American economic progress... silenced

"[T]he mighty music of American economic progress has been all but silenced by [what has gone on in Washington]. [Elections] will determine whether the nation and the world will ever hear that great sound; will determine if the dinner table of your home and the supermarkets of your neighborhood will ever again be places where plans can be made and necessities purchased without the gnawing doubt and, yes, fear, brought by… inflation and unemployment." -- Ronald Reagan (1980)

We created government as our servant, not our master

"[In America], we gave birth to an entirely new concept in man's relation to man. We created government as our servant, beholden to us and possessing no powers except those voluntarily granted to it by us. Now a self-anointed elite in our nation's capital would have us believe we are incapable of guiding our own destiny. They practice government by mystery, telling us it's too complex for our understanding. Believing this, they assume we might panic if we were to be told the truth about our problems.

"Why should we become frightened? No people who have ever lived on this earth have fought harder, paid a higher price for freedom, or done more to advance the dignity of man than the living Americans - the Americans living in this land today. There isn't any problem we can't solve if government will give us the facts. Tell us what needs to be done. The get out the way and let us have at it." -- Ronald Reagan (1976)

Why TERM LIMITS are essential to reform

I have a CURRENT REALITY TREE (CRT -- one of the Thinking Processes tools) entitle "Washington Establishment" that clearly depicts why term limits are essential to achieve any long-lasting and meaningful political reform in the U.S.

Contact me at rcushing(at)ceoexpress(dot)com to request a PDF copy of the CRT.

My hope is that there will be wide distribution and discussion of this logical tree in support of term limits.

Thanks. I hope to hear from many of you soon.
