Grateful Or Great?

Let's help MAKE AMERICA GRATEFUL AGAIN. What do we have to be grateful for? We are a free people. We listen to, watch and read the news we choose. We elect the people we choose to lead us, for better or for worse. Across the world there are few people who can say the same. No one can tell us how to vote or for whom. That would be illegal. We can be swayed and there is the devil in our democracy.
       A candidate for office can explain how he, or she, wants to make life better for you and that's how we sway voters some of the time. But most of the time candidates lie about each other and about what they can and will do for you. And far too often those are lies. Promises which the candidate knows full well cannot be delivered.  And what's worse, they do it on video and audio.
       The same is true for the lies told about opponents. Told on air, lies are ignored when they are held up for public scrutiny. It's not what I said. It was misinterpreted. But there they are for all to see. And the list goes on and on. And then we begin to get into the rhelm of criminality. Laws get broken and covered up which is a crime in and of itself, and the faithful follow. Some because they see a financial reward if only they allow the crimes to be overlooked.
       It's time to MAKE AMERICA GRATEFUL AGAIN. Grateful to live in this free society Grateful to have a nation of laws. Respect for the rule of law. Grateful for the right to choose who you will vote for without the lies. Lies can never make America great. Gratitude will make us great.
