America isn't Falling Apart. It's Being Reborn.

................................

Bridges have crumbled before. And they will crumble again.

America is at a crossroads. Not a death spiral.

We're not going to be the most powerful nation on earth forever.

Neither was England and look at them....now they have universal health care instead. Win some, lose some.

The world is changing in dramatic ways, all around us. We are in the midst....in the MIDST....of a global revolution on many levels. Not just social, but technological.

...........................

the REST:
