Nobody is going to get everything, from one candidate, in any election.

We have to save ourselves as a sovereign nation so that we CAN deal with the other issues.

Yes, I agree with both you and Mother Teresa:
"America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has shown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father's role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts ~ a child ~ as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience.

"It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters. And in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign." -Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, "Notable and Quotable," Wall Street Journal, 2/25/94

Very well said! If a President Trump, really fixes the border, and the trade imbalance, he will have saved the country. Without those basic changes, we simply don’t have a viable country for much longer. Personally, I’d like to see a major effort on putting the people who made this mess away too.
