically reflect the meaning of July 4.

The Liberty Bell

The Stars and Stripes Forever

Semper Fidelis

The freedoms that are ingrained in the Constitution are in danger of the 'social engineers' who feel that we have too many liberties and we cannot take care of ourselves. The very sad fact is that the majority of Americans have no clue what is in our Constitution and they have no interest in learning it. All they care about is what they are going to get for "free" from the government. I just pray that those of us who are smart will outvote the dumb ones.
