A bit of history that has been resurrected and quoted many times lately is from Benjamin Franklin. After the framers of the Constitution had completed their job, a friend of Franklin’s, Mrs. Elizabeth Powel, asked him, “Well Doctor, what did you give us, a monarchy or a democracy?” to which he replied, “A Republic, Madam, if you can keep it.” Franklin was not expecting Mrs. Powel, herself, to “keep it,” but was referring to us, We The People, as being responsible for keeping our Republic.
The question is, when the time in history has come when the Republic needs its people to keep this Republic together, why won’t we wake up?!” It is not that the battle being waged against us and our Republic is anything new. The assault has been taking place for at least 100 years, and has continued up until this very day. The traitors from both sides of the aisle as well as foreign entities have been at War with us, but we have not been participating. The battle has reached a tipping point to where, if we don’t wake up and fight back, the War will be lost without us ever having engaged in it.
The sad fact is that we have been thinking that we elected honest patriots to fill positions of the highest levels in our government to protect us and fight this fight for us, to defend and protect our Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Sadly, we must recognize that over the many years, a hugely significant number of our elected officials from both major parties have been bought off or compromised to where they are completely impotent in the fight or have actually become complicit in the effort to tear down this country and send us into a hellhole of a one world order, governed by elitists, progressives, socialists, and communists.
Our enemy has not kept this War secret. Alexander Trachtenberg, Communist, said in a speech in Madison Square Garden in 1944 that they were not going to take the United States under the label of Communism or Socialism, but would take it under liberalism, progressivism and democracy, “but take it we will.” David Rockefeller admitted in his book, Memoirs, that he was an elitist and member of a cabal which had as its goal to take over the United States and submerge it into a one world order. Barack Obama shouted over the television to us right before his first election that we were just five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.
We are We The People. We must wake up; we must educate ourselves; we must find new leaders who are patriots like us; we must find ways to help them get elected so that they are in a position to fight this War. 2022 is around the corner, time is short. We have a beautiful Republic, if we can keep it! America First!
