Hopefully, this site will remain a positive place to sit and drink your coffee and share your thoughts.akanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09851017250072315222noreply@blogger.comBlogger11100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425484916595486386.post-42567856471866988442007-03-11T12:31:00.000-07:002007-03-11T12:40:59.558-07:00Okay, here's my problem. I am searching for a bit of humanism in America. Read the newspaper this morning and became so upset that I made this blog site so I could say why. Many American Indians are not getting health care because they are not, according to our government, "properly" documented. Apparently, you must prove without doubt that you are a native American from a documented and approved tribe. Sheesh. I can't even prove I am not an illegal alien here in Arizona. I was born in California; grandparents came from England about 1914; mother born in Utah, but my birth certificate is lost and it takes time to get a duplicate from California records... so the local DMV said "NO." Yet, I am what I am. <br /><br />So, how do we get to some of these decisions as a country? How can we justify them? Remember our Supreme Court? Does anyone out there know how we came up with the phrase and concept "Manifest Destiny"? <br /><br />I'm unhappy about the "small-heartedness" of today's ruling classes.... hmmm... Any ideas?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8425484916595486386-4256785647186698844?l=roses-in-december.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>akanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09851017250072315222noreply@blogger.com0
