The American's Creed by William T. Page; Clerk of the House; 1917:
"I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a Republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots gave their lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

Angry Voters Won on June 8 by Steven Frank..comment
from California Political News:
While anger is apparent, so is ignorance of who, what, why, where, when, and How standard of principles exist! Throwing out the baby with the bathwater is as useless as allowing the 'current State and Federal opposition-groups' to make continue decisions as legislative either from Pelosi or Reid or from the current Democratic (in name only)CA State Legislature re: 'watch-dogging' United States Finances, 'Patient Protection (it doesn't) and Affordable Act(are you laughing yet?! except for the sickening feeling in your stomach!), carbon chips, Global Warming, using our tax money to create jobs which demonstrably Does Not Work; increasing taxes, or Energy With Science Designed to support the Political, Progressive Agenda.
Never-Never any relation to fact or to The Scientific Method; and always argued from single specific to general while general is what defines the actions, or lack of same, by Human Nature. Human Nature is the subject of our founder's writing to protect and defend the individual because: "If men were angels, we wouldn't need government.(James Madison)" and "Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.(Mark Twain)" Politics isn't easy. Life isn't easy. Maintaining principles and still holding office isn't easy, but Republican's try and against the odds!
Voters forget to ask: Who has been upholding the principles of small government, lower taxes, decreased spending, personal responsibility = integrity of belief in The Universal Truth the Progressive-socialists must deny? When voters refuse to see the role of the Republican Party Elected Representatives at Both the Federal and The State Level - outnumbered, but still using every method possible to slow or stop the Progressive Socialists from continued damage in Central CA, in ObamaCare, in the United States Financial System, or in the Private Oil Business taking a huge risk-benefit in the Gulf - our closet friend, support, Allie in spirit and belief who's last election reflected America more than America did!
The Republicans can be distracted, as can commentators, and many who do not heed lessons that our own history has taught.
Prop. 14 is an excellent example of Democracy-Progressive in today's usage - that John Adams and James Madison disparaged: "Remember Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy that did not commit suicide."; and from Federalist #10 "Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security, or the rights of property; and have, in general, been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.". Prop. 14 is a measure of a candidate ONLY! It counts numbers! It cares not one wit about who the Candidate is; what the individual represents; what the individual is willing to stand for or equally - stand against! The Candidate can be of any party that exists..or not...doesn't matter! The Single, only thing that matters is the most numbers for #1 and #2 spots! Prop.14 is the most empty-headed piece of writing that has hit white paper since Frederic Bastiat's "Property and Plunder" in THE LAW! It represents another tool to dilute the power of 1 man : 1 vote! Prop.14 is a strange contrast to the goal of 2011 redistricting which is the balance of 1 man : 1 vote taking into consideration location, race, and many other aspects of demographics to protect 1 man : 1 vote!
Recommend to readers: Continue to read or reread and study the founders work on Both of the Twin Documents with the original writings directly from the Founders. Don't stand still until you can demonstrate to your own person the importance of the individual - his honor - his belief in God and the Son of God - along with: Who was Judas - Do You Recognize him-Today!?
