Time for something new

As I look at the way our two political parties have evolved over the past several years, I have become disenchanted with both. We have reached a point where the democratic party is more fiscally conservative than the republican party. Yet the republican party still maintains the moral right (both meanings intended).
We need a new party that will continue to embrace the moral issues which are still precious to a majority of Americans, and will be as fiscally conservative as all Americans deserve. This election, as much as any before, has served to highlight our need as a nation to free ourselves from economic entanglements with any other nation - or group of nations. We need another revolution. We need to free ourselves from the economic tyranny we have created for ourselves.
It is time - to be energy independent.
It is time - to be fiscally independent.
It is time - to lead the world again in research, development, and manufacturing; as well as invention.
It is time - to keep jobs here at home.

We once were all these things.........
Then we lost our vision; and "where there is no vision, the people perish."

Please - share your ideas about how we declare our fiscal independence. Be specific.
We are Americans. We can do this.
I believe in you!

  2. Great idea Dad. And welcome to the blogging world. :)
    The political issues I feel most strongly about are illegal immigration and abortion, but I completely agree we need to fix things economically by becoming more independent. I will try to think of some specific ideas that can be done by individuals to help these problems.
