"FALCON Party 2012, if we make it!"

We'll make it. I live near a very large rich folks' play area and have driven many Miss Daisies and their boys to their lodgings there. Those places get much of their revenues from corporates and favored employees of corporates. ...see them driving their $50,000-$150,000 vehicles every day. Trust me: the big push for Obama is coming from relatives of most of the political rich white folks. Most higher managers in corporates are related to many university instructors, highly paid government employees, and the like.

Such people only pick between politicians to choose our presidents based on the more trivial traits of politicians' personalities. In nomination campaigning, politicians are chosen by the same most influential constituents for each political party. After the general elections, the elected politicians do as they're told by our superiors while in office.

And that's the point. The elected politicians will do as they're told by the most influential constituents in both parties. Whether McCain or Obama, it will be government by the same clucking flocks of relatives of the wealthiest people: those with resources and much time on their hands.

I believe that we'll see more of the same policies either way. For example, almost all of the congressmen in both parties voted in favor of the VAWA. The VAWA is anti-family, unconstitutional and anti-Second-Amendment. Almost of members of congress in both parties have also voted against our national security for trade-related bills.

The most influential constituents have most recently pushed our elected politicians away from doing anything about Iran, because they don't want oil to go up. If oil goes way up, freight fuel will go out of sight. If freight fuel goes very high, the import regime will stop. Thus, domestic manufacturing would have to resume as it has in the past--a very difficult transition ahead.

There's another thing to consider. If the Democrats get into office, they won't have big revenues to work with due to the national deficit.

The way to "make it" is to save and store for the winter ahead. And we're going to see that winter regardless of which party fills most of the government offices. Globalism is going to crumble by way of balancing currencies (Asia getting richer and raising prices), oil shortages and/or high-intensity wars.
