Every great edifice has a cornerstone,
from which the foundation spreads,
and the stories rise.
Every family has two cornerstones,
from whom the children emerge,
and are raised to strengthen their communities.
Every community has several cornerstones,
from whom the leaders emerge,
and rise up to keep their towns and cities strong.
Every nation has a plethora of cornerstones,
from which the generation of ideas proceeds,
and safeguards the security of the land.
Our planet has a myriad of cornerstones,
by whom the human race can be united,
and the spiritual unification of mankind may be realized.

Unfortunately in terms of most national political leaders, each nation’s plethora of cornerstones seem to have rocks in their heads. :p

That’s not what I meant, Chris. The cornerstones of a nation are its dedicated citizens, who work hard for their country, with a “sane and intelligent patriotism.”
