Does America need a renaissance now that it is over 200 years old? You know a culture can
get old if it doesn't mix with new cultures.And immigrants used to add some zip. But now, political culture, certainly on the right,is stuck in the past. European economics and culture has been blacked out by the MSM. Does Obama need to open the window and let some air in once he wins re-election. Perhaps include more American Indian culture at all levels of government. Cause immigrants just go into the melting pot. Then don't seem to be encouraging cultural growth what with all the fascism controlling the body politic in the USA today.

1. Which part of the Renaissance?
The creativity, innovation and beauty? Or the court treachery and poisonings?

2. We have the treachery and the poisonings right now with the GOP putting party before
country every day resulting in downgrades and economic uncertanty. No - I mean the good stuff. The innovation where the USA leads the world in technology. Creativity that I think the Obama WH has showed in their varied responces to the Arab Spring countries. Enough with the Bachmanns of the world rewriting founding father stuff again and again. As if that is the only narrative that could possibly fit into an American brain.
