Unity - America’s Superpower
America’s greatest strength is not her military. Not her markets. Not her technology. America’s superpower is unity. Not uniformity. Not sameness. Not forced consensus. Unity.

That idea was revolutionary then, and it remains revolutionary now: that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are inalienable rights — endowed by our Creator — and that no government may ri
