It is imperative we voters understand just how much is at stake in our choice of candidates in the upcoming election.

Arthur C. Brooks, president of the American Enterprise Institute, recently wrote, “We are in a struggle between two competing visions of America’s future. In one, America will continue to be a unique and exceptional nation, organized around the principles of free enterprise. On the other (Obama’s plan), America will move toward a European-style station grounded in expanding bureaucracies, increasing income redistribution and government-controlled corporations. These competing visions are not reconcilable. We must choose.”

We must also fight for a return of our moral values.
