On July 14, 1933, Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Party officially declared itself the only political party in Germany and outlawed the formation of any other parties. Hitler had already become Chancellor of Germany and the Reichstag building, home of the German parliament, had burned. Everyone in the world should have known that something very terrible was evolving.
Throughout America’s history we have had many different political parties that have provided our nation with a wide range of opinion. From the Federalists and Anti-Federalist to today’s Democratic and Republican parties that variation of opinion has made our country safe and strong.
Despite our differences the nation has evolved. Founders of this country could not foresee the 21st century any more than we can know the future of our world even 50 years from now.
Our differences of opinion make us a stronger nation. A friend who says he won’t vote in the next election is incorrect in that decision. It is our participation that makes this country strong. Blogging is our 21st century way of making this country a real democracy.
