It has been said amongst civil historians that the ominous sign of a free society in serious decay is when governmental and cultural institutions both show signs of rampant infiltration by the misfit, the dimwit and the half wit.

It's safe to say that 230 years after our birth immortalized in anthem song by Francis Scott Key, those days in America have come. Ancient Rome had Caligula and Nero, we've had...well,  you know. This is much too early. The old Republic lasted for a millennium. What is happening to us?

One needs not a crystal ball, a crack pot's mentality, a prophet's foresight or a statistician's data to see what's actually going on. 5 years after 9/11, the 2 party system is two sheets to the wind and way out of touch and step with "We The People" and the prevailing temperament of a mad and restless unrepresented majority in this country who deal in cold, hard reality and not focus groups, poll surveys, special interests or political correctness.

At this time in our history, the polarization game of an inept two party system no longer works. We are at a crucial crossroads wherein the utopian idealism of the democratic experiment is still exclusively defined by the protection of rich or poor minorities while the masses remain largely neglected and isolated from the issues.

Conservative right wingers have sold the US out to the 3rd world for cheap labor.  Liberal left wingers want to keep our borders open for an endless unassimilating wave of illegal aliens who drive down wages and downsize the job market 
in much the same way as corporate powers that be who outsource our wealth and economy.

The American candle of freedom is buring at both ends. Political power only defined by the greed of the rich and the need of the poor threatens our survival. When unwelcome foreign nationals threaten to turn us into a global slave wage state, we're in dire straits. When the rich sell our future to the bottom line, we're as Lincoln warned, a land raped and pillaged by the money power.

Takeaways
  • Politics is a popularity contest of style minus substance; this is why we pick ill equipped leaders.
  • The way we choose our leaders mimes the voting of American Idol. Is this good, bad or surreal?
  • It's no coincidence that many Chief Execs hail from the lands of Andy Griffith and Forrest Gump.
Did You Know?
Whereas some of our old world leaders sold slaves, it seems the new ones are selling America itself. The US has been in sharp statistical decline for the past 15 years. And this is directly attributed to failed globalist new world order policy.

You picked out of context issues to miss the main point of my editorial, which was to stress the necessity of a 3rd party to lead this country and not to debate who profits from illegal immigration or who is a terrorist, homegrown or foreign born.

While I agree with many of your assertions, I must reply to one. It is the immigrants who are driving down the wages, it is the American employers who are hiring them and paying them less than the minimum wage. And as for immigrants flying planes into skyscrapers, well, it wasn't an immigrant who drove a Ryder truck up the federal building in Oklahoma City was it?
