We the people. Are we taking care of America? In other words – are we taking care of ourselves, each other? Are we responsible for each other? It seems obvious that we don’t all like or agree with each other, and people have varying degrees of compassion and tolerance. But what are our civic duties as Americans? We care so much about our rights, our freedom – our individual beliefs and choices. We allow the media to focus on and editorialize the issues, derive our collective judgment of our leaders through polls and talk shows. The nature of this situation is that we believe what we already believed, and deem the truth to be that which comports with those beliefs, not knowing which facts from the spewing millions of  sources are indeed trustworthy. We are a nation of differences, protected by our Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights. If what we have in common is that we are Americans – what does that mean?
