Your post is great. I wish you were running for President.
Thank you. I don’t know what to say.
Except, I would hope that my beliefs as a most ordinary citizen are shared by millions upon millions of my fellow citizens.
It’s too easy. You don’t have to be an ideologue to see enlightened self interest in preserving the social, political and (dare I say it?) spiritual framework that made these United States both free and great!
Personal liberty is a treasure beyond understanding. Except, when I was deployed to Uzbekistan in 2003-04, I listened in abject horror as a very attractive young Uzbek woman told me that she admired Josef Stalin! Being part of the huge and mighty USSR meant more to her than my small attempt to persuade her of the advantages of freedom and human rights.
Even so, I have faith that this great America will never be conquered.
