Change

Many in the media and the political left have declared that the recent change of power in the Senate and House of Representatives shows that the American people want change. Clearly, this is the case, however, change should never be an end.

American politics have an oscillating quality; we almost always going back and forth between two parties. When we are disgusted of corrupt politicians, we demand change, and put the other guys in charge. We do not demand improvement, we do not demand integrity, we simply demand change. Oscillating between two groups of politicians will never solve the problem, it will only lead to a downward spiral. We don't just need change, we need strong, Christian leadership. We need to elect men who will stand for what is right, never compromising. We need to demand, not change, but improvement. The end we seek is not change, the end we seek is leaders who are Statesman, not Politicians; change is the means to this end.
