Flip Flops, and I don't mean the kind you wear on your feet. But then again maybe we should?
Of late, we are being bombarded with each of the candidates calling the other a flip flopper? And sometimes they try to explain it away as their positions are maturing or evolving and being refined. Now I don't know about you, but I would have expected that any Candidate for President and even a Family of a Candidate for President of the United States of America would have a pretty refined position before they started to campaign for the office?
It's no different then putting together a business plan and having it reviewed by a good consulting team of financial planners, and business mentors in the end. It requires a better then average degree of experience and discernment to know Who, What, Why and how much one can expect to do to bring folks together to get a job done.
We are talking here after all about the "Business" of the United States of America, and it is serious business in that We The People are the ones that provide the Capital Assets to be of, by and for the People and their pursuit of the portion of the Declaration of Independence our forefathers had penned.

Preamble "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it,
It is my considered opinion, that we are closer today to a need to consider our Great Experiment in Democratic Republic with representation that has seeminly turned on us; needs to be rethought and maybe even abolished and replaced with a more "Responsive" form that includes more Common Folk, and less Political Careerists, folks that are Servants of the Common Good, and not merely living off it. Please my fellow countrymen and women consider study of the following link. http://www.cusdi.org/index.html
And understand well I am advocating a peaceful and orderly form of transition, if it can be done so. But the 200 plus years we have tried to make this work as intended, has only repeatedly shows us the way our Representatives have been reached and influenced by special interests, and have show such influence has done us great harm as we are experiencing today.
