AMERICA - Why we first came here

There is a joke among native born white Americans, it goes something like this, " I was born in a log cabin in the woods, which I helped to build." '
    End of joke.
    It grows from an old joke about Lincoln: "Lincoln was born......." you get the drift. As I progress into the middle of my 70th decade, this country grows further away from everything that I was taught and learned about it's great self. The old0timers like me, have to fight, sometimes our own selves to hang on to what the core feelings about what we are. Mersy own background: French, Dutch, German, English, Irish. There, you have it. Others, all different. Religions, Geez - you name it, and that's the best thing about us, I think. Run the fone directory, longest listing next to plumbers, everything from American Zulu Baptists to Zimba Cymbal Worshippers and everything in between. Whatever floats your boat. Come one, come all. At my church, we have an interesting array of colors depending on the tribes of Africa and India left side of pews, first 10 rows.
    And, businesses? That's another reason people come here. Freedom to do what they want. Remember the MARIEL boat races out of Cuba. Newspaper headlines once said, " Castro send us his worst." (Maybe) He also send us the brothers who make fine watches. They opened in New York, now they run ads in the Wall Street Journal for wrist watches that sell for $2500. Thanks Fidel.
    I'd like to believe we still are the land of the free and the home of the brave. As of July, 2014, I am sure that the core of that feeling rests with American Military. The country's heart stands behind our men and women in Uniform, there warm feelings of our people rest.
    The true nature of the current president has surfaced, his disapproval ratings, now apparent to all in the country, have shown that the mid-term elections will carry us through the last two years, of his term, washed clean of the Socialist mindset he has bent the will of the country onto and maybe, just maybe, we can right the mainsail and clear sail into port. God willing. I fear for this country today.
    I fear for the truth that will come out once the current president has vacated 1600 Avenue and we see the truth of his infidelity, starting with his left handed salute, bowing to a Saudi, Muslim Prince, and God knows what else.

Pennsylvania
    God save and protect our country.
