Sharing the wealth

I would think someone wanting to "share the wealth" would not be for tax cuts to give the people their money back.

"waited to 40 years old to grow up"

That's a cheap shot. If that was true - how can he start at 40 and become a governor two terms and a president? Why would we elect one who waited until 40 to grow up - that sounds like Gore or Clinton.

I would think he just probably got offtrack but had the guts to get himself back on track, to learn that he is unable to drink and from then on stayed away from it totally. That sounds pretty courageous to me and pretty self-disciplined.

He wants us all to quit confronting ghetto trash, perverts, and con artists bent on the deconstruction, disassembly, and destruction of the USA and the ideology which establishes it as the last, best hope for the human race.

Have no idea what you are referring to here.

Uniter?

A uniter is what we need as the superpower. We have to lead - and people are led more easily with a person that joins with them as they go in the right direction rather than one telling them what to do.

Frankly I agree with his philosophy that the more you trade with countries like China - the more our values creep into their culture and they eventually come to depend on the trade and will be hesitant to do things that will disrupt that source of income. The Chinese people will become familiar with the free world.

Also - I think the stronger our ties are with Mexico and Canada the better.

"The Chinese people will become familiar with the free world."

East Asia is more than aware of the free world. The free world is what they consider the far off lands of foreign barbarians. They want nothing from us except technology and superficial accoutrements which give them the guise of power and prestige. That's as far as East Asian use for the Western world goes.

In a nutshell, for every solution we perceive, they see a problem. They are a very defiant bunch, devious, conspiring, passive aggressive, and bent on world domination. Honesty over there is considered stupidity. The only thing that succeeds is the fait accompli, the only thing that persuades is brute force. The skills which we need to acquire through specialized training, like used car salesmanship, for example, is natural behavior for them. They think us idiotic because we imagine honesty to be the best policy, and have laws to enforce breaches of trust. East Asia imagines honesty foolishness, and laws to enforce it a waste of government resources.

I lived in Japan for ten years and am quite sure of what I write. I could go on, but I'd be writing for the next hour and a half and you'd fall asleep.
