We come here today in deference to the memory of those stalwart
patroits who on July 4, 1776, pledged their lives, their fortunes, and
their sacred honor to establish and defend the proposition that
governments are created by the people, empowered by the people, derive
their just powers from the consent of the people, and must forever
remain subservient to the will of the people.
Today, 188 years later, we celebrate that occasion and find
inspiration and determination and courage to preserve and protect the
great principles of freedom enunciated in the Declaration of
Independence.
It is therefore a cruel irony that the President of the United
States has only yesterday signed into law the most monstrous piece of
legislation ever enacted by the United States Congress.
It is a fraud, a sham, and a hoax.
This bill will live in infamy. To sign it into law at any time
is tragic. To do so upon the eve of the celebration of our
independence insults the intelligence of the American people.
It dishonors the memory of countless thousands of our dead who
offered up their very lives in defense of principles which this bill
destroys.
Never before in the history of this nation have so many human and
property rights been destroyed by a single enactment of the Congress.
It is an act of tyranny. It is the assassin's knife stuck in the back
of liberty.
With this assassin's knife and a blackjack in the hand of the
Federal force-cult, the left-wing liberals will try to force us back
into bondage. Bondage to a tyranny more brutal than that imposed by
the British monarchy which claimed power to rule over the lives of our
forefathers under sanction of the Divine Right of kings.
Today, this tyranny is imposed by the central government which
claims the right to rule over our lives under sanction of the
omnipotent black-robed despots who sit on the bench of the United
States Supreme Court.
This bill is fraudulent in intent, in design, and in execution.
It is misnamed. Each and every provision is mistitled. It was
rammed through the congress on the wave of ballyhoo, promotions, and
publicity stunts reminiscent of P. T. Barnum.
It was enacted in an atmosphere of pressure, intimidation, and
even cowardice, as demonstrated by the refusal of the United States
Senate to adopt an amendment to submit the bill to a vote of the
people.
To illustrate the fraud--it is not a Civil Rights Bill. It is a
Federal Penal Code. It creates Federal crimes which would take
volumes to list and years to tabulate because it affects the lives of
192 million American citizens. Every person in every walk and station
of life and every aspect of our daily lives becomes subject to the
criminal provisions of this bill.
It threatens our freedom of speech, of assembly, or association,
and makes the exercise of these Freedoms a federal crime under certain
conditions.
It affects our political rights, our right to trial by jury, our
right to the full use and enjoyment of our private property, the
freedom from search and seizure of our private property and
possessions, the freedom from harassment by Federal police and, in
short, all the rights of individuals inherent in a society of free
men.
Ministers, lawyers, teachers, newspapers, and every private
citizen must guard his speech and watch his actions to avoid the
deliberately imposed booby traps put into this bill. It is designed
to make Federal crimes of our customs, beliefs, and traditions.
Therefore, under the fantastic powers of the Federal judiciary to
punish for contempt of oucrt and under their fantastic powers to
regulate our most intimate aspects of our lives by injunction, every
american citizen is in jeopardy and must stand guard against these
despots.
Yet there are those who call this a good bill.
It is people like Senator Hubert Humphrey and other members of
Americans for Democratic Action. It is people like Ralph McGill and
other left-wing radical apologists.
They called it a good bill before it was amended to restore the
right to trial by jury in certain cases.
Yet a Federal judge may still try one without a jury under the
provisions of this bill. It was the same persons who said it was a
good bill before the amendment pretending to forbid busing of pupils
from neighborhood schools. Yet a Federal judge may still order busing
from one neighborhood school to another. They have done it, they will
continue to do it. As a matter of fact, it is but another evidence of
the deceitful intent of the sponsors of this bill for them to claim
that it accomplished any such thing.
It was left-wing radicals who led the fight in the Senate for the
so-called civil rights bill now about to enslave our nation.
We find Senator Hubert Humphrey telling the people of the United
States that "non-violent" demonstrations would continue to serve a
good purpose through a "long, busy and constructive summer."
Yet this same Senator told the people of this country that
passage of this monstrous bill would ease tensions and stop
demonstrations.
This is the same Senator who has suggested, now that the Civil
Rights Bill is passed, that the President call the fifty state
Governors together to work out ways and means to enforce this rotten
measure.
