In the 1930s, someone heard Adolph Hitler being screamed at behind closed doors by the head of the German Central Bank, Hjalmar Horace Greeley Schacht. Who could get away with screaming at Hitler and live?
Someone fronting from a group so powerful, it could have ordered that Hitler be made into Hoffaburger. It turns out that when Hitler first assumed power, he went with hat in hand to make his case to the heads of German industry that his gangster militias could deliver labor peace.
The big talking heads are mum about all this, so let this little talking head provoke you to wonder about it yourself.
This arrangement was to become upended when Hitler's prodigious rhetorical power, amplified by the then-new media of broadcast radio and public address systems, moved him from maitre d'hotel to guest of honor at the devil's banquet. Schacht was interred in Dachau but mysteriously survived to found a post-war Dusseldorf bank.
Above conventional distinctions of "left" and "right", the power coalitions which sponsor political front-men, must account for the inner character and predicted future actions of those they entrust to implement their dictates.
This core principle must be centrally involved with Hillary Clinton's astonishing fall from grace in the "liberal" media, led by the flagship NY Times. The big talking heads are mum about all this, so let this little talking head provoke you to wonder about it yourself.
After all the posturing is dispensed with, George Soros gets along just fine along the bottom line with the Koch Brothers.
Nothing like the 1933 overthrow of the House of Morgan by the House of Rockefeller, with the Glass-Steagall Act, is currently underway; the big fish aren't currently jostling one another to see who will eat whom.
So the hidden tectonic rumblings to account for Hillary's lightning fall to earth, must involve the recognition that she didn't know her own limits and had to be de-fanged.
People knew that the old Soviet press was riddled with lies, Loz' rather than Pravda, but they still paid attention to subtle currents in the fabric of factual inaccuracies, to detect the rise and fall of various power-wielding personalities.
Not so here. Fat and if not happy American media consumers, Joe People Magazine and Sally Entertainment Tonight, have no clue about what's going on in the penthouses of power.
But as the servants manning the levers of power slowly adjust their comfort level downward, they will dodge and sway like schools of fish or flocks of birds reacting instinctually but unknowingly to the movement of the predators among them.
There's no question about who will be in charge, it's only a matter of whether any of the high servants will be allowed to overcome their masters.
In the very first line, where you wrote “Adolph,” I almost quit reading, pizza man. But when you said that fellow was interred and survived, you lost me.
Too bad, because you may have had an interesting point to make.
Yes, I am a grammar nazi, with the spelling squadron.
You already know the answer to this question... we're not built like that. It's probably the reason some of us keep trying to reach across the aisle (to our own detriment).
But 22 does NOT make anyone “ineligible to the office”.
It makes them ineligible to be ELECTED.
“Running for President” does not exist in the Constitution.
She’s said she was going to spend $2.5 billion. The regular consultants are hoping to get their cut.
Hmm ...that sound very probable.
Everyime she goes out with a task she comes back looking like she’s been through a wood chipper. People automatically realize she’s going to have to retreat and scrape her face off the flloor and spend months at the plastic surgeon to bring her back to an acceptable state.
This has happened several times now.
Can we as a nation allow her to rejuvenate periodically?
Right now she has a smile, credible or not ... but i’ll bet it fades pretty seriously just as the election season winds down.
Not true. Consider the last line of the 12th Amendment. "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."
This means more than just ineligible to be elected VP. It means that B-J Clinton, GW Bush, and BH 0bama may not SERVE as VP even if they could be elected to it. Interestingly GHW Bush WOULD be eligible to be VP.
Consider also Henry Kissinger. When he was Secretary of State he was not a part of the line of succession because he was ineligible to hold the office of President. He would also have been ineligible to replace Spiro Agnew.

The 22nd Amendment does not create constitutional ineligibility to the office of President. If it did, instead of saying "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once", it would say, "No person shall hold the office of the President for more than eight years, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall hold the office of the President for more than four years."
Or, stated even more simply, "Any person elected to the office of the President twice, or any person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President who is subsequently elected once, shall after the completion of his service be ineligible to serve as President in the future".
But it doesn't say that now, does it?
Amendment XII governs the regulations of the election of President and Vice President. If the the electors could not vote for him for President, they cannot vote for him for Vice President, either. Your hair splitting does not change the clear intention of Amendment XII.
Hillary has a vagina.
No President ever had one before.
That's why.
Answering this question is way above my pay grade.
