HAPPY SEPTEMBER! Persistance in our new-found awareness & keeping close watch on the "new batch" of candidate/public servant/administration officials is the only way 'We the People' here in America can assure that things won't slip back into unaccountability. That means "we" need to know how things work Constitutionally & politically, in order to make sure the rules are adhered to. The Ten Million People I'm searching for already know this information. Others will read our messages and maybe learn from them. I'll leave you with this thought: America was founded for human beings to be able to live in peace, privacy & safety, follow their dreams (without causing harm), and respect others to the point of staying out of their business unless their business is affecting the business of Americans (by "business" I mean personal/commercial). We are changing as a People worldwide, and the way we handle our own domestic/global problems will set an example worldwide. Best of wishes to You and Yours. Peace & Liberty!
