WOW. We seem to being a lot of name wiping in our country these days because it doesn't fit our needs or live up to our expectations or read the way we think it should. We want to remove great monuments to great men. we want to change text books because our past was wrong in some way shape or form we want to replace HISTORY with lies to make our outward appearance look better. The fact is... It does not make us look better ! The only thing that makes AMERICA look better is TO DO BETTER ! Why are we fighting civil rights again and again? Why do we have more homeless now than any point in our history ? why are children under educated ? why are children starving and dying of disease that was supposed to have been eradicated ? Because we the people have forgotten what made this country strong .... telling the truth ! Standing up for what is right ! Helping others ! Making AMERICA a better place to live , to have a dream , making that dream reality ...... That's the Promise that was given to ELVIS and that's the promise ELVIS gave back to America ! He started with nothing and had a dream to get out of poverty and to help his family and when he became famous he helped many thousands of people because he fulfilled the dream that he had and was afforded him by AMERICA . He said without his fans he would be nothing ! and because of his fans he was able to share his wealth and one of the things he shared his wealth with was the USS ARIZONA MEMORIAL and his name should stand there forever ! It doesn't matter your opinion of him. If you liked him or not , if you believe or don't believe he was a good role model it matters that HE RAISED THE MONEY AND GAVE IT FREELY SO THAT THE MEMORIAL COULD BE FINISHED ! SO IT IS NOT UP TO ANYONE BUT ELVIS TO SAY REMOVE MY NAME AND HE IS NOT HERE TO DO THAT ! SO KEEP YOUR GOD DAMN HANDS OFF ! REINSTATE HIS NAME !
