    I hear you loud and clear and have said for many years I worry for my kids and grand kids. Regardless of what happens this November, we are in a diaper full of poop.

    One thing that is setting the stage is who is really an American and what does it mean to be an American? We have socialists in congress. We have islamic radicals in congress. We have bought and paid for politicians in congress. All of them claim to be an American but fail the characteristics of what an American is. Add to that the major influx of immigrants over the last 10 - 20 years (or longer) and you begin to see the gradual decay of what an American is.

    The answer? People need to stop living in a comfort zone and realize it is not all about them and their so called freedoms. Individual freedoms are nothing is we are not America as our forefathers intended.

    There is more I can say, but the number 1 thing we need to do is be on our knees praying, at all times, that we the people become wise in this fight.

    Tell me something I don't know.. Be concerned for your kids also.. Raising children in the environment that surrounds us, and I don't mean the threat of climate change, has to be a huge challenge. As soon as they are convinced that they have buried Trump deep enough they will do their best to demonize anyone who steps in his shoes. It's the plan of the Dems to keep us at each other's throats. They could care less about hardships or death, they just want to control those that are remaining. I can't imagine anything other than prayer overcoming the evil that those in power are sewing in the population's heart. For me, keep my head down, vote, and look at any idea that comes from DC very skeptically.. The powers that be have lost ALL credibility in my eyes.

    Unless your ancestors had names like "Running Bear," I'm betting there are more than a few immigrants in your woodpile.

    I'd love to hear your take on what a "real" American is.

    Living in America, isn't being an American. Being an American, is standing up for our country, our freedoms, and our way of life, against the tyranny. From those that invade our borders, and those that invade from within our borders.
    Americans need to wake up, and actually be prepared to defend ourselves against any and all threats to our lives.
    If history repeats, a revolutionary war is upon us, and Americans need to realize it before our rights and weapons are stripped from us.

    Would you be surprised if Trumps “people” were floating the idea of a pardon ala Ford/Nixon
    to “preserve the dignity of the office” and “the long national nightmare is over”
    but the administration requires him to shut up and not run for any public office again.

    I recently got to listen to a talk by Susan Eisenhower, the granddaughter of Ike.

    At one point she commented that Ike was so successful because he listened to absolutely everybody. He was more interested in getting it right than he was in having it his way. She went on to say that the problem with our current leaders is that they are more interested in having it their way than in getting it right. Everyone in the audience shook their head in agreement. We all know it is true, but how do we fix it? I doubt Ike could win an election today, if someone like him could even be talked into running in the first place.

    The United States needs immigration, and lots of it. Other countries around the world are suffering from declining demographics as the baby boomers retire. There are not enough people in the younger generations to fill the jobs of the ones that are retiring. This is less the case in the US though. The United States have always been a country of immigrants. The best of other countries come hear for a better life and the US has flourished because of it.

    We need to change our mindset regarding immigration. To some degree, the problems caused in the US are the result of people that are too far from their immigrant roots to understand that immigration is good for this country. Who is more likely to share the value of the hard work ethic and the rewards it brings: the welfare recipient that has generations of knowledge of how to scheme the system and live on the labor of others through government handouts or, the person that walked 1000 miles through Mexico to have a shot at earning a better life in the US?

    I’m not saying that we should have open borders, but that we should see immigrants as bringing value to this country. The vast majority of us are here through immigration. Maybe not us, but our parents, grand parents, great grand parents and beyond.

    The primaries are a problem right now. Any candidate that is not an absolute zealot is quickly dismissed. Should a democratic candidate for president even suggest support for the 2A, they will be vilified and expunged from the election. Only caricatures of the party beliefs make it through an election primary. Our screwed up primary system is why we have the worst of the worst up for national office. In 2016, our choices were Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Trump is brilliant at running things, but has a level of arrogance that makes him an easy target for any opponent to hate. Clinton is the definition of evil incarnate. Yet, these were our choices. Better candidates existed on both sides but the litmus test of the primaries did not produce the best choice, but, on the democratic side, possibly the worst choice in the history of American elections.

    Blaming Biden for everything that is wrong is very short sighted. There is a long list of people that have responsibility. Trump included to an extent. DC is of the mindset that there is no limit to how much money they can print.

    What is coming of the world today ?
    We are on a path towards a new world order and one world government. And there are plenty of American politicians and political activists working toward that one world goal, current president included. He recently thanked other UN leaders for “tolerating” him.

    I believe the Bible is true and biblical prophecies will come true. One of the biggest prophecies is the rise of a one world government that will facilitate the Antichrist’s rise to power. My personal belief Is that we’re starting to see that unfold.

    If that’s true then this is bigger than politics and bigger than America. Voting is important, educating others is important but like the other post said, the best thing we can do is be on our knees praying. Praying for our leaders, our country and most importantly for our loved ones that this mess will be left too.
