NOTE: All text in red are my comments and feelings alone. May I just add here, while I am not very familiar with the authors, I feel they are displaying some educational indoctrination regarding Diversity, Equity and Inclusion as the vocabulary of the Virus of Wokeness. Those words and the meaning they portray in today’s education system, in my opinion, need to be expunged and erased from our vocabulary. Just my opinion, but in the world I am creating, they are not necessary at all. No disrespect is intended to the original authors at all.

Question 1: Reimagining Elections as Sacred Duties
What if, instead of viewing elections in America as mere political contests, we saw them as crucibles of our collective values and aspirations, where the choices we make not only determine the course of our nation but also reveal the true nature of our commitment to America and the ideals upon which it was founded? In this quest for electoral integrity and representation, can we reimagine elections as a sacred duty, transcending partisan lines, where the voice of every American is heard, every vote counts, and the process itself becomes a testament to the enduring pursuit of a more perfect union?
Some consideration must be given to the age that people are allowed to vote—maybe at least 21? Rather than just age alone, a method to assess the mental, emotional and educational "age" or health of the individual needs to be built. As a result, a Civics test might be required every few years for everyone. The younger the people are, the more often it might be required. Civics (let’s think of a far better name) should be taught in every grade. Patriotism?
Rebirth of Election Integrity (formerly Question #8)
What if we saw elections in America not just as moments of political transition, but as potential catalysts for a rebirth of election integrity, where we reevaluate the fundamental principles that underpin our electoral system? Can we embark on a journey of reimagining elections to ensure that they are not only fair and transparent but also robust in their protection against external interference and internal manipulation, while simultaneously promoting broader civic engagement, diversity, and representation? In the quest for this rebirth, how do we reconcile the tension between safeguarding the integrity of our election processes and expanding access to the ballot box, and what innovative strategies can we employ to reinvigorate our election processes so that it serves the needs and aspirations of all Americans in an ever-evolving world?
The elections will surely be mostly for the local administration and officials to carry out the wishes of WE THE PEOPLE. The national elections may become far less of a spectacle than they are now.
Question 2: Shaping a Narrative of Civil Rights
What if the journey towards true equality and civil rights in America, often marked by triumphs and setbacks, is not just a chapter in our history but an ongoing story? How can we, as a nation, shape our view of civil rights, weaving together the threads of justice, liberty, and equality to create a narrative where every individual, regardless of their race, gender, or background, not only enjoys the rights enshrined in our constitution but also feels a profound sense of belonging and equity (Wokeness word: Equality vs. Equity) in the mosaic of American life? In this symphony of social progress, how do we harmonize the complexities of the past with the aspirations of the future, and what role does each generation play in shaping this view of civil rights that will resonate through the annals of history?
Question 3: Reformation of Criminal Justice
What if, in the pursuit of a criminal justice system that truly reflects the principles of fairness, equity, and rehabilitation, we viewed the ashes of past injustices not as the end, but as the fertile ground from which to nurture a reformation of reform? How can we rise from the ashes of a system often marred by racial disparities, mass incarceration, and recidivism, and instead craft a new narrative where justice is restorative, where punishment seeks redemption, and where the scales are balanced not by the weight of sentences, but by the measure of human dignity? And how do we ensure that the flames of reform burn brightly, lighting the way toward a criminal justice system that not only serves the cause of public safety but also embodies the highest ideals of a just, fair, and compassionate nation?
Question 4: Agriculture for Sustainability
What if we harnessed the potential of agriculture in America not just as a source of profit but as a transformative force for sustainability, resilience, and equitable prosperity? Can we re-envision our agricultural practices and policies in such a way that they become a catalyst for regenerative practices, soil health, and biodiversity, fostering a future where agriculture doesn't deplete the land and resources, but replenishes and regenerates them? In this shift, how do we ensure that the wealth generated isn't solely economic but encompasses the well-being of farmers, rural communities, and the planet itself, ultimately leading us towards a sustainable agricultural model that attracts not just financial gains but also the enduring benefits of a thriving, interconnected ecosystem?
