Why do people act like choosing a president is like rooting for a sports team? They wear the team mascot on their clothing and they root for the other side to lose.
Why are there public schools in America with less? Shouldn’t ALL public education be equal? Taxpayers should not vote on how much to give schools and teachers in their community.
Why do people only see black and white when this world is made of infinite shades of grey (not that kind! Ha)? Every problem has many options for solutions.
Why do we go to church but still hear God’s words of love and acceptance so differently? Hypocrisy reigns.
When will he ever really go away? Not November 6th. That I can guarantee.
How long can we keep children safe? Keep them as children? Give them a childhood without fear? Never.
Who will accept defeat gracefully?
Why do we blame others so easily? No self evaluation, a big ego, and pride seem to rule.
How much money is enough? Don’t we want everyone to have enough?
Why would anyone think a group of people are stealing pets to eat them?
And, why would anyone believe women have ‘abortions’ after birth?!?! It’s impossible. Or that women WANT to have an abortion in the final trimester?

How did it happen that we seem to no longer encourage creativity, and change, and new technology? Fear to try something new never makes us better.
Why do people want to Make America Great Again? Going back in time is not rosy. We had some really bad events and bad people back then.
Why do churches stay so quiet?
Why is the word ‘freedom’ used as a fighting word? And what happened to the word ‘patriot’?
Why can’t we put Congressional time limits on ballots?
Why do I still hear it’s mentally sick people not the guns? Even ‘sane’ people shoot people. We have too many guns.
Do people vote selfishly or do they think about what might be good for their neighbor? Hmmm. Happy neighbor makes a happy community, and that can spread to make a happy world.
My biggest questions: how can I stay hopeful? When will all people want a strong, working government for everyone? Can we see the big picture for our country?? Will all the differences turn to violence? Can it get even worse?
Who will vote?
