Our current leader is an excellent orator, but he lacks wisdom, and his arrogance is an insult to the American people. I do believe the above quote apply fits.

We all have opinions whether we share them or not. From my point of view, I truly believe that our current leaders in Congress lack wisdom, yet their power of position leads them to believe they have wisdom, more wisdom than the majority of people they are supposed to represent. They falsely believe they can make better decisions on our behalf. Do you really think they are right? If not, let your voice be heard!

Take the 2nd Amendment as an example. There are those in Washington who are doing there best to prohibit the use of all fire arms. They want to use their power to prohibit our ability to protect ourselves; thus they are contributing to a crime against the citizens of this United States by hiding new legislation in current bills to be passed by congress. Deception at the highest level is a crime of evil.

Our educational system will make us a stronger nation or doom us to peril to repeat the mistakes of other nations. Standards should always be kept high not lowered. When society places their trust in their government to manage education, medical health and welfare, that is the beginning of the downward spiral of a nation into mediocrity, followed by anarchy and a revolution. Our current leaders are pushing us straight toward mediocrity at this very time in history. Are you concerned enough to speak up?
