America Rocks

I love the elections—Americans taking a stand for who or what they believe in.  Even when everything doesn’t turn out exactly as my heart wishes, I revel in the process.  I take pride in the knowledge that a country, so divided one night, can come together in acceptance and strength the following morning.  To think that often times such changes in power can only be had by wars or revolutions.  Our forefathers fought hard for the system of democracy we now enjoy and I thank them for it.  I have faith in our Constitution.  It has held strong for many years and I know it will continue to hold strong through all winds of change.  I am, indeed, proud to be an American.

  2. What can I say, I love to use the word 'rocks' as an adjective/verb. Perhaps I stole it from a fictional character who is a lot cooler than I am. :)

  3. We too love the process but are at times flabergasted by the american people. This one was a lose/win for us. Lets do away with the elections process and just have a guitar hero battle for political power. Then we could have that 7 year old kid featured on Ellen running our country, why not?
