The US Media Conglomerate's Control Of The National Agenda:



January 16-2008:

The US Media Conglomerate Is The Major Source For Preventing National Reconciliation!

The US media conglomerate is the single most Divisive, Manipulative, Partisan, Obstructive and Coercive instrument. That PREVENTS meaningful, objective, progressive Ethnic, Gender, Sexual Identity/Preferences, and Religious Freedom, from ever having the probity and rectitudinal discussions that it deserves.

This medium has been in the forefront for decades now, owned, controlled, and operated by a predominant White male elite, who feel that they have the right to mold the national agenda, thoughts, and attitudes on all of the above issues. This they do without any pretense whatever.


They even interpret political opinions, pronouncements and statements given by political representatives, to suit their own partisan and bias views, make presumptions whenever it serves their agenda. And is responsible for the promotion of ethnic, political division, religious self-righteousness, and cultural egocentrism.

Yes, the US national media have used the television most EFFECTIVELY to influence national politics, national prejudices, by coercive methods. And is largely responsible for the feeling among millions of Americans to shy away from any discourse, that is aimed at objective discussion and reconciliation of our historical ethnic and social prejudices.

Is there any end in sight to the usurpation of the Public via this medium?

I cannot see this happening anytime soon, so long as our information mediums are owned, controlled, and determined by a few White men, who believe they know what the American people need to HEAR, SEE, FEEL and BELIEVE.

The Things That Bother Me!


January 14-2008:

Senator John Mac Cain's Marshall Plan For Michigan!

WORD-UP:

John Mc Cain tells Michigans that the USA's 'Marshall Plan' package in 1945, that saved Europe after the war, could work here now, to create employment.
What a comparison!

The world in 1945 was totally different technologically, globally, and economically. India, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, and China, were not industrialized enough to effect global trade and economics like they do today.

And almost rivaling the USA in this regard.

Millions of jobs, and assembling processes are now being exported to these countries, making it very difficult for the working classes, especially the Blue Collar workers to bargain for decent wages/salaries, regular employment with benefits, and permanency.

So I still cannot see how any New Deal will help or create jobs by the Feds in 2008 and after. Unless they adopt a massive program like President Roosevelt did, by implementing a national and extensive highway construction program after the depression.

Meanwhile, Mitt Romney has no concrete plan on how he is going to bring back jobs to the state of Michigan!

WORD-UP:

The Media Crusade Of Cajoley-Mockery & Satire!

Every time I listen or watch local television, and the way they trivialize the political issues that these presidential candidates are trying to get across to their constituents. And by using facial, ethnic features and identity, to determine who looks like a President and who don't.

I cringe at the sorry state of affairs of public television in the USA currently.
What bothers me the most though, is that both front line democrats are being portrayed as using divisive tools to influence the minds of voters generally. And the media is leading in that crusade to make them the butt of jokes, mockery, cajolery, and satire!

WORD-UP:

The Age Of DINOSAURS Is over!

The computer and Internet was created by youngsters, who had NO EXPERIENCE in that area. But was resolute in pursuing that technology, which eventually revolutionalized Global Communication, and Global Economics.
Today, one cannot imagine a world without computers!

This is experience Accumulated "ON THE JOB."

Therefore, allowing Dinosaurs to determine the future course, leadership, and direction of this nation (USA), would be a very detrimental decision by the American electorate.

And finally, not having democratic represenatation and caucusing in Michigan, does not say much for those eligible and devoted democrats who live there. Nor does it auger well for the democratic candidates at the general elections in November-2008.

Un-solved Issues That Need To Be Addressed:



January 11-2008:

Un-solved Issues That Need To Be Addressed:

None of these presidential candidates have convincingly addressed the following:

* The Don't Ask-Don't Tell' Legislation:

* Lesbian & Gay-Same Sex Unions or Marriages.

* A woman's right to chose or Pro choice!

* A comprehensive Immigration Bill that would acommodate those who came into the US Legally, but became Illegal after overstaying their time here:

* And those who seek Amnesty, without VALID or SUBSTANTIVE proof for same:

* Medicare & Medicaid coverage for all levels of workers. Especially those who make less than 25,000 dollars annually:

* Securing our Mexican Border with the necessary technology that would ensure safety from illegal entry. And combatting DRUG TRAFFICKING from that border more effectively:

* And finally, none of these candidates made any mention of stopping the current procedure of removal/dismissal of any discovered or OUT Gay-Lesbian Or Homosexual male or female in the armed forces.

