A Comment on the American Experiment Moving Forward

America is truly an exceptional country, not just an ideal but as an institutional framework for the Rule of Law, Human Rights and Liberties, and Freedom. The American Experiment is a remarkable course in itself since the inception of the country. The past of America is not clean by no means from the blood spilled, the practices of enslavement, the near extinction of native people, and the pursuit of a "Manifest Destiny" by any means to formulate an empire of liberty and freedom and a model for the Old World to venerate. The past four years was a revelation about one of the two Americas that remain present in this country. The next four years must become a blueprint and healing process to rehabilitate the American Experiment as a bright beacon and saving example of governance for, by, and with the people.
