Those two quotes from that speech meant to remind people that we are Nation of free people (supposedly) We are capable of deciding personal choices for ourselves and that we should be left to work things out for ourselves. Our Federal Government was designed to have limited control over the day to day functions of the states and the people. Some how over time, the Federal Government has Usurped authority from the states and the people in order to empower themselves. As our current President, Obama has shown that without proper oversight and control over the checks and balances that allow our Democratic/Republic Society to function, You wind up with a dictatorship supported by a mockery of Representatives and Senators, pretending to serve the People. The greatest threat to any Empire through out history has been from within. Corruption allowed to fester until the very structure of the Nation began to crumble. Those elected to lead us in Governing our States and our Nation our rapidly and repeatedly bankrupting our treasuries and discrediting our Nation's reputation, what hasn't already been discredited by manipulation, deception, espionage and assassination.
A Government by the people, for the people is no longer how our Nation is administered. Americans are hated and despised the world over. Yet it is the actions of our Government and not the people that are causing harm the our Reputations. Our Governing bodies are out of control and yet Senators and Representatives speak often and repeatedly about bringing our elected officials back into compliance with the Constitution, they do so only until they themselves and their Political party are in position to abuse the powers of what ever office they hold at the time.
It is very likely that Obama will be reelected. The GOP having proffered no truly viable candidate (from the alleged front runners, Ron Paul being the only candidate attempting to restore integrity and constitutionalism to the Nation). Romney appears to be the GOP's candidate and a representative of the GOP aspirations to put women back into at best a second class citizen status and at worst a return to women as chattel. Women can't decide for themselves on Birth control, the Republican Senators and Representatives claim to be a better judge of what women in the U.S. need. How can any woman in the Nation Identify with that philosophy? How can any Woman claim to support GOP policies when those same policies will put women out of political office? Create hostile environments in the Doctors examination room? Women and anyone men in the U.S. supporting those GOP policies that eliminate our freedom and right to liberty are in fact traitors to the very concept of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
The Democratic party is no better for a very similar reasons though they may approach the situation from a different point of view, the end result comes out the same; more laws limiting the citizens rights and freedoms. the sad part about the whole mess is that voting in a third party candidate would work but you have to vote in third party in every seat in congress to create the necessary environment to put the Federal Government back in their place.
I have a new found respect for Patrick Henry and his historically famous speech learned in grade school history during lessons about the American Revolution. "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, Give me Liberty, or give me Death!" How do we regain our freedom and our rights when the entity rescinding, eliminating and obstructing our liberty is the very Government elected to protect that very thing...
