Party politics is legalized treason

As a World War II vet, I find today’s politics a bit open loop to reality. It’s as if we have run America through a shredder and lost sight of the fact that we re one nation under God. We need American leaders for America. We don’t need politicized leaders who cater to a collection of special interests or that can be blackmailed to support a special interest. Selecting leaders is not a media game show or a street mob operation. It is a serious business.

Hopefully, this election will begin the process of eliminating political self-serving, self-interest leaders. To me, party politics is legalized treason.
