Coordinated Illumination: Are you a Communist, or a Citizen?

“Scarcely have our minds been able to emerge from the astonishment into which one stroke of parliamentary thunder has involved us, before another more heavy, and more alarming, is fallen on us. Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers, too plainly prove a deliberate and systematical plan of reducing us to slavery. When the representative body have lost the confidence of their constituents, when they have notoriously made sale of their most valuable rights, when they have assumed to themselves powers which the people never put into their hands, then indeed their continuing in office becomes dangerous to the state, and calls for an exercise of the power of dissolution.”
-Thomas Jefferson, A Summary View of the Rights of British America. 1774

Are you a Communist, or a Citizen?

Here's an interesting 9 minute video; an archaeoligical artifact from a mere 50 years ago...

"We are living in an era marked by the growth of socialism."

"... the presence in America of socialists and communist propogandists, dedicated to the establishment of a new order. The communist 5th columnists among us are working for a world dictatorship. To accomplish this, their strategy is to undermine the confidence of our people in the American system and the principles on which it stands. The socialists among us seek to bring about a gradual chang in our system, by gradually destroying the principle of private ownership of property, and substituting the socialist principle of government ownership."

"But let's put the full challenge in a few words: The world is caught in an era of socialist expansion. Most of the nations are effected. And America is a target. In fact, the number one target of both the socialists and the communists. If we permit our great system to crumble through the apathy of our citizenship, we shall lose not only our our freedom but our prosperity ..."

What are our "Obligations of Citizenship"?
1. Understand the American way of life and what makes it tick.
2. Understand communism and their tactics.
3. Understand socialism and it's disguises.
4. Understand propoganda techniques of communism / socialism.
5. Take interest in public schools and colleges, and what is taught.
6. Take interest in local and state government.
7. Strive for spiritual growth.
8. Dedicate a part of your everyday life to citizenship.

"... in our republic, authority is surrounded by an ingenious system of checks and balances that prevents autocratic or dictatorial rule- That is, if we maintain the Constitution as our basic law."

Imagine where we'll be in another 50 years.
