SPEAKER 02 :
The Crawford Stand with the president of Crawford Media Group, Don Crawford. These days we hear a lot about the so-called Great Reset. All this week, Mr. Crawford sets the tone for not a Great Reset, but a recommitment to America.
SPEAKER 01 :
There is not, nor has there ever been, a nation like the United States of America. I am so blessed. to have lived here all my life and to have been a citizen of this great, great country. America is a nation conceived in freedom. It treasures and fosters democracy. It is a constitutional nation, and it is a nation where, as Dr. Martin Luther King so well said, if, in fact, its citizens live up to that constitution and treasure it and believe in it, and enforce it, all men and women who are created equal can live a life to the fullest. I believe that. Do you? No matter our problems, we have the greatest opportunity to live as free men and women in the history of mankind. A real America. Right-thinking men and women thank God every day, every day, for the privilege of living in America and being an American. Do you? Do you thank God every day for where you live, Are you proud to be an American? Are you? There seem to be so many people today who are not proud to be an American. No matter our problems, we can fix them. Let’s not throw out the baby with the bathwater. And since this great country can do so much for you, remember the words of President John F. Kennedy, who admonished us to ask not, said Kennedy, what America can do for you, ask what you can do for America. That, in my opinion, should be the motto of every real American. Thank you, President Kennedy. And our American Constitution. What a document. Please read it and understand what you can. Do your best to understand it. Study anything which helps you understand the incredible rights and privileges and duties which are yours as a citizen and as an American. Think always about the First Amendment to that Constitution, perhaps the finest words and rights and privileges and opportunities and expressions of freedom ever written in the history of mankind. The First Amendment of America’s Constitution allows you full and unabridged freedom of religion and speech and press and assembly and petition. Nowhere else in the world, nowhere else is that guaranteed. These precious freedoms are the very best that can be offered to any human being, and they are essential. They are priorities. They are guaranteed to every man and woman by this Constitution and its very precious First Amendment. Read it. Read that amendment. Know it, treasure it, and thank God for it. We are a nation of the rule of law, or we should be. It is watered down today, often ignored or even eliminated in this woke and radical and growing anti-American day and age. Lawlessness in the end times, says the scripture, prevails and runs rampant. And that is happening today. So, my fellow Americans, stand up Stand up to lawlessness and insist upon the rule of law. Insist upon equal justice for all. Equal justice for all. From the president on down. Of course there is risk in so doing, but the reward is well worth the risk, don’t you think? Where else would you want to live? Right and wrong. Ah, right and wrong. There are those today that think there is no such thing as right or wrong, or truth. There is no absolute truth, so said our former President Obama. We live in the age of post-truth, he said. Whatever that means says a lot about him, doesn’t it? This is the day and age of the lie. The lie. Oh, it’s everywhere. And that is something which is not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. We live in a culture where there is no such thing as absolute truth, and consequently the lie, that which is not the truth, prevails. And that is wrong. That is so dead wrong. There is right and wrong. There is truth. And never forget the words of our Lord Jesus Christ. I am the way, the truth, and the life. I am the truth. said our Lord Jesus Christ. Believe in him and you will know the truth indeed. So, my fellow Americans, stand tall for America. Protect it. Our founding fathers were willing to die for it. Are you? Am I? Are there enough Americans left who are willing to do whatever is required to protect and defend the greatest land in the history of mankind? Are there? Are you one? Oh, I do hope and pray you are. So much of the world despises, even hates America. Perhaps that is because we live hypocritically. We do not stand tall for our ideals, our freedoms, and our way of life. And we are not consistent, constantly compromising, and so often not holding individuals and nations accountable for their actions. We the people need to redefine who we are as a nation. and make those ideals, those values and standards clear, and stand for them, stand up for them, no matter the cost. Now more than ever, are you willing to do that? Are you? I ask in this great year that you get politically involved. All of us get involved with our government and make sure it runs right with the right people. We need to be more critically involved as citizens of America and Christians, and especially Christians. We need to be active in government. We need to take positions of authority locally and to make certain our neighborhoods, towns, and cities are safe, law-abiding, and true to American ideals and our Constitution and our rule of law and our way of life. We, the people, need to stand up Stand up. We need to make certain right-thinking and right-acting men and women are elected to office, men and women who will truly represent us, and even more importantly, our Constitution and our rule of law and all that America should be. We, the people, need to make certain that happens. For, if not, we need to speak out critically so, aggressively, and withhold financing, and withhold our vote, And where necessary, exercise the process of recall. Get them out of office and do whatever we can to get elected or appointed officials worthy of citizen trust. Get those unworthy out of office. We, the people, need to stand up now before it’s too late. And pay attention to these wokers, these progressives, these anti-Americans. Know who they are. for they are everywhere, everywhere. They are determined to effectuate radical change, or even in so many cases, the destruction of the American way of life. They would water down or eliminate much of our Constitution, curtail our freedoms, control family and education, and change the way we live, even the way we think and believe. Oh, please, my fellow Americans, please don’t let it happen. Time is short. America needs right-thinking Americans in action now more than ever. Be proud. Be proud to be an American. Be proud to be a citizen of the real America, the constitutional America, the just America, with its freedoms. And be proud to stand tall as America beckons, asking you now more than ever to be a soldier in the fight for freedom. Wear the flag. Salute the military. Proudly sing and respect the national anthem, Stand Up for America. And pray that God will bless America, convicted of its wrongdoings, and once again make it the city on the hill, the shining light among nations, a country safe and protected for us today and for our descendants tomorrow. So let us proudly sing, God bless America. America. God bless America, the land that I love.
