8/28 Rally
If you don’t believe we are for real. Just look around
Hundreds of thousands have converged on this one site alone. Just look around
Hundreds of buses have come from across the States, with dozens of people filling their seats. Traveling long days on those buses, just to come and be here today.
You don’t believe. Look around. People filled in, practically taking over the memorial, just to lesse3n. To believe!
You may not believe. That is your choice to make
But if you don’t believe that something can and will happen, that we are just crazy people or that we should just stay quite. Well, my friend, you are sadly mistaken
We will rise, your voices no longer quite
Just look around!
The shear number of people from all different States, people that no longer live in America, are different races are here! Blake, White, Latino, Asian. Christian, Catholics, Muslims, Buddhism. All different kinds of people are here. From every color, religion, ethnicity, standing side by side. Helping each other as the day goes on.
We are not racist like we are called. We just believe and we are no longer quite. And those that do not like to hear us speak are those who call us racist
We believe
Believe that we can make a difference
We have Faith in God and what is right
We have Faith in our selves and in out friends
Not in the government
We Hope that those around us will do the right thing
We Hope all is not yet lost
We Hope that the government will lessen to the people
We have Charity
Give to those in need
Give to those that give it all for us
And to those who cant give a thing
But 8 pennies is all he can sacrifice. It’s his life savings
If you think one-person cant make a difference
You are wrong
One person can make all the difference
It’s not the good of the collection!
It’s the good of the individual!
The individual is whom that makes the difference
There were hundreds of thousands of us that believe
Not in racism, or bad things. Not what the media makes us out to be
But people who have Faith, Hope and Charity
You may disagree with me but “I will defend your right to do so”
We are people that believe in what our founding Father’s believed
People that want those beliefs back
We are not bad individuals
But if you have the right to speak for what you believe in,
Then so do we
“God is not on our side, but we must make us, so that we are on his”
God Bless America

i some what agree with you, but i do not think that all Demicratsare bad. and it will take years to pay it off, a lot more then 10 because i dont if you've heard but our debt is more then the whole worlds money suplies put to gether
and when it collapse it also collapse what the last string of America. but i think people are starting to wake up and see what is happening. it will take years as is to fix the damage done, but it can and will happen. one way or another. were not stupid
I cannot wait for November to throw these bums out of office! I am so proud of this grass-roots movement which has taken place in the past 20 months. This administration has literally bankrupted this country. This president has engaged in class warfare and spite tactics to rally support for his legislation. The American people have not bought it! Although we have a government which plots against us for our own good, the American people have revolted in peaceful activism demanding nothing less than the reinstitution of our constitution and an end to the economics and the politics of plunder! If the poll data is correct, and I believe very much that it is, there is going to be a resurgence in the Senate unlike anything we have seen in generations! Although the Democrats will loose their majority in the House of Representatives, the battle only begins. We must ensure that the newly elected representatives undo the massive federal bureaucracy which dictates our economy, taxes success, and institutionalizes plunder. We must repeal Obamacare and strike down any and all attempts to nationalize more of our economy, furthering the amount of money siezed by our government to fund projects which our government has no business doing!
Our country is on the verge of bankruptcy. I promise you that if the spending by the federal government does not subside, the economy will collapse. I do not know if this will happen in 2,3,4,5, 10, or 20 years, but this spending is unsustainable and it cannot continue. The majority of people reject this president because they know their economic security is at steak and their freedom is being undone as the government bureaucracy grows in mass. I want those who still stand by this Administration, this Senate, and this Congress, to realize that when the welfare state collapses, it doesn't just collapse on the so-called "rich", it destroys the wealth of everybody, including you and your families. You can spend somebody elses money for so long before you eventually run out.
And i respect your opinion. and i do agree it is good to see it
i guess it all depends on how you take the quote. i wasnt the one to say nore do i really know the person that did, so i cant say how it was intened
