Well it’s getting down to that time in this election cycle that I’m sick of it. All the candidates do is spend their time attacking each other. This other candidate is worse than me because…. This is not constructive, nor does it do our state, or nation’s history the justice it deserves.
Where is the change? Where are the plans to help Vermonters and Americans live out and afford their lives? Where is the foresight to say this is the future we want to have and these are the steps we’re going to take to get there?
Another election, another disappointment. Are there no great people or do great people not run for public office? We live in argueably the best state, in the best nation in the world. Why the negativity? Our fate is not pre-determined. In the words of Tom Petty, “the future’s wide open.”
Vermonters, Americans have persevered. No matter how bad things have been, we’re still here. We’ve banded together before and overcome obstacles. New Hampshire Grants, Independence, statehood, civil war, depression, World Wars, and every war since.
We will make it. We just need good leaders, and a plan to get us there. We will live more in harmony with our environment. We will feed everyone, we will make sure if someone is hurt, sick or ill they have access to the medical attention they need. We will make sure everyone has a roof over their heads, and a safe place to sleep at night.
We will make sure everyone has a fair slice of the American dream. We will provide equal access to the resources people need to live productive and satisfying lives. America cannot be about survival of the fittest. We will not, and cannot leave the economically disadvantaged behind. If we fail in this, are we truly the greatest state, the greatest nation on earth?
