Our Fragile Democracy

Those freedoms well known to you and me, in our form of government, democracy, did not come with a forever guarantee.. Our forefathers fought for these liberties, put their lives on the line and got down on their knees.. It's our time now to protect these rights, from want a be autocrats within our sight.. If we don't stand up for our democracy, then we dare not complain when it ceases to be..

Thanks for your comment ilene and I hope you are well this summer. I know politics is extremely ugly but it scares me that some people are so quick to forget recent history. I'm trying to help out locally again as worthy seats will be challenged by the big pac monies here for certain. God bless