There is no need for him to call on me. I am not about to be a
party to anything having to do with the law that is going to destroy
individual freedom and liberty in this country.
I am having nothing to do with enforcing a law that will destroy
our free enterpirse system.
I am having nothing to do with enforcing a law that will destroy
neighborhood schools.
I am having nothing to do with enforcing a law that will destroy
the rights of private property.
I am having nothing to do with enforcing a law that destroys your
right--and my right--to choose my neighbors--or to sell my house to
whomever I choose.
I am having nothing to do with enforcing a law that destroys the
labor seniority system.
I am having nothing to do with this so-called civil rights bill.
The liberal left-wingers have passed it. Now let them employ
some pinknik social engineers in Washington, D.C., To figure out what
to do with it.
The situation reminds me of the little boy looking at the
blacksmith as he hammered a red-hot horseshoe into the proper shape.
After minutes of hammering, the blacksmith took the horseshoe,
splashed it into a tub of water and threw it steaming onto a sawdust
pile.
The little fellow picked up the horseshoe, dropped it quickly.
"What's the matter, son," the blacksmith said, "is that shoe too
hot to handle?"
"No sir," the little boy said, "it just don't take me long to
look at a horseshoe."
It's not going to take the people of this country long to look at
the Civil Rights Bill, either.
And they are going to discard it just as quickly as the little
boy tossed away the still hot horseshoe.
But I am not here to talk about the separate provisions of the
Federal Penal Code. I am here to talk about principles which have
been overthrown by the enactment of this bill. The principles that
you and I hold dear. The principles for which our forefathers fought
and died to establish and to defend. The principles for which we came
here to rededicate ourselves.
But before I get into that, let me point out one important fact.
It would have been impossible for the American people to have been
deceived by the sponsors of this bill had there been a responsible
american press to tell the people exactly what the bill contained. If
they had had the integrity and the guts to tell the truth, this bill
would never have been enacted.
Whoever heard of truth put to the worst in free and open
encounter? We couldn't get the truth to the American people.
You and I know that that's extremely difficult to do where our
newspapers are owned by out-of-state interests. Newspapers which are
run and operated by left-wing liberals, Communist sympathizers, and
members of the Americans for Democratic Action and other Communist
front organizations with high sounding names.
However, we will not be intimidated by the vultures of the
liberal left-wing press. We will not be deceived by their lies and
distortions of truth. We will not be swayed by their brutal attacks
upon the character and reputation of any honest citizen who dares
stand up and fight for liberty.
And, we are not going to be influenced by intellectually bankrupt
editors of the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, one of whom has
presided over the dissolution of the once great Atlanta Constitution.
We can understand his bitterness in his bleak failure, but we
need not tolerate his vituperative and venomous attacks upon the
integrity and character of our people. These editors, like many other
left-wingers in the liberal press, are not influenced by tradition.
Theirs is a tradition of scalawags. Their mealy-mouthed platitudes
disgrace the honored memory of their predecessors--such men of
character as Henry Grady, Joel Chandler Harris, and Clarke Howell, men
who made the name of the Atlanta Constitution familiar in every
household throughout the South. They are not worthy to shine the
shoes of those great men.
In this connection I want to pay my highest respects and
compliments to the dedicated men of Atlanta and of Georgia who gave to
the people of their state what is destined to become the true voice of
the south. I have reference to the great newspaper the Atlanta Times.
It is a sad commentary on the period in which we live that it is
necessary for the people of a great city to start their own newspaper
in order to get the truth.
I hope you have some success in this venture and I assure you
that there will be many subscribers in the State of Alabama including
myself.
As I have said before, that Federal Penal Code could never have
been enacted into law if we had had a responsible press who was
willing to tell the american people the truth about what it actually
provides. Nor would we have had a bill had it not been for the United
States Supreme Court.
Now on the subject of the court let me make it clear that I am
not attacking any member of the United States Supreme Court as an
individual. However, I do attack their decisions, I question their
intelligence, their common sense and their judgment, I consider the
Federal Judiciary system to be the greatest single threat to
individual freedom and liberty in the United States today, and I'm
going to take off the gloves in talking about these people.
There is only one word to describe the Federal judiciary today.
That word is "lousy."
