Each day as I read the various and assorted opinions by well know columnists, pundits and poorly informed readers, I am so disappointed by the ignorance of their statements. So many of the statements are so racist as to served up with a burning cross. Since the beginning of this country race has been an economic issue and secondly a color “thing”. Some Americans have not made much progress beyond the antebellum era of the United States. Our Congress has never made the leap to modern times but have made a few allowances such as allowing women and people of color to serve in their hallowed chambers while keeping the same attitude of elitism. When a member actually shows an initiative towards the real job of serving in a Congressional manner are shut down or bought off with an assist for their constituents. This leaves the majority of Americans twisting in the wind and ripe for plucking by any reasonable sounding right, left or radical sect. The envisioned America is one in which the voters can trust their representatives. We are twisting in the wind and buffeted by gale force winds of B.S.
