The US is having an identity crisis, our generation forced to decide: will we or will we not choose to stand on the principles bequeathed to us: the equality of all; God-given inalienable rights to life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness; & govt. existing to secure those rights.

Important we consider that question because it’s not the way we function now. Much govt policy does NOT respect the equality of all & does NOT support everyone’s pursuit of happiness. According to Dec of Ind, if govt fails to do its job it’s the right of the people to alter it.

The Declaration of Independence is America’s mission statement; part of our problem is that our generation has failed to emotionally and psychologically bond with it. Its principles are dead if they’re not alive in our hearts. Read it and reread it. It will change you. #bigtruth

The 1st Republican Pres. was Abe Lincoln. He signed the Emancipation Proclamation, pushed the 13th Amendment through Congress, ordered 365,000+ to die on the battlefields and 282,000+ were wounded. Lincoln brought the Declaration to fruition. Just what the hell have you done?

Too many Americans have no idea of the foundational principles of our nation are, the rights guaranteed, and the pride we should all have in a so- loving nation. Instead, those with no understanding are marching w/Trump against all that is intelligent, good, and patriotic. Fools

I read it, & reread it, & in my humble opinion the most important part is, "Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed," Governments derive their just powers by the CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED! Consent is key. #DirectDemocracy

This is white nationalist rhetoric as far as many leftists are concerned.
