Dear Neil,

The America you write of has been gone for almost 70 years and it won't be revived by writing passionate essays no matter how well written they are.

Almost noone alive remembers what it's like to live in freedom.

What we are living in is a uniquely American version of the Fall of the Roman Empire.

"What we are living in is a uniquely American version of the Fall of the Roman Empire."

Perfect way to phrase it...

But...there is still time to change the direction our Nation is heading.

Just need another Horatio or two...

Agreed. If there ever was a "Real America", it's long gone. I'm rabidly patriotic and longing to see the destruction of our enemies only because the last best hope for Humanity is the continuation of this Republic.

We are the only only nation on Earth that has a chance of "waking up".

Bravo.....

...now then....how do we convice the large section of the US Populace that, in the hopes of them believing this will kick them outside of their "Comfort Zone" ?? ?? ??

You, sir, are a genius. One of a very few who sees clearly. My compliments.

Hi L,

I'm glad I followed you here.

What we are living in is a uniquely American version of the Fall of the Roman Empire.

Yes.

redrock, outstanding post -- I don't completely agree with LNS, but he has some good points.

"What we are living in is a uniquely American version of the Fall of the Roman Empire."

I do agree. My America has died. I do not know whether it will arise again like the Phoenix Bird from the ashes, but at this moment, my concern is for my family only. It is they whom I will take care of. I imagine that many people throughout history have thought the same way when they saw their own nations die.

A shiver went up my spine when I read this statement.