Question 5: Adapting Laws to Changing Values
What if we contemplated the evolution of law in America not merely as a collection of precedents set, but as a living testament to the ever-changing dynamics of America and human morality? Can we strive to understand the delicate balance between preserving the sanctity of precedent and adapting to the shifting tides of justice, ensuring that our legal system remains both a guardian of stability and a catalyst for progress? In this journey, how do we navigate the tension between tradition and transformation, and what responsibility do we bear to ensure that our laws not only reflect the values of the past but continue to serve as a beacon of justice, equity, and human rights in an ever-evolving world?
Question 6: Responsible Military Stewardship
What if we contemplated the role of military and defense in America not as the means of unchecked power and aggression, but as the complex guardians of our nation's security and the stewards of global peace? Can we grapple with the moral and ethical dilemmas that arise from wielding military might, striving to find a delicate balance between safeguarding our interests and promoting diplomacy, humanitarian values, and global cooperation? In the shadow of military power, how do we ensure that our actions not only protect our national sovereignty but also cultivate a world where peace, justice, and shared prosperity are accessible to all, and how can we wield our military strength responsibly in pursuit of these ideals?
Question 7: Fostering Interfaith Understanding
What if we viewed the tapestry of religious diversity in America, where time seems to stand still for cherished beliefs and traditions, not as a source of division, but as an opportunity for profound interfaith understanding and spiritual enrichment? Can we create a society where the myriad faiths coexist in harmony, fostering an environment where religious freedom is not just a legal principle, but a deeply ingrained cultural value that encourages dialogue, respect, and the sharing of timeless wisdom across traditions? In regard to religious practices and convictions, how do we bridge the gaps of misunderstanding and prejudice, and how can we collectively move forward to embrace the richness of our diverse spiritual tapestry as a source of unity and enlightenment?
Question 8: Rebirth of Election Integrity
What if we saw elections in America not just as moments of political transition, but as potential catalysts for a rebirth of election integrity, where we reevaluate the fundamental principles that underpin our electoral system? Can we embark on a journey of reimagining elections to ensure that they are not only fair and transparent but also robust in their protection against external interference and internal manipulation, while simultaneously promoting broader civic engagement, diversity, and representation? In the quest for this rebirth, how do we reconcile the tension between safeguarding the integrity of our election processes and expanding access to the ballot box, and what innovative strategies can we employ to reinvigorate our election processes so that it serves the needs and aspirations of all Americans in an ever-evolving world?
Question 9: Empowering the Labor Force
What if we perceived the complex web of labor and employment in America as a contemporary framework of interconnected systems, where individuals are not merely cogs in a machine but active participants in shaping the future of work and economic justice? Can we awaken to the realization that the rules governing labor, wages, and workplace conditions are not fixed, but rather a dynamic construct influenced by societal values, technological advancements, and evolving economic models? In the midst of the framework of labor and employment, how do we empower workers, foster economic inclusivity, and embrace the possibilities of automation and innovation without compromising the dignity, security, and well-being of the labor force, ultimately crafting a future where every American's contribution is valued, and every worker has the freedom to choose in navigating this ever-changing landscape?
Question 10: Holistic National Security
What if we viewed the concept of national security in America, often associated with the storm of external threats and internal challenges, as not just a matter of defense but as an intricate balancing act between safeguarding our nation's interests and upholding the principles of freedom, civil liberties, and global cooperation? Can we embark on a journey where the pursuit of security doesn't erode our commitment to human rights and the rule of law, but reinforces them, and where the storms of conflict are mitigated through diplomacy and collaboration rather than escalated through aggression? In the face of national security, how do we navigate the complexities of our world, protect our people, and project our values in a way that ensures a safer, more just, and harmonious global future?
Question 11: Transformative Transportation
What if we directed our collective attention not only to the convenience and efficiency of transportation in America but also to the profound impact it has on our environment, social equity, and quality of life? Can we transform our perspective on transportation from a mere means of getting from point A to point B to a holistic system that prioritizes sustainability, accessibility, and the well-being of all communities, regardless of their location or socioeconomic status? In the age of rapid urbanization and climate change, how can we harness our attention to drive innovation in transportation that minimizes environmental harm, promotes inclusivity, and reimagines the way we connect, fostering a future where mobility is not just a convenience but a vehicle for positive societal transformation?
