Manifesto
THE YOUTH MANIFESTO
"Every generation needs a new revolution."--Thomas Jefferson
In this time of crisis and national decline, the youth of America bear a responsibility to step up and speak out against the destructive policies of our so-called leaders.
Both major parties bow and scrape before the altar of the status quo, each using their time in power to expand Leviathan government and shred the liberties of the American people.
“Change” has become an empty slogan abused for political gain then discarded. “Reform” as a countering meme is equally a farce. Nothing truly changes.
America is stumbling into the twenty-first century weak and rudderless, hobbled by exploding debt, a broken financial system, and disastrous foreign entanglements.
And what is the collective wisdom of the establishment and our so-called leaders? “Stay the course, stay the course, stay the course.”
No. We must change course.
Our generation cannot stand by as spectators while our future darkens by the day.
We must step up and show to the world the power of a generation awakened.
We call on youth everywhere to organize and prepare for our day of maximum effort: November 5th, 2012 – on the eve of Election Day in the Year of Youth.
Remember, remember the Fifth of November.
Join us.
