How to Vote

And Not be an Idiot

 

This election is going to change America. No matter whom we choose. I want to make sure that anyone who can vote does. It is our right and a duty to vote, but I want to make sure you vote smart. I don’t want anyone to vote just based on a fancy campaign. 

1. Don’t vote based on looks or how the candidate dresses. I have heard stories and knew of people that voted just because the person looked sincere, was eloquent, or dressed professionally.
2. Don’t always vote for party candidates. Just because your candidate is a Democrat or Republican doesn’t mean you have to vote for him/her. Just because I am a conservative doesn’t mean I always have to vote Republican and vise-versa for Democrats. Many in my family are registered Democrats but vote Republican. Vote for the candidate that matches the issues that you hold dear.
3. If you know nothing of a candidate, DON’T VOTE FOR THEM! There is nothing worse then voting for someone and know nothing about their personal life or stance on issues. Voting blindly is a sure-fire way to get a government that, We the People, never wanted.
4. Don’t vote by flipping a coin or doing ‘inny-minny-miney-moe’. Voting is just too important to leave to chance. Don’t be stupid. If you don’t know anything about a candidate or if you know nothing anything about the issues. Just don’t vote at all.
5. Follow your own beliefs! Not the beliefs that the candidates want you to follow. As cliché as this may sound. Follow your own heart. Because in the end, you know what’s best for you. Not the candidates, so vote for the person that matches closely to your ideals.
6. Vote for the issues, not the campaign! Sure Obama’s campaign is nice and flashy, but for all we know it could be superficial. Remember a good campaign means nothing. A campaign doesn’t help one be president or fix our economic problem. A campaign just proves that a candidate can sell himself to the American people.
7. Think! Ask yourself one question. Will this candidate really help America? Obama’s and McCain’s campaigns are promising everything, but it doesn’t mean that either campaign will live up to its promises. Bush promised in 2000 that he was against Bill Clinton’s military intervention policy. In the 90s Bill Clinton ran on a platform for Universal Healthcare. Neither president stuck with their promises.
8. IT IS YOUR VOTE. Not Obama’s, not McCain’s, not the media’s, not the neighbors, nor your friends. It is yours and yours alone.
9. Go with your gut feeling. Most of the time it won’t let you down. If you feel uneasy about a candidate chances are that you will not agree with his polices. Just because the media speaks highly or poorly of a candidate shouldn’t change your mind. If you get uneasy by Obama’s religious, radical, or vague past, then don’t vote for him! Likewise with McCain/Palin’s pasts.
10. Lastly, YOUR VOTE MATTERS!

 It will be history making election year. Don’t miss out!

Iran for Barack Obama

 Iran for Obama!

Those people in Iran love the USA!!

Islamic-Fascism and militant socialism are gridding their axes, in preparation for a future conflict with American ideals. This is the time to stand strong and untied. The United States of America must be ready and willing to deal with all those who want to cause harm. IN this era we are no longer fighting for land, but our very way of life.

As I watch the political quagmire boil and fester. I cannot help but be disgusted. I find myself wondering. Are these candidates really what we need? I know that I am leaning toward John McCain, but he never came close to the candidate I really wanted. I would love to vote for Bob Barr, yet, in the US elections, voting for a third party candidate is like throwing away your vote. Then there is Barack Obama. Now if you have been reading this blog for awhile you should know. I am not a big fan of Barack Obama, and the article above, reaffirms my view on Obama.

Iran’s parliament speaker, Ali Larijani, said that they support Barack Obama. His reason is that he finds Obama ‘flexible and rational’. Great, not only is Barack Obama a Marxist, but now has the backing and support of one the world’s brutal nations. Was it not Iran whose revolutionary guard helped sneak insurgent fighters and weapons into Iraq, with the intention to kill US soldiers? Is it not Iran that wants Israel wiped off the face of the earth? This is the country that enjoys burning and stomping on the US flag, and the leaders and people of Iran chant “death to America!” Larijani calls Barack Obama ‘flexible’ or in other terms weak and easily manipulated.

