People Aren’t Dumb, They Simply Want Peace

As the years pass, it seems as if people feel the need for internal peace and quiet. The days of being sharp as a whip, and caring whether you come in first seem so tiring when you get older. This must be the reason that older America seems to find it easier to go with the current flow, without questioning the integrity of the flow.
It’s sad. I’ve finally realized this though, and it’s giving me some sort of peace to understand that the capacity for intellectual curiosity does not necessarily mean a lack of intellect, as much as an atrophied brain muscle. That might not be so bad if “la la land” is what one is ultimately seeking.

The Birthers Must Be Right

It’s hard to imagine any group of people making the claim that President Obama was not born in the country for as long as the Birther group has been doing it, and not be correct.
There are a few things I don’t personally understand, but it is not my job, nor do I have the resources, to try and resolve anything. One thing that’s very difficult to understand is why no court has given any credibility to this claim. I mean, after all, 20% of people believe Pres. Obama is here illegally, and another 23% don’t know…how can this many people be wrong? The courts should be swayed because of the number of people who say it’s so. That’s only reasonable.
Another thing I don’t understand is why this belief seems to be limited to just one political party. But I might be wrong here. There might be equal numbers in all parties.
It also appears that some of the leaders of the birther movement have picked up a little extra cash for their efforts. Is it possible money is one of the reasons for this movement? I don’t know – just saying, just wondering.
Finally, since my father was born in Italy, I now wonder if I’m here legally.
