Hello Free Press,

As you say, you may have become older, but when I look through your site, you seem to be yesterday's hippies who, though older, have not grown up. Of course, you may also be the children of hippies. That too is possible.

America is a centrist country. Centrist Left is fine, Centrist Right is fine, but we are a centrist country, not a far left progressive or Socialist one. You people seemed to come out of the woodwork with the election of President Obama and I can't help but wonder why. Still, you are a fringe, a tiny part of our Republic. Of course, it's a free society so you are more than welcome. I just hope you don't manage to do too much harm before you fade away once again.

Of course I do not support Mr. Obama. I do not trust his intentions for our country. In my opinion, he ran as a centrist and then turned sharply far left secular progressive - once the highest office was his.

A peaceful uprising you say? The center right or left also hopes for an up- rising before our Constitution becomes a thing of the past and many of our freedoms are lost. But I give you too much power.

America is a Republic. Why is that so hard for those like you to digest? I have friends all over the world, some who never have really been free, yet, incredibly, they do not like the U.S. as it presently is. Capitalism is a bad thing to them.

Perhaps we should all move to Venezuela?

I do not mean to be rude, but you people do not know what you have, and because you don't understand how lucky you are, you seem to want to tear down instead of build up. Tear down what you think of as the 'old ways,' I mean.

Again, I do hope I'm wrong.

Perhaps I will see some of you at an 'uprising' someday. We can peacefully shout at one another across the political divide.

Regards,
Ayasha

USA - Ayasha is an American Indian name meaning 'little one' and no, because I am part Indian, I don't think anyone owes me something because 'the land was stolen from the 'Red Indian.' 'Land stolen from the Red Indian' is how some of my South Asian friends describe what happened so long ago. It's one of their anti- American diatribes. Still, we are friends. We just don't agree. I do not feel entitled - they think I should.
