There are fundamental flaws in how American government operates today,
contrary to the Constitution and the vision of a representative republican form of governance.
I intend doing something about it: by educating and informing others who
are not even aware of the dangers.

Who Rules The Roost?




From Facebook:  

"Ron Le Blanc
This is one thing the Electoral College does - it keeps 146 counties from deciding who the president is rather than having the whole country make that decision.

This reminds us of one of the big differences between the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution. Under the Articles, each state received the same number of votes in Congress - one. Big state or little state, they all got one vote. Now this suited the small states just fine because it gave them a disproportionate say in the governing of the country. And that is the issue today in the argument of popular vote versus Electoral College. The former gives a few states a disproportionate say in the election of the president. Let's keep it so that the people of all the states have a say.

From Business Insider:

Using Census data, we've figured out that half of the United States population is clustered in just the 146 biggest counties out of over 3000.


Here's the map, with said counties shaded in. Below the map is the list of all the counties, so you can see if you live in one of them."



It is noteworthy to demonstrate how here in the State of Oregon, gerrymandering has given a few counties a marked advantage in representation to the detriment of the rest of the state 's counties being disenfranchised in the legislature in Salem as well as in Washington, DC.


This may be how it works in a democracy, however the USA is NOT a democracy, it is by constitutional mandate, a representative republic and guaranteed a republican form of governance.

Choose Wisely!




How did we get to where we are today in the united States of America?  What did We the People do to deserve such a state of crisis on so many levels?

We grew complacent and allowed others to take responsibility for ourselves and our Fellow Americans. We trusted in those we elected to be of higher moral fiber than ourselves. I include myself, so it's not about pointing fingers. We as a people have been our own worst enemy.  We have allowed government and the corporations that control that government to dictate to us, what we may or may not do, what products or services to buy, what rights we may have the privilege of purchasing for a fee, what lands we may or may not own or even dwell upon.  But most of all, parents trusted a system to educate their children instead of assuming that parental right and responsibility themselves.  Fixing the educational system is a long term solution and not the First Aid care this nation requires to survive.

The past eight years have been a disaster for so many American families and the privately-owned major media ignores the facts and instead paints such a wonderful picture that will be marked in history as the end of the American Dream.

I look upon the choices that the criminal political corporations have offered to us and I can only shake my head and wonder how we ever allowed it to get this far. Then I remember the memes about how Hitler rose to power, and all of the dictators before and since. And I see the common thread.

We the People are the common thread that both built and destroyed empires throughout our recorded history.  We become complacent and trusting of those we elect to represent us, and they are not always the honorable men and women we expect them to be. Perhaps some self reflecting is required to see the truth.

It is not secret that Hillary Rodham Clinton is a criminal. The media can play it down all they want, but the truth is right out there for anyone interested to see for themselves. Facts and truth do not require they be reported by a 'major' news source. All that is required is good journalism and fact sources. In this case, plenty of emails that have been revealed and many of which that have been reviewed by the FBI and Congress. Like Obama, Clinton is the result of complacency on our part and a failure to have the moral character to demand the same from those we elected.

I am and have always been a fan of Ron Paul, and supported his bids for the presidency in 2008 and 2012. And I supported Rand Paul this year praying that he would reconsider the suspension of his campaign. He has chosen to represent the People of Kentucky and I respect his choice and support his re-election to the Senate.

I reviewed the 'minor' party candidates, but there is no Ross Perot among them. While I consider myself a lowercase 'l' libertarian, I cannot support the Libertarian Party choice for a presidential candidate. And then that old election time mantra played out across the media and social networks, about voting for the lesser of two evils.

I look at accomplishments and character in the person that I was to represent me and to protect my rights. I look to see what they stand for now and then, and check to see if they have changed any, and whether it is for the better or for the worse.

