Archimedes is noted as having said, and I paraphrase – Give me a place to stand, a lever long enough, and a fulcrum on which to put it, I will move the world. 
America’s current standing, not the least of which being its towering debt, deference to its enemies, and contempt for its friends, we clearly are in need of being tilted on our axis, and Archimedes never so much as had an idea of just how much his claim is wont of being proven. For, without a shift in its current direction, America’s legacy will come to reside among all those that lay as grist under the grind of man’s innately primal need to suckle to the point of destroying.
From its inception as the world’s “last best hope,” America has stood as a towering beacon for all those seeking a way out of the darkest of human animations. Its abundance and its will to share of its gains 
have become tenets of the best we earthlings have managed to accomplish, which is why the United States remains indexed ahead of the “A’s” in other sovereign Rolodexes. For, when the excrement hits that fan and one’s enemies’ flags appear on the horizon at midnight, it is America who answers the fabled 3am call. And prayers go out for finding the Stars & Stripes on the opposing horizon, knowing that it is only America who is willing to give so much of its irreplaceable blood and treasure for so little in return. Yet, with all that it has to offer, has offered, and has sacrificed, America continues to be reviled, even by beneficiaries of what is truly “made in America” – the promise of Liberty.
Though disdain for America has become a global rally for its enemies, contempt for our standards of living and ways of life have recently spawn operatives bearing American birth certificates – those claiming love for the country, while diligently striving to bring about an end to what has been its global comparative advantage – free enterprise capitalism. And none have sought and continued seeking this destructive transformation more than the Liberal Left and its current political chieftain – Barack Obama.
Some thinkers and pundits oblige him and Liberals the benefit of the doubt by saying that they honestly don’t believe that Obama’s desire and goal is America’s destruction. 
They ask how he actually could want to see America destroyed. Well, the claim is not that Obama wishes to see America left in a heap of ashes; however, if America is and has been what is characterized, above, and Obama wishes the see these tenets obliterated to the point of America coming to bear other characterizations, then the America we know must be destroyed, if it is to be “fundamentally transformed.” And, given the opportunity of a second term, with no need to appease in order to win a Term 3, Obama will trample as much of America’s Rule of Law as he can, in order to bring about its destruction. For Obama believes that America is what it is as a result of an Imperialist and having taken more than its “fair share.” 
And, given that his myrmidonic constituents are clueless of the transformational impact, unless the GOP can field a champion who is capable of unseating this El Cid of the Left, this Muslim in Christian disguise will eventually fly the Oval Office Desk into the broadside of American Liberty and crash its towering resolve into something resembling the rest of the world – egalitarian mediocrity.
As we approach November 2012, it is critical that Republicans get a clue and cease being as brainless as they have been, when it comes to defeating Liberals in the polls. In their hands, they hold the leverage of language to be placed on the fulcrum of the voting population. And America legacy and center left principles represent no better place to stand, as they attempt to tilt us from self-destruction. “Conservatism,” as well as its other expressions, may well reside at the heart of America’s character. And America may well lean “right of center.” However, the mere fact that most voters revile being labeled Republican and “conservative” is so easily, consistently, and predictably demagogued as being a proxy for racism, why would Republicans continue to shout verbiage that only triggers the absolute and diametric opposite of intent? 
Why, other than out of political hubris? Is this not of what Republicans are accused: resistant, contrary, and unwilling to bend? Have Republicans become so clueless as to not recognize that no matter how loud one amy scream in English to a Frenchman, the only thing that will be accomplished is validation of one being the “ugly American”…in this case, the Ugly-Rich-White-Man-Is-Out-Of-Touch-Republican.
While the GOP plans its visit to the zoo, a herd of elephants stand in America’s Living Rooms. Will they be seen in time to save America from Barack Obama – the one-eyed man, who continues to be crowned King in the Land of the Blind? Time to see and be seen.
