what i love most about america

---

I love America because I can emulate Bob Dylan's description of a successful person. I can wake up in the morning and go to bed at night and in between do whatever I want to do. Once more I can hang my MEGA hat where the weather suits my clothes. If my mood runs Nordic there are the Rocky Mountain States. The Blustery coast of New England and the Changing of the Seasons in Vermont. Or, like a migrating salmon I can  head Northwest for the windblown Puget Sound.  On the other hand I can put on some Beach Boys.  Go to California. Surf  up a storm. Finally, If waking up in the morning and doing whatever I want to do is deciding to become the richest person on earth nothing’s in my way. That spirit of reaching for the stars is what is so amazing about America. It’s the magical magnet that makes America so loved. The envy of the world.

America is a melting pot of races. I am a 3rd  Generation San Franciscan of French, Welch, Danish and Hispanic heritage. The mix of cultures elbow to elbow in the compact seven square miles of "The City" is  one of charms I loved most about growing up in San Francisco.  My classmates at George Washington High School were  Greek, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Hispanic plus a future Miss America / Actress Lee Meriwether and Johnny Mathis.  But most important inside the Pot is the "Secret Sauce". It is the mix of multi-cultures that makes America Great.  But now my high school is under attack by the City of San Francisco  who want to change the name of my high school (George Washington) and paint over a Mural as part of the Democrats Cancel Culture drive. Then, this summer I was shocked to find I am being put on the defensive because of my race. I immediately rejected the Democrats notion that “White Privilege” requires my obligation to support their movements that I oppose. They identified me not for who I am, or what I stand for --but as a white person, pulled me "out of the melting pot" and shamed me for my race. I am raising Holy Hell about this. Not going to stand for it. I challenge anyone to find a NATIVE San Franciscan of my  age (born 1935) and era including Jerry Brown  to paint me with "White Privilege"  and call me a Racist.  The truth is that I believe in the value of America's melting pot that I proudly am a part of. Since our founding, each generation of immigrants have made their way to a better life. And in turn made America Great. I love America and won't let them get away with their Identity politics and know I am not alone. 

I love the fight in Americans. With cities ablaze with protests this summer,  a couple armed themselves with weapons to protect their home from a  threatening Democrat mob that were terrorizing their St Louis neighborhood. No wonder the rioters were able to run roughshod through their  community unimpeded. The last time they had a Republican Mayor in St. Louis was 1945.  They were  lucky. The couples’ weapons were confiscated and arrested.  Over in strongly Democratic Milwaukee, where the homicide rate is up 150 percent from last year, Bernell Trammell an activist known for carrying handmade signs through the streets reading “Vote Donald Trump 2020, and posting them on his storefront, was gunned down on the sidewalk in broad daylight. The blame for the Summer of Chaos in most of the major cities is the Democrat Party. Seattle is 84% registered Democratic with 60 years of rule. Portland is 71% Democrat. Chicago had 14 candidates for Mayor. Not a Republican to contest Mayor Lightfoot. San Francisco is voting 85% Democrat. Their last Republican Mayor was in 1956. New York City is now voting 80% Democrat. 

My most infuriating accusation from Democrats is that to love America as a Republican I should work together with them to resolve our political differences. There is no compromising here because we have two insoluble ideologies. Marxism and our Constitution. Their aim is to overthrow our form of government. No secret. It’s on their Protest signs and  spoken in the House of Representatives. 

 "Revolution"

BEATLES
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're all doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait.
You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You'd better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be alright

A collapse of Law and Order and High Taxes are causing  those that have the wherewithal are leaving their homes in these American cities they onced loved for more accommodating states. This is a crying shame and should never happen in America. The Pilgrims left England and came to America because they were marginalized. Now Americans are leaving their homes seeking freedom in their own country. Big Picture: The MAGA Forces need to flip the Congress in 2022 and secure a Victory in 2024.

At the end of the day…

The thing I love most about America is that America inspired a young Polish girl to leave her country and chase her dreams by coming to America. I was lucky enough to marry her and that is definitely what I love most about America!
