On the eve of the primary election, What really drives Granite State voters? First in the Nation, will they be First In Freedom? by creator

When I was a boy, I lived in Centerport, Long Island. My parents bought a piece of property on a lake near New London, and established an annual tradition of camping in New Hampshire for Labor Day weekend.
New Hampshire is a beautiful state! I have many fond memories of those visits, driving through Dixon Notch, marveling at The Basin, gazing up at the Old Man of the Mountain.
New Hampshire "lost face" recently when a substantial portion of the Old Man fell, leaving a nondescript blank spot in it's place. Only a ghostly memory remains. I think that many of the patriots who live in and those of us who have reason to love New Hampshire would like to see a new face established to carry on the fine tradition of the Old Man that we miss so much.
New Hampshire's state motto is "Live Free Or Die." Has that motto become a mere ghost of it's former self? Is it like the Old Man, the reality of living free now just a memory, while in truth Freedom has become a pile of rubble at the foot of a warring global empire, increasingly despised around the globe? I pray not!
There is a man whose face is fast becoming synonymous with Freedom in America. His name is Ron Paul, and he is a Herald of Liberty and the Champion of the Constitution. New Hampshire, get to know this man! Google him! Hear his message of Freedom, and let the the heritage you received from your forefathers be stirred again to new life!
The people of New Hampshire have a choice on the morrow - they can anoint one of the many war mongering big-government candidates to power, or they can make a courageous statement for Liberty by choosing Ron Paul. New Hampshire, make us proud! Propel Dr. Ron Paul and his message of Freedom to the place of prominence they deserve! It's time to not only be "First In The Nation" but to truly become "First In Freedom!"

Nice use of imagery in your column. The great profile shot of RP could be the old man of the mountain. I hope the spirit of General John Stark haunts the polling places in New Hampshire tomorrow.
Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils.
