Just Sayin'


Cognitive Dissonance or Uncomfortable Moments of Silence



The study of politics and governments are an essential pretext to understanding your place and responsibilities as a citizen of the world. , not just these United States of America, this is Earth's current state of affairs.
I want to know why we as America's people must act as if we have no need to understand our place in this world and how to make a difference that is beneficial to all humanity.
Why these rights where written and whom did the 'founding fathers' have in mind when this document came together.
What is amazing about the Constitution of the United States is that out of the 4400 words, Pennsylvania is misspelled.
What is actually fascinating, of which I did not know, not until watching the movie " The Pursuit of Happyness," with Will Smith and his son, was the fact that we have the right to 'pursue' happiness, which is our right, just that Thomas Jefferson, who by the way did not sign the Constitution, specifically choose to use this word, pursue happiness.
Just a thought...
This is the oldest living document that other countries use to model their own concept of the constitution for their countries. Ours is a living document, which evolves as each new generation moves into its place in history. This particular document guarantees our rights to freedom of speech without reprisal of harm. Nevertheless, the dichotomy of this freedom is that we have no actual boundaries with our concept of freedom. We do go far with our liberties, just think about all of the people throughout history who have died, or been murdered, and or lynched in the name of " Freedom," or how nations are constructed under the guise of democracy or is it' 'demonocracy,' ( infowars.com). What is ironic in the English syntax is that the word 'America' is Arabic in its general structural make up. The root word being 'Amir', which means leader, to lead to be an example of good character and display the criteria of humanitarian tendency. 
So, where are we leading the rest of the world? Alternatively, where do we hope to go ourselves?
I read somewhere  that in order to lead others, one must be able to follow orders, or was it to be able to control others, one needs to be able to control yourself, but either way I trust you understand.
