In this day and age, we often see the quote as:
"Those who give up liberties for safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
when the real quote is:
– Benjamin Franklin
My question is: what are these essential liberties as far as you are concerned? If you had to rank all of the rights given to us in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, which would be your top five?

Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
