When discourse has turned to discord ...

Among the many things that I do not understand is how the current political climate developed! I am sure that when the Founding Father’s laid the foundation for this great nation this is far from what they had in mind …

History recounts a the events surrounding the drafting of The Declaration of Independence as far from a fast first draft that did the trick The accounts tell us that there were several drafts that took a significant amount of time and discourse. While it might be easy to imagine a fairytale scenario in which everyone quickly agreed and shared a spirit and song, that is far from the reality. The truth is, the end result was more important than personal gain and ego … Much different than today!

Unfortunately, in today’s political climate, discourse had turned to discord!
