I think these words, slightly modified by me in the brackets, give us the direction and the motivation that we need now: " that this nation, under God [with freedom of religion to each have our faith values recognized and respected], shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." No one of us, nor any group of us, is expected to complete the task of repairing our broken nation. However, we are obligated to begin the work. And the time is now. 🇺🇸
