Dear POTUS/Q: People vs. Politicians, Public Figures, et al.
I love and respect your discipline, timing and love for the/we the American people where ever we are in the world.
As one who has traveled and lived in many areas of US, CAN and MEX, I can tell you the people are not the governments of these countries. WE are the people that make the world go round.
We create, we teach, we share and we learn. YOU have woke in us, through your acknowledgment of our simple being, a sense of country, home, family and world. We are now learning out of curiosity, duty and need that the world we saw disappearing over the decades past is filled with hope.
YOU did that. You are uniting us. Teaching us to question and share…and help each other.
I have lived in Canada and Mexico. I consider myself a “North American”. That does not mean no borders. Contrary, I appreciate the differences in culture.
My only request…When addressing a country's politics, address the politicians, for the PEOPLE are like Americans…they want a good life that reflects the effort they make and they want to share the grace of their bountiful spirit.
…but, make the Politicians who abuse the People of the world pay their dues.
Words matter.
