Don’t get me wrong he did well in this but do you know why they called him Red?

I saw this (live?) when I was a child and I still think it is wonderful. Share it with all children (adults as well)

The best explanation of the pledge ever! Good night and God bless!

Even as a kid, I would tear up every time we said the pledge. I miss the world I used to live in where saying I am an American was something people said with pride in their voices, not an apology.

Where God walked with us in our churches, our towns, our schools, as well as our hearts every day and no one was ashamed to say God bless you.

Where twilight was the time porch lights came on, fireflies came out and mothers called us back in from the neighborhood for a family dinner.....not a time to fear or walk quickly to avert danger.

Was it perfect? No. Was there ugliness? Yes. But there was a foundation. A safety net of family, church, and government that made you feel that you could face anything...

Sometimes I feel like I've overstayed my welcome...I turned 55 today. And I'm pretty sure that I'll never see that America again. Even more devastating to me is that my children and their children may not see it either unless something so huge, so earth shattering, so miraculous happens that it rocks the foundations of our nation to the core....

Two strokes later at 55 years of age, I'll keep hoping and working toward that end. Here's hoping. God bless you and our “one nation, under God.”
