REPUBLICAN CREED

I DO NOT CHOOSE to be a common man.
It is my right to be uncommon.

IF I CAN SEEK OPPORTUNITY, not security,
I want to take the calculated risk to dream and to build,
to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for dole.

I PREFER THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE to guaranteed security.
The thrill of fulfillment, to the state of calm utopia.

I WILL NOT TRADE FREEDOM FOR BENEFICENCE,
nor my dignity for a handout.

I WILL NEVER COWER BEFORE ANY MASTER, SAVE MY GOD.
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid.
To think and act for myself; enjoy the benefit of my creations.
To face the whole world boldly and say,

*I AM A FREE AMERICAN.*
