America will never be destroyed from the outside.

 "Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide." ~ Abraham Lincoln


The context of this quote was the Civil War, but it's message is as pertinent and resonates as strongly today. 

I will bring further clarity and emphasis to this point through the use of others quotes. 

For example, nearly 100 years ago,  American socialist, Norman Thomas, who six times ran for POTUS as the Socialist Party of America candidate ticket, stated that the American people would never vote for socialism but that under the name of liberalism the American people would adopt every fragment of the socialist program.

Empty words?"But at the moment I'd like to talk about another way because this threat is with us and at the moment is more imminent. One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It's very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project. . . . Now, the American people, if you put it to them about socialized medicine and gave them a chance to choose, would unhesitatingly vote against it. We have an example of this. Under the Truman administration it was proposed that we have a compulsory health insurance program for all people in the United States, and, of course, the American people unhesitatingly rejected this." ~ Ronald Reagan

Consider that our colleges and universities have become bastions of liberalism. This is true of our K-12 educational system as well. Have we not seen students admonished and even punished for wearing the American flag on their clothing in school? Is MAGA wear not treated in the same fashion? Anything denoting the principles the United States of America were founded upon are under attack, from within.

Has the US been infiltrated from abroad or is this home grown destruction as our founding fathers suggested it would be?  I would think an argument for both could be made. And for conspiracy theorists it seems possible, and perhaps even plausible, that both are working collaboratively to bring about change that will destroy forever the freedom and liberties granted by God and set forth in the Constitution.

"The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases."  ~Thomas Jefferson

Is there any among you who can argue that this is not the case?  

You say no organized plot to radically alter the US Constitution and ideals exists?  The motivation of an ever growing federal government and the restraints placed upon the citizens they are supposed to represent is founded in the good intentions of the elected leaders?

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters." – Daniel Webster 

We need look no further than to the continuing attacks on and erosion of the Second Amendment. The liberals / socialists have already restricted the types of weapons citizens can own and continue to seek banning guns.  Lost is the true reason for allowing citizens to bear arms of equal measure to the country’s military forces. 

 "Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any body of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States." ~ Noah Webster

Even the supposed great liberal John F. Kennedy knew the dangers of big government: "Every time that we try to lift a problem from our own shoulders, and shift that problem to the hands of the government, to the same extent we are sacrificing the liberties of our people." ~ John F. Kennedy

There have been great generations of Americans who have stood strong under the burden of fighting for, establishing and fighting to maintain the ideals and principles of the US Constitution. It is time for another great generation to arise.  A generation with convictions strong enough and courage rampant enough to stand amid and against the onslaught that that is liberal socialism to protect, maintain and regain true Constitutional Liberty

Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty. ~ Thomas Jefferson

It is a battle not for the faint of heart. The enemy has infiltrated our fabric. The educational system, the media, entertainers and social Democrat elected leaders are using every weapon at their disposal to brainwash younger generations. Their propaganda machine runs 24/7 and without proper educational background our youth believe what they are told because if someone says something is true, than it must be true. If it's on the Internet, it must be fact. The will to freely think and assert one's own  opinions is eroding. We once again need a great generation to stand tall and firm to reestablish America as our founding fathers meant it to be.
