Blessings History Circus,
Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your contribution to the thread and historical knowledge.
I've seen your Avatar and assumed you were a History Major or a major student of history. I hoped you could contribute more than I as I don't claim to be historically or politically minded. My posts were sourced on the internet.
Referencing hatred of Indians and prefacing the way we were only brings attention to it. If we have not completely evolved beyond racism, prejudice and greed whose fault is that? It is the parents and the elders who teach the children.
The post was not about Presidents who lie as political promises tend to be broken. It was not about forgiving our ancestors, although we should. It was not about crooked politicians.
It was about words (although sometimes superficial), our current economic situation and our Constitutional Rights being derailed.
It was the thought that counts. The fact that history repeats itself, that lessons have not been learned and the hope that the words may inspire some people to vote, to stand up for themselves, to make a difference in their brother's, their sister's, their children's and grandchildren's future.
To stand up to the bureaucracy...
To understand that without desire there is no hope...
AND WITHOUT HOPE THERE IS NO FUTURE!
Voting for Politicians that support Bailouts is voting for the destruction of our Constitution...VOTE THIRD PARTY
