Carrie Underwood – The Champion ft. Ludacris
They say that every champion is all about his principles
“If it were to be asked, What is the most sacred duty and the greatest source of security in a Republic? The answer would be, An inviolable respect for the Constitution and Laws—the first growing out of the last. It is by this, in a great degree, that the rich and powerful are to be restrained from enterprises against the common liberty—operated upon by the influence of a general sentiment, by their interest in the principle, and by the obstacles which the habit it produces erects against innovation and encroachment. It is by this, in a still greater degree, that caballers, intriguers, and demagogues are prevented from climbing on the shoulders of faction to the tempting seats of usurpation and tyranny.”
To the People of the United States
Be champions of the Constitution and the Rule of Law

Thank you, Robbie. I have learned so much about so many things over the past 24 months. One thing I’ve gained is a deep respect for the visionary leadership of people who founded American Democracy.

Perfection.
Unfortunately we’re in age where apparently it’s become acceptable to self-define everything… and attention spans are the length of a tweet. (eye roll) I can imagine my coworkers wouldn’t even understand half the words — nor would they sit down to puzzle out the meaning.
Even so, here’s to that sacred duty.
Hugs.

I now take my cues from the kids in high school, who seem to be smart and freedom loving. The struggle to transcend the beast that we were will never entirely end. But I believe that honor will eventually prevail.
