Class Warfare and the Election

Here is a question for you. Recently, Donald Trump was asked if he would want white supremacists to vote for him. I want you to think about that for a moment. Have you considered the question they asked him? Who don't you want to vote for you is the question. Imagine asking Cruz or Rubio the exact same question. They would not turn down anyone's vote. Carson would and I am not sure about Kasich; but, he might. Now lets flip it. Ask Clinton if she would tell Social Democrats to not vote for her. Same question to all of them. I believe in my heart that Sanders and Carson would tell certain groups not to vote for them. I think they are both very good people morally and I don't think either will win.

I have previously written that I have no party affiliation and I don't, I have voted for people in both parties. I have openly stated that I am currently registered as a Democrat and will vote for Sanders. That is a pretty clear indication of what I think. If it is Clinton against Trump, I will vote Trump. Think about it, I supported both the Tea Party and the Occupy Movement. I believe in destroying the party system and voting for people who instead support the people of this nation. I don't hide what I think, I post it.

Here is a joke for you about me. When I was about 20, one of my professors asked me if I wanted a job as a statician for a major city, he was the head statician for that city. As much as I hated algebra back in the day, I loved numbers with meaning. I aced every statistics class and took them all. Each politician has a survey firm working for them and they take surveys EVERY day and of every state, that is just reality. They take so many surveys that they know their chances by district. Not all their money goes into advertising, you have to know where to advertise first. I have been in the political game since birth, practically.

Here now is the fun part. Whatever result we see today has already been polled and each of the candidates is already pre-determined their response. Rubio has an explanation for how he can still win even though he has lost Florida and Cruz will say how his miniscule win in Texas proves he is the only person who has beaten Trump. LOL. If the brokered convention is successful, Romney will be brought in under the guise that he was the last Republican to get a plurality. He may get the selection without having won one state; but, will lose to Clinton. That is the game plan that the establishment is following.

According to statistics, 90% of all Americans are middle class or working class. The vast majority of working and middle class people support either Trump or Sanders.

Trump Wins Nevada By a Lot

My last post was prior to the election results, now it is confirmed. Trump won by a landslide. I shall repeat that I am a Bernie Sanders supporter; but, if not him then Trump. I appreciate a good nationalist and they are the only nationalists in the race, the rest represent and work for globalist money. The general media response is to ignore Sanders and insult Trump and his supporters. The Trump candidacy highlights the lies better and that is fun.

Lets start with this, by the Republican party insulting Trumps supporters they are calling for their own death. Trump just won Nevada with about 44% of the votes and the media insists upon saying bad things about his supporters. The Republican party establishment is insulting almost half of their voters, how can they survive? Do you really believe that a party which ridicules it's own supporters can survive? The conservative media openly discusses what needs to be done to beat Trump. Think about that. They openly publish articles about how Republicans who support Trump are idiots and how they plan on making sure that the votes don't matter. They have publicly said that if Trump wins every primary but fails to get over 51% they will have a convention where they give it to someone else who has less votes.

Here is more lunacy. Fox news has openly criticized Trump for saying he will deport all the illegal aliens; but, now Rubio and Cruz are saying the exact same thing and Fox is not telling them how they cannot. I have not seen one positive news report about Trump, not one and my readers know I follow the news.

My sister lives in Nevada and actually voted at one of their primaries. I congratulate her for that, for her choosing to spend the hours it took her to vote. Every election that Trump is in has a higher turnout than it has in the past. Sanders, for his part, has brought in more young voters than in the past. People actually are interested in the outcome of this election. Now let me present a real game changer for the establishment.

Imagine this, Sanders or Trump wins their parties nomination and picks the other as Vice President. It won't happen; but, lets just play with this. Imagine Trump winning the Republican nomination and picking Sanders as his running mate, he would get all of Sanders supporters and if Sanders won the Democratic nomination and picked Trump as his Vice President he would get all of Trumps supporters. Can you imagine how much that would upset the few who control the two parties?

I have looked at the most current polls for super Tuesday and Trump looks to win almost all the states if not all of them. Lets assume that Trump wins all the states except Texas where he comes in a strong second to Cruz, who is from that state. Then what? Super Tuesday is the most delegates awarded in one day. If Trump wins super Tuesday, what does the establishment do? Stealing the election from him at the convention would be suicide so they would have to find another way to eliminate him. Ridiculing him and his supporters has not worked. The thing my Republican friends fear is that the establishment will kill him. That is scary and not unheard of. What happens if Trump is killed?

