a:1:{s:15:"field_blog_body";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:5:"value";s:3693:"<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; With the anniversary of our Nation&rsquo;s birth just a few short days away it is sad that a significant number of the people who live in this country know very little about the 4th of July. They don&rsquo;t know why the people left England to risk death, and the struggles they had to face to guarantee us the liberties we take for granted today. And sadly many don&rsquo;t even care as long as they have their iPod, iPad, video game, or any of the other innumerable distractions that remove them from reality.</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Many may parrot the infamous words of Hillary Clinton, <br />
<br />
</span></div>
<blockquote>
<div><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: rgb(128, 0, 0);"><strong>What difference does it make?&rdquo;</strong></span></span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
</blockquote>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The sad truth is it does matter. As a society we have become so self-centered and distracted by meaningless drivel we have let the foundation of our republic slowly be eroded over the years by progressive politicians, judges, and justices.</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Little do our society&rsquo;s lemmings realize we are poised precariously at the tipping point when the last nail will be hammered into the coffin of our once vibrant and unique form of government know as the American Republic.&nbsp;</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;That event could well take place within the next few years if our country&rsquo;s voters fail to recognize how far we have drifted from the basic tenets of freedom of, &nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><em><strong>&ldquo;Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness&rdquo;</strong></em></span> as declared in the Declaration of Independence.</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The first event that could continue the demise of our republic is the 2014 mid term elections. The second event will be the 2016 Presidential and congressional elections.</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;At stake will be control of the U.S. Senate and House followed by the election of our next president in 2016.&nbsp;</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Failing to elect &ldquo;Constitutional Conservatives&rdquo; in these upcoming elections will cause the already precipitous decline to be concluded with the next President possibly nominating and the Senate confirming as many as three new Supreme Court Justices. As a nation the selection of more progressive Justices by a Hillary Clinton will be a bellwether event placing our original constitution on the trash heap of the past.</span></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp; &nbsp; Our future is in our hands! We should each be doing all we can to save our republic while we still have time. You will determine the future of our country by your vote.</span></div>
