Our liberal and reporting media Americans can be such a bunch of losers!

This group, thank goodness is a minority of Americans and more importantly, a minority of voting Americans. That we may have to listen to them is just a fact of life these days, but we certainly don’t have to pay attention to them. Most Americans are willing to fight for what they believe in, and the time is upon us now. Most appalling to many Americans is the proclivity for today’s soothsayers, called hired pollsters, to tell us what we think and what we should do, rather than regular Americans using their own judgments and experiences. Slightly less appalling is that some minority of Americans actually buy this soothsayer trash, often disguised as intellectualism amplified by peer pressure similar to what many experienced in high school, where the cool people dominated the world of the high school. And then they and we graduated and entered the real world.

America, its people, and its government means to include voting, are more important than any fellow Americans means to circumvent our Constitution and our laws. This idea is unique in the world, and so special. Those who explain away our immigration trends as economic in nature are probably missing part of why? They are probably part of this minority of Americans.

Today a light bulb went on. The convergence of the detractors of the Iraq surge telling America to quit, and the minority of liberal and media intelligentsia telling Hillary Clinton to quit provided the generator of the light bulb’s electricity that was simply appalling. This minority of Americans are either: a bunch of losers who wilt in times of friction and conflict; or are so simply motivated to their cause that any soothsayer prediction should be exploited to the detriment of our Country and free debate, surrender to a cause being the prime example.

So the purpose of this post is to suggest American voters vote their judgments and experiences, and ignore this loser bunch of Americans. One old adage is as true now as it was decades ago: Never believe anything you hear, and only half of what you see.

This may be said another way. The old adage that only 10% of an iceberg is above the surface may be appropriate in 2008. Much of America in 2008 is this underlying group of Americans that don’t respond as well to the old time soothsayers who work the part of the iceberg that is more apparent and on top. Propaganda and modern marketing methods may not be as effective as advertised if it means Americans and their kids may suffer.

Said another way, America has suffered through a recent decades long period of poor national leaders more interested in their own politics, their own constituencies, their own egos, and even youth educational idealism, or their own way to mine our national wealth. Perhaps the federal elections in 2008 will be more of the same, but hopefully the 90% of the iceberg types below the surface will begin to assert themselves.

Many also believe we Americans must accept those who volunteer to go through the terrible gauntlet of their national party rules, with one being our future President.

Many believe it is not too late for 2008. We Americans still can pick a federal President that is better than the choices we are offered today.

A key point is that the present way of running for President is run by our two national parties, and they have never been part of our Constitution, and never will be, while they are in charge, today. For the storm the Bastille types, of which I count myself one, there has got to be a better way. For the more Churchill types, of which I also count myself one, democracy may not be great, but it is greater than the alternatives. My balance is that we Americans deserve, and will need, better than those running for President today.

Being dictated to by a bunch of losers is too appalling to accept in 2008.

I concur. America deserves much better than the career politicians that call themselves leaders. Our government has been stolen from the people by the same politicians that proclaim to lead a government for the people.
