Do you know what I'm here for?

I'm warming up from the NRIA.net studios in New York.

Stand by for the O'Reilly Update Morning Edition.

On this one day, I am just back from a Western vacation, fly fishing, riding horses, scaring

bears.

You know the drill?

I went to Wyoming.

How'd a great time.

As a New York guy getting out into the Rocky Mountains is an excellent change.

I lived in Denver for two years, loved it there, and I really appreciate the Western lifestyle.

It is so much different than the East Coast.

But we are all Americans, and that is a huge plus if we emphasize that.

Therefore, I am more determined than ever to defeat folks who are trying to divide us

especially by race, by skin color.

This is one of the worst things that I've ever seen in my entire journalistic career.

People know that there are problems that need to be solved in a racial area.

All Americans, no matter what skin color you were born with, deserve and should have

protections by the government in order to pursue happiness on an equal basis.

If you disagree with that, you are not a loyal American because that is fundamentally what

our system is all about.

Now, do we live up to that?

No, we don't.
