Bridging the great divide.

I am the last one to agree with Republican policy.  Why?  Because I believe with every ounce of fiber that those policies and principles are wrong for the country.

However and I mean this with every ounce of my fiber, that there is a 'greater good' to be served in the USA by closing the 'political ideology bridge' with real facts, the truth and what is best for the USA.

Regardless of how Former Governor Jeb Bush urshered in policies for Florida which I strongly believe was adverse to what is best for Florida and were more political than they should have been;  I cannot ignore what is best for the country and I believe he would say the same thing.  The fact that the country needs to be healed of its extremist views which dominated the 2010 elections.  Views that Former Governor Jeb Bush never adhered to or made a part of anyone's reality.  He didn't 'do a go round with Governor Perry or otherwise.  I anyone recalls.

I am pleased to see and I thank the Former Governor Jeb Bush for appearing on the same stage with a President I love dearly and his Education Secretary as they attempt to bring the nation together in the same spirit of cooperation.

I could carry on and on and on with 'What's wrong with this picture?;' but, it would not do the nation any good.  Former Governor Jeb Bush came forward to make a statement about closing the 'great divide' between Democrats and Republicans to find 'the high ground' where what is best for the nation.  There is NOTHING wrong with that picture.

I would sincerely like the rhetorical statements by any party to stop and real progress take place in the USA.  Let's hope this helps.  I sincerely doubt President Obama or Secreatary Arne Duncan are changing their policies or philosophies as to what is best for the country.  There is sincerely ways of closing the gap on what is best for America and it includes the love of family, the ideal of American exceptionalism and what is good economic policy that doesn't kick 'the entire next generation' down the road for the sake of deficit reduction.  There are right ways and wrong ways to seeking the same goals.  Let's hope this joint appearance helps with that understanding.

Personally, from observing President Obama since he took office; many of his policies are strongly based in the idea of 'The Future of America while solving the present problems.' He does this with a love for his daughters.  I don't care if that policy is about the economic stability of the country, education and protecting and preparing our mind trust or climate policy.  He looks at policy from a stand point that includes the next generation and not simply 'here and now.'

I thank him, Secretary Duncan and Former Governor Jeb Bush for taking this valuable first step.

Nice.
