Does America really need the Republican Party to teach it HOW to be Americans?

That seems to be the GOP's lot in life, right?

How necessary is this and are they the right people to do that?

Alternatives, anyone?

Yet they seem hell-bent on dismantling the country we call America.

They say we are an opportunity-based country. But I call bullshit.

They won't be happy until the 13th amendment is overturned.
