Craig Porter for Congress

Florida's 25th Congressional District

Independence

Almost everyone has something planned for the 4th. Boating, BBQ, off road drive, the movies, drink beer, watch tv, play zynga games, sit back and recover from an illness, fix the house or the computer, cut the grass, read, catch up on homework, travel, see relatives, cook, play with the dogs, ride the horse, go shooting, work out, work, and the list is endless. Whatever you did you did because you probably had a choice. Americans before you did some amazing things to secure your freedom to enjoy a day of remembrance. A day to be thankful for the Independence of America. So enjoy the day whatever you do. Enjoy today, the 4th of July, Independence day.

But tomorrow, and the next day and the rest of the year are days that you must secure that independence. There are forces at work in the country that are trying to steal the history of the American way of Independece. Ever since Abraham Lincoln and the end of the civil war. In fact the cause of the Civil War in this Country there has been a subtle shift of power from the people. There are well meaning people and not so well meaning people of the past and the present that are both knowledgeable and some ignorant about the way our Independence is being taken away from us.

In this respect Rush Limbaugh and George Soros are birds of the same feather. I use these examples only because they are well known to a lot of people. There are hundreds of thousands more just like them. They appear to be on different ends of a political spectrum but in the end they are almost identical in the effect they have on this country. They have a lot of influence on the way a lot of people view matters. And they both lead the country towards  Communist end.

Ever since Lincoln said a house divided can not stand the United States has been that division. Politicians, media, upstanding citizens and scoundrels have promoted for differnent reasons a political party system that has controlled Washington. A person can claim whatever title they want for their politics but when they promote a party over the founding principles well that’s just communist. You can call yourself a liberal or you can call yourself a conservative or you can call yourself an anarchist but the end result is the same that a party rules instead of the people as in We the People.

Our Founders principles don’t include party politics. It’s time we decide to stop falling for the scare tactic of if you don’t vote for me, “the other side id going to win”. And the other side of what? The other side of America or the other side of the aisle or the other side of the party? At the beginning of tomorrow the party system has gotten us here since the time of Lincoln. If you think this is great and the way America should be then by all means vote your party. If you think we should be at a better place or can be heading down a better road then it’s time to step up. It’s time to burn the boats that keep us reliant on our fear from the party. Burn the boats, abandon party politics forget communism and Restore the Republic to it’s Constitutionally authorized form of Government. Let We the People continue to Declare our Independence from an abusive over sized Federal Government.
