What Ever Happened To Honesty And Integrity?

It seems as though honesty and integrity have all but disappeared in American politics.  If we are to have ANY hope of RESTORING America to the Constitutional Representative Republic envisioned by our founders, we NEED to REMOVE ANY politician who has EVER avoided giving direct answers on where they stand on the issues or has ever “hedged” or “flip-flopped” on any issue that involves America’s BASIC PRINCIPLES or RIGHTS.

It is NO LONGER ENOUGH to simply take their word for it that they “…(I) wouldn’t lie to you…” because we have all been lied to too often and for too long!

We need to find a way to dig into the backgrounds of ALL candidates for ANY office to see if their LIFE accurately reflects their words.  We need to rely on DEEDS not WORDS.  We cannot even count on our candidates being “endorsed” by people or organizations that we have thought we could trust in the past.  Maybe we should find a way to hire PRIVATE INVESTIGATORS to research them all.  The only problem with that is, CAN WE TRUST THE INVESTIGATORS to NOT be BIASED?

I am not sure what the ultimate answer to this conundrum will turn out to be, but, it is DEFINITELY a conversation that ALL AMERICANS NEED TO HAVE!

If not us, who?  If not now, when?
