In the good ole days, when liberals were actually “liberal,” focused upon individual liberty above all else, and Democrats were actually “democratic” instead of dictatorial elitists focused more on not counting votes than on letting every voice be heard, the words “democratic change” had a very different meaning.
The concept of democracy has since been hijacked. In the 2008 race for the White House, the Democrat candidate with the most popular support is Hillary Clinton. But somehow, the DNC nominee is Barack Hussein Obama. Not so long ago, this could not have been defined as democracy in action. It would have been rightfully referred to as the “hijacking” of a party nomination.
Democracy used to suggest a limited government representing the common interests of the people, who were otherwise free to pursue individual interests without government interference.
Today, democracy has been perverted to meet with definitions by Thomas Jefferson, “
A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.” – and Karl Marx, “
Democracy is the road to Socialism.”
In the 2000 election, it was Democrats who worked around the clock to make certain that the overseas military vote was NOT counted, using any technicality available in election law to disenfranchise as many military votes as possible. That’s because military votes always lean 8-1 Republican.
The endless recounts in Florida were the result of voter confusion over a butterfly styled ballot, which was designed by Florida FEC democrats, and had been used by democrats in many districts for years, with the sole intent of confusing voters. This time, it backfired and cost Democrats the White House. It confused Democrat voters instead of Republican voters this time.
Democrat ballot boxes have been stuffed with duplicate voters, illegal alien and felon voters and even dead voters for years now. But it is Democrats who scream election fraud anytime they lose an election, often asserting fraud before an election is even held, just to set the stage for legal challenges in case they happen to lose.
Meanwhile, it is Democrats who refused to count Florida or Michigan Democrat votes that would have given Hillary Clinton the party nomination in 2008. Barack Obama is the chosen one, not the elected one. Dirty Democrat tricks, used against Republican opponents for years, have now been turned on Democrat voters and many of those voters know it.
There is nothing democratic about today’s democrats, or their version of democracy
Instead, the
New Democrats and the
Democratic Socialists of America are in a fight to the finish for future control of the DNC. Old JFK Democrats are left out in the cold, represented by neither faction, and many of them will be voting for Republican John McCain this fall as a result.
The New Democrats are represented by Hillary Clinton and they portray themselves as the pro-American centrist faction of today’s Democrat Party. To half of Americans, they can only be defined as “centrists” on the basis of their desire for “central socialist power.” But they are a kinder-gentler, more patient version of Democratic Socialism.
The Democratic Socialists of America are represented by Barack Hussein Obama and they are the grassroots “Movement for Democratic Change,” the new buzz word title used to disguise the modern international march towards “socialism” via democratic processes, which is currently waging political warfare against societies from America to South Africa and Europe. These folks have a take-no-prisoners approach to advancing the socialist agenda.
Left out of the equation entirely, are old Jefferson/JFK Democrats
Old Democrats, who still believe in American sovereignty and security as JFK did, who still believe in individual liberty instead of ultimate central power in Washington DC, as Thomas Jefferson did, who still believe in real individual equal opportunity as Martin Luther King did, not the new racism present in the constant grab for free stuff that the MLK movement has since been perverted into, find themselves politically homeless today.
Of course, as timing would have it, old Republicans who still believe in all of the foundational American principles and values, find themselves in a similar position today. 70% voted against John McCain in the RNC primaries and still, McCain is their less than desirable nominee for the general election.
Bottom line, old Americans, both Republican and Democrat, find themselves outcasts in their own parties today and none of them are quite sure what to do about it.
As one of two men will be the next president of the United States, the likelihood falls in favor of the one who is at least qualified to be president, John McCain. Old Americans will likely default to the least dangerous option come November, regardless of past party loyalties.
But make no mistake, real Americans on both sides of the aisle are fed up with having undesirable candidates forced down their throats by party dictators and having to choose the lesser evil in every election. Something must change, and soon.
An election about Communism, Socialism and Socialism Light
America has been moving towards a state of socialism for more than sixty years now. Some would say almost a hundred years.
Conservatives are bright enough to recognize the reality that McCain represents only a Republican form of socialism light. But how many Clinton supporters recognize that they are supporting outright socialism under the Clinton banner, and how many Obama supporters understand that they are cheering on a man who has been a life long believer in absolute communist principles?
