Presidents who are the Pride of American Political Conservatives.

Toledo, Ohio. Lucas County. Adam Roland Hansen.

Toledo, Ohio is very fortunate to have Adam Roland Hansen as its native son. Indeed, both the City of Toledo, Ohio and the entire Lucas County region could really move forward if the local governmental entities would cash in on all the talents that Adam Roland Hansen has to offer.

It was 45 years ago today, back on July 31, 1973, when I first met Adam face to face. In my humble opinion, I think Adam Roland Hansen is the greatest!

I have written often about Adam Roland Hansen on my other blog, Roland's Ramblings.

Some folks may say I am prejudiced in favor of Adam; but, I say I am just the proud father of a very accomplished, talented, intelligent, and wonderful man. Adam is a real, honest, decent human being. More people should emulate him. The world would be a far better place for it.

In closing, I want to give a shout out to my son, Adam Roland Hansen, of whom I could not be more proud:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADAM!

Toledo, Ohio. Roland Louis Hansen. The Fool on the Hill.

Ya know what? I feel like I am The Fool On The Hill.

What has happenened to America?

There was a time when political discourse in the United States of America was civil. While rancorous at times, political disagreements were, for the most part, expressed in a mutually respectful manner.

Nowadays, we have a name-calling occupant in the Executive Office of The White House who disparages, mocks, and belittles people, regularly and consistently lies to the American public citing all unfavorable reports of him as fake news, personally attacks in an extremely vicious manner anyone and everyone who dares to disagree with him, -- and more. There seems to be no standard of cordiality, civility, honesty, and truthfulness for this disgrace of an American. And yet, he is the role-model being vigorously and passionately promoted by many Americans. Is this the type of person Americans want as a role model for our children? Is this truly what we want our children to emulate?

Take a time trip back in American history to July 4, 1957.

"On July 4, 1957, at approximately 9:05 a.m., a voice beamed out of transistor radios across New York City. The speaker — a young senator with a Boston accent — began reading the Declaration of Independence.It was John F. Kennedy."

A Country Divided - The United States of America

I have not seen our country as divided, as polarized, as it is today since the Viet Nam era. Indeed, I think the present division in America today is far worse with hatred being spewed forth ftom the current occupant in the White House against other Americans.

Discourse at the highest level of our American National Government has turned American against American, even worse than it did during the Viet Nam Era or the American Civil War itself!

Recently, a person with whom I am acquainted addressed an interesting question to me via an internet social media site in regards to civil (political) discussion in the United States of America. The following is the response I gave the person on that social media site:

"I will try to answer your specific question of "What has happened to civil discussions?" to the best of my abillity.
In my humble opinion, civil discussion in America has diminished greatly since the vocal political conservative minority captured the White House.
While the majority of American voters actually voted for someone other than the current occupant, the current Oval Office occupant received the majority of the vote from the 'electors' in the Electoral College.
The bottom line was the result that the vocal political conservative minority successfully moved America into an abyss where all rules of civility have been cast aside; and, the United States of America is now led by a person who espouses intolerance and hatred.
The leader of the vocal political conservative minority is The Great Divider, Donald J. Trump, who regularly and consistently belittles Arabs, Mexicans, Muslims, persons of color, members of the Press, athletes who exercise freedom of speech, the elected leaders of our country's European allies, political rivals, Democrats in general, and any person who disagrees with him."

Is Civil War brewing in the United States of America?

Politics in the United States of America: 
The nastiest I have ever experienced in my seven decades of life, thanks to Donald John Trump and his political conservative supporters who advocate hate and intolerance.

Take a look-see and read two articles from The Washington Post:

Politics, The latest sign of political divide: Shaming and shunning public officials, Mary Jordan, June 24 at 7:54 PM
The Fix - Analysis, Maxine Waters shows why the Sarah Huckabee Sanders-Red Hen story is extremely important, Aaron Blake, June 25 at 11:49 AM

And, from CNN, take a look at:

Politics. Maxine Waters encourages supporters to harass Trump administration officials, Jamie Ehrlich, CNN, Updated 2:02 PM ET, Mon June 25, 2018

Donald J. Trump is The Great Divider. According to Trump and his die-hard Supporters, all facts are fake. Trump and his politically conservative adherents live in an alternative universe that has an alternative reality consisting of alternative facts. Both 'The Twilight Zone' and 'Sliders' are reflective of their type of reality.

Today, the United States of America has The Trumpster who gets his jollies putting people in his Hate Dumpster. Instead of making America great again, Trump is tearing America apart again!
