My great grandkids will probably live somewhere else, just like my great grandparents did. That doesn't matter -- geography doesn't matter. Ideas matter, and the US marked an important step in the liberation of humanity from millenia of superstition and tyranny. Now we're played out and have become an instrument of superstition and tyranny. Time for the big Vaudeville hook to come for us.
Well, I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter with me now, because I've been to the mountaintop.
And I don't mind.
Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land!
