President's Day Message

I'm fairly certain that our current President will likely never have his birthday celebrated. Sure, we'll acknowledge him on President's Day, but he'll never be a runner-up to those who were, and are, so highly deemed as leaders, such as: George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, and, even, Ronald Reagan. In honor of our wonderful national leaders, we salute you with this President's Day message!

Presidents Day: A Day to Honor Those Who Faithfully Served
While the argument can be made that all Presidents of the US should be honored, given the level of the office, we much prefer to focus on those who actually honor their oath of office.
 
No one did more to shape the office of the President than our first President, George Washington. He had such an influence with other founding fathers that Washington had the opportunity to mold the office into pretty much whatever he could make of it. In fact, others wanted to make him king. Fortunately for us, he turned them down.
 
Instead, President George Washington set the standard no other President has been able to live up to. He shunned power and personal gain to demonstrate how the fledgling Republic was supposed to be run, complete with the appropriate checks and balances. It's these checks and balances that are sorely lacking today.
 
To learn more about each of our Presidents, from George Washington to Barack Obama, FreedomProject Education offers a 60 second video on each of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpRGZwqskXU&feature=share&list=PL986619BAA1C28437

We also must continue to press forward with diligence to recapture the presidency! After watching this video on Hannity this weekend, I think we may have just found the perfect person! Read the following article (just in case you missed the broadcast) and let us know what you think: http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/hannity/2013/02/18/saving-america-dr-benjamin-carsons-fight-real-change