They assert more power than claimed by King George III, more
power than Hitler, Mussolini, or Khrushchev ever had. They assert the
power to declare unconstitutional our very thoughts. To create for us
a system of moral and ethical values. To outlaw and declare
unconstitutional, illegal, and immoral the customs, traditions, and
beliefs of the people, and furthermore they assert the authority to
enforce their decrees in all these subjects upon the American people
without their consent.
This is a matter that has been of great concern to many legal
authorities. The Council of State Governments composed of
representatives of the fifty States sponsored the proposal just last
year seeking to curb the powers of this body of judicial tyrants. The
Conference of Chief Justices of all of the state Supreme Courts of
this nation has also issued an historic statement urging judicial
restraint upon the Court.
This latter group said, "the value of a firm statement by us lies
in the fact that we speak as members of all the state appellate courts
with a background of many years experience in the determination of
thousands of cases of all kinds. Surely there are those who will
respect the declaration of what we believe.
"It has long been an American boast that we have a government of
laws and not of men. We believe that any study of recent decisions of
the supreme court will raise at least considerable doubt as to the
validity of that boast."
In addition, the state legislatures have for years flooded the
Congress with resolutions condemning usurpations of power by the
Federal judiciary.
The court today, just as in 1776, is deaf to the voices of the
people and their repeated entreaties: they have become arrogant,
contemptuous, highhanded, and literal despots.
It has been said that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts
absolutely. There was never greater evidence as to the proof of this
statement than in the example of the present Federal Judiciary.
I want to touch upon just a few of the acts of tyranny which have
been sanctioned by the United States Supreme Court and compare these
acts with the acts of tyranny enumerated in the Declaration of
Independence.
The colonists objected most strenuously to the imposition of
taxes upon the people without their consent.
Today, the Federal judiciary asserts the same tyrannical power to
levy taxes in Prince Edward County, Virginia, and without the consent
of the people. Not only that, but they insist upon the power to tell
the people for what purposes their money must be spent.
The colonists stated, "he has refused to pass other laws for the
accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would
relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right
inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only."
Today, the Federal judiciary, in one of its most recent
decisions, has deprived the American people of the right to use the
unit system of representation in their own state governments for the
accommodation of large districts of people, and has itself prescribed
the manner in which the people shall structure the legislative branch
of their own government, and have prescribed how the people shall
allocate the legislative powers of state government.
More than that they have even told the American people that we
may not, with a majority of the people voting for the measure, or with
two-thirds of those voting, or even if by unanimous consent, adopt a
provision in our state constitutions to allocate the legislative power
of state government in any manner other than as prescribed by the
court.
One justice of the United States Supreme Court said in this
connection, and I quote, "to put the matter plainly, there is nothing
in all the history of this Court's decisions which supports this
Constitutional rule. The Court's draconian pronouncement which makes
unconstitutional the legislatures of most of the fifty states finds no
support in the words of the constitution in any prior decision of this
court or in the 175-year political history of our Federal union . . .
These decisions mark a long step backward into the unhappy era where a
majority of the members of this court were thought by many to have
convinced themselves and each other that the demands of the
constitution were to be measured not by what it says buy by their own
notions of wise political theory."
Two other Justices of the Court said, "such a massive repudiation
of the experience of our whole past in asserting destructively novel
Judicial power demands analysis of the role of this Court and our
Constitutional scheme. . . It may well impair the Court's position as
the ultimate organ of the Supreme Law of the Land. . ."
The only reason it is the Supreme Law of the Land today is
because we have a President who cares so little for freedom that he
would send the armed forces into the states to enforce the dictatorial
decree.
Our colonist forefather had something to say about that too.
The Declaration of Independence cited as an act of tyranny the
fact that, ". . . Kept among us in times of peace standing armies
without the consent of the legislature."
Today, 188 years later, we have actually witnessed the invasion
of the State of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Alabama by the armed forces
of the United States and maintained in the state against the will of
the people and without consent of state legislatures.
It is a form of tyranny worse than that of King George III who
had sent mercenaries against the colonies because today the Federal
Judicial tyrants have sanctioned the use of brother against brother
and father against son by federalizing the National Guard.
In 1776 the colonists also complained that the monarch ". . . Has
incited domestic insurrections among us. . ."
