America the Beautiful...

Thank God we live in such a great country. With many beautiful places and great people everywhere. No matter how we are attacked, whether by those who wish to destroy us from within or outside our borders, as long as we realize that we are Americans and if we stick together, no enemy shall prevail.

It is time for us to find common ground and instead of hating one another because we can't agree on some issues, let's find out what we can agree upon and move forward.

As Abraham Lincoln said in his 1858 acceptance speech for nomination of the Republican US Senate seat in Illinois, "A house divided against itself cannot stand" is as true today as it was back then.

God Bless America and long may our flag fly over our great nation.
