It is great that we have a place to discuss the issues that concern and effect us all,wether you be Dem. Repub, Ind, or other, it shows concern for our nation and that we are discussing them makes it even better, if only the politicans would read some of our posts, they might get the real picture of what the people really want and not just a select few that control this country. I will argue all day to make my point, and state my belives, but still at the end of the day I would gladly get into a boat with anyone of you and have no hard feelings or anything, as we all have a RIGHT our OPINIONS and that is what makes this counrty great and sacared. We are a very young country compared to other nations, we are still in the learning stages about how to make it work for all, we are 232 years old, a very young country that has been an insperation to other countrys. We have grown quickly for such a young nation, probally too quick, as things are starting to wear and need some "maintinance" some parts changed, not a complete overhaul but a good fixing. If you look back ay history, all great nations have falling or tumbled at some time, and why should we be an exception, it is history and human nature,if we fall we will rebound and stronger than ever and hopefully learn from past mistakes, it has happened before it will again.We are young and still have a lot to learn, 232 years is not that long if you look at how long people have been on earth. Just something to think about.