Now that I am an Oregonian, this election in particular I view as the most significant in my lifetime. For us to succeed as a sovereign nation of free States and People, we most choose wisely. We must replace as many incumbents with new representation as possible, but we must replace them with people who understand the Constitution and are willing to abide by it.

Like the choice for President, my top choice for Governor did not make the cut. So I looked at the other candidates and decided that Bud Pierce is the nest choice for Oregon.  I am also supporting Art Robinson for Congress, and Mark Callahan for US Senator representing the State of Oregon.

The most difficult choice for me was selecting a President. I read and watched, I listened and learned, and when it was time to decide, I chose Donald J. Trump. That was a difficult choice at first and then it became crystal clear to me.




Some have called Trump a bully and yet those who have worked for him say otherwise. Some call him disrespectful to women and minorities. Ask Jennifer Hudson about that, or ask Haitian Americans about his regards to minorities.

Some will point to the fact that Donald Trump's success was guaranteed with a million dollar seed from his father. Many wealthy fathers seeded their sons (and daughters) and may also have had to bail them out of debt because of failures in business or their personal lives.  Trump built an empire. Some will point out the few bankruptcies of Trump endeavors but will fail to mention the better than 95% success rate.

The most important factor to me and probably the one that convinces me that Trump is the smart choice is his absolute love of America and the free market capitalism that made his success possible. He is a capitalist and not a socialist. He is a nationalist and not a globalist.

So when you fill out your ballots or go to the polls this election day, put the emotions and party politics aside, and choose based on ethics and morals, and the future of this nation.

The Farce Continues: And You Bought It All!



With only weeks away from the Iowa Caucuses, it is obvious that the Democrats are ignoring the possibility that Hillary Rodham Clinton may face criminal charges along with several other members of her staff. That is at present, only the remotest of possibilities, because the Department of Justice is more focused on those who slander Islam than doing the right thing by pressing charges against real criminals. So far, it seems that Loretta Lynch is nothing more than Eric Holder in a dress.

On the other side of the illusion of a two-party political system, the Republican establishment is doing its very best to lose every aware and freethinking independent voter they will need to secure a White House win in 2016.




The Independent Voter Network has been pushing for wide open primary elections but the People are not listening. Instead they are hypnotized by a narcissistic megalomaniac billionaire, who beats his own chest claiming He will make America great again.

America is great, it has great People, who have great minds and desire to succeed in life. They want a good home for their families, the ability to labor and reap the rewards, to pray has they wish, and to help others when they can. What they lack is good representation in the corrupted system of government that has replaced the constitutional representative Republic and the system of self-governance, with a legislative democracy in which the People not only have no voice, but are enslaved to its power by force.


In 2008 when Barack Obama was hardly known and Hillary Clinton appeared to be the Democratic nominee, the Republicans had several candidates vying for the nomination. Among them was the Gentleman from Texas, Congressman Ron Paul. The GOP ignored him and his popularity among the younger and independent voters, and instead nominated former Vietnam POW (and alleged fraternizer with the enemy) Arizona Senator John McCain. Again in 2012 the GOP with the help of George Soros funding on the left, cheated Dr. Ron Paul out of the nomination and offered up Mitt Romney along with his lying running-mate, the freshman Congressman Paul Ryan, who was endorsed by the Tea Party on the promise of no more raise in the debt ceiling. He lied.

The privately-owned major media also colluded to make Ron Paul seem like an outcast, and succeeded by not even mentioning him the polls. Which brings us around again to what is happening currently.


Fox Business and Fox News both have made it abundantly clear that they do not like Rand Paul. In many of their online polls, Rand Paul's name is rarely included, instead the choice is 'Other.' In those polls however, 'Other' tops all the candidates, demonstrating that the 'Other' is none other than Senator Dr. Rand Paul of Kentucky.

By moving two candidates onto the main stage (both of whom poll behind Senator Rand Paul), by splitting the candidates into two tiers, is in itself, a public demonstration of the power the media has in controlling what the People think by what they are shown. Apparently, most Americans are swallowing the bait and are once again going to allow the parties and their media whores to control their choices.

