Pure Guts.....
9-28-2020
After watching an old 1940 movie (NORTHWEST PASSAGE) again, I came to the realization that even with all of the Hollywood Glitz – “WE AMERICANS Are Truly a Wonder To Behold! We fought our way into the history books (time and time again), as we battled against “Virtual Juggernauts” that could never be beaten? “And in the process, we trounced them just the same!” As a matter of fact, we even weathered the best that the wilderness had, and the most violent that “Mother Nature” could whip-up to throw our way – and yet, we still emerged stronger and tougher than we ever were before! As a matter of fact again, even “The Unbeatable Gargantuans of Europe and Asia” dared not to challenge our muscle or our industrial might – not and survive that is! “So what was our secret weapon throughout the last two-hundred and forty-four years?” It was “Pure American Guts”, our technological prowess, our vision for the future, Patriotic-Pride and a love of all that we were and everything that we were yet to become – “THAT’S WHAT IT WAS!!” Hardcore

In addition to HC's post -
A great piece HC
- I would say America has the best ideologies going for our way of life. - What is the purpose of ideology? Ideologies are ideas whose purpose is not epistemic, but political. Thus an ideology exists to confirm a certain political viewpoint, serve the interests of certain people, or to perform a functional role in relation to social, economic, political and legal institutions. - Also known as a Creed, Doctrine, Philosophy with Principles, and we American's have our Beliefs - that pull us together as one people. - In social studies, a political ideology is a certain set of ethical ideals, principles, doctrines, myths or symbols of a social movement, institution, class or large group that explains how society should work and offers some political and cultural blueprint for a certain social order. A link describing "DEMOCRACY AND IDEOLOGY by: BERNARD WILLIAMS" Re: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/...1961.tb00175.x (It really hits home: I suggest you read this short piece for more enlightenment).