* PAPER BALLOTS voting is much more verifiable and aids voter legality. In the event of any discrepancy, they could be re-counted!

These are still very urgent issues and concerns that needs to be addressed.

Who Is Best Qualified To Be President?

WORD-UP:

Some people keep saying that Sen. Barack Obama have only served two years in Washington DC as a Senator. And that is not enough experience for someone who will be Commander In Chief, of The US Armed Services, and President of The United States.

George W. Bush was a governor of Texas, and is now completing his eight years in the White House. Yet with all of his experience, looking back on his decisions of ignoring Congress, ignoring the constitutional prescription for checks and balances, and arbitrarily infringing on the privacy of Americans, via e-mail and telephone surveillance .

And invading Iraq under a false pretext for war!
Why would Senator Barack Obama not be qualified for this position?

Emotion & Fear May Determine The Next US President Ellect:




January 08-2008:

Emotion & Fear May Determine Who Wins The Presidency In 2008:

Preface:
I have been following the prelude leading to the decision by those who chose to vote for George W. Bush, even after realizing that the reason/s for declaring war on Iraq was FALSE. Yet most Americans who voted to reinstate him, voted from a position of FEAR. Today, this same emotional position seem to influence Americans once again in these primaries.
Senator Barack Obama is perceived by the media as riding a wave or momentum, unheard of in the history of politicking in this country. With his philosophical rhetoric, he is able to move thousands, in all age groups, ethnic groups, and across political affiliations or parties.
Even the independents seem to be caught up in this surge of HOPE for CHANGE. Assuming that this is the reason why so many felt affinity with his ideals, literally cried at his public speeches, and felt within themselves something that they have not experienced with other political candidates currently.
This was felt generally in IOWA, and was transcended to New Hampshire, especially among the young or new voters, and independents generally. When Hillary Clinton had that public display of emotion on television, followed by her husband Bill Clinton's speech and ridicule of Senator Obama's questionable experiences, in relation to Hillary's. The table took a dramatic turn for Senator Obama, in terms of how these same voters, ( females mostly) saw him in terms of his rhetoric and ideals.
Somehow, Hillary's emotional outburst was able to cause an emotional deference for reason. Thus causing most of the younger and traditional older female voters, to identify with Hillary's weakness as a fellow woman, mother, and the only female candidate. Hillary's so-called human weakness, outburst, and pathos, in its entirety, was a major determinant in the shift from Barack Obama's camp to hers. And for this, she emerged as the new front runner in New Hampshire.
Let us follow this observation very closely in the up-coming primaries, just to see if this observation holds water for the future outcomes there.

AMNESTY Defined & Explained:


January 06-2008:

What Is AMNESTY?

Dictionary Definition:

A period during which offenders are exempt from punishment:

A warrant granting release from punishment for an offence:

The formal act of liberating someone:

Grant a pardon to (a group of people):

According to Rudolph Juliani. When a fine or some other punishment is meted out against some person/persons for illegal entry into another country, that is not amnesty!

Therefore, I believe if anyone is allowed to enter and remain, or take up residence in any country (other than the one he or she wants to be rescued from). And could supply written, oral, or implied PROOF or EVIDENCE to the courts of the asylum country, requesting amnesty.

And the Court allows that or those persons to enter and remain permanently in that country.

That would be LEGAL Amnesty.

My Predictions For The New Hampshire Primaries!


December 04-2005:

My Predictions For The New Hampshire Primaries!

I feel, based on Senator Barack Obama's performance and victory in IOWA, that he will get the lead again in New Hampshire. Barack Obama may not get a landslide support, but I predict that his lead will be very significant come next Tuesday's caucuses.

I also feel that Hillary Clinton & John Edwards will get a photo finish there, or almost the same amount of votes.. And possibly Hillary Clinton may come in Second Place over John Edwards.

After all, Hillary has been the favorite in that state for a long time!
Even though she has been wounded, she is not handicapped just yet. She will come back with a venous attack on all fronts.

So Barack & John, cover below the waistline. Because that is the place that she will focus on to disable both of you right now!