If Trump were killed do you believe his supporters would suddenly choose Rubio, I don't think so. Do you think they would turn to Cruz, I don't think so. You know who they would vote for, Ben Carson. Every conservative I know likes Carson, they prefer Trump but they like Carson. I have a video for you to watch, it is by a group called Til Tuesday and is entitled Voices Carry. It explains perfectly how the conservative media views Trump's supporters. At then end of the song she complains that her boyfriend is telling he to be quiet because others might hear her. Her final statement is "He won't let me talk". That pretty much sums up this election. The media is trying to stop us from talking about Trump, Sanders, Jobs, Income Theft by the rich or tax breaks being only for the wealthy who are looting this country and sending jobs overseas. Enjoy the song.

The Media on the Nevada Caucus

It is February 23rd and the Nevada Caucuses are supposed to close in 12 minutes. I have been watching the news channels live streams on YouTube and it is hilarious. The Young Turks have stopped their show's live stream because they said Trump is going to win by a landslide and there is no point in following the count. Fox has been busy saying that what really matters is who comes in second and arguing over who should leave the race so that the one left can beat Trump. Not one vote has been counted yet and they all know who is going to win.

The Wealthy Hate Trump and Sanders Because They Care About Americans

The Seattle Times - Trump’s warning about Boeing jobs dismissed by experts.  Donald Trump had told the people in South Carolina that Boeing was building a major aircraft plant in China and that he believes they will begin moving more jobs there. The big newspaper in Seattle, the home of Boeing, says he doesn't understand their industry and that it is too technical. Wait, Steve Jobs said Americans are too stupid to manufacture his phones; but, this article claims they are technical enough to build planes. Trump is probably right.

Huffington Post - Wall Street's Message to Young Adults: 'You Are Clueless'.  Wall Street thinks young people should not vote for Bernie Sanders and thinks they are dumb for wanting to. What particularly bothers them is that Sanders and the younger voters are forcing Hillary Clinton to talk more about income inequality. The Wall Street Journal article even admits that the United States is expected to lose 75 million jobs in the next twenty years. Here is the question, what should young people do to protect themselves from the day when robots are doing most of the work? They know that their future is being destroyed by technology and globalism, they were the first to point it out.

Here is the choice. After the jobs are gone, this country will either look like a South American Right Wing totalitarian country or a Scandinavian Social Democracy. What it will not be is the country that we knew because manufacturing will be gone and not everyone can be an engineer or scientist. The reason you are seeing the changers that we are is because the wealthy are preparing for the day when they don't need workers or in fact the majority of our citizens.

Is Wisconsin the State of Imbeciles?

New York Times - Gov. Walker Resumes His War on Workers.  So Wisconsin is eliminating all civil service protection for state workers. Good luck with that Wisconsin. Ignorance is bliss but it only lasts so long. No longer will people have to take tests to get a government job and they can be fired by the next Governor for no reason. Hey, I know history, I know how this worked in the past. Each time a new mayor or governor was elected they would fire all of the present employees and replace them with their supporters, that is why we created civil service.

The Republican party has been the anti-progressive party for the past 30 years. They have deregulated most industries and given them tax breaks for outsourcing and they are attacking Social Security, pensions and civil service. It was under Bush where competitive bids for contracts was reduced so that Halliburton could get billions in contracts. Halliburton supplies the military with it's supplies and moved it's headquarters to Dubai after getting the contracts from us. The reason all these things are connected is because they are all destined to eliminate protections that were put in place in the early 1900s. The same protections made for the rise of the middle class.

It is said that those who forget history are forced to repeat it's mistakes. I disagree partly, people choose to ignore history because they are insane and believe that by continually doing the same thing that failed in the past, eventually they will be successful. The insistence on doing two contrary things and expecting them to not conflict is insanity defined. You cannot have your cake and eat it too. Paths diverge and eventually you have to choose one or just stay where you are. Wisconsin as a state has chosen to try to replicate what they did in the 1800s and failed. Good luck with that.

Make Corporate Tax Breals Based On American Jobs

Here is a thought. What if companies got tax breaks based on the percentage of their workforce that was Americans. If General Motors outsources 50% of it's jobs overseas then whatever they qualify for in tax deductions would be reduced by 50% of the total amount deductible. Lets reserve tax breaks for people who invest in Americans. Think about it.

Happy 2/16/2016.

Just a couple of obvious posts and some music, maybe a thought or two, we shall see.

Yahoo - AP - APNewsBreak: US OK's first factory in Cuba since revolution.  China and India are not the only countries we plan on giving our manufacturing to.

The Slatest - Sanders Is Delusional if He Thinks He Can Keep His Promise on Mass Incarceration.  Read the title, it sounds like Sanders wants to jail more people, nope, he wants to jail less people. He wants to jail violent criminals, not those who hurt themselves like hookers or junkies. The article proposes that it is impossible to jail fewer people in America. Consider that we jail a higher percentage of our population than other countries including China. Read the article and see why we "cannot" jail fewer of us. The article does ignore talking about a few things, one of them being the fact that the private prisons require that we jail a certain percentage of our population or our governments are charged as if we did anyways.

No music, I changed my mind.
