Our elected officials are just citizen servants charged with the assume responsibility. They should not only be looking at the needs of the present, but also considering the future. Today too many of the people serving in Washington seem to be looking more to the next election or next year then the ramification of their decisions made today. This short sightedness can lead to disaster. Not only their legislation but their words are very important.
The President holds a very special position in this nation. He helps to set the example for the nation and by his words alone can make dramatic changes to the culture. President Obama was elected as much of an unknown to many of those who voted for him. Mr. Obama like any president is responsible for holding the nation’s people together, to comfort them in times of trouble, and console them in times of need, hardship, or disaster. But he has failed at every attempt to do so.

Those whose jobs requires the protection of the innocent citizens must make sure that those willing to ignore the rules of a civil society are not encouraged by their actions. No matter if you agree with what you are doing or not the needs of the many do outweigh the wants of the few. The President has and continues to fail every time he makes inflammatory statements to incite violence.
We must find leaders who are willing to not only protect the nation from enemies from without but from within. When leaders no longer are willing to make the hard choice and serve only their narrow minded objectives, then we as a people will not be a nation for much longer. The violence in the streets being promoted and applauded by many who claim leadership roles are not what is best for our nation. Before this cold race war becomes a hot race war, those who are pushing it should really look at will could be gained and lost. It is not always the leaders of the revolution who wind up in power. Minority armies even with the support of the government may find that they are just pawns in a bigger game.
It is time for those in Washington and around the nation to step up, take responsibility, and do their jobs. Or we as a people must band together to restore law and order to our nation before it collapses under its own weight.
