We See What We Want To See

In America, some people see glasses half EMPTY, and 
their glasses will never be full in spite of their ABILITY.
In America, we are becoming a nation of less independence           
and more DEPENDENCY. In America, some people see glasses                   half FULL, and they will never sat or cease to push and PULL.

In America, some people see blue STATES and devote                    
themselves to those states, spending valuable time and                    
resources in DEBATES. In America, some people see red                        
states and PLEDGE their loyalties to those states, hoping                             to gain an EDGE.                                                                                      

In America, some people see neither blue nor RED. They too                    
have a belief system, and they too want to get AHEAD. They                      too have political party affiliations and also pray and VOTE.                      They choose more civility, not in being confrontational to rock                    
the BOAT. They see The United States of America as one nation              under God, without DIVISION. This is the way they have chosen                  to believe and see, contrary to anything else in their VISION.
