We also are up against voters who pull the party ticket regardless of the facts because that’s the way they are told to vote, that’s the way their folks voted, they believe the 30 second sound bites, some just want their entitlements to keep increasing or their tax breaks to be an ongoing way of life. Our grand parents and great grand parents and on back would be mortified at what we have allowed our country to become….history repeats itself over and over because we (as humans) are short on memory and long on arrogance.
I do have faith that we have enough people who are paying attention and that we will not be the ones who are blamed in the history books for not doing enough to make sure that freedom and liberty are lost for generations.

I totally agree, but I would add the importance of exercising one’s right to cast an educated vote cannot be overstated. Simply voting is not the answer, voting for the right candidate is.

Stay focused on this upcoming mid term and learn about the candidates.

Our Congress should not be bowing down to the interest of any international organization. Members of Congress were elected to represent their constituents, not NATO. There is an established process in place for overturning or adding an Amendment to the United States Constitution. The importance of exercising one’s right to vote cannot be overstated.

We are but one vote away from some serious “transformation of America” in the Supreme Court.
