A Democratic Dawn

Yesterday America made a choice: change. Change from the failed course we have been lead down by a failed President and his rubberstamp enablers of yesteryear.

While celebration is warranted, we should not let down our guard. There will be many challenges ahead for this newly elected Congress. It is always difficult to exercise the checks and balances enshrined in our Constitution. But as our Fore Fathers understood all too well, the need for such checks and balances is paramount. Never was this more true than in the case of this president, who governs as if by fiat, ignoring the will of the people from whom he is suppose to derive his power.

Will we ever regain some semblance of what were once were? Only time will tell. Thankfully the people have decided that the ones who lead us astray will no longer continue to do so. Accepting that you have a problem is the first step on the road recovery.

Yesterday, we started that down that road. How far we get is still up to us.

More from DK.
