On Friday June 26th 2009, I was sworn in as a US Citizen. I was asked by Chief Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange to give a short speech about what it means to me to become a Citizen. I was very nervous because it’s such an honor to not only be able to become a citizen, but also to be asked to speak. In the near future, I will put another video up about the entire ceremony.

Los Angeles — Known as the Balladeer of Gospel, soulful singer, songwriter Desmond Pringle prepares for a new CD release Fidelity, which marks the fourth in his phenomenal career. Prefacing the new release is Pringle’s debut single off the project. “Hope Is Born” is a timely message of victory and personal empowerment. The world is experiencing an unprecedented time of change – financial stability is challenged, natural disasters have displaced families worldwide and our nation has embarked on the most historic presidential election of our time. In the midst of these sometimes challenging moments in our lives, there is a source of continual hope. Pringle penned “Hope Is Born” to be a sustaining and uplifting anthem of abundant possibility and personal responsibility!
“We’ve already won. We the people on an individual basis have been given a personal allotment of precisely what’s necessary to not only survive but thrive,” says Pringle. “One’s reality will be impacted by one’s embrace of personal responsibility or the lack thereof. ‘Hope Is Born’ is a message of relevance regardless of race, creed, color or political affiliation. Whoever you are, wherever you’re from, you are not out of reach of the arms of hope to carry you directly to where you need to be.”
Hope is color blind
And it transcends party lines
The ceiling has been shattered
All of the pieces, yes they have been scattered
According to Pringle his new project, Fidelity, is a reflection of God’s faithfulness in every aspect of our life. “My desire is for people to come away from listening to this project being totally doused in hope and possibility,” Pringle explains. “Faith substantiates our hopes and brings into reality what we do not see. It is when we fully embrace this truth that hope is born.”
Working on this new project, being a minister and an executive would seem to be more than the average could handle without strategic focus. Pringle says that experiencing these layers in his career has helped him become fully engaged in this process with confidence and a sense of personal responsibility. “It has caused me to perceive and understand the Kingdom principle of “Dominion” from a practical application perspective,” Pringle states. “With the accelerated evolution of the music industry growing exponentially on a daily basis, it’s imperative that those who minister in the genre broker the power and keep the gates themselves. That’s the order of God!”
Pringle has been blessed to be a part of Gospel music for over 10 years. His journey into professional music began in the lead role of the hit gospel musical “A Good Man Is Hard To Find”. His portrayal received an NAACP Image Award nomination. The native South Carolinian then relocated to Chicago to further develop his musical prowess. His work as a singer/songwriter gained him contributions to award-winning artists including Yolanda Adams, Bishop T. D. Jakes, Shirley Caesar, CeCe Winans and Bishop Paul S. Morton. Add to that, stellar performances at the Stockholm Gospel Festival and the award as the Best Male Vocalist by the African American Religious Connection. In 1998 his independent release “Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs” grabbed the attention of Chicago radio stations and led to a record deal with Tommy Boy Gospel and his highly acclaimed release Loyalty. Pringle also served as VP of Urban / Gospel for Warner Bros. Records. Now, Pringle, Dove Award nominated songwriter, ordained minister and psalmist faithfully travels throughout the country administering workshops, ministering the Word and sharing his heart. After months of preparing and recording, Pringle is energized and ready for this long awaited CD – Fidelity, available spring 2009.
With such a demand for this compelling message, Pringle has made the single available on his website.

I have to be a "reporter" for history, and have to write an article report about George Washington’s first inaugural address. I read it, but didn’t understand it AT ALL. So can you please explain it to me in an easy way? Lol
Yikes, I’m really nervous to be President, but I think it’s my duty and honor.
I’m going to do my best to be non-partisan.
You can tell me how I’m doing.
I don’t want to take money, and don’t think the President should have a large salary.
god bless
It’s from January 20, 1941; the first and last time any president was elected into a third term. It’s in excellent condition.

If you want to keep it, value is of little importance. If you want to sell it you need to hunt down a collector.
