The Need to Come Together And Stand Tall!

We’ve spent a lot of time talking about who are candidates are.

In my opinion, whomever is nominated has to be better than the best that the opposition can offer….

And while we have remarked at length about our subjective views of the Primaries, the fact remains that we cannot forget that whomever takes over, we have to support them in order to see a liberal and progressive agenda.

It has been a long time since I felt the optimism of a democratic administration.

I would like to do so again in my lifetime.

But what worries me is that everyone is so cocksure it’s going to be a democrat.


Why?

Before this whole thing is over, the democratic candidate, whoever they happen to be, will be through Hell in terms of attacks, groundless charges and the rest that the republicans and the ‘talking heads’ can conjure up.

The dirty tricksters have not disappeared; just gone underground til they need to reemerge with their bags full of money and their attack machines revamped.

I am worried.


The minister from Arkansas is good!

The best.

And don’t let that down home pitch fool you, he is as sharp as they come.

And he’s no pacifist. Whether he’s a zealot is yet to be seen but he struts his faith a little too much for my liking.

In any event, it is very easy to get lulled into believing that the democrats are entitled.

They are not.

We shall have to earn every vote.

Judging from the past, the party does not adapt to reality very well. It is slow to fend off adversity; believing that its message will get through.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

I hope we are capable of coming together –whomever is the choice—to hand the cabal in power the comeuppance it deserves.

And that will only happen when each of us realizes that we have a stake in the outcome.

The very best to each and every one of my political friends this tumultuous season.

Best wishes and “Happy Holidays”