Today, we have absolute proof that the Federal Department of
Justice has planned, supervised, financed and protected acts of
insurrection in the southern states, resulting in vandalism, property
damage, personal injury, and staggering expense to the states.
In 1776 it was charged that the monarchy had asserted power to
". . . Dissolve representative houses and to punish . . . For opposing
with manly firmness his invasions of the rights of the people. . . ."
Today, the Federal judiciary asserts the power not only to
dissolve state legislatures but to create them and to dissolve all
state laws and state judicial decrees, and to punish a state governor
by trial without jury ". . . For opposing with manly firmness his
invasions of the rights of the people. . . ."
The colonists also listed as acts of tyranny: ". . . The
erection of a multitude of new offices and sent hither swarms of
officers to harass our people and to eat out their substance. . .;"
". . . Suspending our own legislatures and declaring themselves
invested with the power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever;"
". . . Abolishing the free system of the English laws. . .;"
--it had "abdicated government here;"
--refusing to assent to the laws enacted by the people, ". . .
Laws considered most wholesome and necessary for the public good;"
--and ". . . For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of
trial by jury . . . ; For taking away our charters, abolishing our
most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally form of our government;
for suspending our own legislatures and declaring themselves invested
with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever."
The United States Supreme Court is guilty of each and every one
of these acts of tyranny.
Therefore, I echo the sentiments of our forefathers who declared:
"a prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may
define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people"
Ladies and gentlemen, I have listed only a few of the many acts
of tyranny which have been committed or specifically sanctioned by the
United States Supreme Court.
I feel it important that you should know and understand what it
is that these people are trying to do. The written opinions of the
court are filled with double talk, semantics, jargon, and meaningless
phrases. The words they use are not important. The ideas that they
represent are the things which count.
It is perfectly obvious from the left-wing liberal press and from
the left-wing law journals that what the court is saying behind all
the jargon is that they don't like our form of government.
They think they can establish a better one. In order to do so it
is necessary that they overthrow our existing form, destroy the
democratic institutions created by the people, change the outlook,
religion, and philosophy, and bring the whole area of human thought,
aspiration, action and organization, under the absolute control of the
court. Their decisions reveal this to be the goal of the liberal
element on the court which is in a majority at present.
It has reached the point where one may no longer look to judicial
decisions to determine what the court may do. However, it is possible
to predict with accuracy the nature of the opinions to be rendered.
One may find the answer in the Communist Manifesto.
The Communists are dedicated to the overthrow of our form of
government. They are dedicated to the destruction of the concept of
private property. They are dedicated to the object of destroying
religion as the basis of moral and ethical values.
The Communists are determined that all natural resources shall be
controlled by the central government, that all productive capacity of
the nation shall be under the control of the central government, that
the political sovereignty of the people shall be destroyed as an
incident to control of local schools. It is their objective to
capture the minds of our youth in order to indoctrinate them in what
to think and not how to think.
I do not call the members of the United States Supreme Court
Communists. But I do say, and I submit for your judgment the fact
that every single decision of the court in the past ten years which
related in any way to each of these objectives has been decided
against freedom and in favor of tyranny.
A politician must stand on his record. Let the Court stand on
its record.
The record reveals, for the past number of years, that the chief,
if not the only beneficiaries of the present Court's rulings, have
been duly and lawfully convicted criminals, Communists, atheists, and
clients of vociferous left-wing minority groups.
You can't convict a Communist in our Federal court system.
Neither can you convict one of being a Communist in Russia,
China, or Cuba. The point is that the United States Supreme Court
refuses to recognize the Communist conspiracy and their intent to
"bury us."
Let us look at the record further with respect to the court's
contribution to the destruction of the concept of God and the
abolition of religion.
The Federal court rules that your children shall not be permitted
to read the bible in our public school systems.
Let me tell you this, though. We still read the bible in Alabama
schools and as long as I am governor we will continue to read the
bible no matter what the Supreme Court says.
Federal courts will not convict a "demonstrator" invading and
destroying private property. But the Federal courts rule you cannot
say a simple "God is great, God is good, we thank Thee for our food,"
in kindergartens supported by public funds.
Now, let us examine the manner in which the Court has
continuously chipped away at the concept of private property.
