Let’s reclaim the America our founders imagined!

By Harve Sturm Commander JWV Post #202 & Martin Cohn Vice Commander JWV Post #202

America is the land of opportunity, a nation of freedom and prosperity. She is a nation we can always love and must always respect and protect.

We have gotten caught up in discussions of America’s flaws with culture content to despise the country that gave everything it has. America is imperfect, with a flawed past and uncertain future. However, she is, without question, a nation of freedom, dignity and possibility.

One of the many things worth loving about America is her history. Our country, like most countries, does not have a spotless past. But she does have a truly remarkable history. Our founders were educated men, well-versed in the disciplines of history and law.

Our country was built by men and women of faith, many fleeing to our shores seeking the freedom to worship God as they chose.

Our nation was built on a love for freedom, and our framers gave us a foundation to realize our goal. From these values, the American dream was born.
