Friend --

When I got news that my friend Leo was shot in the arm while doing his job at the Family Research Council, my heart sank.

He is the security guard who did his job to protect lives from a left-wing lunatic. Thankfully, Leo is recovering from his wound.

There's no doubt the left-winger -- who was carrying 15 Chick-fil-A sandwiches in his backpack while carrying a loaded gun into the lobby of a conservative organization -- had intentions to kill.

Leo knew it. Leo put himself in danger, tackled the man and took the gun away from him. He stopped a potential bloodbath. The D.C. Chief of Police called him a hero.

Leo Johnson

Friend, Leo is a conservative. When interviewed by the media, he asked for his privacy and said he's no hero, that he was just doing his job.

That's the Leo I know and I'm so proud of him.

With Americans like Leo, America works.

But America is reaching a point where we no longer work -- where we teach children that work is something the rich force the poor to do to make them rich.

We've destroyed the importance of work -- the very thing that can make our nation prosper again -- and replaced it with envy.

I know about this liberal lie when I lived on and off of welfare for seven years of my life.

Too many Americans believe they're receiving their "fair share" in the form of a welfare check.

With sadness, more Americans are buying into this lie every day.

Right now 165 million people are in some way dependent on the government -- that's half of our entire country!

We can't go on like this.

A majority of Americans are marching to follow Obama's new vision of America where "prosperity is shared" by stealing it from someone and handing it to someone else who didn't earn it.

Friend, the number of Americans becoming dependent on the government is growing with no end in sight. And what do we have to show for it? Broken families and our children in prison. That's not prosperity -- it's a lie.

Real prosperity is naturally shared without the commands of a bureaucrat.

When real prosperity is shared, Americans build things to make our lives better: things like the airplane, the iPhone and an artificial heart.

When real prosperity is shared, we have Americans like Leo who give in service so that others may live. That's his job.

Since the so-called war on poverty began, generations have grown up on a steady diet of collectivist ideology. It's no wonder where we find ourselves today!

But we can reverse the danger to our freedom by educating Americans one person at a time. After all, that's how the Left consumes our country while we watch.

The liberals have a very long view. They've attacked capitalism, the family, and work for half a century. For their reward, half of our country is now under their spell!

Friend, the liberals will never be happy with only half the country under their thumb. So before our entire country is consumed by leftist ideology and fear, we must fight back right now, before it's too late.

It's time to stand up and let Americans know there is another path to freedom and prosperity. Will you help me?

Americans will listen. After all, I was once a single mother on welfare who never could have imagined my life today. My life changed when someone told me the truth about welfare. Now help me tell this truth to every American.

Will you follow this link and fund my urgent work with an immediate contribution of $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,500 or even $2,500?

We can make America work again.


Your foot-soldier for freedom,

Star Parker
