“If we are to avoid that catastrophe [a nuclear World War III], a system of world order — preferably a system of world government — is mandatory. The proud nations someday will see the light and, for the common good and their own survival, yield up their precious sovereignty, just as America's thirteen colonies did two centuries ago. When we finally come to our senses and establish a world executive and parliament of nations, thanks to the Nuremburg precedent we will already have in place the fundamentals for the third branch of government, the judiciary.” IfsWorldTwoWarLightGovernmentAmericaOrderNationsCommonCenturyProudSurvivalThirdsFundamentalsNuclearSensesThanksWar Of The WorldsBranchesSomedayExecutivesYieldWorld War IiWorld War ICatastropheSovereigntyParliamentColonyWorld OrderCommon GoodThirteenPrecedentJudiciaryWorld GovernmentBranches Of Government Author:Walter Cronkite

“Well, it's always, though, safer in politics to avoid risk, to just kind of go along with the status quo. But I didn't get into government to do the safe and easy things. A ship in harbor is safe, but that's not why the ship is built. Politics isn't just a game of competing interests and clashing parties. The people of America expect us to seek public office and to serve for the right reasons. And the right reason is to challenge the status quo and to serve the common good.” PeopleWellsKindReasonGovernmentAmericaGamesPoliticsEasyInterestChallengesPartyCommonRiskSafeOfficeBuiltShipsCompetingStatus QuoHarborsCommon GoodEasy ThingsPublic Office Author:Sarah Palin
“What you do is as important as anything government does. I ask you to seek a common good beyond your comfort; to defend needed reforms against easy attacks; to serve your nation, beginning with your neighbor. I ask you to be citizens: citizens, not spectators; citizens, not subjects; responsible citizens, building communities of service and a nation of character.” DoeImportantCharacterGovernmentAsksNationsEasyCommunityCommonSubjectsBuildingNeededCitizensComfortResponsibleNeighborReformSpectatorsCommon GoodBuilding Community Author:George W.
