Its kind of hard to figure out what’s going on.
There’s too much emotion and anger out there to be sure, but its justified by the situation the country is in.
Is one person the answer?
In my lifetime I invested a lot in President Reagan and think he was pretty good, but he was only one man and not perfect.
Then I got sucked into the notion that a Republican controlled Congress would change things with Newt.
When W was president, the GOP controlled both Congress and the White House.
Did things get better? NO.
Government got bigger.
Considering the mistakes of the past like the worship of personalities as a solution including
Ronald Reagan
Newt Gingrich
George W. Bush
Rush Limbaugh
etc. etc. etc.
Maybe its time to stick to principles and take action as individuals outside the political system to change things.
Some folks did in Oregon back in January and all they got was objection to their tactics and or a cold shoulder from politically obsessed personality obsessed people chasing the rainbow that Joe Schmo as President would change everything.
I need to change what I’m doing instead of thinking its someone else who will ‘change things’.
The rabid political debate over the GOP presidential nomination distracts people from taking up their responsibilities as individuals to live the right kind of lives and do the right kind of things.
Great comment, I have said similar things recently. What did Reagan, our conservative icon do to roll back eminent domain? Abortion? The department of education? Or many other liberal things that have always been a problem? Nothing!
BUT, he was a truly great leader and a great man. He made HUGE progress with many other things that were of higher importance at the time! Trump is focused on the immediate threat issues, the other issues are deck chairs on the Titanic.