The USA needs a president that will not be another nation’s naïve puppet.  We need a strong president that is not flexible. The question is this. Will Obama be a pawn in the great game of international politics? I know that Barack’s running mate, Joe Biden, believes that Obama will have a tough time, yet, I heard some people say, Barack will have many advisers on foreign policy, so he doesn’t need to have experience. Having advisers doesn’t mean jack. If other countries think that you are weak, they will exploit that weakness. Obama does not have any real world foreign policy experience. Remember this is the guy at one moment wanted undivided Israeli country and the next supported a two-state option to deal with the Israel-Palestine problem.

My view is that we need a president that does have foreign policy skills. Our next president must rely on his own skills not those of advisers. In this world of Islamic-Fascism and Militant Socialism, we need to have a president that will not be flexible to the world dictators. We need a president that will not talk or bend to the will of tyrants. We cannot afford to have a president that will follow the ideals of appeasement like Neville Chamberlain and his famous 1938 quote ‘Peace in Our Time’(a year later WWII started). Sadly, I see Barack Obama, not being strong enough or independent enough for our nation and global politics. I see Obama as following the failed ideologies of Appeasement and Socialism.

1860 election and 2008 election. Something in common?

“A house divided against itself cannot stand.”- Abraham Lincoln

When honest Abe said those words back in 1858 the USA was a very different place indeed. The Southern States had slavery while the North was abolished slavery. It was just a matter of time before these two very different ideologies would clash against each other. It was on December 20^th 1860 when South Carolina left the Union, and in the following month of January, the rest of the south left the Union. The United States of America was about to experience the brutality of the deadliest war in US history.

Fast-forward to 2008 and there is something (though not as severe) similar to the events of the 1860s. In our nation there are two very different ideologies that are clashing with each other. On one hand there is Progressivism (aka Liberalism) and on the other side, is Conservatism. Theses two ideologies have been at odds for years; however, our political system has managed to keep both sides satisfied and able to co-exist, to a point.

Recently there has been a shift from uneasy relationship to all out hostility. In the near past, the polarization of American politics became obvious. In Bush’s last State of the Union, one could clearly see the complete lack of harmony between the Republicans and Democrats. Bush would mention, what one would consider, a ‘conservative ideal’ like privatization of Social Security. The Republicans would stand and applaud, but the Democrats would sit silently. It is true that this has happened before but something isn’t right.

Today we have two presidential tickets that are very different from each other. The Dems have Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Obama is an advocate of Socialism (spreading the wealth), increase of centralized government, and for an absolute change of fundamental American beliefs. It is amazing how far the Democrats have leaned toward the left in recent times. Their beliefs now are in conflict on what our nation was founded on. Our nation was funded on the individual pursuit of happiness. The Constitution and its writers never liked the idea of a government deeply involved in the person’s life; however, this fundamental American ideal at odds with Obama’s Marxist views for America.  

There are millions of Americans that support the Constitution. Many are willing to fight for its ideals. In fact there are many in our armed forces that are fighting for it, yet this election has brought out people who could care less about our Constitution. There are people who are willing to blindly support any leader that promises something for free (national healthcare, welfare, etc…) and will hate and despise those who disagree.

It is two weeks away from election. In two weeks an election will revolutionize our nation. Will it stay move toward the right or drastically toward the left. The choice is simple, fight for the Constitution and vote for the right of the individual.

Because nobody wants to repeat the events of the 1860s.

Equality! The Leftist Buzz Word.

What is the one ideal that liberals and Osama, I mean, Obama want? They want a government will take care of the people. Isn’t that such a wonderful idea! Imagine having the government taking care of all people! What a life that would be. There would be no poverty, no racism, no sexism, pure equality, everyone would be rich and well off, everyone would have a house, and there would be a chicken in every pot.

I can see some powerful world leaders singing the same tune, for example, Hitler, Stalin, Franco, and Ho Chi Man. All of those leaders wanted the government to take care of the people. Just like how Obama wants to have the government take care of you. Each of those tyrants ran with the same idea. They wanted to help the poor; they wanted to make the rich pay for their abuse of the worker and they wanted to make everybody equal.

