:55:04
I promise to respect and support
our American traditions-
:55:09
I'm waiting.
:55:11
our right to bear arms...
:55:13
I'm still waiting.
:55:14
our right to the freedoms
ofreligious worship and expression...
:55:19
so fundamental to our liberty.
:55:23
I promise to support a smaller,
more efficient government.
:55:29
No longermust the Big Brother
ofthe social welfare system...
:55:33
dictate our daily lives...
:55:35
intruding, impeding, regulating...
:55:39
the very air that we breathe.
:55:43
What I'm talking about,
my fellow citizens...
:55:46
comes down to
that precious word "freedom. "
:55:51
A freedom enjoyed
by those bold individuals...
:55:54
who came to a wild frontier and built
the West that we love so dearly...
:56:00
those steadfast
men and women...
:56:03
whose spirit
ofdaring and conquest...
:56:07
inspires us to this day.
:56:11
The freedom from fear
ofthose who envy our good fortune...
:56:15
who scorn
our democratic institutions.
:56:20
Freedom from
the cultural tyranny...
:56:23
ofthe special interest groups
and the new-age demagogues...
:56:27
who would seek to deny us...
:56:29
the harvest
ofour God-given bounty...
:56:33
under the false banner
ofenvironmental correctness.
:56:39
The freedom to seek health,
happiness...
:56:44
and, yes, fortune...
:56:47
in this glorious
mountain state ofours.
:56:52
This is the freedom I prom ise you,
my fel low citizens.
:56:57
But let not a man be judged
by the promises he makes...
