Ignore the mainstream media and pundits: Hillary’s the Rasputin of Politics

Bernie Sanders, who took last night’s New Hampshire Primary by storm, grandly concludes that his primary victory shows people want ‘Real Change’. Hello? Bernie? The ‘Real Change’ people got from Obama back in 2008 is all but killing off their country.

The commonsense l conclusion with incoming Democrats is that one Democrat is EXACTLY the same as any and all of the others. Democrats under a variety of names promise cradle to grave “free stuff” for younger generations spoon-fed in public schools that socialism is the answer to all human ills. They promise a Utopia that never comes for anyone but high-handed members of the ruling class. Was Bernie trying for funny last night? Were it not for the fact that the immortal, one-of-a-kind George Burns may never pass this way again, Sanders peering at the world from his rheumy-eyed gaze could be a stand-up comedian for the kind of moth-eaten socialism he’s selling. "What the people here have said is that given the enormous crises facing our country, it is just too late for the same old, same old establishment politics and establishment economics," Sanders told supporters at his headquarters in Concord. (NDTV, Feb. 10, 2016) "The people want real change," he said to cheers and applause.

“The 74-year-old US senator from neighboring Vermont congratulated Clinton on her "vigorous" campaign, and said he hoped the pair would continue to "wage a strong issue-oriented campaign and bring new people into the political process." “But he said the overall goal needed to be to "unite the party" and keep Republicans from seizing the White House in 2016.”

And for the long-suffering masses therein lies the rub in a campaign waged to “bring new people into the political process”, “to keep Republicans from seizing the White House in 2016”. That’s what the Democrats do in killing off free enterprise with a corrosive socialism that fails wherever it gets through the door. Though some socialists cunningly hide under the cover of ‘progressives’, they are one and all the very same. “US networks all projected a big win for Sanders over the 68-year-old Clinton, who is seeking to become America's first female president.” (NDTV) All US networks did not just project a big win for Sanders, they cheered it on and even celebrated it. That’s because most scribes in the modern-day mainstream media are socialists at heart. Projections, which come from sources other than the mainstream media, are as dangerous as they are disingenuous. They put people back to sleep, assured that Hillary Clinton--2016’s biggest danger--is no more. They spread the news like wildfire that Hillary’s through; the FBI will catch up to her any day now; a doddering, 74-year-old Democrat competitor who took her down in New Hampshire has finished off her presidency. Over at the Dick Morris blog they’re doing a joyful rain dance. “Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is falling apart. Bernie Sanders soared in New Hampshire and now two polls have him tying her nationally. It’s a disaster. (The Hill, feb. 9, 2016)

“Now she’s called in the B Team — the cynical, paranoid and wacky twins Sidney Blumenthal and David Brock — to bail her out. And here comes the elderly, diminished and livid former President Bill Clinton to lead the duo’s frantic attacks on Sanders. “The attacks are rooted in nothing more than a list of dirty names they call the Vermont senator every day. Having found little in his record to attack, they have consulted the thesaurus to turn up ugly sounding accusations. “Sanders has a coherent, consistent and concise message: Incomes are stagnant because the economy is rigged by the top one-tenth of 1 percent that controls politics through massive campaign contributions. “Clinton has no competing message, just the charge that Sanders’s supporters are “sexist and vulgar.” Brock adds that one of Sanders’s ads was racist because it had too many white people in it. “

Wasn’t it Dick Morris who ‘projected’ that Mitt Romney would win “in a landslide”? “Sanders has a coherent, consistent and concise message”? Sanders is an old-school, dyed-in-the-wool socialist. Hillary Clinton is a socialist identifying as a ‘progressive’. The Democrats, who are committed to continuing Obama’s misery, will take either Sanders or Clinton to guarantee it. Period. For the sake of your children and grand children’s future, don’t buy into the mainstream media or any pundit’s projection that the Rasputin-like Hillary is through. Stay awake, stay alert and get out there to support the non-socialist, non-progressive candidate of your choosing any way that you can.
