They are, in short, "We the people," this breed called Americans.”

“No matter how you feel about your extended family or family gatherings you will be attending. This is because now the ultimate reason for attending family gatherings is for your children to have the time of their lives with their cousins. Little kids love their cousins.

Cousins are the barometers of how fun a family get-together will be. “Are the cousins going to be there? Fun!”

“There is no task of greater importance than to give our children the very best preparation for the demands of an ominous future, a preparation which aims at the methodical cultivation of their spiritual and their moral gifts.

“I do think that the badmouthing and alienating of a child from a parent is one of the few unforgivable sins.

To win, we will need to keep building the movement, networking with one another, planning, strategizing, and moving forward. Our children's futures, and those of their unborn children, are at stake.”
