@engineer,
Great article with some equally great comments from readers. Right-wing radicals and wealthy corporate tycoons have had an unhealthy strangle-hold on the GOP for many years and have caused this nation to fall into the gutter. They work arduously to impose their hypocrisy, bigotry, greed, and small-mindedness on all the people in this nation through the operation of our laws. They are divisive and hateful. They fail to understand the words that they pledge to the flag:
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice
for all."
Tomorrow, at the polls, we the people need to unite in a common goal, take back our country, and restore our national integrity! Obama/Biden offer this country hope for unity, prosperity, and liberty and justice for all. In fact, they offer hope to the whole world that common sense will finally prevail and that the USA will once again become a respectable leader among nations.
