This is America. The day we all give up hope is the day our country no longer exists. I too have hope in the people. (not so much in politicians - would prefer those roles filled by non-career-politicians. Just regular, very smart people with ethics) As our country communicates more, learns more, understands more, then we can make more distributed decisions. That is how I see our future changing for the better. Never lose freedom, independence, and the basic human rights.
