Bernice: We are united states, but as you can clearly see from our elections, we are currently a very divided America as well!

I think we are common in that we all (Majority/most of us) believe in freedom and democracy and all the trimmings that go with those.... but how exactly all that looks is where the differences come into play.

What is the specific role of the Federal Government? How much is too much how little is too little?

There are people at all points on the spectrum, and because we all get a vote, we tend to mostly stay somewhere in the middle, with slight ebbs and flows over longer periods of time.

In the long term, these differences are good for the country. What sucks is in the short term, when brother is against brother or some particularly polarizing event IE Iraq pops up, but overall it is a good thing having different views because we are fortunate enough to all believe in a system that is second to none!
