Why I joined Unity08:

We need to focus on the 2 key big overarching nation-buster intergenerational issues our nation faces in the next decades - Comprehensive Entitlement Reform; Delineating a Clear, Consistent, Integrated, Comprehensive Grand International Strategy for America for the 21st century...................................... “Any message we may try to bring to others will be effective only if it is in accord with what we are to ourselves, and if this is something sufficiently impressive to compel the respect and confidence of a world which, despite all its material difficulties, is still more ready to recognize and respect spiritual distinction than material opulence.” - George F. Kennan ........................................................................ “You are saying,” the politician replies, “that we ought to sit back and do nothing.” “On the contrary I believe we can do a great deal. But ought implies can. We have no moral obligation to do what we cannot do.” - Rory Stewart
