Our untry is so vided right now and we are the precipice of a revolution in this country from internal sources. I blame that on the politicians for inaction. Not addressing issues at home. Kicking the can down the road, hoping someone will come up with the solutions down the road. Internally, we he become so divided. You can pass the blame around to the media and politicians, weve experienced something in the last 12 years that is unprecedented in this country wher other and claim that we are the United States and its a real shame. A lot of the blame i thought it was just politicians and ability to act in a bipartisan way on issues that 90 of them agree. There may be some sticking points. ■o thing so we can agree on first. And we will move those down the road. Just i to ignore it altogether because of the sticking points. Congress has basically done the last two years.

You have the Homeless People on the stres. Very few of them are being taken care of. Veteran issues, people are not paying enough attention. I think our military is overextended. Wasting money on frivolous wars overseas. We need to put the focus back on the United States and we need to put the focus back on being united of working together as a country. We seem to have completely forgotten. Host we got the point, yeah. Le■dts hear from dell on the democrat line.
