There was not the divisiveness we see today.
There was no such thing as RED STATES and BLUE STATES.
We were THE UNITED STATES.
Our young men and women went off to war so that we could protect our way of life from the Nazi peril.
Our bombers and fighter planes were being built by women who went into the factories to build the weapons needed to win.
They had the popular nickname, “Rosie the Riveter!”
We were all together then, fighting shoulder-to-shoulder for Democracy.
Now, many of our politicians don’t think we need Democracy anymore.
So, our Democracy is under attack again not from without, but from within.
And our allies around the world are watching to see if the world’s greatest Democracy can survive.
They are worried.
We should be too.
If not today, when?
