All Politicians do is Talk", just ask any vet!

Of the many things Donald Trump said during the first 
Republican debate one stood out to me, "All Politicians 
do is Talk". Trump was referring to problems passed along 
rather than being resolved.

One issue Trump speaks about is the Veterans Administration
which has had  problems serving veterans efficiently for decades, 
proof positive Trump's claim, "All Politicians do is Talk", is more 
than campaign talk!

Why bring up the VA now?  For one thing Trump brings up the VA
and its  problems at every rally and in every interview.

But, more than a presidential candidate bringing up the problems 
at the VA is the news which is rarely reported. Today, there was one.

Today, in Long Island, NY a tragic event occurred. A seventy-six year 
old veteran killed himself in the parking Lot of V.A. Hospital.

Put yourself in this man's shoes. He lived a long life, served his
 country earned the medical services all veterans earned. He goes 
to the VA hospital for aid and wound up killing himself.

To take another comment from Donald Trump, "This should not 
happen  in America". Yet, it does happen with regularity as the veterans
who served in World War II, Korea and Vietnam are not receiving medical 
assistance  they rightfully deserve.

The Veterans Administration has been paralyzed by its own bureaucracy. 
What they do should be no more complex than private medical facilities, 
but apparently in govt. they must be.

Veteran should not have to wait 3-6-9 months for an appointment as many
do. They should not have to be restricted to VA facilities when private ones
can see them immediately.

The problems at the VA are not insurmountable, it appears to be Congress is.

Maybe Donald Trump, who never served in the military, may be the person to
serve our veterans!