Question 12: Cultivating Cultural Awareness
What if we approached the multifaceted tapestry of culture in America with a heightened conscious awareness, recognizing that it is not just a reflection of our past but a living entity that shapes our present and future? Can we navigate the complexities of cultural diversity with empathy and respect, embracing the notion that every cultural thread contributes to the rich fabric of our nation? In this pursuit of heightened consciousness, how do we ensure that cultural expression and heritage are preserved and celebrated, while also fostering an environment where cultures can evolve, intersect, and influence one another, ultimately crafting a national identity that values diversity, inclusivity, and the enduring interplay of traditions and innovation?
Question 13: Expanding Patriotism
What if, as patriots committed to the ideals of liberty and justice, we redefined the concept of national security in America to encompass not only the protection of our borders but also the safeguarding of our institutions, the preservation of civil liberties, and the promotion of global peace? Can we forge a path where patriotism is not only expressed through military might but also through the vigilant defense of our founding principles and values, as well as a commitment to addressing the global challenges that threaten the well-being of all nations? In this pursuit of a more comprehensive national security, how do we strike a balance between robust defense and the protection of individual freedoms, ensuring that our actions reflect the very ideals that make our nation worth defending, and how can we inspire a new generation of patriots who champion these principles in an interconnected world?
Question 14: Equity in Law
What if we contemplated the role of law in America, often seen as a tool to create order and justice, through the lens of equality, acknowledging that the application of law can both uplift and oppress? Can we confront the uncomfortable truth that, at times, the very institutions established to administer justice have been complicit in perpetuating injustices and inequalities? In this sobering reflection, how do we work towards a legal system that is not only just in principle but equitable in practice, ensuring that the law becomes a force for good, rectifying historical wrongs, and providing a pathway to redemption for individuals and communities who have borne the weight of systemic injustices, ultimately forging a path toward a more just and compassionate nation?
Question 15: Environmental Stewardship
What if we approached the pressing environmental challenges in America, irrespective of political affiliations or leaders, with the recognition that the health of our planet transcends any single administration or ideology? Can we find common ground and consensus to address issues like climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation, recognizing that the consequences of our actions or inactions affect not just us but future generations as well? In this pursuit of environmental stewardship, how can we bridge divides, foster collaboration, and ensure that our actions align with the urgent need to protect our planet, regardless of political affiliations, so that we can leave a legacy of sustainability and resilience for all future leaders and people?
Question 16: Education as a Catalyst for Awakening
What if we viewed education in America as the catalyst for the awakening, not only of individual minds but of an entire nation, recognizing that it has the power to shape not only the intellectual capacity of our people but also the moral and civic foundations of our nation? Can we reimagine education as a transformative force that not only imparts knowledge and skills but also instills empathy, critical thinking, and a deep sense of responsibility towards one another and the world we inhabit? In this pursuit of awakening, how do we ensure that educational opportunities are equitable, inclusive, and reflective of the diverse experiences and aspirations of all learners, ultimately forging a path where education serves as the cornerstone of a more enlightened, compassionate, and harmonious America?
Question 17: Media Literacy and Informed People
What if, in a nation where we seemingly have it all in terms of media choices and information access, we questioned the impact of this abundance on the health of our nation and the integrity of journalism itself? Can we reflect on the responsibilities and challenges faced by the media in a digital age, where the lines between fact and fiction, opinion and news, have blurred, and where the 24/7 news cycle can be both a source of enlightenment and division? In this age of information abundance, how do we discern truth from misinformation, ensure that journalism remains a pillar of freedom, and promote media literacy, critical thinking, and the pursuit of objective reporting that serves as a cornerstone of an informed and engaged people?
From here on are questions I have added because I felt they were also needed as we reimagine our new Republic of the United States of America.
Question 18:
What if our focus was wellness, health and longevity for our physical bodies thereby questioning and emphasizing our entire food supply and nutritional standards? Included in this focus are new ways to care for ourselves. Improved quality of the food supply, the air we breathe and the water we drink will assist our bodies to heal and flourish. As truth is revealed about sunlight we will learn of its many healing qualities. As suppressed inventions are released and made available, we will learn the value and importance of resonance/vibrational healing.
