VOTE: Divided we fall

In 1992 we lived in Glendale, Calif., when Rodney King said “Can’t we all just get along?”

As a board member of the DART Group that attempts to unify rather than divide our citizens I have to say VOTE. Trump has made this nation into the most divided era since Abolition. It is NOT a Golden Age as prices double and jobs evaporate for our youth and elderly alike. 

Race, language, religions, education, media, females, sexuality have all become targets to attack and tear apart our nation. This formerly great Nation is watching Rome burn and clapping for its demise. 

As long as we never reach across the aisle to achieve apolitical solutions we are a failed society. The fortunate folks who travel see that joy exists elsewhere because people realize you only live so long and societies only survive if you reach an equilibrium. We are all unique and that is worth celebrating.

It is time to stop the hate.
