We are not our founding fathers, nor are we living in their times.
Not Our Founding Father's Nation By Franklin Price 7/7/2016 Not our founding father's nation That we're living in today We're no longer using horses To move ourselves along the way Autos, planes and satellites Make this country very small The World is not much bigger All is at our beck and call Information instantaneous Don't have to wait for print No time to think what's happening To know if we came or went TV news and internet Tell us lies until they're caught If unlucky they've convinced us What they're selling we have bought Retractions often hidden In the text of future lies Misuse of new technologies Is something I despise The Constitution still applies And the Holy Bible too New interpretations needed For the times we're going through Be careful to whom you listen Determine what is false or fact Ride figuratively on a founder's horse To determine how to act
