- ... groups of humans, and this is where we are greatly influenced by things such as culture, family, and living. Our social history is long. It starts somewhere in the middle of nothing. God or the Big Bang? you pick. and it ends up here right now. We started small, maybe even as small as little neutrons and protons, but we have evolved. We have created a language, created trasnspotation, created the basics ... the other glitter. Our political history runs as deep as the Mississippi. And I am sure if you want to scrape up info on politics in the past, they may be as muddy as that big river. This is our history; take it or leave it. It is what we have done; good or bad.
