I like that line too. And I wonder if he isn’t already showing stress fractures. The chickens are coming home to roost...what shaped that jerk in our White House shows on his face and that of his wife’s and it is ugly. Very ugly. Arrogance always destroys it’s host.

Optimistic words, but we also have the Great Depression as precedent.

Right now we are seeing a replay of the Great Depression, and it shows exactly why the thing dragged on as long as it did. Government interference (aka regulation) gummed up the works and prevented job creation. This eased off because of the war effort, and the postwar boom took advantage of that.

Now, it's back in full cry, and anybody with a business has hunkered down into survival mode. At least until they decide it's not worth bothering any more.

1930's redux. But you won't be told this in publik screwel.

America, first led by Washington, followed by such intellectual giants as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison now needs another modern-day leader like Reagan, who understood that millions of lives of brave Americans have been sacrificed for a noble cause, not for the sake of imposing state control over individual citizens.

America needs an authentic leader: - one who has studied the history of civilization's struggle for liberty;

- one who understands the principles essential to preserving liberty;

- one who understands the human tendency to abuse delegated power;

- one who recognizes approaching tyranny;

- one whose singular passion is to preserve and protect the principles underlying the Constitution of the United States in order that future generations may live in freedom;

- one who surrounds himself with other lovers of liberty and decries all who threaten its survival;

- one who recognizes what America's Founders acknowledged in their declaration of principles--that life, liberty, rights and laws to protect them come from the hand of God: they are not the prerogative of government.

The world cries out for such an American leader. The world, for over 200 years, has looked to America as a place of refuge, of opportunity, of generosity and sharing--a literal breadbasket.

"Ideas have consequences! (Weaver)

Tyrants organize and dictate outcomes. Leaders inspire and free people to aspire, achieve, and pursue happiness.

Perhaps, once again, Divine Providence will provide a leader who understands his/her role in keeping the light of liberty beaming its message to other shores.
