The Vietnam era spawned the phrase: “America — Love it or Leave It,” and idiots have been saying that, in one form or another, ever since.

It’s possible, especially now, that there actually are people who hate America, and who stay because of some practical reason, e.g., their job or their medical team, but these folks are very in number.

If you look this up, you’ll see that it’s correct.  Eisenhower was a fierce advocate of the following:

  • Infrastructure, e.g., the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, creating the 41,000-mile Interstate Highway System to improve national defense and commerce
  • Social Programs, Social Security, minimum wage, the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
  • Fiscal Policy, lower taxes, a balanced budget, and reduced government regulation, aiming to limit federal intervention in local affairs
  • Foreign Policy, nuclear deterrence and relying on the CIA for covert operations
  • Civil Rights, desegregation of the military and the armed forces, support for the Brown v. Board of Education decision

Obviously, conspiracy theorists, at the direction of Newsmax and their peers, are convinced that there is a significant amount of voter fraud, but the fact is that there have been only a few dozen incidents of proven fraud out of the last one billion votes cast.

Yes, we could have an amendment could be proposed and passed into law that changes all of this, but until then, I’m going to support the U.S. Constitution, which has done right by the American people since its passage in 1789.

Yes, our atmosphere and our waterways will soon be seeing increasing concentrations of mercury, lead, cadmium, selenium, and arsenic, not to mention other neurotoxins like a wide array of radioactive isotopes, so that the Trump administration can placate billionaire donors.

But seriously, what are a few million agonizing deaths from these carcinogens compared with huge campaign donations?
