Obama: The Symptom of a Greater Ailment
By George De Vries III
January 20, 2017
Donald Trump often reprises the phrase "make America great again." "Great" is an adjective whose meaning is specific only within the context of its use. Relative to Obama's eight-year lecture and self-congratulatory tour, on balance, President Trump will make America better, but not great as it once was. We might have reached a threshold of divergent worldviews that will forever preclude our becoming again what we once were.
A nation, once a singularity, uniquely founded, a "city on a hill" among the nations of the world, has devolved into a nation in the midst of an ideological, sniveling and shouting civil war. Its founding documents and formed governing bodies reflected Christian values to those ends of living freely in responsible speech and action. Most importantly, they reflected the reality of human nature, which the Founders knew from observation needs wise and balanced governance commensurate with the liberty of the individual's pursuit of happiness. And God blessed that nation.
It's good to review the nut of our historic beginnings before no one remembers it anymore.
