Dear America, We'll live to tell about it!


President Obama said: "We need to reject any politics that targets people because of race or religion. This isn't a matter of political correctness. It's a matter of understanding what makes us strong. The world respects us not just for our arsenal; it respects us for our diversity and our openness and the way we respect every faith."

In my personal opinion, the one thing President Trump doesn't understand that President Obama understood from day one is that America must be more than just another Alpha Dog. Top dogs come and go. What makes America unique is that we became a beacon of hope for all. Like any lighthouse beacon, we should also remember that the water is full of dangerous rocks; capable of sinking this ship of hope for all. White Nationalism places us in danger of becoming another sunken ship along the shores of falling nations.
Mr. President, it is not about our arsenal; it is about our openness, our diversity.  Close America's openness, paint diversity as the enemy, and we become just another temporary top dog until the next top dog comes along.
President Trump clearly doesn't get this. It is essential we understand that his time is limited, and his thinking will pass ~ just like this thinking has always passed.

Stick to the aspiration of something more America, make those pledge words real "Liberty and Justice for All". Trust me America, this man who doesn't understand will not last, like all the haters before him, he too shall fade; and we shall live to tell about it.
Come November 3rd.  2020, I am voting out the man who doesn't understand,
