Abraham

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter, and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” Abraham Lincoln

Needless to say Abraham Lincoln is my all time favorite US President. Sorry Jeffersonian, we do not study much about him in Gaza.

This got me to think about that so many people I met in my career in the United States, in Blue, purple, and red states. A great deal of individuals who are loyal Republicans tend to have insecurities about the United States position as Super Power in the World. I think it would be safe to say that such insecurities hold such voters from trusting the Democrats- viewed soft or less aggressive. So such insecurities are based on fear that this great power, the United States might not maintain its power if it was not aggressive. In away the risk is obvious when you vote a Democrat, but not so when you vote Republican, and that's the problem.

This trend migrates to other countries. No one wants to see their country weak (whatever that may be) Israel is the same way, when they are not at war, they want a peaceful break; when they have a break, then it is the guys that are up for war. It is a cycle. No, I think it is more like a medicine that generates its own disease. for example, the moment a party has power, the moment that everyone expects them to do good things, disappointed, people turn around for the other party.
