I had long believed that we were between the apathy and complacency stages of our Republic. I had about given up hope that most of my fellow Americans had the courage to be vigilant to defend our Constitution and our liberties. Jefferson told us that we must hold our government officials back by the chains of the Constitution. Most Americans seem to care more about the winner of American Idol than the winner of the presidency of the U.S., much less what he is doing at the current moment to our Constitution.
I now have a new hope for my generation though. I have seen thousands across the country standing up in defense of our Constitutional rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Ron Paul seems to be bringing that trait out in record numbers among my generation. He said last night on Jay Leno, that he may have flaws as a person, but the message does not. It is the message of liberty that has been revived. Yes. I have a new hope.
