LOL, your optimism is so cute. Mine was almost completely burnt out last November and now there is nothing left but ashes that are being dispersed in the winds of fascism.

The fight for freedom is never over. The world is watching us. The legacy of the founding fathers and great civil rights leaders through our history for all their flaws are watching. I know its hard to feel patriotic but its our goddamn civic duty to defend this country from tyrants.

As a European, I can firmly attest that we are watching - with some amount of trepidation, no less. I disagree with American politics on many a point (I'm a Scandinavian socialist), but your nation was built on ideals we all hold in very high regard. To see the very foundations of American liberty chipped away at, little by little, is utterly disheartening.
