A New Beginning

For the last few years nothing has been more obvious than the fact that Congress and the American government is not working. The gridlock is preventing any action on all major issues. Except for the few folks who believe that the best thing government can do is nothing, the rest of us believe that the Congress should work to enact the things that the constitution says they are supposed to do: “establish Justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty” to all.

The frustration in the country was clearly tapped into by both the campaign of Bernie Sanders and the campaign of Donald Trump. Both of the major parties have become so bought and dependent on big money that it appears to many that they have lost their moral compass, abandoned their principles, and have sold out to their special interest.
