America is too great for small dreams.

All you have to do is look up on the Fourth of July.

And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.

More than a decade ago, a Supreme Court decision literally wiped off the books of fifty states statutes protecting the rights of unborn children. Abortion on demand now takes the lives of up to 1.5 million unborn children a year. Human life legislation ending this tragedy will some day pass the Congress, and you and I must never rest until it does. Unless and until it can be proven that the unborn child is not a living entity, then its right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness must be protected.

Those who won our independence believed liberty to be the secret of happiness and courage to be the secret of liberty.

I have one yardstick by which I test every major problem-and that yardstick is: Is it good for America?
