Letter to the Editor: Think hard before voting in 2024

Who will be America’s next president in 2024?

I hate discussing religion, or politics, especially in this day and age, when there is so much division in America, and who’s the blame? We all have our opinions on anything going on in the world, and I guess that makes us human, and free spirited from being Americanized. However, if we judged everybody for something they said, and it was even years ago, nobody would meet our standards to hold the most powerful political office in America. Just like I don’t, and shouldn’t judge a person by their color, religion, nationality, sexual preference, or creed, I don’t judge someone on the way they might have acted or said something off color years ago. I judge a person on merit, and the good job they do, especially when it affects me, and right now America needs someone leading America in the right direction. “We the people” who elect the president, should only consider the job they are doing, and how it will help the future of America.

I fought 13 months in the jungles of Vietnam to keep communism from coming to America, and now it is here in America, and trying hard to sway the people toward thinking it would be good for America, and this is definitely not true. I’ve seen firsthand what communism will do to a country and their people, and I don’t want it here in this country I love.

“God does not pick perfect people, but He picks perfect people for the job.” God has blessed America in being the greatest country in world history, and communism will eliminate God from America, and our freedoms and liberties will be gone forever, and “we the people” will all be under complete government control. Think hard about this, when you are deciding who you would want to lead America into the future.