Trump is a Pathological Narcissist


The Esteemed Readers of Fix America may recall the post, The Hope For America: Know Yourself and Set Yourself Free in which world-renown psychiatrist Samuel Vaknin claims that Barack Obama is a pathological narcissist and a dangerous person. 


Recently, in an article written by Richard Larsen for the Conservative Daily News, Donald Trump is compared to the narcissistic Barack Obama, and in some cases, surpasses Obama in his arrogance and demeaning of those who dare disagree with him. The following is an excerpt from that article.

"And now we have the bombastic, egocentric real estate mogul from New York mirroring the self-absorption seemingly endemic with our 44th president. And he’s already setting some records with his self-congratulatory rhetoric.



“I’m really rich.” “I’m proud of my net worth.” “I’ve done an amazing job.” “I’m really proud of my success. I really am.” “I’m not doing that to brag because you know what? I don’t have to brag.” But he just can’t seem to help himself! And so Donald Trump self-adulated himself 257 times in his 45 minute presidential bid announcement speech last month. That even exceeded Obama’s 208 self-laudatory references in his 22 minute, 2007 presidential announcement. That’s pretty impressive when you can out-“narcissize” the Narcissist In Chief!

But aside from his egocentrism, the most glaring verity related to Trump’s presidential bid is that he doesn’t belong on the Republican ticket. He clearly is not a conservative, and probably aligns ideologically much more with Bernie Sanders than he does with any of the other 15 candidates on the Republican ticket.

Over the years, Trump has been a proponent for single-payer government funded healthcare, a socialistic step to the left of Obamacare. He’s been a supporter of abortion, has advocated an assault weapons ban, and has even floated the idea of forcing the rich to forfeit 14% of their total wealth to reduce the federal debt.

He has donated heavily to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s campaigns, and to the Clinton Foundation. And when he married his third wife in 2005, Bill and Hillary were on his guest list. And his financial support for Democrat House and Senate candidates has far eclipsed what he’s donated on GOP candidates.
According to public campaign disclosures, 21 of Trump’s 30 political donations have gone to liberal Democrats and political action committees. Only seven went to Republicans, and two went to Charlie Crist, who, like Trump, doesn’t seem to know which party he belongs to.


And in 2008, he sounded just like every other progressive in the nation, bemoaning George W. Bush’s presidency, when Trump alleged, “He was so incompetent, so bad, so evil.” Trump went on to call Bush “maybe the worst president in the history of this country.”"

Since Fix America first published in 2008, we have done so without partisanship, merely reporting and opining on the individual and not the political party they associate with. Ideologically, we have maintained a stance of constitutional and limited governance, regardless of the views of the candidates and those in office or appointed to positions of authority.

The Farce of Debate: Rand Paul Shines and Nobody Notices



I was so disappointed in the way the debate was handled, I really could not sleep last night. I tossed and turned thinking about how badly Rand Paul was treated, not just by Donald Trump, which is somewhat expected by now from the bully billionaire, but from the CNN panel of moderators who only allowed him to speak when his name was mentioned by the other nominees.

Pompous platitudes and innuendos abounded, while Dr. Paul was given the obligatory opportunity to defend himself slightly. It appeared that Trump at center stage was in complete control of the panel. 


I finally dragged myself out of bed at 11:00 AM to have some coffee, and ran across the following article, which perked me up a bit.

I present it in its entirety to the Esteemed Readers of this blog for their assessment.



"Donald Trump does not like Rand Paul.

In the weirdest non sequitur of a often-incoherent second Republican presidential debate, the billionaire front-runner for the party nomination declared, “Rand Paul shouldn’t even be on this stage. He’s number 11. He’s got 1 percent in the polls. There’s too many people onstage already.”

As he has been on so many points, Trump was entirely wrong on this one.

