THANKS OBAMA, CONGRESS FOR THE SECOND AMERICAN REVOLUTION
By Domenick J. Maglio Ph.D Neo Traditionalsim
The subtle and gradual expansion of the federal government under both Presidents Bush has been replaced by the more “in-your-face” and explosive race to socializing America. This blatant arrogance of a political elite has awakened the American people. The Obama administration has been the catalyst of the Second American Revolution.
The 9/12/ 2009 Constitutional Revival and March on Washington, D.C. and its mini conventions throughout the United States on this day showed America that We The People are the difference between liberty and tyranny. The crooked politicians and mainstream media accomplices can no longer hide the truth by repeating lies and censoring the facts. Citizens of America are not as stupid as politicians believe.
Everyone can see with their own non-lying eyes the photos of wall-to-wall people from the Capital Building to the Washington Monument. CNN and ABC initially reported 1.5 to 2 million people not the ridiculous 20 to 60 thousand revised number. The British press, that has no ax to grind, reported there were 2 million people. Even the interstate highways were shut down due to the overflow of people trying to reach the mall.
This was the largest gathering of people in the history of the country. They came from all 50 states to speak in a united voice. This enormous hoard of humanity was not an “unruly, racist, Nazi mob” rather it was an incredibly large collection of law abiding, friendly individuals. There were no people provoking arrest. Everyone was courteous and orderly to the point of leaving the sacred grounds litter free. These peaceful, freedom-loving marchers started at Freedom Plaza, nearby the White House, walked down Pennsylvania Avenue to the domed Capitol Building.
Families with their children, middle agers, college students, retired folks, Black, White, Hispanic, Hawaiians, Native Americans, democrat, republican, independent and the apolitical from every walk of life sat but mostly stood listening intently to one inspiring speaker after another. These patriotic individuals felt the power of knowing they were not alone. Spontaneously they spoke with the people beside them as if they were life-long friends sharing complicated thoughts and feelings with each other. Even though they did not personally know each other they were on the same page believing in American exceptionalism.
- Our political, religious and cultural values forged by our forefathers over 230 years ago were fully recognized for their eternal truth by those standing in front of the dome.
- Our inalienable rights to life, liberty and (property) the pursuit of happiness is not granted to us by a ruler but endowed by our Creator.
- Government that governs least governs best.
- The larger the government power the greater the loss of individual freedom.
- The passing on of debt to future generations is an immoral act.
- There has and will continue to be in any form of government, including socialism, no free lunch.
- The American people are the ultimate check against government enslavement.
The only way America can function is to have moral and educated citizens. Our civic responsibility is to be aware of our representatives’ voting records and keep them when they are serving our self-interest and fire them when they are serving their own self-interests.
This renewed awareness of the relevance of our constitution has inspired the Second American Revolution. The same truth that was derived by the oppression of King George on the colonists can be seen today in the power grabbing and rape of our treasury. The empty promises, false hope and destructive changes are no different than what our founders faced as colonists.
Americans want to keep the American Dream that is rooted in our constitution: that any American regardless of his birth status can improve his position through his personal effort. We cannot allow, “power at all costs” politicians to hijack our constitutional freedoms and free market prosperity.
The dedicated people who chose to sacrifice their own money and time to come to Washington, D.C. often were politically involved for the first time and realized they were on a spiritual journey to take back America from the counter culture radicals spawned during the 1960s. They spoke together on the way back from the event on the metro, busses, and in airports about the historical significance of this moment. They were elated although they realized their efforts have just begun. They spontaneously committed themselves to return whenever needed to demand their voices be heard and listened to by our governmental representatives. No longer will they tolerate the people they hired to work for special interests to satisfy their own personal greed.
The American People are no longer a sleeping giant. We are an invigorated, aware people who know the power lies with us to take back the reins of government. We are not protesting against, we are just taking back our great nation that was handed to us at great sacrifice by our ancestors.
We have once again united as a people and will no longer allow government to divide us nor will we remain apathetic. The truth cannot and will not be ignored. The American spirit will prevail in this The Second American Revolution as it did in the first.
