The USA Presidential Elections 2012
Election Euthenics-2012 depicts in images Election Euthenics and electioneering. Election as Euthenics must be for the welfare of the whole country as opposed to the welfare of the candidate, his or her megalo-maniacal ego, his party, his backers and other innumerable selfish agenda of the candidate's. If a party is not for 100% of the country, it cannot be deemed a National Party. Toeing the party line is not for the good of the country. Both parties should collaborate and cooperate to pass legislation to move the whole country forward; just pushing one segment ahead of other segments as the case is with the Republican Party is deleterious to the health of the nation. Republican politics are obstructive. They are opposed to the teachings of Jesus Christ. If a muscle builder keeps exercising his right hand and leaves the rest of the body and limbs alone, that person has a monstrous look and the rest of the body has to carry the burden of the overdeveloped right arm. A balance is necessary for a proportionate development of the nation. There is a glimmer of hope emanating from Republican candidates for president. It is not enough to take the nation forward.
This is an intellectual exercise for the mind and does not cast any aspersions on anyone including the Republicans.
November 25, 2011: Jesus Christ has made statements which are easily and truly construed as anti-republican. This missive just reflects His ideas. The opinions expressed here are already floating in the cyberspace, which I captured and put on these pages.
By and large, the media and the politicians do not criticize the voting public, sort of Sacred Bos primigenius. But the criticisms are leveled against the public in couched words and phrases. One has to discern and understand what is meant. Here is the rendition of that essence.
The Presidential Election is a year away (Nov, 2011). The fever is raging; there are the few Gems, the Gravels, the Hopefuls, the Wannabes, the Clowns, the Knaves, the Know-nothings.... To choose one among them to lead the USA (and indeed the world) is a difficult job. The voting public, short on memory and long on cosmetics, legacies, preconceived ideas and prejudices failed in the past to elect the right candidate for the president, plunging the country into debt and disaster. Here is a simple fact based on finances. Majority of people must be Democrats for the simple reason they don't belong to the 1% of the population branded the Super-rich, who are not at proximate fault for our woes (and yet Jesus Christ casts a curse on them). One does not become rich by name-dropping. The Have-Nots but wannabe Have-Lots have this unrealistic romantic delusion, they belong to the Republican party, though the republican elite treat the discards with disdain and discomfort. The true republicans know how to weed out the rag from the rich. The republican masses with a put-on attitude of a Billionaire and no real means to a life of luxury are fooling themselves and live in castles in the air. How many of these people have been invited to duel, dine or rub shoulders with millionaires and billionaires or for an outing on the golf course? The republican delusion of the middle income people is regrettable indeed. The elected republican officials, who thriving on this mass delusion, snap to attention and are ready to serve the one millionaire or billionaire, who cast only one vote but contributed tons of money to the Super PAC. How many times the voting public languish for a real solution from the legislators, while they (the legislators) languish for a call from a millionaire or billionaire, who receives unsolicited legal bribery in the form of tax breaks at people's expense. The Super-Rich pay 15% tax, 'not a dollar more and not a dollar less', while everybody else pays more than twice that. When questioned on this lack of sharing the tax burden fairly, the republicans immediately invoke their favorite slogan Class Warfare. The Super-Rich create jobs: Is it a myth or reality? Recent studies indicate that the Government created more jobs than the Super-Rich. Some Super-Rich with compunctions and a sense of public weal propose that everyone is taxed equally. The notion that Corporations are people diminishes the worth of the individual voter because Corporations carry more financial clout than John Q. Public. They can pack the Super PACs with many buckets of duckets.
January-February 2012. There are destructive internecine fights among the republican candidates. Mitt is Obama Lite or small food stamp, while the President is the Big Food Stamp. It was under the republican administration, Grand Food Stamp reigned supreme.
During the election time, all candidates vie with each other to be in the forefront for the immigrant causes esp. the Latinos for obvious reasons.
I see a comedic twist, when the republicans question the citizenship status of President Obama. They call the President a Kenyan because he was born of a Kenya-born economist. On that score, is Mitt Romney a Mexican because he was born in Detroit of a Mexican-born George Romney? Should he be picking produce (the objectionable view) or have the title of the First Hispanic President? In a way, Mitt is wooing the Latinos for their votes, asserting his pro-immigrant beliefs. Romney is the most likable of all the republican candidates. There is an unintended disconnect between his thought and speech: I don't care about the poor. He says things that fit the time and place, which is open to misinterpretation. Ron Paul would rather trade with the enemy than wage a war. Ron needs a motorized mountain gear to go up the slippery slopes to Nomination. Mitt ascends the slopes with big push from below by Buckets of Duckets from Super PACs. Newt lives by his words and dies by his words in this election season. Mitt will scale the mountain to the base camp of Convention Point but will fail to reach the mountain top: the White House. Romney would fall into the frozen yawning debate crevasses between Convention Point and the Top of the Mountain--White House.