Paul distinguished himself with coherent questioning of mass incarceration, calls for criminal-justice reform, and aggressive referencing of the injustices that extend from a failed drug war. The senator from Kentucky had one of the best moments of the debate when, during a back-and-forth over Jeb Bush’s youthful inhaling of marijuana, Paul put things into perspective for the former Florida governor: “Kids who have privilege like you do don’t go to jail. But the poor kids in the inner city still go to jail.”

And when the debate turned to foreign policy, Paul made more sense than the rest of the runners combined.

“I’ve made my career as an opponent of the Iraq War,” declared the senator, who reminded the crowd that “The Iraq War backfired and did not help us.”

“I’m not sending our sons and our daughters back to Iraq.” —Rand Paul
Those lines did not earn Paul a lot of applause Wednesday night. This Grand Old Party does not well remember—nor respect—the wisdom of Dwight Eisenhower’s warnings about a military-industrial complex or the example of “old-right” Republicans who opposed military adventurism.

But Paul displayed a steady awareness of that history. His great contribution to the debate was to offer an alternative to the bombast and bluster that came Wednesday night from many of the other contenders—and that, frankly, comes on a regular basis from prominent figures who position themselves across the political spectrum.

The senator warned, “”If you want boots on the ground, and you want them to be our sons and daughters, you’ve got 14 other choices. There will always be a Bush or Clinton for you if you want to go back to war in Iraq.”

While others spoke of putting boots back on the ground in the Middle East, he dissented, saying, “The first war was a mistake and I am not sending our sons and daughters back to Iraq.”

Paul’s dissents extended beyond objections regarding the Iraq imbroglio—as was appropriate during the course of a debate that produced plenty of objectionable statements from the crowd of Republican front runners and pretenders.

Early in the evening, several of the contenders were stumbling over one another in express their readiness to rip up the Iran nuclear agreement, with Senator Ted Cruz trumping them all by promising, “If I am elected president, on the very first day in office, I will rip to shreds this catastrophic Iranian nuclear deal.”

A few minutes later, in a break from what New Jersey Governor Chris Christie referred to as “this childish back-and-forth” with Trump and Fiorina over who was the worse CEO, Fiorina said there would be no back-and-forth with the president of Russia. “Having met Vladimir Putin, I wouldn’t talk to him at all,” she announced. “We’ve talked way too much to him.”

This is where Paul really stepped up.

Noting the location—the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California—Paul said with regard to the “wouldn’t talk to him” line: “Well, think if Reagan had said that during the Cold War? We continued to talk with the Russians throughout the Cold War which [was a] much more significant [challenge than] where we are now.”

Paul continued:

Should we continue to talk with Iran? Yes. Should we cut up the [Iran nuclear] agreement immediately? That’s absurd. Wouldn’t you want to know if they complied? Now, I’m going to vote against the agreement because I don’t think there’s significant leverage, but it doesn’t mean that I would immediately not look at the agreement, and cut it up without looking to see if whether or not Iran has complied.

The same goes with China. I don’t think we need to be rash, I don’t think we need to be reckless, and I think we need to leave lines of communication open. Often we talk about whether we should be engaged in the world, or disengaged in the world, and I think this is an example of some who want to isolate us, actually, and not be engaged.

We do need to be engaged with Russia. It doesn’t mean we give them a free pass, or China a free pass, but, to be engaged, to continue to talk. We did throughout the Cold War, and it would be a big mistake not to do it here.

There was a similar moment when the question of intervention in Syria arose.

The Kentuckian said:

I think this gets to the point of wisdom on when to intervene and when we shouldn’t. Had we bombed Assad at the time, like President Obama wanted, and like Hillary Clinton wanted and many Republicans wanted, I think ISIS would be in Damascus today. I think ISIS would be in charge of Syria had we bombed Assad.

Sometimes both sides of the civil war are evil, and sometimes intervention sometimes makes us less safe. This is real the debate we have to have in the Middle East.

