After reading these quotes from famous American leaders both past and present, think about your nation. What has happened? Where are we going as a country? I dare say that it is the right direction. Remember that the highway to destruction is a downhill road.  Consider Christ as you think about America. Consider the foundation that was laid to set up the structure of America today. Daily, the government is demoralizing and de-sensitizing us to the actual truths that formed this great nation. We must get back to the roots of America. This is our CAUSE!
