Too big to jail bankers' Great Recession, dehydrating on Detroit's Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr and his Detroit Water and Sewerage Department's 2013 water shut offs and intentional coal ash 2014 North Carolina water contamination, diminished American readiness!

It is ludicrous to expect perfect candidates, tolerate huh responses to voting or permit elected officials to renege on our supremely chiseled promise: Equal Justice Under Law.

As a people, we've readily accepted the superficial, over in-depth investigation -- mesmerized by the dramatic effect of standups in hurricane winds and floods, over advocating for our interior - insisting on FEMA, environmental and climate reality check.

Are we ready to let go of denial and stop accepting government propaganda as patriotism, religious bias as family values and corporate marketing as truth -- proclaiming instead: there is more patriotism, hope and heroic honesty and definition of America, in athletes and first responders, taking a knee -- than trumpeting we're ready, willing and able, without each other.
