Is the public REALLY ready to embrace change in our country?

Question

Never mind the war in Iraq, our economy, illegal immigration, the slow stripping of rights in some states, the fact that we endorse torture and the rampant welfare.

If we REALLY wanted to change this country and its system of doing things we would've done it already, but here we are. Yes, ideas float back and forth, but we put down others with bigotry instead of working to maintain a country from destruction that could destroy all of us.

We've also become gluttonous and too comfortable with ourselves and lost our guard at 9/11. We've become decadent, spoiled and fixed on ourselves that we've forgotten how to work with others but most importantly protect ourselves from internal and external threats.

I ask these: Are we scared? Scared to step out of our comforts and ideas?

Answer 1

I am only scared when i'm home because of our new approach to limited personal freedoms and these so called leaders who are poking holes in whatever they want to!The

  rest of the world is afraid of us we can destroy them at the whim of our current dictator(d**k cheyney)!!! and as for comfort your kidding "aren't you"! I  have an idea listen to the experts, they have the best ideas money can buy!!!!!

Answer 2

No average American is like a child

Answer 3

Absolutely.  The rest are being paid to say "no".

Don't be fooled.

Answer 4

There could be an introduction of The Human Right To Peace to The Bill Of Rights if this is not one of those ideas to float around. The idea of The Right  for Humanity to own The Planet as a right for humans in each nation could be a start.

The Right to conserve natural resources,protect the environment, to an unpolluted planet free of manmade Global Warming.

Answer 5

nope, people have lost their balls. no one wants to take a stand and try to make things right. change? all obama wants is the power to press his pro black agenda. we need change but until someone makes a stand, taht is not allready tied to the minority/special interest groups, one will not come.

Answer 6

Who gets to decide what is change?

Socialists and facist mottoes are not governance.

Answer 7

I guess I would like to hear what all you people think need changed, to see if we are listening to anti-government radicals or sensible people.

Answer 8

politicians have been campaigning on change for the last 100 years.  The only CHANGE is who is making the promise.

Answer 9
