I do. We, as a country, have been pretty special over the years. My hope is that the sane and responsible remain strong in the face of the lies and propaganda. We seem to be inundated with it.
Although I tend to be a pessimist (or am I a realist), I'm seeing at least some signs of those in long sleeps finally waking up. At our 4th of July parade, instead of boos the Democrats were greeted with cheers. Many Dems showed up to walk beside our float and hold our signs talking about true freedom and our values. The local activist group I lead has been inundated with new members and at least some of them actually want to do something. This is new. If we keep this up, maybe Beto could win! So I agree, Ramona. We're not done yet.
