America may not only be losing its identity it may very well be losing its most defining quality, our American liberty, unless pro-American candidates are elected on November 7th. With the mid-term general election season upon us, a crucial question we must ask ourselves as we enter the polling place is whether or not the gubernatorial, congressional, and state senate or representative candidates will be voting for our American liberty or for the liberty of illegal aliens who are carefully disassembling our American culture, our educational and health systems and, quite frankly, our children's future. The mid-term elections could very well determine our nation's future security as well.

Why are the mid-term elections important? Just ask any mom, dad, classroom teacher or sports coach who is desperately short of essential supplies and resources because their much-needed funds have been diverted to pay -- nationally as well as locally -- for educating illegal alien children? According to the national group Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) the illegal immigrant children and those illegal immigrant children born on American soil are costing American taxpayers close to $28 billion annually.

What about our congressional representatives who will be taking office in January? They will be taking up possible illegal alien giveaways determining whether or not a 700-mile border fence will be truly built instead of the 2,000-mile fence that should be built. They may be considering another amnesty bill or whether or not your local hospital will continue to provide services in the billions of dollars and forcing dozens of hospitals to be shut down all across America (in a neighborhood near you!).

We willingly embrace the notion that our national security efforts have been firm against post-9/11 terrorism and how we are keeping would be terrorist activity at bay in the Middle East and not on American soil. We have to address the national security threat which is invisible to most Americans. When a hospital shuts in the community next door, or the local school cannot provide your child with the programs that you remember as a child, that is a national security threat. What about the jobs that are slowly disappearing, the housing benefits that your American-born family is not entitled to (but illegal aliens are), the college scholarships going to illegal aliens but not American-born kids, or those confusing multiple language signs which are appearing regularly in public so that America can be transformed into Mexico north?

What is liberty to Americans if we don't stand up for it on Election Day? Election Day is the one time we have the opportunity to exercise our choice, our selection, our defenders!

The Liberty Bell should be ringing loud and clear in our ears on Election Day. So let's begin to prepare for it now. In between the weekend college football game or the favorite Sunday pro-hockey game or the playoff bound baseball team game, take a few minutes to learn about the candidates who either support your rights as a legal American citizen or support the other unique American pastime: 1 -- 3 million illegal invaders crossing our borders every year. Their supporters downplay their negative impact and casually refer to them as undocumented workers, which is like calling a burglar an uninvited houseguest.
