The Sam Adams Alliance is in a birthday mood; they've launched a new web site, "I Believe in the Constitution."
About the alliance and the site:
"At Sam Adams, we work to educate the public about the personal and economic freedoms they enjoy in the United States," said Yvonne Ralsky, executive director of the Sam Adams Alliance. “We hope signing the pledge and sharing it with friends and family will inspire conversations about freedom and citizenship on Facebook, Twitter, and around dinner tables across America well beyond this Constitution Day."
The petition on the site reads as follows:
We the People of the United States, in Order to maintain a more perfect Union, believe in the Constitution, as it was written, and as the Founders intended it to be understood.
Therefore, we, the undersigned, pledge to support the Constitution and the values of individual liberty and limited government in order to "establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty" to ourselves and future generations.
Formerly Citizenship Day, the holiday was renamed--a good move--Constitution Day in 2004.
