In the United States - You serve your nation to the best of your ability - REGARDLESS of who the president is. Operational requirements and large objects exploding around you often deprive you of the luxury of debating the hidden purposes of your leadership.
I talked recently with a young man returning from Iraq. He said he would vote for Barack Obama simply because he didn't want to go back again.
The United States is more than a country; It is an ever-changing collection of ideas and opportunites. I think last Tuesday marks a shift toward positive possibilities - And a chance for the Republican Party to remake itself for the future.
