We are part of a mighty exodus of the exiled returning home… the land of our freedom, a land of potential, America, yearning always to be free, awaits us now. These last years we have marched back to her, and the way is long and grueling. Along the way we have picked up refugees, those that trusted the Republicans, who didn’t recognize their state of exile as readily as we. Now they are we. They’ve realized.
Together we march Back to America. We reach the gates tomorrow, November 7. Yes, it’s true, they have built a gate where citizens used to pass freely, and we will reach there tomorrow, our long journey to the gate is nearly complete. If we reach the gate and are rebuffed… we will not relent nor lose, victory will still be ours and shortly. We will still go forward, a mass of exiles stands before the gate and history says the gate will yield.
But — hello! — there is reason to expect the gate will be open, and if it has any keepers, they will be our Democratic allies who will let us through and march with us the rest of the way to the heart of America, back into the America we love and require to survive as Americans must. They may not get us farther than that, they may not take us to the America of the Future which we know lays on our future paths, this a strong and free America which makes itself a modern and sustainable America… be vigilant but assured they will continue our march with us to the heart of America.
Our destination is near, the Heart of America where there is yearning to be free, the thirst for knowledge, the ability to know reality. We head back to an America that does not torture its enemies, an America that looks after its health, an America not at war with the world, an America about fair play, an America that is lead by sober leadership.
Fear nothing, this land is our land.

I think this is better than my “hope is for the weak” line… I think we’re a bit closer…
I have a colleague that is a cognitive scientist and he likes the metaphor of “bring america back” but I don’t think America changed, not the Real America that yearns to be free.
This is different from the Real America that violated it’s goal, that yearned for slavery, that America is just the growing pains of making a better kind of nation state in the world, one that is about freedom, compassion, reality.
health, fairness, sanity.
that is a real America, we have been exiled from those hopes but no more, we can have hope now, we do not need to struggle without it, we can reclaim the heart of America, rejoin it and our splendid philosophy of liberation, freedom for all mankind.
we won’t be stopped now, we will once again reclaim America from sea to shining sea.
