Media's failure to give equal coverage to the wisdom of Viola Davis to that of Meryl Streep is testimony to how far we have yet to go to embrace Stronger Together, but Donald Trump proves how far we can distort our Captain Fantastic within .

The next U. S. president thinks there's power in his twitter fingertips. We need make it his Achille's heel -- for one who so craves adoration will blow away like yesterday's dust, as soon as we deny him our freedom.

There are far greater traitors on Wall Street and in the halls of Congress than Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden. This revealing duo is more akin to the patriotism of Alice Paul, President and Jackie Kennedy, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Bobby Kennedy, Rosa Parks, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Daniella Gibbs Leger and Barack Obama -- than anti-American Birthers and Russian hackers.

Truth is, patriotism is Americans participating in weekly protest events, because it's not government of, by and for the people, until We the People show up -- This is Us.
