With nary a scintilla of "collectivism” intended or otherwise implied, I would like to sincerely invite whoever would like to join me Saturday, February 20th at the State Capitol for this event. 

Paraphrasing words Ernest Hancock used at the 2008 End the Fed rally that helped to cement my resolve to join the freedom movement, it is far better to be for something than it is to be against the opposite of that something.  And in the spirit of positive activism, let’s remind those in attendance what the Declaration of Independence stands for, and how the situations then and now are strikingly similar. 

In the 233 years, 6 months, and 28 days since it was adopted, the Declaration of Independence has become very faded, and unfortunately, so have the ideals engrossed upon its parchment.  While we can't refresh the faded ink, we can refresh the spirit of individual liberty that it embodies;

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
