It is a pledge to fulfill our duties and obligations as citizens of the United States, and to uphold the principles of our constitution. And last but not least, it is a pledge to maintain the four great freedoms treasured by all Americans: freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from want, and freedom from fear.� ~Lee Greenwood __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
