America’s true greatness lies not so much in her military might or economic power but in her people of good character who honor her best ideals and upon whom the very survival of freedom depends.
Each of us has a duty to keep the dream of freedom alive, and that’s the message of “America, My Home” (Anthem for the Millennium), which my wife and I wrote at the turn of the new millennium.
If people of character are given opportunity and freedom, greatness and prosperity inevitably follows. When people abuse the freedoms they have and behave recklessly and irresponsibly, all of society suffers.
