Those who "settled the West" ought to be remembered in the same light as those Israeli settlers who build new settlements in the West Bank of Occcupied Palestine!

As the dust settles after many celebrated the historic election of the nation's first African-American president and in the midst of the worst financial crisis since the 1930's not to mention two wars still raging, what is next?
