Mohammed and Jane

People said, “My country right or wrong.” I heard this statement made by respected leaders. I have pondered and decided there are times when a person should resist the temptation to follow the leader. Nobody has the right answers all the time. The President of the United States is not always right. It is O.K. to attempt to change his mind or to refuse to obey him when we feel he is wrong. Mohammed Ali and Jane Fonda refused to obey the Government during the Vietnamese War. They made a stand during those years when almost all the news media supported the war. They took a lot of flack, and some may hate them for what they stood for. But many feel Ali and Jane were courageous heroes.
