Fighting For National Sovereignty: End of America as We Know it

Some might say that America died in November 2008. It is true that it was then that many of the things we took for granted started disappearing. It is also true that the Democratic party denounced God then. We saw the evidence of the loss of national sovereignty more clearly then as well. The concepts of globalism and embracing a global economy really didn't take off until then. We could deceive ourselves before then, thinking that it was only one sector of society that was being affected by the globalists.

Some may recall vague that some were predicting a collapse as early as the mid-1970s when the North American Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was established. You may not recall but I do all the commercials about the textile workers that lost their jobs because of NAFTA. You may also not recall the movies that focused on what happened when greedy corporations shipped jobs overseas. I do. I should have realized then but was way too young, what was happening to our country.

I often wonder what would have happened if the NAFTA agreement was rejected when it was first proposed. Would those thousands of jobs that were lost still be there? Would America not be in the position it's in now? We did lose our soul when those jobs went overseas. That is a sad but true fact. Today many jobs out there are with foreign companies that are doing business on American soil.

It is a well-known fact that globalization is a huge factor in what's currently happening in America. We lost our national identity and our national pride to the highest bidder. I admittedly did think before our current president got into office that this was it. There would be no more America. We would continue the downward spiral that the past president and all the other presidents before him had established to make us part of a new world order.

Unfortunately, some of us are only waking up to the fact that our national sovereignty is in peril. Sixteen states have wholeheartedly embraced this new world order and are eager to sacrifice their freedoms to be a part of it. If more of the states decide to join them in this endeavor, we will see the end of America as we know it. When I think about it, I do realize that we do need to fight for national sovereignty with everything we have in us. Our future depends on it.

The Forgotten Man: Abraham Lincoln

Today is Abraham Lincoln's 210th birthday. You might not have known it though because it was deemed that his life isn't worth celebrating anymore. Martin Luther King Jr. is celebrated more than Abraham Lincoln. His birthday is a National Holiday. When I think about all that Abraham Lincoln accomplished during his presidency, I get upset that no one seems to care anymore. He is, except for a few states, most notably his home state of Illinois, a forgotten man. It just doesn't seem right somehow that we dropped the Lincoln's Birthday National Holiday to combine it with all the other presidents. We really don't even celebrate the birthday of our first president, George Washington!

Yes, I do believe in civil rights. I also have a good understanding of all Martin Luther King Jr. did. I can't help thinking however that things might have gone differently if Abraham Lincoln hadn't done what he did to free the slaves. His strong leadership was the only thing that made a difference. He wasn't able to finish what he started, cut down as he was by an assassin's bullet. Abraham Lincoln set the stage for Martin Luther King Jr. and many others before him. It does seem a shame that for most of the country he is a forgotten man.

I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. Many people don't even know the father of our country anymore. Those who should be teaching this have managed to water down the significance of what George Washington and our founding fathers have done. I know that many are trying to downplay American history so it will be easier to accept a new world government. Yet, there is some light. God has not given up on America. God has seen us through many trials. Lord, help us remember and embrace the good that our country has wrought on its shores.
