Race And Your Vote

Are you allowing "race" to decide your vote? We are all of one race, the product of Adam and Eve. There are many colors but we are all brothers and sisters. There is only "one race," the human race. For example, would you vote for a Jew?

The Supreme Commandant saw fit to have a Jewish woman, a member of a nation existing in Palestine from the 6th century BC., to be the mother of his son. Would you in today's world vote against his decision? "Race" should never divide the world; we are all "one." Standing together we win, divided we fall.

There are no pure bloods. If you have doubts, check with a thorough DNA analysis, it will surprise you how many blood lines you have. Our greatest world leaders have come about when the world's leadership has failed, as in 1929. They changed a negative into a positive with many new laws and social programs.

Our new leaders of today have a great responsibility and a chance to prove their worthiness to govern and to be good stewards of this earth. "He is watching from afar."

Good democratic government demands term limits. This can come about by never voting for an incumbent. We have limited our presidency to two terms only; those other offices either elected or appointed should never exceed the term limits of a president. After leaving office there should be a five year period before they can lobby.
