The Homestead Policy Was Established Only After

There Are Some Who Lack Confidence In The Integrity And Capacity Of The People To Govern Themselves. To All Who Entertain Such Fears I Will Most Respectfully Say That I Entertain None. If Man Is Not Capable, And Is Not To Be Trusted With The Government Of Himself, Is He To Be Trusted With The Government Of Others? Who, Then, Will Govern? The Answer Must Be, Man - For We Have No Angels In The Shape Of Men, As Yet, Who Are Willing To Take Charge Of Our Political Affairs.

The Homestead Policy Was Established Only After Long And Earnest Resistance; Experience Proves Its Wisdom. The Lands In The Hands Of Industrious Settlers, Whose Labor Creates Wealth And Contributes To The Public Resources, Are Worth More To The United States Than If They Had Been Reserved As A Solitude For Future Purchasers.

I Realized, There Are People Out There Who Can Beat Me, Want To Beat Me. And Unless I Continue To Innovate And Evolve, I Am Going To Learn A Painful Lesson From Someone Who Has.

I Never Thought I Would Be Impeached.

It Is Our Sacred Duty To Transmit Unimpaired To Our Posterity The Blessings Of Liberty Which Were Bequeathed To Us By The Founders Of The Republic.
