Are You Fired Up About America? Notify Nothing Like Honesty

One day I was tuning up and down the radio dial as I drove along the Interstate. From time to time, I landed on the talk show callers who were simply appalled at the direction America is going.

They were frustrated that so many important issues were either being ignored or glossed over by federal, state and local government. It was clear that many people were very interested, but felt powerless to do anything.

At that moment I decided to design some t-shirt with patriotic messages and test them for sale at public events. Boy it worked! Generally we have created our tent and sell dozens of shirts for people who thank us left and right to put their feelings into words on a t-shirt you can wear and be proud.

And this brings us to a point even more important. The Americans have a First Amendment right to speak their minds. Is not the Fifth Amendment or the Thirteenth Amendment - the first and perhaps most important.

But while speaking your mind is clearly the basis of what it means to be Americans, the vast majority of us feel we can not make a difference. Therefore, do not even try.

Again and again I heard from people who are laid off about important issues, but keep their thoughts to themselves. Often mistakenly feel you are the only one who feels that way.

After wearing one of my shirts soon see the end of our tees in order to stem the tide of division and empower those who are willing to STAND.

Instead of going their separate driveway, focusing on being politically correct, people enthusiastically sharing ideas, passions, and concerns. And guess what, folks? This is where the real solutions come.

We must toil in our lives, and we hope all the important issues for the government. There are a lot of good people in government, but not all good ideas. And government, by its nature, can not solve problems without the help of its citizens.

So, talk! Write a letter to the editor, call a radio talk show, presented a website, and tell others what you think. And, most importantly calling elected to let them know that you are alive and well. You'll feel better. You will have more impact. And you will live the life of a true American patriot.
