The author describes our national political situation very well.
Might events falsify my hypothesis?
IMO, sadly, a major war or national disaster is the only thing that MIGHT reverse our march to tyranny. Such a circumstance MIGHT actually hasten the end of democracy & what little freedom we have left. God forbid that BHO or HRC ever has the powers FDR had during WWII.
I believe we are beyond the point of returning to honor & freedom by political means. Corruption rules the political process.
The civil war that some are predicting will really be a political insurrection, pitting conservatives against the government & the 50%+ of the people that support it - a replay of the Civil War with likely the same outcome: the government wins & the losers are severely punished. “Reconstruction” will see the end of any semblance of a republic.
What kind of arithmetic supports the above synopsis?
