Step-Up America!

I was surfing last night and came across a blog, which was very interesting. The best comment of the entire writing was as follows: “The real owners of the country will never allow any real change anyway.” When you read this it is particluarly interesting to consider our country and the situation we are in today. Where did the “by the people for the people” group depart to, and when did they go? The general public is so bogged down in the political quagmire we now face that there is no attention being paid to those “behind the scene” individuals and groups, which actually are controlling us by limiting our travel, by controlling our economy, by publishing/broadcasting biased views (not what’s actually happening), and our lives have become someone else’s “game”, not our own. I did express my thanks for the stimulus to the writer, but still, I am keenly aware that our country is at a juncture. We will either make it through as Americans have always done and be stronger for the trial, or we, as Americans, will be forever changed into something much less than the founders of this country envisioned. It is my prayer for all of us that voters in this election will be educated and get involved in the process. We must force issues to be dealt with and not just side-stepped.
