  Lee Greenwood: The Untold Story Behind "God Bless the USA" | Live Free TV

  Sep 18, 202627 min

  Everyone knows the song. Almost nobody knows why he wrote it. In this special episode of Live Free TV, Lt. Col. Allen West sits down with country music legend Lee Greenwood for a conversation that goes far beyond the stage. Greenwood shares the real story behind "God Bless the USA": the shot-down airliner that lit the fire in 1983, why he insisted on putting God first in the title, and the one lyric he wrote to make sure America never forgets the men who died. But the song is only part of it. Greenwood opens up about a childhood shaped by his father's World War II Navy service, selling fruit to buy his first bicycle, working bars at 14 to pay for his own socks, and the night in Los Angeles when he had $2 to his name. He explains why that experience shapes how he sees the socialism debate today, what "Live Free" means to him, and why fewer than 1% of Americans now serve in uniform, and where that willingness to serve actually comes from. Also in this episode: • Greenwood's wife, former Miss Tennessee USA Kim Payne Greenwood, has been nominated by the President as U.S. Ambassador to Barbados • Reflections on the 25th anniversary of 9/11 and whether America still remembers • His take on wealth, envy, and the "gospel of envy" • Why "God Bless the USA" now plays at U.S. naturalization ceremonies • A look ahead to Veterans and Valor, November 11 in Bonita Springs, Florida, where Greenwood will perform alongside ACRU and the Committee to Support and Defend Recorded the day before the 239th anniversary of the U.S. Constitution, during America's 250th year of independence. ️ Join us for Veterans and Valor on Veterans Day, November 11, at the Marriott in Bonita Springs, Florida.

  Religious Liberty, Sharia Law, and the Constitution

  Aug 29, 202628 min

  What happens when religious liberty is used to shield a political ideology from constitutional scrutiny? Lt. Col. Allen West argues that Americans must distinguish between protecting an individual’s freedom of worship and ignoring organized movements that seek to undermine constitutional principles. In this episode of Live Free TV, we examine political Islam through the lens of individual rights, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, equal protection, and the constitutional oath to support and defend the United States. Also discussed: - Why criticism of an ideology is not the same as hostility toward individuals - The constitutional conflict between individual liberty and systems demanding submission - The Muslim Brotherhood memorandum and the Holy Land Foundation trial - The Islamic Society of North America and its upcoming convention - Religious persecution, blasphemy laws, and freedom of expression - The political alliance between Marxist and Islamist movements - Why elected officials must be questioned about their commitment to the Constitution - The inaugural issue of The Constitutional Defender - Veterans and Valor on November 11, 2026, in Bonita Springs, Florida

  At 250, Will America Still Choose Liberty?

  Aug 17, 202624 min

  America’s 250th anniversary gives us plenty to celebrate, but it also demands an honest look at what we are preserving. Are the rights to life, liberty, and property still treated as God-given rights, or as privileges government may redefine and ration? In this episode of Live Free TV, Lt. Col. Allen West examines the principles behind the Declaration of Independence, John Locke’s natural-rights theory, and the constitutional oath to support and defend the nation’s founding law. He argues that America’s next chapter depends on citizens who understand those principles and are willing to defend them. LTC West addresses: - Why “Independence Day” means more than a date on the calendar - The difference between liberty and government control - Property rights, taxation, and wealth redistribution - Whether candidates who reject constitutional structures can honestly swear to defend them - The continuing duty of America’s veterans - Thomas Paine, Frédéric Bastiat, and the ideas worth reading in America’s 250th year - Veterans and Valor in Bonita Springs on Veterans Day 2026 Supporting the Constitution is passive. Defending it requires action. The choice before Americans is whether we will remain steadfast and loyal to the republic or leave less freedom to the generations that follow us.
