Nobel Peace Prize 2025

 After 100 plus years of discrimination, this country turned a racial corner electing a black POTUS. The left wants to punish the white's for centuries of systemic discrimination. So they elected Obama. I wasn't a fan of his either. He was even less qualified than Trump or Biden, and was not a leader in any stretch of the imagination. Obama got elected because he was Black, no other reason, he certainly wasn't qualified. That being said, him being elected also shows the left that this country, while not totally devoid of racism, has come a long way in 1560 years. From enslaving black citizens, to electing them to lead. That while we started out as slaveholders, we changed and become the beacon on the hill that we were destined to be. The racial bigotry notwithstanding. Every bad thing that this country has done we have done better, whether it be slavery, and the 14th Amendment, or the genocide and the Dawes Act. We are not a perfect country, but over the 250 years of our existence we have risen above our foibles, and become a better country. One everyone in the world envies, and wants to live in. That is the measure of our enduring Republic, and that is its legacy, the good and the bad. That is what we need to teach our children. That is what I was taught. White washing and victimizing the past does no one any good. It fosters dissent, erodes trust in each other, and makes for a divided country. Which is where we are now. We the people have done better, it is our leaders that have failed us. The last two politicians who have come close to statesmen in the last 50 years have both been Republican; Gerald Ford, and Mike Pence. I was too young to vote or not for Ford, but I would have voted for him, but not Pence. Didn't mean that I didn't have respect for Pence, just didn't think he was strong willed. That was until I saw what he did on J6. That folks was a statesman in action. The likes we may never see again. 10 elected Presidents in the last 50 years, and two have been decent. We need better choices. Therein lies the solution. Better choices.
