Americans are still reeling from the election. Many are wondering what went wrong, and why.
How can so many people vote for a president whose policies are so destructive for our country?
What does our future hold when a large majority of young voters choose the guy who promises them the most free stuff from the government?
Never mind that government "freebies" can only be purchased with borrowed money from China -- money young Americans will have to repay sooner than they realize. Young people chose what they thought was an easy handout, and they rejected the candidate who had the knowledge and skills to create the jobs they so desperately need. Their decision will make future challenges much more formidable.
But who can blame them? America's youth are immersed in principles and in practices that will destroy their liberty, peace, and prosperity. In the public schools, on college campuses, in the entertainment they watch, and in the mainstream news media, they are deceived and entrapped
That isn't by accident. Progressives have worked patiently and persistently to control our "most important cultural institutions. It took time, but the payoff has been huge."
Even now, some believe it's too late to save the rising generation. But we have a significant advantage -- progressive policies don't work.
If we patiently and persistently give our best effort, and rely on God when we fall short, we can win our young people back. We must learn and live the principles and practices of liberty and share them with our families. Our example may help our sons and daughters come to value the Constitution and the liberty it makes possible.
It won't be easy -- almost everything in the culture is going the opposite direction. But few endeavors are more important.
How can we not give our best efforts -- our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor -- to preserve the priceless legacy of liberty we've been given? "The price of liberty is eternal vigilance," and sometimes much more. Others have paid a staggering price for us. Now it's our turn to toil and sacrifice so we can share this sacred gift with future generations.
With the help of God, and with our very best efforts, Patriotic Moms and Dads can carefully convey our noble heritage to countless millions, just as patriots before us.
That is our only hope. Let's pray we're not too late!

We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."
