Racist America

We hear so much about racist America. I should say the United States of America. Often I incorrectly just state America when in fact I mean the USA.  Our forefathers were indeed old White Men that gathered together to form this great country of ours. Some of them were, in fact, slave owners at the time.  No one denies that fact that I know of. What I think is amazing is these imperfect men sought a perfect God for direction and this great country that they started abolished slavery less than 100 years later.  Minorities were given the right to vote in under 100 years, and it did seem to take a little longer but women also were given the right to vote. This started from imperfect White Men that sought a perfect God. Ben Franklin considered to be one of the least religious of this group of men suggested they seek help from God and they did. I think it was wisdom that although they believe in God and looking to God for direction was very important, they did not name an official religion. When you look at the churches we have today, they are somewhat different than the churches of their day.  These men as imperfect as they were, gave us the best and least racist government on the face of the earth to this date. We have gotten better and even though there were struggles into the 1960s and even today, we have evolved to where we had our first Black President in a predominately White nation. Although many of us did not agree with his politics, I think we can be proud of the freedoms we have that allowed this to happen. Any given Presidency there are almost 50% of the population don't agree with the sitting President. Someone once stated we are the worst form of government, except for all other forms of government. I believe we are the least racist country on earth. I believe the proof of that is the people that keep coming to our nation not only legally but even try to get here illegally. We still are the greatest nation on earth. We have the most freedoms of any nation on earth. I dare these citizens that pour water on our police to try and disrespect police anywhere else in the world to that degree and see what happens.  If we are so racist, why do Blacks still come to our shores in greater numbers than those that came against their will during slavery? America is actually the least racist white majority country on the face of the earth. We should celebrate our accomplishments. Are we perfect? As long as there are humans, there will be evil. Evil comes naturally, we have to be taught to be good.  We still have imperfect people leading us, we always will. It doesn't matter what your politics, we are an imperfect people and will be outside of Christ and eternity. We need to stop and look where we came from and celebrate the freedoms we do have.  We are not perfect.  This country was designed for a good moral believing people that believed in a God.  A God that oversees the affairs of men. It was started by imperfect men, is still lead by imperfect men and women, but because of God's oversight is the greatest government on the face of this earth.  God bless, LVZ.
Look up the 14, 15 and 19 Amendments.
