We are the UNITED States of America!!
We were! Currently, the country is not united.
We are a house divided ideologically, and it is long past time to part company.
United works when there are common goals. Otherwise, one side is always kicking and screaming about how the other is destroying their way of life.
While there seems to be a self realignment between red and blue states, the overreaching federal government ensures nearly half will always be upset.
