It is possible to read the history of this country as one long struggle to extend the liberties established in our Constitution to everyone in America.

The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality.

I'd read up on the history of our country and I'd become fascinated with the story of the Alamo. To me it represented the fight for freedom, not just in America, but in all countries.

The history of America is to expand civil liberties in a responsible and civil manner. We need to remember that our wonderful Democracy with its freedoms has been working.

Even for southerners, Arkansans are amazingly friendly and extend hospitality to all strangers with astonishing openness. You couldn't find a pretension in that state if you hunted from Jonesboro to El Dorado.

America's honor, your honor is at stake. Go out and preserve the greatest country in the history of the world.
