Gore Urges Obama to Create U.S. Power Grid

The delicate balance our forefathers placed in our Constitution to protect the less populated states, and their diverse ways of life, from the wills of the more populated ones, is being slowly dismantled.

This path has already been trod on a smaller scale by New York State.

The delicate balance our forefathers placed in our NY State Constitution to protect its less populated areas, and their diverse ways of life, from the will of the more populated ones, was dismantled 40 years ago . . .

While the results have been disastrous for Upstate . . . the entire Empire State has suffered, being a mere shell of its former self.

Will the US now go down this road . . . producing some winners but a lot of losers? And, in the end, become . . . ordinary?

There is strength in diversity.


Are we going to continue as a nation of states? Or one state?
