Dear loyal readers--
As you may have noticed I've been rather hard on the Democrat party this past few blog posts. Many people have commented to me "You're not moderate Chuck, you're far right". While I dispute that, I have to admit my opinion of the Democrat party could not get any lower and my opinion of the Republican party is - at this point in history- that they are our only hope to bring power back to the people. I always think about George Washington's disdain for the idea of political parties- and I think he was right- however the horse is out of the barn, and it's all we have to work with at this point. I began this blog back in 2008 with the intention of being a moderate political commentator- A voice for Independents. The years have passed and I've observed the federal government get worse and worse, larger and larger, more and more intrusive. The people are no longer treated as the sovereign. Even though the population is more and more Independent I can see that there really is no hope for the Independents to gain power and drive the country in a new direction. They have no leader. You can't have a movement without a strong leader. The Republicans have a leader - Donald Trump- who seems to have intentions of removing the power away from Mad King George (my term for the ruling elites of our society- Academia, Corporate Media, Hollywood, Big Food, Big Pharma, etc....) My highest hope is for a new Convention of States to draw power back to the states through the Constitution. This movement is known as the Convention of States Movement. I don't see any other path to firmly re-establishing the people as the sovereign of our country. Many in Trump's cabinet and his Vice President- JD Vance- support the COS movement. I see no reason to pretend I'm "in the middle" as the general population defines it. I still feel my philosophy is to see both sides in any situation, however, I do not see anything positive regarding the Democrat party today. I see them as unjust and an enemy of the American people. They are friends to whoever brings them more votes and power. That is not a group of people interested in justice. This is a group of people who are totally "for sale". As a consequence of this, I can no longer write a blog entitled "Marshall in the Middle" in regards to the two main American political parties. It is officially a misnomer. As of the New Year, 2025- this blog will be titled "An American Voice". Same internet address, different title.
Thank you for reading, and God Bless America
