Winds of change are about

These are momentous times. For those that think about it, we are going through what many of an ancestors went through, albeit, for different reasons. This makes our times special, and unique. After so many decades of Democrat and Republican rule, perhaps there is another way.

Most Americans want change in their own mind. And unfortunately Obama is not “the one”. He did ride the idea of change into office, but Americans still want “real” change. Much has been said about partisan bickering and all, but I think most just think and vote about America first, and along with that idea, our families and our children first. Otherwise they are too busy with their families and businesses to take the time to keep a closer tab. That’s just the way we are.

The era of big government is over it was once said. Change suggests there are maybe better alternatives to big governments, at all levels. And some alternatives may work better than others. In so many ways, we Americans are pretty blue collar and selfish, as in our own interests trump all. This is so human and American, and still seems to be a majority; that still pays taxes.

In a time of great American marketing techniques (perhaps propaganda) it is still important to listen. Most people will tell you what is important to them, if you are willing to listen to them. And change still seems to be a message of a basic national need to go another way. After decades of Democrat and Republican rule, there are alternatives to these two parties.

Hence, the winds of change.
