What Today’s American Politics Tells Us
Canada Free Press ^ | 04/19/15 | Al Caruba

America is at risk of becoming a place where our founding morals, values, and traditions are being cast aside

There is something very disquieting occurring in American politics today. Most dramatically, the Democratic Party is offering a candidate who is a moral cesspool filled with lies and a history of behavior that would render anyone unthinkable for the highest office in the land. Something is very wrong when Hillary Clinton is, at this point, the only candidate for President the Democrats will be able to vote for and, worse, an estimated 47% of them will vote for her.

What we are witnessing is a Democratic Party that has been debauched by decades of socialism, an economic and political system that has failed everywhere it was implemented.

By contrast, what is being largely overlooked is the wealth of political talent—Rubio, Walker, Paul, et al—-that the Republican Party has to offer as an alternative. Instead of obsessing over the different aspects of its candidates, we should be celebrating the fact that voters will be able to choose someone of real merit for whom to vote.

“Instead of obsessing over the different aspects of its candidates, we should be celebrating the fact that voters will be able to choose someone of real merit for whom to vote.”

Problem is no matter how many ‘choices’ the electorate has, the majority will vote based on something other than what’s relevant. Things like the race, gender, how well they BS, etc.. Sure, the system’s broken, but so is the voter.

Seems like a staged reality show to me.

Look at Maslow’s Hierarchy Of Needs.

The Democrats understand and use it.

The Republicans don’t have a clue.

What the Democrats understand is that with Maslow’s Hierarchy,

IT DOESN’T MATTER WHERE YOU ACTUALLY ARE.

What matters is,

WHERE YOU THINK YOU ARE AND IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT GOING BACKWARDS.

If obama can get a second term, Hillary can be elected.
