PREPARING FOR 2012

What is America's condition in your mind? Citizens are becoming divided on most issues, the economy, the war on terror, and losing faith in our institutions and government. We have a sense of increasing uneasiness evidenced by demonstrations and a loss of civility and manners in the public forum. The conditions in our country are cause for concern as we realize we must change direction in 2012. Every citizen, and especially veterans, must become active agents for change; back to the basic tenants that made America great; follow the rule of law based on our constitution, return to our traditional values, work for a smaller government with more responsibility returned to the people, balance the federal budget, and win the war on terror with a robust and strong military. As veterans we can influence those around us to defend these basic American values by electing a new government team in 2012.
