I Am U S American - Are You?

I am so tired of hearing journalist, magazine article authors, song writers, jingle creators and everyone I meet refer to themselves or anyone else as being "a good American" or "the American dream". Hugo Chavez would consider himself as a "good American". He lives in South America but "American" nevertheless.

The Prime Minister of Canada is an American. Do you think he grew up with the "American Dream"?

Hollywood and the journalist of this country and the world for that matter began using the term "American" to refer to us and it caught on. Never mind that it makes no sense for us to refer to ourselves as part of the entire three continents, North, Central and South America. It was hard to come up with a short term to refer to people from the United States of America so "American" was adopted.

Along with adopting that term we lost our uniqueness in the world. It was only a matter of time before we began to lose our image as well. This country has become divided among the right, left and left out. We must put our Politicism aside and begin to think as a United country. We have to put "political correctness" and any other false front that was devised to split us up out of the way so we can grow strong again and prosper as a country and as a people. We have led the parade so far and we need to stay ahead in the future.

A Dangerous Trend Coming From The Superior Court Of The United States of America.

The latest decision of our country's Superior Court is a trend toward Facism. It does not seem to matter which party is officially in office as President because this country has now bowed to the Corporatism of the country.

The Court decided it was okay for corporations to contribute to a candidate for political office. That means the corporations will have overwhelming influence in how a candidates will vote while in office. It is the only way it can end up because human nature bows to money. It is very hard to pass up millions of dollars and the future of your family is secured overnight. Money means too much in everyday life for the average person to be strong enough to turn it down in favor of unbiased actions.

That said, we have to approach each situation learning from the last and this country and society in general seems to have a hard time doing this. Most of us approach life with the attitude that if what is happening in the world does not touch my family I do not have the energy to deal with anything else in my life. Our society here in the United States is tired of chasing the almighty buck only to have it crash and burn right in front of us.

What can we do? End the Politicism and come together once again into a great country that the world strives to emulate.
