It 's interesting to whom ever you listen to today about last
nights debate between Biden and Ryan that each side
projects from their own preexisting perspective.
Speaking from one's perspective is fine but making this exercise
between us and them instead of we is a big reason we're in the
mess we're in as a nation. It's been a dilemma Yeshua faced
2000 years ago and it continues to rear its ugly head.
What does it take for men and women to realize we are all
connected and one and should treat each other with love,
kindness, and respect working together to build this great
nation instead of tearing it down for the benefit of the few.
I believe two of my heroes Jefferson and Lincoln who were
trying to build a more perfect union for everyone would be
dismayed at the current situation. Lincoln, a republican,
said," of the people, for the people, by the people shall
not perish from the earth." And he was not referring to
corporations!
What has made our country great is that we have focused on
building a nation that benefits everyone not just the elite.
That is why our forefathers came here in the first place!
It eminates from the writings of Jefferson and
Payne two of our greatest American philosophers.
I don't know how we can steer the course away from
national decline if we can't follow the message from
a simple carpenter some 2000 years ago." Love others
as I have loved you."
It's time for us as a nation, a peoples, to truly listen to
the humble carpenter and start working towards a
national goal, an American goal and rebuild this
magnificant nation to the ideal of great men like
Jefferson, Lincoln, and Payne.
