If voters are thinking about following
socialism’s course, they should look carefully at two blatant examples of modern-day
socialism in our own experience, e.g., the failed USSR and Venezuela. Both of
those nations have failed in providing even the basic freedoms our nation and
other democratic nations of the world have deemed so desirable and fulfilling.
They lack freedom of religion, the press, speech, and their economies are in
shambles. Do we really want to go that way??!
Democrats
want us to follow the socialist play book. Don’t vote for them. Some Democrats
are saying in their campaigns that they support free market, Constitutional,
government and closure of the U.S. border to illegal immigration. If you believe
that, you should remember that if they are elected to a majority in the House
and Senate, they will elect a socialistic House Speaker and a socialistic leader
of the Senate. They will never vote to “Make America Great, Again.” Some of
them, such as one prominent candidate for mayor of New York, Andrew Cuomo,
famously said recently that “America never was that great.” Although 67% of New
York likely voters disagreed with him, his statement accurately portrayed the
opinion of many Democrats this year.
The passengers of
the Arbella who left England in 1630 with their new charter for an American
colony had a great vision. They were to be an example for the rest of the world
in rightful living. Future governor John Winthrop stated their purpose quite
clearly: "We shall be as a city upon a hill, the eyes of all people are
upon us."
I still
think America is that great “city on a hill.” Let’s put legislators in office who really
believe in America.
