John Kennedy "Ask Not"

My Story for this week is one that I remember quite well - The year was 1962 and I was 14 years old.
 
I still remember sitting in front of my TV set that night with my family, listening to our President, John Kennedy, as he told us that a showdown was coming with the Russians - and it was quite serious.
 
I have titled  the story "Ask Not".
 
Let us all Pray!.

"Jackie Robinson"

It is hard to believe that this story for this week is in our true American history books - but it is!

"Principles of Our Founding Fathers"

With all of the trouble and doubletalk going on in our American Political Machine today, do you ever wonder how our Founding Fathers were ever able to direct the Character of our Nation for these over 250 years, and keep us on track?.
 
Listen to the words of our Founders and tell me if we are still on track based on what you hear today.

"Remembering 9-11"

Let us all remember this tragic day and pray for those who bravely went in to help and those who had lost ones on 9/11/2001.
 

"Charles Lindberg"

In my stories, I tell a lot about people who are determined not to just try, but to never give up in their "Doing".
 
Being an AmeriCAN, 'not an Americant' is quite impressive and we must all be AmeriCANs if our nation is to survive.
 
But this particular story tells us about a man, Charles Lindberg, who was not just striving to just do something that no other had ever done, but those before who had failed and died trying. 
 
So, let us see what AmeriCAN Charles Lindberg did.

"All Of Us Must Stand Up"

Along with today's Feature I ask this question:
 
"Are we all responsible to help each other here in America, or do we just stand by with our cameras waiting for the Police to arrive?
 
What do you think?
 
Let's Keep Praying!
 

"The Most Famous Tea Party in History"

 
It's another warm one in Texas - hope your own local weather is doing well for you.
 
Our Story this week is not necessarily one that you haven't heard before, but the details of just what happened there are not always so clear.
 
It's the story of what I call "The Most Famous Tea Party in Our History". We have all come to know it as "The Boston Tea Party".
 
As you listen to this "Party Story" you will see just how close this event was to the passing date of our Declaration of Independence, and that one of our "Sayings" today, "No taxation without Representation", began in this event.
 
Please make sure that your listeners don't miss this story which was a great part in getting us on our way to our "Freedom Declaration"

"The Andrew Jackson Shooting"

What many people don't know is that Abraham Lincoln was not the first attempted Presidential assassination.  Of course, we all know that he did not survive the shooting, but there was another attempt on a president's life and his name was Andrew Jackson.  This story has two very odd parts - 1) The assination was attempted, but he was not shot and 2) The court's decision from this clear murderest attempt was not what anyone thought the decision would be. 
 
Listen to this story and learn what is still being used today.  

"Memorial Day - To Remember"

This "You Are There" is about remembering and honoring our veterans who fought to keep us free and safe.
 
We need to remember why we have a Memorial Day and not treat it as a day to shop for great deals, but to talk to families that lost that loved one fighting for our country.
 
 

"Honoring Our Military"

To be a hero you don't necessarily have to save someone from a burning building, or jump into freezing water to save someone from drowning - we are told in Webster's Dictionary what the true hero can be.
 
Listen and remember and honor those who have given their last full measure of devotion in war for our America.
