We're too trusting, reader contends

Letter to the Editor,

I read this in the spring issue of Range Magazine:

The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting an inexperienced man like him with the presidency.

It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man as their president.

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America.

Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.

The Republic can survive a Barack Obama. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.

From the newspaper Prager Zeitung, Czech Republic, April 28, 2010:

I think the Czechs know a thing or two about communism!

I would like to take this time and thank Bill Payne for his hit-the-nail-on-the-head letters.

I wouldn’t know Bill if I saw him on the street. But I do know this, I know a patriot when I read his words.

This letter is dedicated to an American patriot – Andrew Breitbart.
