Amid the floundering economy, many American citizens seem to be none too keen with either of the choices for President. The headlines are all about "doom and gloom".
It could be worse. Have you seen what has been unfolding in Thailand? Political antagonism has boiled over into terrible violence. Their economy is completely falling apart. For a related article from the Washington Post, go to: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/10/09/AR2008100901242.html?hpid=moreheadlines.
So, when we begin to feel sorry for ourselves as a nation, we only need to look to Thailand to realize how lucky we are. We are lucky not because our woes are not as bad as Thailand's woes, but because we, as a nation, are in a position to help them. Hopefully, the leadership of our nation will offer assistance.
