DO YOU SUPPORT WHAT WAS SAID BY THE PRESIDENT? I DO.



Read carefully. Drink in the words here. Think about their meaning.
---------------------------------

"There can be no divided allegiance here.

Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all.

We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language ... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
---------------------------------

Those bold words were spoken by the President of the United States of America. In 1907. President Teddy Roosevelt - a brave and forward thinking man who cared deeply about this country. He gets credit for developing the National Parks system which has provided and protected so much land for millions to enjoy. But for the statements above, which were made in 1907, he gets my respect.

Our country faces myriad challenges, but none so great or as wide-reaching as controlling who gets into the system. President Roosevelt understood that fact when he spoke those words 99 years ago. They resonate today with amazing clarity. Read them again and then call or write your senators and other elected officials. We are the UNITED States of America. One flag, one people.
