Once upon a time...

A document was written to declare the peoples' rights in a new nation.

These unalienable rights promised to each and every person

That they should be secure in Life, Liberty, and the persuit of Happiness.

The document so did declare that this new nation is to be instituted

And to derive it's power from the consent of the governed.

This nation was established with a consideration for change embeded within

That when a government becomes hostile to these rights,

It is the duty of the people to alter, or abolish it.

It is the purpose of this nation and the duty of it's people to throw off such a government.

But then... There came a time of great uncertainty.
