American Democracy for all to see


  The world can now see American Democracy fashioning the guiding principles and values that promote unity but the corrosive self-serving nature of Capital Power that runs co-lateral with it may never successfully coalesce. 

  While Democracy serves the Citizens Sovereignty, Capital Power serves only itself.

  Only one can truly rule.

All I know is nothing good is coming. Well, there is a great Awakening but many many evil people are getting away literally with murder. We can only get right with God because I believe there is no political party in most countries that is free from corruption

I once came across an essay of Emerson's but didn't know about his relationship with Henry Thoreau. I read "Walden" in that same period too. Emerson's "God" was probably "Eastern" in effect. His primary Values: Self-Reliance: Trust your inner voice over "Conformity". Transcendentalism: The inherent good of all living. The Over-Soul: The ubiquitous "Universal mind".

Love the top reply you put for me down here. Sorry. I don't see replies like that unless I happen to revisit the poem where said reply is placed!

but something positive too. "So near is grandeur to our dust, so near is God to man; When duty whispers: "lo' thou must", The youth replies; "I can!" - R.W. Emerson

The Bible describes angels in heaven with vials pouring out poisons that destroys certain quantitys of different life forms on Earth and we are today, actually experiencing the destruction of those life forms, but we're the ones doing it and if we have the power to do that then we certainly have the power to stop it! Anyone or anything who gets in the way of the program To Save The Earth is EVIL and must be desisted and denied by any means at our disposal. We will succeed because we must. There's no alternative.

No democracy in my humble opinion. :)

The Founders understanding of the object of government; i.e. '... in order to form a more perfect union', created a hybrid from the Greco-Roman Empire. As a result, We, "the People" exist in A Perpetual Revolution of becoming! Each is morally bound to bring to our community those Acts that establish our best love that it may flourish.
