The fate of democracy relies on The Lone Star State. I lived and worked there long enough to learn that no one dares to mess with Texas. Oprah Winfrey is the main attraction participating in phone-banking marathons, including U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders, former San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro, and music legend Willie Nelson who has also been dialing for ballots. in fact, Nelson has been politically active going all the way back to when he helped Jimmy Carter win the presidency.

When I look in my window
So many different people to be
That it's so strange

You got to pick up every stitch
Must be the season of the wish

We are wishing for four happy years without hate or fear.

The pressure is on for the GOP because they bet on the worst possibility and placed their trust in the egomaniac.  Now that their part is deteriorating fast, Republican Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell admits he could lose control, Lindsey Graham desperately feels the same heat, and Senator Ted Cruz, who is not up for re-election has nevertheless read the writing on the wall sounded the alarm, saying the election will be a “Bloodbath” for Republicans.

The morality of being human in the moral sense refers to our predisposition to evaluate actions as morally good, or morally bad. Morality consists of the urge or predisposition to judge human actions as either right or wrong in terms of their consequence for other human beings.

As the youngest son of my late MoM Margarita, a loving husband to Yirong, father of two fabulous women, Natasha and Sabrina, and four bright and gorgeous granddaughters, Elena, Chloe, Sophia, and Olivia, and brother in law to three amazing ladies, Leo, Dena, and ShinRong, I am extremely proud to say they're all wonder women to me.

It is my honest opinion that women are not only smarter than men, they are the most important gender, without a doubt.

Do you recall that Trump refused to participate in the second televised debate on #ABC and then went on to secure a TV Town Hall with #NBC, which carried it on not one network, but three? He said he would humiliate #JoeBiden with the ratings, as three networks would surely garner more viewers than one. WRONG. He was humiliated and has not said another word.

Now he is saying that when he loses the election, he will leave the country. Do we wonder where he will wander off to, Russia or North Korea? 

Some may try to badmouth this unique city, but if you're ever lucky enough to consider yourself a New Yorker, you will just blow it off.

New York City, aka The Big Apple, is a magical place featured in major motion pictures, Television programs, online media, like this post, and last but not least, it is also written about in popular songs. In fact, Gotham has served as an inspirational focal point for folks all over the universe. 

There’s good news and bad news. As the USA keeps crying uncle, Mother 🌏 Earth has not spun off its axis yet and American democracy will not come crashing down, at least not until Election Day. Meanwhile, The US has reportedly reached 8 million #Covid-19 cases, and the pace of new infections signals a tough winter, while POTUS says no masks are necessary.

Florida Crackers are American pioneers, their family members, and all their descendants who live in what is now the Sunshine State.

The first wave of these settlers arrived in 1763 after Spain traded Florida to Great Britain following the latter's victory over France in the Seven Years' War.

The main reason why Florida is so important in the election is because of its swing-state status. In the election, Florida is worth a total of 29 electoral votes, more than any other traditional swing state.

Madam and mister American newspaper publishers, temporarily tear down your paywalls until Election Day. Do it for our Democracy.

Traditional newspapers were supposed to die in a world of free digital content. Instead, many are thriving by gating content behind paywalls. Paywalls can force users to pay for access, but also impact heavy users disproportionately and harm engagement. However, they can boost print subscription sales by 1-4 percent.
