The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of these United States are covenants we have made not only with ourselves, but with all mankind.

This is not the time for political fun and games. This is the time for a new beginning. I ask you now to put aside any feelings of frustration or helplessness about our political institutions and join me in this dramatic but responsible plan to reduce the enormous burden of Federal taxation on you and your family.
