I do think we as a nation are destroying ourselves from within. It's the polarization, the divided nation along with mega, ultra high partisanship where the old ways of playing the give and take game, compromise has been lost.

Today, it seems each party believes the other is out to destroy this nation and only one's party can save it. The other party has become this nation's number enemy. Not more than 20-25 years ago, both major parties recognized the goal of each party was the same, a prosperous, secure and free America. Only their path's to achieve that goal were somewhat different.

It's only going to get worse, regardless of who wins in November.


It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
