"Rather than talking about fixing things, we ought to be focussed on how to get through the changes being imposed upon us."

Thank God The Founding Fathers of this country didn't share your opinion. If they had, we would still be singing "Rue Brittania".

The founding fathers weren't prophetic. The constitution wasn't carved in stone.

I believe in following the spirit of the constitution; too many changes have occurred in our country which makes it impossible to know what the founding fathers would think about any given issue if they were here.

It is too late to turn back the clock. To attempt to do so invites revolution which would be the total destruction of not only our country but many others as well.

The best we can do is work to prevent further erosion of our rights and lobby for less control at the federal government level.

We are not in this alone. Other countries are faced with many of the same problems we are; i.e., elements within thier societies which will more than likely erupt into violence. Why no one had the foresight to see this coming is beyond me.

We made our fatal mistake when we didn't help the blacks and poor whites, instead let floods of immigrants in because of our quest to what? What do we really want in this country? I fear we are on a course to rule the planet and I never wanted anything like that at all. Better we had been a little xenophobic like Russia. At least they preserved most of their unique culture.
