We Can Get Better Sergeant Benobo's Twelve Steps for the Recovering American

Twelve Steps for the Recovering American

1. Understand that you have often been misled.

2. Embrace the world and restore the notion of the United States.

3. Turn your will — and life — over to the betterment of this world.

4. Make a reasonable assessment of this country’s wrongdoings.

5. Admit to yourself your part in this travesty.

6. Honestly try to remove all of these defects from our character.

7. Realize that the world might not want to forgive our shortcomings.

8. Still, be willing to personally make amends.

9. Don’t hurt anybody.

10. Be vigilant. When you think we are wrong, do something about it.

11. Always remember that you are not special, but you can be.

12. Make friends.
