Now, now, Roland, that was a rather harsh depiction of the country I love, and proud to be a citizen of. The past 4 years have been difficult, but the buffoon in charge, while worthy of all the labels attached to him, had a method to his madness, and despite his buffoonery has significant achievements to his name. The list of those achievements, I will leave for another time. For now, we Americans revel in the triumph of our democracy and look forward to the new inclusive leadership, and the USA retaking its pre-eminent leadership position in the free world. Now it is time for our nation to heal. Trump touched a nerve among the Caucasian Americans who have slowly seen the decline in their proportion in the American population, and longed for a return to white leadership. This was the last gasp attempt to re-assert their lordship. Time and tide wait for no man, as the demographics of the USA has taken an inexorable change. The election of Barack Obama was the precursor of things to come. The election of Donald Trump was a backlash to the black Presidency. With the election of Biden, the ship of democracy has righted itself, with a white President and a multi-racial female vice-president. Green shoots which in time will see a sea change in the U.S. political environment.Changes in the American corporate world have led the way, with Indian CEOs in some of the largest corporations in the USA.Who could have predicted such an occurrence ? I look forward to Latinos and African Americans also taking on more leadership roles. The American Supreme Court is still lopsidedly Anglo-saxon, but his too will change in time. Political institutions like the Congress of the United States need to reflect the demographics of the country. This will happen. Roland, I am still gung-ho on my country - the USA, Land of the free and home of the brave. This is the country that people from all over the world still aspire to emigrate to, and to seek higher education. Case in point is that the daughter of the President of China is studying at Harvard. The resurgence of China began with the visit of President Nixon to China in the 1970s. He was invited by the ne pragmatic leadership in China after the demise of Mao Tsetung., As a result of his visit thousands of China's brightest students were invited to study in elite American Universities, and returned to China to pass on their new found knowledge. This is what led to the resurgence of China, and what America means to the world. A beacon of hope. I end this with " God Bless America, Land that I love, Stand Beside Her and Guide her...…." The future is bright with America's new leadership.
