Dear Editor,
America has come to a place where we have dug ourselves into a deep hole and it is going to take some hard work to get us from where we are to where we ought to be. In order to do that we are going to have to make reality our friend. I personally believe that we can not only get through this, but we could come out stronger in the end. But to do it, we, as a nation, are going to have to collectively have to give up being stupid and embrace being smart.
I look around at what is going on in this country and I think that we can all agree that this is simply not acceptable. We are going to have to decide that we as a nation can do better than this. We are the world that we make for ourselves and we need to do a better job than this. We as a nation are going to have to positively embrace clear thinking and intelligence.
We are going to have to come up with a plan, a course of action, derived as a solution based in reality. We need to make reality our friend rather than our enemy.
