Academia is failing in their attempt to “de-Americanize” our youth. They certainly are trying hard, but the proof is that the kids in schools and colleges around the country are steeped in the traditions of America – in spite of the best efforts of teachers and professors to dumb them down and take away our traditions. Teachers have failed to get our children interested in the boring classes and the lackluster uninspired way they present topics – and they have FAILED in their efforts to expel the “heart” of our children’s understanding of competition.
One of the simplest ways to demonstrate my point is to look at sports. For years academics have tried to downplay the importance of sports and winning to our kids. Yet, our kids continue to intuitively understand competition and winning. We see it every weekend this time of year on the gridirons as hundreds of thousand of screaming faithful flock to stadiums to cheer on their favorite football teams. They are NOT going out there to see their team play to a tie nor are they there to watch a spirited game and not keep score. When two teams take to the field one is going to win and the other is going to lose. That translates – for our Lib friends who have trouble with math – to mean that half the teams in the country on any given weekend are going to be winners and the other half are going to be losers.
Let’s face a simple reality that drives academics on the Left NUTS – Americans understand the simple concepts of winning and losing better than anyone else in the world. It's not just winning and losing; it's WINNING that Americans understand. We know and crave the feeling of winning in every aspect of our lives. From the office to the gridiron to the battlefields in far off deserts – it’s what we’re about. We know a lot about winning and will do everything in our power to make it happen.
Another truism of ours is that no American likes to lose. None. We abhor the very idea of losing. Some learn to fake it because it happens, but inside we WANT TO WIN!! We learn to take our defeats with honor and humility, but no sooner are we shaking the victor’s hand than we’re plotting how to best him next time. (There are teachers and Liberal parents all over the country who just threw their computer screens out the window.) In spite of the best efforts of the Leftist losers our children WANT TO WIN.
Pick an American sport and there’s not a kid in the country that hasn’t imagined himself or herself in the game-winning scenario with all the marbles on the table, our backs to the wall and it’s on our shoulders to save the day. We see ourselves stepping up to the plate in the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded, down by three and pounding the three-and-two fastball over the centerfield wall… Or, with time running our on the clock, down by four, a field goal won’t get it done, it has to be a touchdown and on the last play scoring the winning touchdown as time runs out... Or, the end-to-end basket as the clock sounds to win the game. It’s always all on the line and we always win in front of a screaming crowd. We not only want to win, we want to win BIG!! We want to fight for it and we want to do it with honor. We are winners. It’s bred into us. It’s who we are. We are winners.
Try as they may, Leftist teachers have failed MISERABLY. Will that deter them? No. They’ll keep coming after the kids in a relentless tide trying to take away their desire to be winners. And, in their way, those teachers are demonstrating their own desire to win, to overcome adversity and pull off a victory over Conservatives. In so doing, they are MAKING MY POINT. They want to WIN their battle and make our children non-competitors. They are failing miserably – THEY ARE LOSING.
Americans love winning and our kids know and understand it as much today as they have since the founding of this nation. In that very evolution of the soul to be WINNRS I see the REAL HOPE for our future. America is about to take another HUGE step forward as a nation as we unite against our internal oppressors. We WILL be victorious.
AMERICANS ARE WINNERS!
