The beauty that our founders bequeathed us and our parents is that we can imagine a more perfect union. A more perfect freedom. A more perfect world. Those who fear it have a disease. Their disease can be cured. Fear is the disease. Love is the cure. Love is not so happy, happy. Love is eyes wide open. This is Nancy Pelosi. She knows the stakes. The "stakes" is the future. The "stakes" is our children. We are temporal beings. Our individual time is short. Our kind will live long. We are an ancient. Our children are all that really matters. Secure their future.