It is contended by the left-wing liberals that private property is
merely a legal fiction. That one has no inherent right to own and
possess property. The courts have restricted and limited the right of
acquisition of property in life and have decreed its disposition in
death and have ruthlessly set aside the wills of the dead in order to
attain social ends decreed by the court. The court has substituted
its judgment for that of the testator based on social theory.
The courts assert authority even in decree the use of private
cemeteries.
They assert the right to convert a private place of business into
a public place of business without the consent of the owner and
without compensation to him.
One justice asserts that the mere licensing of a business by the
state is sufficient to convert it into control by the Federal
judiciary as to its use and disposition.
Another asserts that the guarantees of equal protection and due
process of law cannot be extended to a corporation.
In one instance, following the edicts of the United States
Supreme Court, a state Supreme Court has ordered and directed a
private citizen to sell his home to an individual contrary to the
wishes of the owner.
In California we witnessed a state Supreme Court taking under
advisement the question as to whether or not it will compel a bank to
make a load to an applicant on the basis of his race.
We have witnessed the sanction by the courts of confiscatory
taxation.
Let us take a look at the attitude of the court with respect to
the control of the private resources of the nation and the allocation
of the productive capacity of the nation.
The Supreme Court decisions have sanctioned enactment of the
civil rights bill.
What this bill actually does is to empower the United States
government to reallocate the entire productive capacity of the
agricultural economy covered by quotas and acreage allotments of
various types on the basis of race, creed, color and national origin.
It, in effect, places in the hands of the Federal government the
right of a farmer to earn a living, making that right dependent upon
the consent of the Federal government precisely as is the case in
russia.
The power is there. I am not in the least impressed by the
protestations that the government will use this power with benevolent
discretion.
We know that this bill authorizes the President of the united
states to allocate all defense productive capacity of this country on
the basis of race, creed, or color.
It does not matter in the least that he will make such
allocations with restraint. The face is that it is possible with a
politically dominated agency to punish and to bankrupt and destroy any
business that deals with the Federal government if it does not bow to
the wishes and demands of the president of the United States.
All of us know what the court has done to capture the minds of
our children.
The Federal judiciary has asserted the authority to prescribe
regulations with respect to the management, operation, and control of
our local schools. The second brown decision in the infamous school
segregation case authorized Federal district courts to supervise such
matters as teacher hiring, firing, promotion, the expenditure of local
funds, both administratively and for capital improvements, additions,
and renovations, the location of new schools, the drawing of school
boundaries, busing and transportation of school children, and, believe
it or not, it has asserted the right in the Federal judiciary to pass
judgment upon the curricula adopted in local public schools.
A comparatively recent Federal court decision in a Florida case
actually entered an order embracing each and every one of these
assertions of Federal supervision.
In ruling after ruling, the Supreme Court has overstepped its
constitutional authority. While appearing to protect the people's
interest, it has in reality become a judicial tyrant.
It's the old pattern. The people always have some champion whom
they set over them . . . And nurse into greatness. This, and no
other, is the foot from which a tyrant springs, after first appearing
as a protector.
This is another way of saying that the people never give up their
liberties . . . And their freedom . . . But under some delusion.
But yet there is hope.
There is yet a spirit of resistance in this country which will
not be oppressed. And it is awakening. And I am sure there is an
abundance of good sense in this country which cannot be deceived.
I have personal knowledge of this. Thirty-four percent of the
Wisconsin Democrats supported the beliefs you and I uphold and
expound.
Thirty percent of the Democrats in Indiana join us in fighting
this grab for executive power by those now in control in Washington.
And, listen to this, forty-three percent of the Democrats in
Maryland, practically in view of the nation's capital, believe as you
and I believe.
So, let me say to you today. Take heart. Millions of Americans
believe just as we in this great region of the United States believe.
I shall never forget last spring as I stood in the midst of a
great throng of South Milwaukee supporters at one of the greatest
political rallies I have ever witnessed.
A fine-looking man grabbed my hand and said:
"Governor, I've never been south of South Milwaukee, but I am a
Southerner!"
of course, he was saying he believed in the principles and
philosophy of the southern people . . . Of you here today and the
people of my state of Alabama.
He was right.
Being a southerner is no longer geographic. It's a philosophy
and an attitude.
One destined to be a national philosophy--embraced by millions of
Americans--which shall assume the mantle of leadership and steady a
governmental structure in these days of crises.