I still don’t understand why people want equality so bad. People have this idea that one day. That people can and will be equal. There will be no wars, or conflicts. We can all be just equal. I know John Lennon sung about equality in his song “imagine” and if that song came true, what a world it would be. Sadly, we humans are not perfect; we humans are unable to achieve this type of society. People will naturally have biases toward other people. Prejudice will always exist, no matter what. We humans will have our emotions of greed, lust, love, sadness, and hate. No matter how much the government tries it will not be able to make everyone 100% equal. Even if the government gave everybody the same house, same car, same job, same pay, and forced them to buy the same items, there will still be inequality. Some people will just naturally be born with better looks, a higher IQ, a great sense of humor, and so on. With all those variables how can a government make people equal if people are born unequal?  The simple answer is that they cannot. No matter how hard a government or a person tries, people will always be unequal. So why do libs, democrats, Marxist, commies, socialist, or the ‘left’, try to make every one equal?

Simple if they can feed you this equality crap, then they can make you vote for them. When you vote for them, you give the left more power. Give the left more power; they will naturally remove more freedoms in the name of equality and common good. Then before you know it, you have no freedoms, have no incentive to succeed (because the government gives you everything) and you are no longer a person, but a simple drone, and the people that fed you that equality crap will have all the power.

Sometimes equality isn’t all what it cracked up to be. If you want equality go with capitalism. Why? If a person gave two people with the same background, 10,000 dollars each, and told them to start a business. Those two people would have the same chance of succeeding or failing. What’s more equal then that? In this upcoming election remember to vote for a capitalist, not Comrade Obama.

“You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer. You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men’s initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.”

McCain in Touch with Reality, Obama Not

 

 McCain calls Obama insensitive to poor people.

My View:

Wow. McCain lashed out today saying that Barack Obama is insensitive to the poor. Is this true? Is Obama the man of change and hope, really insensitive to the poor? First of all, both of these candidates are out of touch with the common American. McCain flies in his wife’s private jet, while Obama graduated from Harvard Law School. Am I saying that being from Harvard puts somebody out of touch? Yeah it does with 55k per semester tuition; the average American can not afford that. Both McCain and Obama do not know the true plight of Americans. Why? Cause the salary of a senator is $169,300 per year! McCain had a wife that is millionaire. Obama said that he himself comes from a meager single-mother background. It’s true, but he did managed go to a Private Preparatory school in Hawaii, which its current tuition, as of 2008, is $15,725 per school year. I don’t know about all of you, but these guys just don’t seem like your average American citizen.

After reading the article, McCain plans to extend the Bush’s tax cuts, and suspend the tax on fuel during the summer. McCain then launched an attack against Obama:

“I noticed again today that Sen. Obama repeated his opposition to giving low-income Americans a tax break, a little bit of relief so they can travel a little further and a little longer, and maybe have a little bit of money left over to enjoy some other things in their lives… Obviously Sen. Obama does not understand that this would be a nice thing for Americans, and the special interests should not be dictating this policy”

Don’t get me wrong, tax reductions are good and not paying extra taxes on gas is better, with oil at $3.60 across the nation. After watching the debate in Pennsylvania, and how Obama wants to increase the capital gains tax (an increase will effect 100 million Americans) up to 20 percent. Does this mean I believe McCain will be a great and wonderful leader of the free world? No, I don’t like him, in fact, I like none of them. McCain, in my opinion is not really a true Republican, he is a flip-flop. During his time in congress he snuggled up with Democrats rather then the Republicans. The one true thing I do respect about McCain is that he is truly a war hero, and that he was a POW back in Vietnam, because of that I believe he has guts to protect us; however, on any other issue, he is a loss cause and Obama has the upper hand.

This article stands out because, simply, that I hate it when politicians say they are watching out for the little guy or they know how we ‘feel’. People it is bull-crap! Politicians have no idea what it is like to live paycheck to paycheck, be in financial ruin, bankrupt, and/or be out of a job. Most of them inherit a fat bank account or have mommy and daddy have a multi-billion dollar corporation.

Just remember folks: Vote with your head, not with the advertisement
