A Thought About That

     Movies are great entertainment. They work through their plots and sub plots; sometimes having no plot; keeping us glued to our seats till the credits start rolling. Most will have happy endings, some not; but what does it matter; it’s just a movie, right? Right.

     Well, we got some stuff in real life going on that is the essence of what great movies are made. Of course, I’m speaking of the political rumblings going on right now. But understand this; it’s not a movie. It’s real and it effects us all and not just a few folk on a movie screen. Some folk like to look at it as a matter of left vs right; conservative vs liberal; whatever vs whatever. You can call it what you like. It boils down to does any of these folk have us folk’s best interests at heart? Does any of these folk truly care about the good old US of A? Or do they care only for the fame, money, and power? You hear them talking about this and that, but too many times their talk don’t match their walk. And that’s on both sides of the fence. Even though this has the makings of a good movie, comprehend, this thang ain’t no movie. It’s the real deal. There won’t be any alternative ending. There won’t be any retakes. We have already been characters in this political real life drama already. Remember.

     We don’t need any more drama. We need the truth. We need justice. We need common sense. And we need a righteous stance, not just some stance that they think will get them elected. We truly need to be doing our homework and deciding with our votes who is the most qualified and honest person for the job of President of these United States. We must not base our choices on the surface junk they present to our eyes and ears. We must dig deep down to the soul of the person where the true essence of their motivations resides. We must tunnel our way to their hearts, for as the heart go, so goes the man or woman. We have to size up these folk and let them know we are not just pansies, but real people expecting real results. And after looking and thinking about what some of these folk have presented in their words and actions, I just don’t think they have demonstrated that they have the best interests of America in their hearts and will work to do justice to the American dream, the American hope, the American people, and American righteousness in general.

     Let us go to the polls prepared so when we look back on these times and happenings, a movie can be made that not only grips our attention but it will make us smile with pride knowing that we help to elect a person who stood for the good of all and not just a few.
