I was home watching a movie on Channel 5 on June 5th 1968 when Bobby fell to Sirhan, and ended the last Campaign. I knew Green Back dollars, and Blowin in the Wind, yes the Times were a Changin. America's innocence and good died that night. To feel America we have to come together in concerts and churches, sometimes in clubs. America's not the same, not as clean, not as good, we will never be innocent again. I miss you John. I miss America.

John Stewart was the songwriter DayDream Believer as well. He truly was a gentle, caring man who was only nostalgic for days gone by, and days that were not so violent and troubling. A nice memory by a truly humane being.

Criminals will always have guns. Keeping guns from honest people only makes the criminals safer. Hitler removed the right to own guns. That worked great, didn't it???

Soviet Russia redistributed the wealth. That worked great, didn't it???

Improved education would be a plus though.

You know how you can be safe again, America? By doing away with the right to bear, buy and sell arms for private citizens, by improving education and by redistibuting your wealth.

I can't believe after all the years I've loved John Stewart that I've never heard this song. It was like finding a lost masterpiece. This gives me that same warm feeling I felt when I stood on the grinder saluting our flag as I graduated from boot camp in December 1963. When word was announced at boot camp of John Kennedy's death, I for the first time saw grown men cry. "Oh, Mother Country, how I love you."

The same thing's goin down' in Sweden.

I wonder why we elect so many stupid people to office and then expect them to do the right thing, and then look the other way while they destroy every thing that our blood stained past did to buy our freedom. We are to afraid to get involved to throw the bums out of office or forbid-- impeach the bums for their foolish views on what is suppose to be a Free Nation and not a suppressed people by the atheist or bow down to Allah (Prince of Darkness).

I remember what I'd dream of America. The land of the brave, who could express any thought without any fear. A fairytale where you could work your life away and you could have a warm home, a beautyful wife and good kids and a dog, and freedom of speach, simple tasty McDonalds, no fear and no remorse, your freedom and your dreams, no drugs, just cheap beer, Lucky Strike, bubble gum, quiet nights, Route 66 and no interest for politics. How far away is America? Where is it?

As a whole our country has not realized our country is under attack either.

I consider myself truly blessed to have been able to grow up in the times he so eloquently refers to. I was in algebra class on Nov. 22, 1963.
