The Elected Officials enacting the Laws, Rules, Amendments and making the decisions that carry out the combined wishes of the aforementioned Five loosely defined Groupings. As in any point in time one would hope Americans are being mindfully a.)Smart b.)Aware c.)Informed d.)Logical e.)Rational and always f.) Caring about not only their personal welfare but the balanced welfare of the other men/women/children – no matter where they might live - on this one unified planet of ours.
