I had problems with Facebook with a certain name, so I changed that name.

After all is not Texas better off with Miracles.

BETTER Believe In Texas Miracles

 

Hear those “We the People” soft whispers

Across all parts of Texas that seek real change

From the Texas panhandle, dry why winds

To the surf of the misty why, Gulf of Mexico

The silence roars, in why we need Texan values,

To flow within the HeArt and Soul of Texas.

We must become family, believing in miracles.

 

BETTER Believe, we can make a difference.

If BETTER builds this better dream

That all of Texas can believe in.

Why Texans will flock to the polls

With someone Texas can believe in,

Who walk’s ’n talks being proud Texan

In neighborhoods feeling represented.

 

How does any Texas Miracle begin?

With this BETTER grain that bucks the system.

Who campaign is funded by People’s Hope

That we can again build American Dreams.

Where if we build it - they will come.

Let Lone Star Texas be this United State

Amid these patriot proud United States.

 

America been on Cruise Control for too long.

Where forces outside Texas rule it supreme.

They do not see the fabric material makeup,

Sown in people faces from True Grit Fortitude.

That Independence to be Texan, a Bald Eagle

With talons that fights within the Alamo spirit.

 

No body steps on Texas, we have sharp Longhorns.

We do not elect special interest jerk PoliMorticians.

But we do select human invested work Politicians.

Our officials must be home bred inside pure passion

That come from walking among its hard working class.

America was built up from those who work the land.

 

Do you see any Texas Conservative family conscience?

With those who seek to divide and conquer using hate.

They seek to divide Texan against Texan using religion.

But what religion teaches to bully, to intimidate division.

That America and Texas divided creates such discord

Friends divide, family separate, Have’s rule Have not’s

America is destroyed from within economic segregation.

 

BETTER Believe in our Declaration of civil human governance

The great poem describing the greatness of Texas and the need for change.

The fact is that most Texans are dirt poor, especially in the vast countryside largely owned by large landowners and even corporations. Landowners are faced with drought, fire, flood, tornado, disease, regulations and taxes. They do most of the voting and want to control the state. Big oil backs the landowners and together control much of the offices in the state.

Much of the wealth of Texas has come from oil, but that is no longer the case when oil and the industries (plastics, insecticides, etc.) created by it have become the greatest polluters in the world. The other wealth of Texas has been newly arrived immigrants from all over the world who work very hard to make a place for themselves and to achieve the American dream.

Most of the poor in Texas have felt helpless and have not voted. It is time they did.

Ron