Certainly I am a candidate for President of the United States.
If the left-wingers do not think I am serious--let them consider
this.
I am going to take our fight to the people--the court of public
opinion--where truth and common sense will eventually prevail.
At this time, I have definite, concrete plans to get presidential
electors pledged to me on the ballots in the following states:
Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, New
York, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas,
Tennessee, and of course Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana.
Other states are under serious consideration.
A candidate for President must receive 270 electoral votes to
win.
The states I am definitely going to enter represent 218 electoral
votes.
Conservatives of this nation constitute the balance of power in
presidential elections.
I am a conservative.
I intend to give the American people a clear choice. I welcome a
fight between our philosophy and the liberal left-wing dogma which now
threatens to engulf every man, woman, and child in the United States.
I am in this race because I believe the American people have been
pushed around long enough and that they, like you and I, are fed up
with the continuing trend toward a socialist state which now subjects
the individual to the dictates of an all-powerful central government.
I am running for President because I was born free. I want to
remain free. I want your children and mine and our prosperity to be
unencumbered by the manipulations of a soulless state.
I intend to fight for a positive, affirmative program to restore
constitutional government and to stop the senseless bloodletting now
being performed on the body of liberty by those who lead us willingly
and dangerously close to a totalitarian central government.
In our nation, man has always been sovereign and the state has
been his servant. This philosophy has made the United States the
greatest free nation in history.
This freedom was not a gift. It was won by work, by sweat, by
tears, by war, by whatever it took to be--and to remain free. ,br>
Are we today less resolute, less determined and courageous than
our fathers and our grandfathers?
Are we to abandon this priceless heritage that has carried us to
our present position of achievement and leadership?
I say if we are to abandon our heritage, let it be done in the
open and full knowledge of what we do.
We are not unmindful and careless of our future. We will not
stand aside while our conscientious convictions tell us that a
dictatorial Supreme Court has taken away our rights and our liberties.
We will not stand idly by while the Supreme Court continues to
invade the prerogatives left rightfully to the states by the
constitution.
We must not be misled by left-wing incompetent news media that
day after day feed us a diet of fantasy telling us we are bigots,
racists and hate-mongers to oppose the destruction of the constitution
and our nation.
A left-wing monster has risen up in this nation. It has invaded
the government. It has invaded the news media. It has invaded the
leadership of many of our churches. It has invaded every phase and
aspect of the life of freedom-loving people.
It consists of many and various and powerful interests, but it
has combined into one massive drive and is held together by the
cohesive power of the emotion, setting forth civil rights as supreme
to all.
But, in reality, it is a drive to destroy the rights of private
property, to destroy the freedom and liberty of you and me.
And, my friends, where there are no property rights, there are no
human rights. Red China and Soviet Russia are prime examples.
Politically evil men have combined and arranged themselves
against us. The good people of this nation must now associate
themselves together, else we will fall one by one, an unpitied
sacrifice in a struggle which threatens to engulf the entire nation.
We can win. We can control the election of the president in
november.
Our object must be our country, our whole country and nothing but
our country.
If we will stand together--the people of this state--the people
of my state--the people throughout this great region--yes, throughout
the United States--then we can be the balance of power. We can
determine who will be the next president.
Georgia is a great state. Atlanta is a great city. I know you
will demonstrate that greatness in november by joining alabama and
other states throughout the south in electing the next president of
the United States.
We are not going to change anything by sitting on our hands
hoping that things will change for the better. Those who cherish
individual freedom have a job to do.
First, let us let ti be known that we intend to take the
offensive and carry our fight for freedom across this nation. We will
wield the power that is ours--the power of the people.
Let it be known that we will no longer tolerate the boot of
tyranny. We will no longer hide our heads in the sand. We will
reschool our thoughts in the lessons our forefathers knew so well.
We must destroy the power to dictate, to forbit, to require, to
demand, to distribute, to edict, and to judge what is best and enforce
that will of judgment upon free citizens.
We must revitalize a government founded in this nation on faith
in god.
I ask that you join with me and that together, we give an active
and courageous leadership to the millions of people throughout this
nation who look with hope and faith to our fight to preserve our
constitutional system of government with its guarantees of liberty and
justice for all within the framework of our priceless freedoms.
