The type of country we once were is history. The type of people we once were is history. The type of people we have become is PATHETIC. Based on the last few elections, people do NOT care and do NOT take the election process seriously. This is why we have a community activist as President. This is why we have Corslime as Gov. This is EXACTLY why I am scared to death!
Don't be scared...it is a waste of energy and a submission to that which you can control (why submit to something you are capable of controlling?). Instead, begin focusing on the things that really matter...like right now. It is silly to worry about a future both out of your control and not guaranteed. It is surely true that those who died on 9/11 did not care what our reaction to it would be.

You also forgot to mention that the GOP is meaningless in the American landscape because they too got all caught up in the wrong things. It is a human nature devoid of truth, which is, of course, not true human nature. Until we get back to our selves, we will never get back to our selves.

In that I say action is certainly more important that then words and diversion on forums like this and the media who is only good at creating such diversions. Worry about your self, improving your self, finding your self, and disciplining your self and not about anything else and you will find the strength to change the world.

Pick up "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior" by Dan Millman. I have read it about 7 times and still am learning. Not to mention other books on a similar topic, but that is a good starting point. Of course I am assuming you can stretch from your box long enough to try it.
