We are Americans. We recognize bravery, and the virtuous fight for freedom and independence. We can love those virtues everyday. We can take that sentiment, and embody it in even the smallest way. We can fight the authoritarian trend by recognizing that our democracy gives us the freedom to love one another because of our differences.

Let us remember that we are one, a United country, and will not be so easily divided as our foreign adversaries would desire. Let’s seek inspiration from our communities, where there is no hate for those of differing political opinion, just neighbors with whom we respectfully disagree.

Let us champion those ideals and those principles. Let us be the foundation, and lead with love. Let Farmville be the standard and the light.
