The American dream will never be over. It is so New World.

The past mining of our national wealth by status quo politicians and their vast hired staffs is over. Suppose our present day robber barons were politicians and their staffs? After all these politicians have demonized modern corporate Americans. There is a good case for we believing this, both ways. Why else, to make it seem simple, are so many immigrants still coming here, all the while we are going through financial turmoil, to be kind. And why do so many politicians and their staffs advance their social agendas at our expense, as in while we are going under. Are they also going under? Many would like to know?

The best intended can also be our worst enemies. Decades of trying to address under lying causes as to poverty and world and American racism, albeit at the expense of just doing the basics, like providing police protection and building enough prisons, have come down to murders of our best and brightest kids in college: by old fashioned robbers for money of two girls at UNC and Auburn being recent examples of this horror. Now at last, people can vote for and even demand a two pronged approach which includes basic police protection, for example, and also trying to improve our society. In no way should we as an American society accept anything other than the rule of law. Standards should always trump excuses. When one leaves academia and liberal sponsors, finally we can think about other more productive ways to make American better, as in to become New World. Either way, dumping past failure is so obvious. And the failures abound.

And this is the beauty of America and the New World. The desire and intent to make things better is always there, but so is the willingness to change course and admit mistakes. Our last four or more decades of political elected rulers have what most would say is a proven record of failure. Why reinforce their failure, and their ideas, with more of the same, especially with our money? As profound as this obvious question is, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are still running in the old fashioned mode, as if our money is the only answer. Mission and accountability and achievement still account to many, and other courses of action are called for in the New World to improve our future.

To end this idealistic discussion, let’s be practical. Good intentions and political ambition count for little. Our votes should be for those who advance our National Interests at the local, state, and federal levels. Just what do we expect, as in to have to go to court and sue. How about the old days when our votes counted, as well as the hard work of our local citizens. How about when we went to war when politics and diplomacy failed. Do we expect lawyers and politicians to decide the answer, and what happens if the enemies don’t “go along”. Sounds like the old fashioned go to war times. How about when parents dictated the school curriculum for their kids, and the school teaches and administers responded (it does still happen by the way).

Change is underway. Mostly it is standards. Thoughts of entitlement are like the old Proverb in that all my ancestors honors are all their own.
