"This nation is lost without a ‘code’ to unite us to a common cause."

Much of that 'code' is articulated in the Declaration of Independence.

Yet, 50% + 1 have decided that the Declaration of Independence is irrelevant. They have decided it is better to be ‘Dependent’.
We complain about the government, but we have allowed 50% + 1 to turn our Republic into a ‘Mobocracy’ following de Tocqueville’s prediction almost to the letter. I do not recognize the ‘United States of America’ any longer.

And even better was this......"Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other," John Adams declared.Adams, John, message to the Officers of the First Brigade of the Third Division of the Militia of Massachusetts, October 11, 1798. "Religion and virtue are the only foundations, not only of republicanism and all free government, but of social felicity under all governments and in all the combinations of human society."Adams, John, Letter to Dr. Benjamin Rush, August 28, 1811.
