It has come to my attention that quite a few Americans support our troops but as usual we are the silent majority. We are not organized to really reflect who we are. I would like to start a grass roots movement to recognize Americans who support our troops.
My idea is not to stand on street corners once or twice, not to carry stupid signs in a rally, not to carry our flag in parades.
Its much simpler than that. We need to inform the local VFW's and American Legion, our local press, local TV, and even up to the national levels as we start to get this going. My idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is that starting Friday and continuing on each and every Friday, that we and every red blooded American who supports our young men and women,
WEAR SOMETHING RED ( or Red, White and Blue ).
Word of mouth, press, TV, lets see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game for the Chiefs. If everyone of us shared this with our buddies, fellow workers and all those we meet each day.
I guarantee you that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in Red much to the disdain of the un-American ralliers.
Lets get the word out and lead by example, wear RED ( or Red, White, And Blue ) on Fridays.
Thanks for your time and consideration of my proposal.
I intend to send this out to everyone on my e-mail list, hopefully, you will too.
