'Restore' it back to what greatness?

I'm not saying it wasn't, or still isn't, great..but it seems to me that it's a pretty generic battle cry and different people have different ideas of what is great or not.

Well, I have have my own ideas of what greatness is...and it sure as hell isn't what this president and his administration is attempting to turn it into!!! Fundamentally change us...?! I don't think so! We do not need to be fundamentally changed onto something we are not and have not ever been!...a socialist, marzist, communist country, with government growing bigger and bigger, intruding into every open orafice of our body!!!

I personally (as I am am sure 80% of the rest of this country is as well!) am damn sick and tired of all this bull****, I've had all I can stomach of this crap...and it's OVER!!!...come November, some sunshine is going to peak through some very dark clouds!!! I can not wait to vote!!!

I would also like to know when exactly the US was great. When we know what period you have in mind, we can analyze why things were greater then, if they were...

Okay, now we're getting somewhere...but it's still very generic. What would YOU like to see future as? And please, not generic things like 'smaller government' and whatnot.

The country is already partially socialist and we have been for quite some time, so I'm not sure what you mean by that. Marzist? Not sure what that is, but I'm going to assume you mean Marxist. Marxism, communism and socialism are not one in the same, nor are they interchangeable. So, which do you think we're turning into? A little bit of both? Yeah, we've been there for quite some time. All of them? Not likely.

There would be no need for government to get involved in every aspect of people's lives if people (yeah, I said it) were a bit smarter. Look at the world around you...it's filled with complete and utter idiots, regardless of political ties or religious ideology. WE brought his on OURSELVES. Changing a few politicians isn't going to help.

Suggestions on how to keep the liars and buyers out of office. Suggestions on how to get universal morality and respect for each other. It's going to take a group of people, called the Morality and Respect Party to make any real change. The MRP. But too many WANT more than the next. THINK, ignorantly, they are better than the next. This causes anger. Anger causes conflict. Conflict causes war. War causes death. Mass death leads to extinction. And for all the wars and lack of learning that has transpired from them, we should be extinct. Huh. Miracles never cease. It's a bona fide miracle, that we're able to sit at our computers and voice opinions here at CD.

With morality and respect, there are no TRUE gray areas.
