Today, November 8, 2016, millions of Americans will complete the voting process and elect our Nation's 45th President. Regardless the outcome, we must pause and come to understand that this new leader of the 'free world' has perhaps the most daunting task on the domestic front that rivals any war years past and our worst depression era. There is ugly hatred blowing across our beautiful land from sea-to-shining sea.
The challenge ahead for this President-elect is trying to bring broken and depressed Americans together.
Unlike circumstances of war and depression, which normally galvanizes our people, todays' American climate has never seen our people more divided on so many issues. We are a country fractured in political ideologies, race, geography, education, social issues and religion. We have likely just witnessed the most disturbing, the most hateful and the most personal degrading Presidential campaign in American history. The rhetoric sunk to unimaginable lows with the most disgusting language and vulgar subject matter.
The greatest fear we Americans should share going forward is the lack of a willing spirit to come together. I can only do what I can only do. I will pray every day that our next President will find support and compromise moving forward.
May God bless our new President and may God bless and heal our nation.
