After the past months political shenanigans, my outlook on the economy and the fear of over taxation scares me. Barack Obama is not the savior that will unite our country. America did not suddenly turn GREAT on 04NOV2008 when most of the US population lost their minds. America turned her greatness when the 56 men signed a document with a quill dipped in black ink 232 years ago. The day after the signing, men with differing opinions, have been trying to change the ideas of our founding fathers ever since. Thank god we have scholars and institutions that are continuing to plow through the BS, and teaching freedom and liberty. A wise man once said: It is not your job to finish the task, but remember, you are not free to stop trying. I suppose that it is healthy for folks to disagree. If everyone agreed, there would be no need for a fine college like Hillsdale!