Every time we have toppled a secular dictator, we have gotten chaos, the rise of radical Islam, and we’re more at risk. So, I think we need to think before we act, and know most interventions, if not a lot of them in the Middle East, have actually backfired on us.

There are plenty of issues on which Rand Paul is wrong. He is not so steadily anti-war as his father, former congressman and 2012 presidential contender Ron Paul, or as “old-right” Republicans like North Carolina Congressman Walter Jones Jr.

There are plenty of things that Paul has said and done that merit skepticism, and opposition.

But the senator—and his dissenting views with regard to foreign policy—belonged on the main stage Wednesday night. Indeed, it was Rand Paul, not Donald Trump, who made Wednesday night’s gathering of Republican presidential contenders a debate. "

The Great Debate?



Fox News will host a GOP candidate debate this Thursday, August 6, 2015. The hype is no less than that of a heavy weight boxing match on pay-per-view. 

According to the spin, Donald Trump leads the field of contenders. Why? Is he that 'refreshing' that the public sees him as a serious Presidential hopeful? Allow me to elaborate why he cannot win.



In all of the polls it seems that most Republicans favor Trump over the rest of the field. Well the Republican voter will not decide the vote against the Democratic candidate. That was demonstrated in 2008 and again in 2012. It will be the Independent Voter who will decide the next President. 




In the early part of the year, the talking heads were saying that the GOP nominee should be a governor, because a governor has 'executive' experience. Then it was military experience that was needed to combat the terrorism threat against Americans. 

For me the choice comes down to one thing:  The Constitution. Freedom from government intervention in every aspect of my life. Adhering to the First Amendment and not forcing the will of government on religious beliefs. Obeying the Second Amendment instead of making excuses as to why the government must pass 'common sense' gun control laws. The latter is an oxymoron and only a moron uses that lame excuse to attempt to take rights of the People.

The (un) Affordable Care Act demonstrates how inept government involvement is. Most candidates want to 'fix' it, but that is not really possible. The real push is for complete control by the government. Donald Trump has been for 'universal health care' for decades, believes that abortion is about women's choice, and thinks that bully tactics against China will somehow fix the economic issues we face today.

Karl Rove (who should have been charged with high crimes and misdemeanors) said it best when he stated that this 'debate' is more like a campaign speech limited to about 8 minutes per candidate.

The panel of 'inquisitors' from Fox News will ask questions, some of which will be questions submitted by viewers. So far, none of the questions ask how they will accomplish anything, only what they will do if elected. Each will thump about Iran, immigration, abortion, blah, blah, blah.




The exceptions are the senators, Cruz, Paul, and Rubio. Each of them have voted for or against these issues, so we know where they stand. Each has demonstrated by their voting record where they stand.  In the blog post Last Stand:  Freedom or Serfdom I pointed out how only Rand Paul has voted along constitutional lines even when the majority succumbed to popular opinion.


There really isn't more than can be said. America stands to lose its sovereignty unless we elect a President who will follow the Constitution. Rand Paul does just that, always.

Hillary Gate Part II - From Watergate to Benghazi

Updated:  June 12, 20016

It turns out that Rand Paul was correct when he accused the Obama Administration of aiding the 'enemy' by sending guns to rebels (terrorists) in Syria from Benghazi. And of course former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton lied!



http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2015/05/breaking-rand-paul-was-right-obama-admin-was-running-guns-to-syria-hillary-lied-under-oath/



Updated:  December 25, 2015

In light of the seemingly imminent nomination of Hillary Rodham Clinton by the Democratic Party for President of the United States of America in 2016, I am compelled to list a number of facts about Mrs. Clinton that the privately-owned major media seems to ignore.


