We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
~ Preamble
what an amazing document our founding fathers created! it bends and flexes as needed and yet remains firm and strong against all the vicissitudes of daily use and abuse. that this country was able to move seamlessly from the previous administration to the current speaks volumes about the strength of our governing document. if you've never read the constitution, i humbly invite you to do so. it won't take very long.
i may not agree with or approve of everything that americans do or all that this country represents, but at least i know i can express my disagreement and disapproval publicly without fear of reprisal. can't say that about every country in the world.

long may it wave.


you can't eat your pride or cleanse your soul of what is you -
i'd rather regret the things i've done than the things i did not do.
