7 November 2020 -- A Beautiful Philosophical Ideal

 Friends far and wide:

The American philosophical vision continues to live, of a land created for the People, where real people, the great unwashed instead of autocratic ruler/s or other decision makers, get to determine which values will govern their present, and their futures. That vision survived the test of this presidency.

But the job is not yet finished with the removal of this pathetic figure of a man. For the American vision to continue to thrive, the majority of Americans, those who voted in this election against the ugly non-philosophy of the last 4 years, must find ways to wrest control of their land from the hands of fanatical minorities, some of whom wish to transform America into a Christian theocracy with Old Testament moral values to be imposed upon All & Sundry, and some of whom wish to pump her wells dry for their own monetary gain. Such as these must be shown the door, or the great battle for the soul of America will have to be thought and fought over and over again, with the very real possibility that America loses that battle in the end. In which case she will simply take the place that waits for her upon the podium of all the other autocratic states in world history. 

As it is, tonight, America is intact. She continues to exist as a truly free nation for real and truly free people. Tonight, we must continue to stand shoulder to shoulder, as we did in this election to get rid of this tyrant, to fight the other fights that await us around the corner. There is a pandemic to beat down; our neighbors to help out; our lives to get back; our country, our states, our neighborhoods to reconstruct from the ruin of this pathetic man and his allies.

United we stand.
