A short work on the state of the present Government



The government of the Founding Fathers was a republic, for all to have a voice in, and one with a constitution that allowed for human weakness. The present government does not think we should follow this same constitution that has been our successful guide for many years. This government has deteriorated into something not unlike Communism, though it is not that bad yet.
The crime Edward Snowden is charged with is treason. Show me basis for that! He revealed nothing that would hurt us, but let Americans know what was going on. He is to be praised, in my opinion, for letting us know of the illegal activities carried on by the government.  We need to use that warning he has given us, and hold the government accountable for this.
The government is not formed up of elite people, the only ones eligible to hold an office! They are men and women of the same cut we are. They all came from our ranks, and depend on us to keep them in office. If we don’t like them, they do not get to stay. We decide. We send them up to Washington D.C. to do a good job of representing us and/or running the country.
 America, at the next election, read up about each candidate and find out what they believe in. Don’t believe 75% of what they say they are going to do, because they just want you to elect them. Politicians make promises that they don’t mean to keep, so you will think they will do what you want. Look at their voting history, what they have supported. If what they say goes against it, they probably are just saying they will do this or that. People don’t change their habits often, so what they have done is a good way to determine what they will do. Statistics are out there, and we use them for other things, like what to use against pests, for instance. People try things, and keep using them if they are successful. The stock market is predicted by statistics, too. People’s actions can be predicted, too. If the shoe fits, wear it!    
A good way, sadly, right now to determine which candidates to vote for is to look for the people called crazy, nutty, those things!? Our nation has come to a sad state when this is the way to tell that a certain person gets things done, does things right and according to the rules!
David Simpson is a State Representative in Texas, and people call him all sorts of things. But he gets the job done! He looks for reasons to do things, instead of just doing them! He is the kind of man we need, the kind that follows the rules as things that have a reason for being there, that hold others to do the same! Ted Cruz is another example. He is the junior Senator for Texas, and he makes them all mad up there in Washington D.C! He is getting things done, changing things that need it, making this country better!!
America, I want to challenge you. At the next election, take some time to look at the candidates’ backgrounds, what they have voted for and what they have not, and decide which ones are the best for America. Yes, it takes time, but time spent making a better country, to give your children a better life! Surely time well spent is worth it! You will not regret it. I challenge you, America! Show you care about your future and your children’s’!
