Re-discovering America

America is now defining its future.  The nation is reaching self-actualization and the debate continues as to who we want to be.  The crossroads have never been this strongly defined.  Is government the solution or part of the problem?  Do we believe in the sovereignty of the United States or in global governance?  Do we believe in state sovereignty or relinquishing authority to the federal level?  Do we respect and value the individual or only the collective?  Are we a nation of laws?  Is justice blind?  Are all men created equal?  Do we believe in the free market system?  Do we stop passing debt to the next generation?  Do we expect value in our currency?  Do we believe the people are better stewards than the government?  Should success be based on merit?  Do we believe in personal responsibility or expanding entitlements?  Do we believe in freedom of the press?  Freedom to worship?  Should we have citizen legislators or a ruling class of elites?  Do we follow the pioneering American spirit?  Do we continue to take the road less traveled?  — We know where the Left one leads.
