Get Out and VOTE!
Voter Registration Nears End For Texans ..........
As the Presidential Election of 2004 is upon us this November 2nd, one of the greatest rights given to us as Americans is our Right to VOTE. As the polls close and the dust settles with the election results coming in, let us remember and remind ourselves no matter what the results, how great it is to live in this country of ours. Let us be reminded of the last four years and all we have come through together as Americans. Win or loose, Republican or Democrat, Americans must stand tall and together as one America, united in keeping us safe. A famous American Thomas Payne said, “If there is trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.”
I believe the battles we fight today are the victories for our children’s peace tomorrow.

This election cycle like all elections brought us politicians with great promises and optimisms for the future. Let us not forget the promises that were made and let us hold their feet to the fire to keep those promises.
The people we send to Washington have a way of getting lost along the way and they tend to forget who and why we elected them. If all of those elected would throw a leg over a bike and ride to Washington instead of flying, I really believe more of them would find the same appreciation for this country as the “God Fearing American Biker!” Something about the wind in your hair, fresh air in your lungs and a country back road that seems to never end brings it all together. America is not just a country, it’s bigger than that, America is in the heart and sole of its people. Something that is tugging at the heart of many Americans, especially those who “Ride to Live” and “Live to Ride” is the Patriot Act. The Patriot Act “must go away!”
The Patriot Act was created in a time of great despair and need to give our country a sense of security and to help protect Americans from immediate threats already inside our borders. That time has now past, America is now stronger than ever and it is time for us to rise up and take back the Rights of Freedom we have lost. There is so much power entrusted too government within the Patriot Act it will be tough to get Washington Politicians to let go.
If You "Live to Ride" and "Ride to Live"
We must all come together to fight and end the Patriot Act!
If You "Live to Ride" and "Ride to Live"
We must educate ourselves and others continuously to protect the freedoms we enjoy!
If You "Live to Ride" and "Ride to Live"
We must find a way to bring those not in the fight to come and join us in our fight to preserve the freedoms and choices given to us by our forefathers.
Samuel Adams said, I Quote, “The Liberties of our Country, the Freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending against all hazards: and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks,” End Quote.
Samuel Adams could have never imagined a hazard such as the Patriot Act or the other Liberties our Washington Representatives have taken away.