Starting with the attack on Americans in Benghazi, we have a woman who death seems to be the consequence in her wake. Four Americans were killed by terrorists in what some experts described as a well-planned, military-type strike, where the enemy knew of all of the strengths and weaknesses of the compound. It also is now well known that requests for additional security was denied by Mrs. Clinton's State Department several times and yet she testified before Congress that she had no knowledge of such requests or denials by her department. The head of the department has no knowledge of such requests made by the Ambassador? Is it not her State Department's duty to secure Americans around the world? 




When Hillary Clinton was campaigning against Barack Obama in 2008, both attended a 'secret' meeting of the 'Bilderberg Group' and after being the front-runner, she quickly faded and Obama won the nomination. At the time the secret meeting, the press were misled and not told beforehand but were instead held on the aircraft with Robert Gibbs. (See:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfgfH1ro6vs


And then Hillary accepts the post of Secretary of State from the man who defeated her for the presidency. But who is Hillary Rodham Clinton?

http://joeforamerica.com/2014/01/clinton-insider-truth-needs-told-hillary/ 


Whitewater and Vince Foster's death.

“Foster's death, occurring just six months into the new administration, is thought by some to have ended the optimism and remaining innocence of the White House staff.  White House chief-of-staff and childhood friend Mack McLarty said that "It was a deep cut. It clearly had a tremendous impact." Fellow White House Counsel Bernard Nussbaum felt that if Foster had lived, he would have helped resist the calls to appoint Independent Counsels, and the many investigations lumped under the Whitewater umbrella that occupied the administration and Clinton for the rest of his presidency, might not have happened. As it happened, how Hillary Clinton's chief of staff, Margaret Williams in particular handled Foster's files and documents immediately after his death became an issue of much investigation itself.“


Hit man for Hillary!
I wrote about Larry Nichols claims in a post on January 22. Please see: Former Hillary Associate Claims to Have Been Her Personal Hit Man   


Hillary and Watergate

Oh yes! Hillary was on the team after Nixon back then.
Her involvement with the Watergate investigation in which she withheld information to maintain a position which would have been proven unfounded by the data she hid.

Hillary and Watergate
FLASHBACK: HILLARY CLINTON FIRED FROM WATERGATE INVESTIGATION FOR ‘LYING, UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR’

In the link above it is clear that Hillary Rodham was from the start an unethical and immoral person.

From that post:

“Excerpted from EO-History:  The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, says Hillary’s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther – and goes much deeper – than anyone realizes.

Jerry Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, supervised the work of 27-year-old Hillary Rodham on the committee. Hillary got a job working on the investigation at the behest of her former law professor, Burke Marshall, who was also Sen. Ted Kennedy’s chief counsel in the Chappaquiddick affair. When the investigation was over, Zeifman fired Hillary from the committee staff and refused to give her a letter of recommendation – one of only three people who earned that dubious distinction in Zeifman’s 17-year career.

Why?
“Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

How could a 27-year-old House staff member do all that? She couldn't do it by herself, but Zeifman said she was one of several individuals – including Marshall, special counsel John Doar and senior associate special counsel (and future Clinton White House Counsel) Bernard Nussbaum – who engaged in a seemingly implausible scheme to deny Richard Nixon the right to counsel during the investigation.

Why would they want to do that? Because, according to Zeifman, they feared putting Watergate break-in mastermind E. Howard Hunt on the stand to be cross-examined by counsel to the president. Hunt, Zeifman said, had the goods on nefarious activities in the Kennedy Administration that would have made Watergate look like a day at the beach – including Kennedy’s purported complicity in the attempted assassination of Fidel Castro.”

She is NOT who most people think she is. She is not a person who respects the rule of law, in fact her actions have been contrary to the rule of law in every position and office she has held.

Final Countdown: Saving America With The Ballot


For too long now, Americans have assumed that whomever they elect for public office will protect their rights and represent their interests. What they fail to consider is that a political party has an agenda that is usually contrary to that of the People's.

Political parties are funded by special interest groups, political action committees (PACs), and by individual member dues and donations. The entire system is designed to produce power within the party and by consequence, eliminate independent candidates or third-party candidates from contending with the party's nominees. As a result, the representation of the People becomes incidental to the party platform, which of course is designed to benefit the party's largest donors.

