“You are the future of agriculture, with a faith born not of words but of deeds.”
“We are a country of opportunity, not a country of divisive action and categorization based on what name you have or where you are from.”
“The key to success is working with the pre-existing order that God has sown into creation, not fighting against it.”
“And if we want this nation to last another 250 years by God’s good grace, we must make sure that American agriculture — our small towns, our small communities, and our rural way of life — survives and thrives.”
“It’s time for FFA to once again stand up for the values of rural America, for commonsense, merit, freedom, and truth.”
“To all the FFA members out there, I encourage you to live up to the FFA creed we all know so well — its call to cherish the joys and even the discomforts of this way of life… to serve your own — and more importantly — the public interest.”
“A new day is dawning on our farms and in our classrooms, and as we all know, the rising sun is the token of a new era in agriculture. Mark my words, the best is yet to come.”