The 2008 election is a choice between socialism light with McCain and outright communism with a racist flare, with Obama. In that field, Hillary Clinton really is the “centrist” to the degree that she is indeed well left of McCain, but well right of Obama. It’s the only way she can be called a “centrist.”
The “NObama Ever” Movement
Old Democrats recognize what Obama represents, at least in terms of his complete lack of any qualifications. Some of them realize that even Clinton represents a less than American ideology as well and had planned on voting Republican all along.
In both cases, these particular Democrats feel much more comfortable with a truly left leaning Republican like McCain. The problem for McCain is that the conservative base of his party does not.
But the single largest factor in the 2008 election cycle may turn out to be the NObama Ever movement. Organizations are popping up all over the country (the web) in opposition to Obama.
A group calling themselves
PUMA (Party Unity My #) announces, “We are motivated to action by our shared belief that the current leadership of the Democratic National Committee has abrogated its responsibility to represent the interests of all democrats in all 50 states. They are misleading our party and aim to mislead our country into nominating an illegitimate candidate for president in 2008.” According to this group, that candidate is Barack Hussein Obama.
Many other organizations, like
Democrats for McCain,
NObama and
Stop-Obama are drawing large numbers of disenfranchised Democrats determined to protect their country from the likes of a President Barack Hussein Obama. Many Independents, Libertarians and Republicans are working for the defeat of the one Senator with a voting record left of even proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders, Obama, at sites like
Stop Barack Obama.
There has never been a more broad based effort to defeat a particular presidential candidate in American history, and rightfully so. Still, Obama’s press tells us he is leading the race???
A Democrat reader from Los Angeles named Patrice just wrote me this little message this morning, as I am writing this column…
“I cannot imagine a President who counts among his friends people like William Ayers, Tony Rezko, a mentor like Rev. Wright, sitting in that church for 20 years but lying to America on camera that he didn't known Wright held those beliefs...and expecting us to believe him??!!! What arrogance!! I knew right then and there I could never support this man. Then, of course, just days after his interview with the ABC reporter he gives that so-called speech on race and admits he knew. Duh… He really thinks he's one smart cookie, doesn't he? Smarter than his audience that he can use the smoke and mirrors to obfuscate his lies, his lack of accomplishments...”
Yet the outcome, is anything but predictable
I think it’s fair to say that across the board, Americans have never had two less desirable candidates to choose from in a presidential election. One of them will continue to move the nation leftward, but in a less threatening way. The other is a direct overt threat to everything America has ever been or was ever designed to be, and even worse, he is qualified only to be someone else’s puppet. The question is - who is Obama’s puppet master? Follow the money behind Obama and you will find his puppet master [s].
Obama has the wide-eyed idealistic but completely ill-equipped youth vote. He will undoubtedly carry the black vote on the basis of his skin color and promise to keep the gravy train rolling for the black half of his family tree. He will get a good portion of the Latino (illegal migrant) vote, with his promise to legalize illegal immigration and register 20-40 million illegal aliens as new Democrat voters. And last but not least, he will carry the Democratic Socialists of America vote.
Combined, with the lamestream press in his hip pocket, these groups alone will put him above 40% of the active voting population and anyone opposed, no matter their reasons, will be accused of “racism.” Can McCain carry more than 40% of the nation to stop him?
Are there enough “Americans” left in America to stop his well-funded and well-organized effort to complete the hijacking of democracy via democratic process? Can McCain block Obama’s road to the White House without the help and support of his party base?
Howard Dean was able to hijack the DNC nomination for Obama. But is the Obama Movement for Democratic Change powerful enough to hijack the general election from 2/3 of Americans who oppose everything Obama stands for? The answer to this question hinges on the answer to another question…
Are real Americans of all political affiliations as committed to actively stopping Obama, as international Democratic Socialists are to hijacking the election for Obama?
This election cycle is anything but predictable. But the outcome will be based upon the answer to that single question. Obama is opposed by the vast majority of Americans, on the basis of his anti-American beliefs and life-long affiliations, not the color of his skin.
But are these Americans as active as the Democratic Socialists who support Obama? This is what will decide the November election… Nothing else!
