Colonialism didn't leave these people with beliefs and practices that have
helped them be free nations. It requires education and morality, every day.
Those same colonialists would have done a similar process in our country if
there wasn't a plan for a government with law and order. We had colonies
that were separated and no rapid communication methods but they had the same
belief that they wanted to be a country away from what they had before coming to
this land. This land was not infiltrated with power and money fed leaders.
Fortunately, we had people that listened, read and had beliefs that were
internalized. When you read the Declaration of Independence and the
Constitution that has existed for 2 centuries, those men and their families had
conviction, integrity and a belief in God and history. Thank
goodness that we had people above themselves, then. We still have the choice of
electing good people or people that will make our country a risky place to be
born in. We could be a symbol of freedom. Some people don't understand
what that really means. It is not just a special place because of cars, homes,
schools, but of people.
