Is the mainstream media going after Ben Carson unlike any other Democratic opponent? I think we all honestly know the answer to this question. Yet when someone opens themselves up as a candidate of true character the media will scrutinize their record with a toothbrush. Ben Carson has every right to challenge the media loudly/ publicly on their double standard and why they are making a minor story in his life a major headline but he also must consider the bio he presents as well. This shouldn’t be enough to stop his rise to the top but at the same time it shouldn’t be the reason he continues such a rise. Ben Carson is a wonderful talented man who’s experiences lead him to the race to the White House. Yet along that path his life record and political solutions will be more scrutinized then many others because he is a novice in the political sphere and how he deals with it will decide if he continues along that path or gets off and enjoys the view instead.
Free Enterprise Party
With the rise of Donald Trump, Ben Carson & Carly Fiorina there should be a hint that the American people want a new party. This party would not be made up of politicians or those in the “political know” but made up a citizens that want to perform public service for a few years then get back to the free market place. It appears that the people want individuals who aren’t trying to make politics a career but just a stop in their life’s to pursue public service. The “FREE ENTERPISE PARTY” would be such a party and here (below) would be the criteria on who could run and it’s basic philosophy.
(1) Only individuals who have spent the majority of their life’s working in private sector jobs and who’s last position was in such a position would only be eligible to run.
(2) Individuals who ran for office would swear to serve a maximum of two terms in office and then go back to the private sector for at least three years before running again for a different position.
(3) The philosophy would be limited governmental control in individual citizens life while at the same protecting those that are weakest from falling through the cracks.
Donald’s Achille’s Heel
Those who are running against “Donald Trump” must not make a direct hit but hit him kindness and a small nick that can grow larger. A question that makes him feel the compliment but not the deeper wound. Here’s how I might phrase it (below).
(1) If tomorrow I wanted to build a skyscraper as great as one of yours I’m sure you would say it was unrealistic because of my lack of knowledge and experience correct?
FOLLOW UP
(2) Are you familiar with the various types of filibusters that Congress can use to stop the types of legislation that you want to bring up and how would you deal with them.
(3) What type of Executive Orders would you keep from President Obama’s Administration?
On Election Day- The Greatest Job!
Imagine a dream job where you could receive a $174,000 base salary and only work 3 days a week or 137 days a year. This dream could become reality if the citizens hire you to be their representative. While those suckers are working day after day paying your salary you can bake in the sun and enjoy exciting trips around the world all on the tax payer $$’s. Best of all you have to do is join one side or the other and the monies will roll into your coffer to run for this dream position. It’s a position you can probably have for life unless you get caught with your hand and foot in the cookie jar. When you get tired of this exhausting work don’t worry you’ll receive a full pension and benefits for life. It’s never too late to join this elite club because change won’t appear anytime soon in these position because those that receive these benefits will be the ones voting for them.
See Saw of Presidential Politics
It would be great if we had that one candidate who believed in our values completely and still had the best chance to win but unfortunately the “political see saw” exists instead. Where a person might have to decide to support a candidate who isn’t sharing their entire philosophy because this candidate is more likely to win then the one they truly desire. it is the issue of settling and if and when we should make this balance or even consider sitting on the side? Settling is never easy but the key is to find the basic values that are unmovable in your heart and soul, then determine whether this candidate or office can truly have an impact on those values in your location. Depending on how you determine location and the significance of these values will help you to determine whether you should move the balance beam or leave it alone.
Vote For all -CNBC Presidential Debate
After watching the CNBC Presidential Debates I’ve decided my best vote is “all the above”. I see good and bad in each candidate so why don’t they just share. Monday could be Marco Rubio’s chance to be Commander in Chief and then he could pass the buck to Donald Trump on Tuesday. There’s 5 days a week so we can continue to rotate the leadership. It would truly screw up our adversaries because they wouldn’t know what to expect when Carly Fiorina says something on Wednesday will Ted Cruz will follow up on Thursday? Come to think of it this might confuse our allies as well. We’ll have to work out the details later I guess. Anyway this way everyone wins and gets to play in the “White House” together. It’s just too confusing for me to pick someone right now but here are a few quick highlights (below) of last nights debate.
NICE DONALD TRUMP- Donald Trump showed the truly Presidential side of his campaign by actually being kind to his competitors on stage.
MARCO RUBIO FIGHTS BACK- Jeb Bush and the media looked silly as they tried to attack Rubio on issues that they wouldn’t launch on those in the left or more liberal Republicans
TED CRUZ THROUGH SOME GREAT UPPER CUTS- The moderators had to change the tone of the debate after Ted Cruz landed some great hits.
CARLY FIORINA SMILED & INTERUPPTED- Her remarks appeared to prepared this time around but her smile was authentic.
Use the OCB Excuse
The next time others start to blame you and guilt resides in your heart use the OCB excuse and you’ll just fine. The key is to kind find which President those that are blaming you support. If it’s Bill Clinton you can of course say well at least I didn’t sleep with an 18 year old intern in the White House and lie to a court about it. I’m even bi-partisan, for I’m sure my friends from the left can tell me all the mistakes George W Bush made including sending us to a war based on dismantling nuclear weapons and counting those weapons as O. Hillary Clinton has Benghazi mistakes written all over her and President Obama wow can make a sinner a saint. The OCB excuse works all the time and should get you out of almost any guilty jamb for if the President’s did worse how bad could you be. Now if only G-D would allow that excuse as you try to walk up.
Defeating Hillary Clinton & # 3
15 won’t defeat Hillary Clinton in November but number 3 will. If a Bernie Sanders, Al Gore or any other prominent liberal candidate decides to run as an independent the Republican’s will take the White House no matter which of the 15 is their nominee. For when the vote is split between the Democrats and an Independent Liberal the Republican’s can start packing to move into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. While we spend monies fighting each other for the nomination let’s not forget to spend a few dollars and effort secretly to make sure this is accomplished as well. If we were Perot in the 1990’s it’s time for the Democrats to be Sanders/Gored today.
Benghazi- Hillary Clinton Guilty & Innocent
It’s impossible to listen/watch the Benghazi hearings with justice on your mind and not find that Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton not have any culpability on her hands. Of course if she could have known now what she didn’t know then, this tragedy would have been avoided. Yet we can’t blame her for not knowing these facts but instead for the failure to seek those facts out and therefore due her job with due diligence. When listening to the hearing we could observe that many of those facts were open to those who truly were looking for them and should have been followed up with a telephone call to Ambassador Chris Stevens. This is also apparent when we understand that there was never any blame set for her subordinates through firing or even a reprimand. The facts not politics are the substance that demonstrates this truth and no amount of politicking should change that.
Joe Biden In
I believe that Joe Biden will and should enter the Democratic Presidential Race. Even if his entry is too late to mount a successful campaign I believe it’s worth the try for the following reasons (below).
(1) INDICTED- Hillary Clinton is under an FBI investigations and if she’s indicted Joe Biden would take her first place lead in the race.
(2) SON- It is rumored that Joe Biden’s son dying wish was for him to run for the Presidency. Even if it’s not exactly how it’s written it gives him the emotional sway to bring voters and money to his campaign.
(3)WHY NOT- Nobody wants to look back and say what if and as you get older in life those chances become more difficult to take.
(4) HE LIKES CAMPAIGNING- Joe Biden enjoys politicking as much as any politician so this would be fun for him.
(5) STAR- By dragging this process out he has become a star and his entry would continue that push for fame instead of sitting behind the President.
(6) HILLARY CLINTON- She is awful politician surrounded by a talented staff but if her political side comes out Joe Biden can take the lead.
