Global political conditions make a direct American intervention difficult but President Reagan's messianic and visceral attitude toward the Nicaraguan revolution could mean it will happen as an act of desperation.
Canada has a passive-aggressive culture with a lot of sarcasm and righteousness. That went with my weird messianic complex. The ego is a fascinating monster. I was taught from a young age that I had to serve so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.
For all my years in public life I have believed that America must sail toward the shores of liberty and justice for all. There is no end to that journey only the next great voyage. We know the future will outlast all of us but I believe that all of us will live on in the future we make.
