The One America plan and song are designed to improve race relations which will promote unity in our communities and to illustrate the Republican Party is a party for all people regardless of a person's socio-economic or ethnic background."One America" Racial Unity/The First Hand Knowledge Rule There should be no boundaries between races! One's ethnicity is truly irrelevant. Although there has been focus and improvement in this issue, we have a long way to go to completely erase the blight of racial prejudice. Let's use the significance of the new century to start anew in correcting the problem. Why is it not possible to judge a person based solely on that person's capabilities? Why do we classify racial groups? One America will make America Number One. As the California Party Chairman stated recently regarding the rebuilding of the Republican Party, "In order to achieve these goals, we must work diligently together." Thus, even though we are all different, it is essential we build and improve our district, state and country by working together rather than permitting racial or ethnic prejudice to interfere with healthy progress. It is crucial that all American citizens work together to achieve the common goal of a great America solving its problems, regardless of ethic or racial differences. One's character and personality characteristics make that person, not his skin color. Abraham Lincoln said it best, "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal." We must work hard to achieve this goal. It can be done although some have given up, failing to heed the words of Winston Churchill during World War II when Great Britain looked defeat square in the face. Churchill said, "Never quit. Never give in to anything great or small. Never quit. Never quit. Never quit." Here, the "education" element of the four cornerstones is applicable. Education can and eventually will eradicate prejudice against a fellow American. "One America" is the official campaign theme song for D. C. Taylor, Republican for California State Assembly, District 42. "One America" written, produced and performed by Mike Renneker (C)2000 Michael Dennis Renneker "ONE AMERICA" This country is more than just a place more than a vast, wide open space it's more of an idea, who's time is here and now it's people are bound by what they share by what is right and what is fair and now it's time to pull together chorus let there be one America, one America where we can celebrate our colors as we stand as sisters and brothers let's make one America, one America, let us be a lightning rod one nation under God one America, one America This country stands for one ideal built by blood and sweat and steel and let us not forget the ones who gave up their lives so ever higher we can climb one strong family at a time now is our chance to work together chorus let's move forth blameless from the past united one and all at last in freedom let us come together for a better future chorus In conclusion, Abraham Lincoln said it best, "A house divided among itself cannot stand." We must now pull together for a better tomorrow. Thank you very much. If you would like a copy of the "One America" Song, just pull up my web page for the address to our campaign headquarters. Quote from a recent purchaser of the One America song, "It makes me proud to be an American." D.C.
