The Impact of Digital Marketing on US Consumer Behavior

Men, living and dead, who battled here have hallowed it, far above our capacity for addition or subtraction. The world will hardly remember what we say here; yet it cannot forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be committed here to the incomplete work they have thus kindly carried on. From these honored dead we take increased dedication to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.Senator Thurston presented this deliberative oration in the United States Senate on March 24That date's Congressional Record has complete recording of it. Mrs. Thurston passed out in Cuba. She asked her husband, who was looking at matters on the island, to do his best to get the United States to interfere—hence this oration.] as a dying request. city dwellers; their inescapable fate was gradual hunger.

To President I am here under instruction of silent

Lips to speak once and for ever on the Cuban scenario. I will try to be fair, modest, and honest. I have no intention of fanning popular passion toward any action not absolutely required to fulfill the obligations of American accountability, Christian humanity, and national honor. If I could, I would avoid this work; yet, I dare not. I can only satisfy my conscience by speaking, and right now. I went to Cuba certain that the press had severely distorted the situation there, and first my own efforts were focused on the attempted expose of these claimed exaggerations. Although there has surely been much sensationalism in the journalism of the moment, regarding the state of circumstances in Cuba, there has been no exaggeration since it has proved impossible. Under the inhuman policy of Weyler not less than four hundred thousand self-supporting, simple, peaceful, defenseless country people were driven from their homes in the agricultural portions of the Spanish provinces to the cities, and imprisoned upon the barren waste outside the residence portions of these cities and within the lines of intrenchment established a little way beyond. Their modest houses torched, their fields lay trash, their tools of agriculture ruined, their live stock and food supplies mostly seized. The most of them were children, women, and elderly folks. They were thus thrown into hopeless detention without of food or cover. The cities to which they were transported lacked employment for them. Their only source of dependability was the meager generosity of the.

True are the images in the American press 

Of the famished reconcentrados. The thousands allow one to replicate all of them. Please God; I never previously saw, and I may never again see as terrible a sight as the reconcentrados in the Matanzas suburbs. I never forgets the terrible suffering in their desperate eyes on my last day. Huddled around their small bark houses, they did not call to us for charity as we passed among them Men, women, and children all stand mute, ravenous. Their mournful eyes, through which one sees as though via an open window into their tortured hearts, appeal solely. The Spanish government has not seized one dollar to assist in saving these individuals. Thanks to American charity, they are now being attended to, nursed, and given. Considering the show! We are seeing to their sick; we are saving such as can besaved; still, some of these Spanish people still believe it is appropriate for us to give food, but we must keep our hands off. I feel the time has arrived when muskets should complement the cuisine. We asked the governor whether he knew of any relief for these people but through throws in more areas, beneath more sky, and under them has killed more people than all the other countries of the planet combined. Europe ma delay simply adds still more chapter to the terrible tale of suffering and death. One power can act—that of the United States of America. Our country is the one outstanding one in the world, the mother of American republics. The one enormous power the Shf the cosmos has bestowed upon us in the New World We have to take action! What do we have to do

One voice of opposition exists against American

Engagement in this sacred cause; that voice is the voice of the money-changes. War scares them! Not because of any Christian or ennobling emotion against war and in favor of peace, but because they worry that a declaration of war, or the involvement which might lead to war, would have a lowering effect upon the stock market. Release them. They do not reflect American attitude; they do not reflect American patriotism. Let them run their chances as they can. The liberty-loving citizens of the United States hardly give their weal or misery much thought. They will keep on dealing in options on human life; they will not fight; their blood will not pour. Let the men whose allegiance is to the dollar set aside while the men whose allegiance is to the flag approach the front. Mr. President, if anything is done, only one step is feasible—that of involvement for the island's freedom. But we cannot intervene and defend Cuba without the use of force; force means war, hence blood is involved. Preaching the holy concept of love, "Peace on earth, good will toward men," the poor Nazarene on the shores of Galilee Not peace on earth at the price of freedom and humanity. Not good will travel toward men who despoil, enslave, degrade, and starve to death their fellow-men. I accept Christ's doctrine to be true. I follow the theory of peace; however, Mr. President, men must have liberty before there can be abiding peace. Intervention implies force. Force defines war. War translates into blood. Still, it will be God's might. Other than by force, when has a fight for liberty and mankind ever been won Except by force, what bulwark of injustice, evil, and oppression has ever been carried.
