Politicians are using fear and hate as a means to gain power for their respective parties. Hate is not a solution to any of America’s problems, so perhaps our leaders should devise a better plan to address serious issues plaguing our country.
America deserves leaders who possess the talent to govern and achieve results without being divisive. We cannot move forward to address important issues when every proposal is met by politicians running to the podium to twist the truth and spin the facts. Solutions are not judged on their own merit but rather by the party who proposed them. The welfare of the American people has taken a back seat to partisan politics.
Although this song was written in 1967, it is very much a song for our times.
