CELEBRATING OUR 35
TH
YEAR
AS THE RETAIL OBSERVER
Elle's View As I See It
W
ith November just around the corner, we are approaching what may be the single most
important election of our lifetime. 2024 has indeed brought with it many tests and
challenges. We have endured a year of challenges and fear and are currently witnessing
the dismantling of our nation from within. A rigorous dismantling of morals, values, and principles
is at play, as well as a great division amongst friends and loved ones over political points of view.
Let us be reminded that The Constitution of the United States of America is the supreme law
of the United States. Empowered with the sovereign authority of the people by the framers and
the consent of the legislatures of the states, it is the source of all government powers, and also
provides important limitations on the government that protect the fundamental rights of United
States citizens.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,
ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and
secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this
Constitution for the United States of America."
May we never forget the men and women who gave their lives so that we might be free. Let us
follow the path of righteousness and let us always be a generous and morally and ethically
upright nation. May we as a people, remove corruptness, ignorance, and hatred from our hearts,
healing our thoughts and actions, to embrace all who cross our path.
May those in governing positions be guided by truth, using sound judgment to make good
decisions. May we as a nation uphold our constitutional law, protecting us from our enemies and
lift us to a state of power to do good in the world, as the leaders of a nation of peace that we are
meant to be.
It is my wish for us to be the light of the world, bestowing the great spirit of courage and
strength upon humankind to all the corners of the earth. Let us join in celebration, people from
every tribe, tongue, and nation — to live our lives sovereign and free. These things I pray as
we stand victorious, declaring truth and understanding for all of humanity upon this earth we
call home.
God bless our country and her people. Watch over us and guide us to pursue liberty, justice,
and equality for all.
