We seem to have lost the feeling of being a united nation. I plan to send a postcard each day to our new President sharing what drives me through my days, what I want for this country, and what I want our nation to stand for.

Freedom of speech defines us...
In thinking about this postcard, I might have to take a step backward. Freedom of speech is a defining example of our democracy. Nothing trumps (sorry, I couldn't resist) the right to free speech. But, the less free press we give people who espouse hatred and bigotry, the quieter their voices will become. They may not go away, but they will not get rewarded with headlines.
