God Bless America
I, your humble narrator, viewed both these videos in the same day.
One is relatively new. The other, 40 years old.
The differences–mind-boggling.
Whether Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu or what have you, I pray you join me in this meditation.
The United States was based on a premise of respect for the individual. We should each be committed to the collective. That may seem contradictory, but it’s not. When the collective recognizes the individual as its cornerstone, the collective is stronger.
The USA has pulled the World out of some deep stuff. We lead through it–up and down. I couldn’t be prouder, or would ever wish I were from another nation. It’s ours to complain, and ours to act.
It is the difference in Socialism and, certainly, Fascism, and certainly the difference of who we are as True Americans, the respects and loyalties to the individual freedoms.
That makes us stronger than anything else ever having been subjected to “diplomacy.”
God bless America. And God bless us all.
This AIN’T America no mo, okay?
