Protecting and defending the Constitution of the United States is something we all must do.

More sponsorship deals are being lost by kneeling NFL players. From car dealerships to beverage distributors, companies are chosing not to put their money where they feel they are not being best represented.

On the other hand, USAA is continuing sponsorship saying they are doing it as a way to show appreciation for the military. Joining them in continuing sponsorship are Under Armor, Ford, Nike, Hyundai, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and Bose.

Stand or kneel. Sponsor or not.
In each instance, everyone is right.

Ladies and gentlemen, that is why the health of the Constitution of the United States is so vital. It is why the world comes to the U.S. by the millions to have a better life. There's a reason millions in the U.S. aren't going to other countries. I know U.S. citizens who thought it was better somewhere else and came back forthwith with hair-curling tales.

Yet, the Constitution has consistently been under attack since the early 1900s. There are those who want the protections it affords citizens to be destroyed because they want a socialist, communist, or fascist style of government.

They truly don't care which of the three styles because it all comes down to the same thing: Citizens' freedoms are gone.

Yes, there is drama around the NFL kneeling thing. And yes, it is getting column inches and airplay.

But what a great way to get attention on the multiple ways our Constitution is under attack. One of those attacks involves the rights of creatives to own and benefit from their own creations. Read more about that here.

So, good on the NFL management and all players,
sponsors and non-sponsors,
and supportive and non-supportive fans:
You are why the Constitution will remain strong.
