What could posses anyone to do this without reason.
As the hard riding man reached a great expanse of river he didn't slow down,but plunged into the river still astride his horse.The man watching realized that the hard rider was half way across the river and in trouble.Strong currents were beginning to drag horse and rider downstream in an uncontrollable tumble of panic strickened horse and rider.hitting against rocks and swallowing massive amounts of dirty muddy river water.
The watching man raced to the rivers edge and tried to throw a rope to the now half drowned fool in the river.The horse was no where to be seen.The river had claim it for it's own.Finally in a last attempt before the river victim was to far down river, the ropes end was grabbed by the exhausted fool.after a long struggle to drag a full grown wet and cold man to safety,a question was asked.The watcher asked,"why did you ride so fast and not regard the rivers dangers?You had to know that this would happen and you would kill your magnificent steed.No one was chasing you. You could have returned to shore andcontinued to the bridge to cross on the same direction you traveled.That way is a known path and you wouldn't have to make only small adjustments to your journey.It may not have been perfect,but it was better than your predicament you now find yourself in.
After pausing for a long while the hard rider replied like this,"I wanted to see if I could actually change horses in the middle of the stream.The watcher looked out in the river in puzzlement as there was no horse in the stream to change to.The hard riders horse was no where to be seen either.The watcher asked,Where was the other horse you were to meet?The hard riding fools face frowned as he replied'"I was told by everyone that you shouldn't change horses midstream and I couldn't find anyone that would try it on their horse in this rivers swift current.So I decided to try it by my self".I was sure that I was better than anyone before me that tried.I have bragged of being able to change horses better than the last rider.
The watcher wished the hard,wet exhausted fool a farewell and left him to rest and dry till he could continue
across the bridge on the journey or return to his origin.The watcher realized that he had rescued a newly enlightened fool .Everyone with good judgement knows that you can't change horses in midstream.Particularly in a raging river.The watcher didn't need to prove it to himself as he had just witnessed a bragging fool prove it for him.
This election is a similar situation.We are headed in a direction that is far from perfect.It is part of a system that is called Democracy.It lends itself to helping all the citizens of the DEMOCRACY.It is a system designed to pull all people and resources into a team effort.It was formed a long time before any of us were a twinkle in our mothers eye.Many famous and silent thinkers have fought with words,fists,swords and rifle.They were hero's that believed in the equality of all people.We have a tendency to forget such things when the politicians begin to speak in doubletalk propaganda.The path we are on is an effort to build more freedom to help all people to pull each other out of a mess brought about by numerous administrations.WE are our brothers and sisters keeper.Presidents need people working with them to build safety nets in the systems created.This means that the Presidents that have had that co-operation in the past could do their jobs for all of us in this Republic/Democracy.We are suppose to Throw each other that is struggling in that river , a rope. we know that we do not change horses midstream at this point in time.We have a start to keep more folks from drowning in the raging depression of the rest of the worlds mud filled problems.
It is the choice of changing horses{Presidents}midstream,when there really isn't anyone waiting in that stream who is willing to take the reins and continue on the path.There is no turning back and restarting the ride We already have the bridge built to cross that raging river and reach the safety waiting on the other side of the elections.I believe this President needs to have the input from all of us living in this Democracy.It will take all
of our ideas and strengths to see our country out of this world economic river..WE THE PEOPLE have the power to change our country no matter who is president.That is what makes us great.
Don't want this law or that ruling???Get off you butt and change it!
Want to protect your Rights and Amendments,Study them and fight for them!
You believe in your right to do this and to do that?fight for those rights!Many have fought for your rights with their lives as their price to keep you free.Free to carry on for them.YOU! must be very special to have all those folks belive enough in your ideas to die for them....
You are a voice that needs to be heard.You have the same power when you vote your choice.Make your voice heard on Election day.Within you lies the power,to seize the hour and live your dream.
It only takes one determined voice to change the world.If you don't believe your world has changed or will change,Perhaps it's because you have not spoken with enough belief in your goals.....The journey of a thousand miles begins with only one step.
Vote and begin to make your voice heard in words that speak to the entire world.
Become the champion of your ideas and beliefs..
I hope your world is the one you will be happy in and that life is where you wished it would be before it was.:)

I have taken a short sabbatical from my blogging enjoyment these last few weeks.It seems that a Trojan/worm has devastated my beloved laptop.I am currently writing on a borrowed laptop that I bought for someone that was handicapped and could not afford one themselves.I guess it is true when they say that if you send out good deeds,them will return when you most need them.Passing it forward is the phrase.
The election was just to much of the collectors trying to collect from each other.
It was a daily task to remove the several hundred E-mails from election wannabe heros.one in particular with a parculiar lack of tact sent me a letter stating that I had not
donated to a cause my blogs contradict his accusations.I guess that I had,had enough of
the condescending bozos.So now the above blog is still a matter of guiding this administration into the future that will benefit all of us in the free world.The effects will be far reaching throughout the entire world.People that yearn for the freedom we cherish are watching us to learn how it is done.WE THE PEOPLE are the worlds only long lasting Democracy.Ours is a testbed laboratory for the rest of the Human Race.
If you wonder how you can fit into this development,reread the above till it inspires :)
AGAIN:RJP Keep the dreams of a free and happy life alive.
