The year is 2020. The world has changed. The uncertainties are real and cannot be ignored, but we must have the long view. We must not abandon the future while being distracted by the present. We must remember who we are, and strive to preserve the gift of freedom. We must clearly articulate and practice what we believe.

America is…

Freedom, Trust in God, Responsibility,

Self Determination, Justice for All, Dignity,

All Created Equal, Striving for Improvement,

Creativity, Opportunity, Integrity, Achievement.

If we live our lives according to these principles, ideals, and values…

America will be a better place,

Real freedom will be realized,

Opportunity, Creativity and Innovation will be greater,

America will be stronger, and

We will come closer to achieving a more perfect union.

Please join us as we give thanks for the blessings of liberty.

In appreciation of your friendship,

Bradford L. Sims
