9-11 Remembrance and Democracy

On this somber day, we should remember the victims of 9-11.  Osama bin Laden did not just attack our institutions of commerce, military and government but he also attacked democracy.    He is dead  thanks to our president and the military but we must never let those who want to destroy our freedom and democracy prevail.  We must renew our commitment to democracy by becoming informed on the issues and our candidates.
