Anarchy and Seeking Peaceful Change

It is important to follow the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States and use them as the template of proper order of government on all levels.  It's important for the people, citizens of this nation, to know that they have been given the power and responsibility to provide a descent government for themselves.  If such a government fails to truly represent it's people then they may be elected out.  Every now and then a major change may need to be made.  Our Fathers knew this in light of their relationship with England.  They've provided the outline for peaceful transitioning of new government if it be the will of the people.  How important this piece is to the safety and continuation of this great nation.  In a modern time where we are having a spread of anarchy in the streets it's good to know that peaceful means of change is possible and in fact advocated by our Fathers.

Such has been the case with Vernon, New Jersey.  They have transformed their government.  A group of citizens recognized the corruption, organized and set forth to change their entire system of local government.  They did so under the Faulkner Act.

May we all remember our civic and national responsibility to tend to our own government for the sake of our happiness and accountability.  Today is the day to vote!  For those that have put the pencil to the paper for my name I thank you tremendously.  For those who did not yet did go to the ballot box I thank you immeasurably for the discharge of your duty.
