A reminder of our foundation

Most people forget that the US was founded as a Republic, not a Democracy or worse yet, a Capitalist based society, which is an economic policy, not a form of government. I would encourage each of you to spend 15 minutes today researching what a Republic is and how it is different from a Democracy.

As the Congressional elections heat up, I would also encourage you to challenge your elected officials to restate what their preferences are for how our government should be shaped in the coming decades.

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.

Take Action!
