I want you to listen to me thru the voices of history
For those of you new(er) to the political strife that will be yours into a long and hopefully fulfilling life as an American citizen...in this political season, please review the contents of a real speech by a real politician-full of flaws tis' true but necessary to the soul of what it can mean to be an American citizen...
Political life was not always the way it is today.
Listen to the hope and the license to demand more from ourselves and from our leaders from yesterday. How do we know we can do better?? Because they did better.
Demand more from our leaders. They deserve it. Today's barbaric rhetoric from second rate hacks in the media or elsewhere and meat fisted diatribes from the likes of Donald Trump is beneathe our capability as a culture, as a people or as a collective human race.
We have done better and we will do better.
Compare the dialogue Republican Trump wants you to have with the presidential dialogue you deserve to have.
