America Declining

As veterans who served our great country, have we considered the current condition of America?  I hope  that, as citizens, we are taking  note of the decline of our cultural values, of our inability to lead in the world, and the movement away from the free enterprise system and the worth of the individual.    There is an uneasiness in the land, a frustration with our government in Washington DC, a "waking up" to the fact that actions are not being taken that are in the best interests of the people.  Americans are displaying their concerns in both political parties and in a number of different ways.   Multiple streams of political movements and opinions but all come from the prevailing thought that America needs help, fresh leadership, and a return to the founding principles.  Veterans can play a part in this most critical period in history by being involved in the political process and demanding accountability from our leaders and those who want to replace them.   Veterans have paid the price to be able to express their views on why a new direction is needed, and soon.