In order that We the People are represented by our elected officials, we must be educated and informed in the duties of citizenship and self-governance. Just because we elect people to take responsibility in government does not negate the duty of the People to hold those we elect accountable for their actions, especially so when, those actions are contrary to the law and the will of the People.

The government says they want to fix the economy. The problems with the economy were created by government through mandates, laws, regulations, and taxes. Businesses were forced to close because they could not afford what government forced on them. Those that were able to, moved out of the United States to nations that offered better business environments. Result in America is loss of jobs and loss of tax revenue.

Government says it wants to fix education. It created the problem and now it wants us to trust that it can fix it with more money. It hasn't worked in over 100 years so what makes anyone think that it can be fixed by more money?


Government wants to fix health care and look at the mess they have created with that. What will it take before enough Americans realize that government is not the answer?

Every election, American voters go to the polls and vote for promises instead of reality. Neither party has improved the quality of life for Americans. Neither party has cut spending, in fact they have all increased it. And every day we hear and see more and more stories of corruption, fraud, intimidation, cover-ups, and lies. The very People we elected to protect us are in fact the very ones who are harming us in every aspect of our lives. And yet I still hear People speak of their Party as if it is all the fault of the other party.

In 2010, a change was made. People chose candidates who promised to represent the People and vote in Congress according to the will of the People and not the Party. Those who kept their promises were demonized by their own Party and the press. Those who buckled to the Party were rewarded as was Paul Ryan who, as a candidate promised to oppose any debt ceiling increase and then once elected, voted in favor of the increase and then justified his lies to all of America.

With wide-spread reports of voter fraud and intimidation, no outrage was reported in the media. With many reports of voter machine fixing by unbiased universities, these machines are still in use and being implemented in more districts. This will assure a vote outcome that will be determined by software control and not the actual votes of the People. The Esteemed Readers of this blog will recall several posts that described the fraud and the remedy.


If We the People are to make a difference in the restoration of America, it will have to b by those we choose to represent us. We can no longer allow party politics to divide us. We can no longer trust technology used in elections to reflect honesty and integrity. It is incumbent upon us all to verify that what we are told is in fact accurate and true.


What to do, what to do?

Who's Can is Getting Kicked?





So the news is that the Senate will pass a “clean” Continuing Resolution and a raise in the debt ceiling (borrow more money we don't have to fund programs we don't need)  The House will cave in to the demands of the dictator in the White House and he will stop hurting us. Oh and have to do this again in January 2014 because they have another sequester mandate that will kick in. In other words, another debt crisis and political wrangling for our entertainment purposes only. The media pundits refer to this as kicking the can down the road. Whose can?


Once again the party politics in Washington proves that We the People need to really step up and clean houses: The House of Representatives (who don't represent us,) The House of the Senate, and the White House. Our government is infested with criminals and we need to clean up the mess they left behind.


In order to make this happen we need to reform the nomination and election procedures to assure honesty and integrity. In Protecting the Vote is detailed information on how to assure that the balloting is kept transparent and accurate. Speed is secondary to the accuracy of the People's choices.


The method of getting nominated and on the ballot varies by state and by county so you will have do the research if you really want to make changes in who represents you in your state and in DC.


Seems to me that the can getting kicked is the American People's and I guess it doesn't hurt enough yet before you'll get off your can and take action. Or does the welfare state outnumber patriotic Americans?

A Boy Wants to be King!


Looking back over the last five years or so, I see a nation that trusts a child with the highest office in the land. I see a child who for all intent and purpose, is so wrapped up in himself that he really believes he can do anything he wants without question or consequence. The scary thing is, he has the most powerful weapons on the planet at his fingertips.

The United States of America is unique in its creation and the proper functions of the government and the People. The participation of the People was made inherent in the fact that the Constitution itself is a contract, between us and the government that is assembled as a result of that contract. 

