Business. And these latter are preparing to replace our democracy with an oligarchy. They
are already more than half-way there.

I tend to think Trump is for Trump only - and no one else. After his term of office, it's not
likely that he will have established a long-lasting movement to continue his policies. The
Republican Establishment will move back in again.

the problems Trump has with the Republican Establishment. And both Establishments have been
losing large numbers of members. The Independents, on the other hand, are growing in size --
it has become larger than either of the two Major Parties. People finally are becoming fed up with
the feckless Establishments, and are leaving them. Enough is enough. This is also a part of the "math."

in the open, Cruz is more sly.

1. Success of Pres. Obama's idea depends on the Republicans' stated option of not
evaluating any candidate picked by him. So he picked a Right Winger for them
to "obstruct," and also show their stupidity. This is the situation we find ourselves
in right now.

2. Other Republicans, like George F. Will, are protesting this Republican option. McConnell
might let this arguing back and forth go on for a long enough time to make it look good,
and then finally "reluctantly" gives in. And voila, we'll continue to have a Right Wing
Supreme Court for the next 10 years!

If it should happen as described above, the Republicans will have outsmarted Obama. Obama was taking the greater risk. It's McConnell now who has the real freedom of choice.

Of course Obama could still change his mind, and appoint a Democrat, waiting till the last moment (when McConnell announces that the Senate would interview the appointee). Do you think Obama would do this last-mentioned? It would make HIM (Obama) look not too good!

debates. They didn't want to give Bernie more exposure. And DWS chose most of these debates
to take place on weekends and before holidays, so that as few people would see them as possible.
2. Attempt at cheating during vote counting at Polk County. Are you going to deny these?

because they know she is easier to beat come General Election day. The Dem. Establishment
want her to win the Primaries because they believe in maintaining the political status quo the
way she does. They don't want the change Bernie has promised to bring about. And both of
these institutions have no qualms about using all the dirty tricks they can think of to defeat
Bernie.

Change is the last thing both of them want, and change is exactly the thing that the vast
majority want. Hillary may win the Primaries because of dirty tricks, but she will lose in the
General Election. The majority of the American people will be voting against her.


If Hillary wins the Primaries, the gain will go to the Repubs., and the loss will be ours. I
would love it to be wrong about this, but I don't think I'm wrong.

as everything else) is played by the 90% Republican-owned (Corporate) news media. They are
probably the ones who came up with this line of reasoning, and they have been very successful
in having the people fooled, so that corporations can continue to rob the American people blind
with our present system of doing business.

Americans are an isolated people. Our closest neighbors are Mexico and Canada. For most people
both are too far away. I've lived many years in Europe. All one needs is to drive a couple of hours
and one is in a different country, with a different language and some difference in customs. Because
of this constant exposure to foreign influence, one can't help but become more open and accepting
of differences.

It would also be more difficult for people to become brain-washed news-wise, since one can listen
to and watch news from foreign countries just as easily as from one's own. It's not uncommon for
Europeans to speak a second or third language, which is quite uncommon here.

Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Genghis Kahn, Hitler. These were narcissistic individuals
who were quite open about wanting to, and did try to, control the world.

Then there are existing rumors of small groups of powerful individuals in several countries who
thought (perhaps are still thinking) of uniting for greater strength. This would better their
chances of taking over the world. "The New World Order" is the name given to one group.
However, they are so secretive that practically nothing is known about them. One can only
guess. No one is sure that they even exist at all.

Today we know that Multinational Business Corporations do exist and are doing very well financially
-- worldwide. Are they forming a group to rule and control the entire world, too? If so, this group
is considerably larger, their wealth is immense, and they also try to be secretive. So far, in the
USA they have already bought their way into political power -- bribing, corrupting, and pulling the
strings from behind the scenes. The Republican Party seems to be totally owned by them, and
a large portion of the Democratic Party also. Many members of both major parties have left,
because they sense that something going on in their parties are simply too wrong.

Some have described the above as a slow, creeping cancer that is destroying our nation. I
really wonder sometimes what's coming next. But something is coming to a head -- perhaps soon!

has her group of followers. To me, the two are so similar that they should join and become
one. My hope is that they will help our nation out of the gutter we are in, and bring real
Democracy back to America again. It will take time and effort, but it can be done.
