There is only the right side (#1165)

When the truth is told, there is no other truth. What we are made to believe today is that there are two truths and one of them is better than the other. What we really have is two different visions for America and one of them is trying to make life better for all and the other is trying to make life even easier for a few. Now obviously, to the many, this should be simple enough to understand, however it is not. Manipulations and outright lies are misinforming a gullible electorate about what the truth is and many are not seeing through the confusion. Many do not want to for their own ill-held prejudices, fears and loyalties to a previous brand. All this manipulation and half-truth telling has done is to serve up a paradigm of mistrust with combative, illogical, argumentative warfare. The truth can stand on it's own whereas the non-truth has to deceive and confuse in order to overcome truth. All we need to do is judge everything by our own standards of compassion and curiosity to know what the path toward truth is. Everything else is the whirligig of manipulation. That we are still talking about consensus around the foundational beginning of our society over two hundred years ago is indicative of the forces who would want to break our form of government into a form more conducive to elements that are bereft of democratic principles. Our country was fought for and was founded upon democracy and the right of freedom and liberty to be individual rights. We also have been gifted with a will to fulfill our own destinies, through a community of acknowledged processes. To take this dynamic and destroy the undercurrent of it's effectiveness is tantamount to cancer eating at it's host until the host and the cancer survive no more.
