You say you want a revolution...

I believe in America…even though our country is extremely polarized and McCain and Obama are making promises they can never keep. I believe in America, we must overcome, we must find resolve, we must dig deep and rekindle our patriotism, which has moved into a dormant phase, and America has become a cemetery of hope!
At some point in our history we have developed a culture of losing. America, whom at one point could overcome any obstacle. In our short history as a country we during times of trouble have sat down at the table of discussion and developed plans that help us overcome any problem that our nation faced. We were a family, we had each others interest at heart and we had each others back! We are Americans! Even though our political views may be in opposition we would table personal agenda’s and look for common ground. Selfishness and unwillingness to agree on major issues have forced us into a political gridlock that hurts everyone in the long run!
Morality and ethics have become a distant memory as people are trying to get the entire pie other than just one piece. Where will it end? Corporate greed and crooked politicians has left us with no consensus on where we are as a nation. We are not sure on the direction that we are heading. Something has to give.
I am proposing complete political and educational reform! “You say you want a revolution?” We need to throw the bums out! Democrats and Republicans who have had their hands deep in our pockets for way to long and we need to put a stop to it! As for education, we are doing a horrible job at educating the future because we have taken the competitive spirit that made our country strong and replaced it with low expectations. Something really needs to give. Minimum requirements are to low and our future is routinely losing against other nations.
I realize that pride comes before a fall and believe this may be the reason that we are in the position we are currently in. I also believe there is a good pride…the pride that causes you to well up when you see old glory or hear our national anthem played. America, we truly need to love her! We need to look back to the foundation of this republic and dream! We need to dream and put into place a mindset that will benefit future generations. We need to turn to a Holy and Sovereign God and ask Him to restore us. America…more than anything…we need to pray!