What I see now is a nation that seems paralyzed by their own ignorance of facts, holding on to an illusion that electing Barack Hussein Obama was to show the world we have emerged into the sphere of humanity and we are truly no longer a racist nation. In the meantime we have a self-centered child leading us into one crisis after another, and he has no clue as to how to fix any of them. He has surrounded himself with childhood playmates who also possess the same delusions of grandeur and who are equally clueless as to what it will take to fix the problems we face. And they seek to destroy all who have the audacity to oppose their dangerous policies.

I do have a plan that will restore integrity and sanity to this once great country. We the People will not elect the candidates that the two major parties nominate. No, we will vet candidates who by the way they live their own lives, demonstrate they are aligned with true patriotism and constitutional law. And with their representation in all levels of government, we will repeal all the laws enacted that are clearly violations of constitution limits. We will reduce spending and taxes so that businesses can become profitable and the taxes on their profits will be enough to sustain a trim national government. Those taxes will be reduced when we have a lean federal government.

It will mean that most Americans will have to take action themselves. It will mean that we cannot just allow someone we elect the trust that they will serve our best interests, unless we perform due diligence and hold them accountable from the start. And when they complete their terms of service, they will return to their previous businesses and jobs, knowing they performed a service to their community, state and/or nation. That it how it was designed to be, without career politicians living off of the tax payers to whom they were elected to serve.

In the coming days and weeks, it is apparent that our narcissistic Commander-in-Chief must be held accountable for his actions, or more precisely, his lack of action when it was required to save American lives. He must be held accountable for dereliction of duty in not taking immediate steps to defend Ambassador Stevens and his staff. And most of all, those who we have elected to office, who swore oaths to defend and protect the Constitution, must impeach this childish President and all those who have been supporting him in deceiving the American people with behavior that is criminal in their implications and deadly in their results. Don't just assume that there are those in Congress who will do the right thing. Demand it!

Voting Reform




There are three primary areas to consider when looking at how our vote is made to count. It was explained in detail how to insure the integrity of the vote in my post Protecting The Vote. But there are two more points to make clear.



The second is to have an informed electorate. The voters need not only know the name(s) of the candidates and their party affiliations, but more importantly, they must also know what the candidates stands for. What has the candidate accomplished in the past in private, public, and professional life?  Are they willing to vote for the simple majority of the people they represent instead of their own or party line issues or candidates?  If they won't cast the vote of the simple majority, it is high time to find someone who will and find someone else to represent the Voting citizens.



The third is you must increase the number of eligible voters so that at least a simple majority of the people are represented. If only twenty percent of the eligible voters actually vote, then the vote is representing the minority of the people who will be represented.



It should be made mandatory that all citizens, on reaching the age of eligibility, must vote in every election or they forfeit their citizenship until they vote again. They will then be required to prove their citizenship by a state certified copy of their birth certificate.  A Birth certificate and a valid photo identification, such as a driver’s license, will be required in order to vote. All required documents will be available to all US citizens at no cost. This could be accomplished by the states debiting the state tax board accounts or IRS accounts of voters. It ten would cost the voters nothing more than the time to fill out a form to receive their birth certificate in order to obtain, with appropriate testing, a driver's license.


The only way to take back the vote from the electronic machines that control the election is to start with changing state laws. The machine that controls the illusion of a two-party system has to be broken up into little pieces and scattered like ashes in the soil. In a nation as diverse as we are, we need many parties or coalitions to represent US Citizens.



We must be more tolerant of others while protecting the rights of all citizens and those who can be adversely affected by such differences in ideology. A culture that practices human sacrifice can certainly have an adverse affect on their coalition, but if all of their sacrifices are obtained from within their own ranks, surely they will soon discover that ending the practice will prevent their extinction.


Maybe if politicians were held to account to higher standards they too will face extinction if they cannot change their corrupt ways.
