My mother is in her late seventies, and she emailed me a link to a video at YouTube entitled "If I wanted America to fail", and this is one of the things touched on briefly. I was not even 10 years-old doing chores on the farm. I was not even 10 years-old when I first operated the Farmall M on the farm.
From my perspective, this topic is not about politics, its about the survival of not only the farm family, but our nation, these United States Of America. Our founding fathers died to provide the framework that created this thriving, prosperous nation. Some of our fathers and grandfathers and mothers and grandmothers and brothers and sisters died to provide and protect the freedoms that we have. And what are WE going to leave OUR children and grandchildren? Is it going to be OUR generation that failed our nation? Failed OUR children and grandchildren? Are WE going to be the generation that let our nation and forefathers down? Dropped the ball?
That video that my mother, in her twilight years, late seventies, almost eighty sent to me. When my father died at a young age for him, me not even 11 years-old, my mother became the best father that I had from then on. She worked to provide for her children. I think that she sent me that video from YouTube "If I wanted America to fail" to wake me up. Wake up my generation, the one that is and has been dropping the ball on our nation, children, grandchildren, and forefathers for allowing this not only to happen, but continue to happen. If you get a chance, go over to YouTube and watch that video and ask yourself, what part of that is not happening now.

The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
