Dear US Government:
The recent and ongoing tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico, and your reluctant and seemingly ineffective response on our behalf and in regards to such, has brought me to a reflective posture; one that is recalling the backbone of this democracy:
“We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” ~ Preamble to the US Constitution, 1787
The citizens of the US have given you the temporary luxury of leading. If you fail, your luxuries default to our rights. If you do not lead effectively, we will most surely and swiftly move in a different direction. While these decisions may be called “politically incorrect” at best, we rest assured in knowing that the decisions are indeed ours to make.
… we care little about party affiliations
… we care little about political careers and legacies
Our focus: Choice and the wellbeing of our families, our friends, and the future of this nation.
If you continue to make decisions that oblige the wellbeing of our focus for the sake of yours, we will revoke your power.
… We will take-back your opportunity to make ill-fated decisions for us, and we will again make decisions for ourselves; decisions more aligned with our focus.
… We will enact our rights as citizens of the Unites States of America.
Your power is temporary and loaned to you freely. Make a change, or find yourself hoping for one.
Yours truly,
Michael J. Sharp (father, husband, and citizen)
