America’s future is leaders

A little homework on the facts, civility in discourse, and loyalty to the national interest will go a long way. Yet few seem willing to step up to the plate. After all it is much easier to be unruly and even use bad language to display one’s point of view, or frustration, or cynicism. Even worse, it appears much of our old time media names are attempting to influence our votes and our country to gain their (present owners and paymasters) political point of view. Most of these people will be in another job in ten years, and perhaps be bitter about their experience in being exploited by their educators and their hirers. They will get little sympathy when they went down another path than leadership.

The original idea of an investigative reporter is still alive and well. This type of person is in a hurry, but never in enough of a hurry to use internet searches like Google as their main source. They actually talk to people, and maybe even use the internet to help the process. These people are due respect as contributors to leaders who can listen, and learn.

There is at best about 16% of America, very well organized and funded by ways I wished I could learn, who try run our country through the Democratic Party. But they too are not leaders, but bitter complainers mostly. Politically, I could handle them, too, if only they would offer leadership. Then I might have a voting choice.

We Americans have choices, thank goodness. We should encourage candidates to step up to the plate. Those that are manipulators, not leaders, will be rejected at all levels, local, state, and federal. The key point is leaders who look out for our national interests will succeed. The whole industry of hired campaign mangers and their whole entourage will wash away with the vote. The country is the same, the voters sentiment is different, and in this the dinosaurs will die, and rot on the plains of America.
