From the text:
On a warm summer day in 1969 I sprinted barefoot in exhilaration across the Mojave Desert with my best friend, oblivious to the blistering hot sand between my toes. Neil Armstrong had just walked on the moon, and there was nothing America could not accomplish.
Like many other days in our youth we talked about America, and shared a common cultural literacy grounded in the admiration of our fore fathers, the strength of our military, our vast natural resources, and a government that for the most part left us alone in our individual pursuit of happiness and the American Dream.
It was the best of times, and as far as we were concerned, America was the greatest country the world had ever known.
We knew in our hearts that we were lucky to be born in America, but that was before the insidious powers of corruption, greed, and the loss of our moral compass eroded the foundation of this nation, and undermined the efforts of her patriots and patriarchs.
For a short time we walked the earth like kings. And while I continue to believe America is a great nation, and may in fact have her best days ahead, the die has been cast. In my opinion, we are on the verge of massive civil unrest, economic collapse, and eventually the Balkanization of “These United States” into regional nation states, trapped in mediocrity and poverty.
