Election dreams?

Dreams? More like nightmares. We have been overwhelmed with the amount of media on the democrats and republicnas, as well as the media reports concerning only those two. My nightmare is that either another republican (oh please no more, no more) or a democrat (only a slight variation of the republicans) get into office, and that the other parties will never get their chance. Though the dream that keeps me awake at night is that the republicans get into office, McCain becomes unable to be president and Palin takes over. Talk about about a screaming nightmare.

My good dreams are that the media starts giving equal airtime to the other parties in the elections. There are more than two parties. Really!

My nightmare that i have had lately is that we are going to have another president that is all about war. I think we should defend ourselves but not start a war. I know having a democrat in the white house will be the best thing the united states have done in a long time........ Not to say i dont like republicans i just think they have let us down twice already why would we do it again its time for a change.

My good dream people will open their eyes and see we are in the need for a change

"There are more than two parties. Really!" Agreed. But with campaign finances they way they are, the other parties just can't get heard. The whole finance thing has to be fixed. But that will never happen with the 2 major parties loving things just like they are. And apparently the media likes it that way as well - if things were changed, they would lose the millions in revenue.

With political party conventions only days away and the General Election less than three months away, presumed Democratic Presidential candidate, Senator Barack Hussein Obama is still largely seen as a mystery-man. Exactly who is this ambitious young candidate? Where is he coming from? What is his philosophy, his record, and his aim? Described as a “Liberal”, does not his record more accurately indicate a radical of Socialist orientation?

While charming, charismatic, intelligent, and articulate in speech, with a certain spell-binding harangue, his campaign message is mostly muted slogans and cloudy visions of “change”. Where did he pick up this “change” mantra? A century ago the slogan ”CHANGE” was a regularly used code word in the world of international Marxism.

Rather than focusing on specific policy issues, Obama prefers rhetorical sloganeering and visions of undefined “change”. Where he occasionally finds it necessary to take an issue-position, frequently this is found conflicting with a past statement. Issue flip-flopping marks him as just another clever politician telling people what they want to hear, rather than a fresh agent of “change”. In this, Obama seems caught in a tight box, trying to please diverse elements of his Democrat party—moderates versus radicals. In order to avoid being identified with an African-American tendency toward “victim politics”, Obama has now placed his activist wife, Michelle, into a silent mode.

But we do know that Obama favors Affirmative Action, Racial Quotas, Victim Politics, Abortion-on-Demand, Free-flow Immigration, Feminism, Tax-and-Spend, Liberal Judges, Radical Environmentalism, and now Zionism. He’s for “saving the planet” by not drilling for oil, and opposes expansion of new coal or nuclear energy. His energy “fixes” are visionary and speculative—no immediate solutions, with hopeful expectations far into the future. Meanwhile, get a tire gauge because Obama says tire inflation reduces oil consumption. This is not exactly Rocket Science. But if you can’t take public transportation, get a bicycle. Automobiles and trucks are a threat to the planet. Radical “environmentalism” is the “change” he wants.

Obama’s foreign policy calls for an abrupt end of the Iraq War (occupation), with a newly-found strong support of Israel (another flip-flop). In confrontation with Iran and Pakistan, Obama leaves “all options on the table”, including military expeditions. Troops would not “come home”, but most would transfer to Afghanistan, and naval forces would stay in the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean. So, where is the “change” here? To reinforce a sense of patriotism, Obama seems focused on erasing rumors that he may be a Muslim.

But, no matter, gurus of the Press, TV, Hollywood and Manhattan have practically anointed Obama as supreme leader of the global New Order. He is “The One”! His “celebrity” image is reinforced by an enormous ego, unusual even in the political realm—”I am the One”, as he says. Some call it natural ambition; others call it arrogance and false pride.

However, this expected coronation will still have to await the national election process. Although there’s heavy Democratic reliance on controversial “Motor-Voter” new enrollments and “get-out-the-vote” campaigns, there’s still worry about what “Joe Six Pack” and those odd folks out in the sticks—“stubbornly and sentimentally attached to guns and religion”—might do behind the curtain in the voting booth. There’s also worry about the large element of independent voters who may view him as too inexperienced and risky.

The public has been force-fed images of Obama-adulation crowds abroad in numbers seldom seen since European Socialist and Marxist mobs went wild for dictators 75 to 90 years ago. Many Europeans have been slowly brainwashed to forget their once-proud cultural heritages, and manipulated to embrace International Socialism. So they cheer Rock-Star Obama’s boast that he’s a “Citizen of the World” (New Order codeword). After all, the human race must be homogenized and separated from any notion of nationalism. In Berlin Obama shouts, “all walls must come down”. Presumably, this includes any walls on the Mexican border, as well.

Simplistically hoping for “change” in these uncertain and troubled times, those who favor the Socialist agenda of “Big Government” see Obama as the secular “messiah”, who would part the waters separating us and bring us to the Promised Land. Thus, Socialistic Europe has apparently pre-ratified the election of Obama, so who are we little ones in the U.S. “homeland” to question any of this? Get used to it! We are now “citizens of the World”!

To strip any mystery from Obama, there’s a need to closely examine his early days in Indonesia and Hawaii, and the early educational and political mentors who indoctrinated him. Biographies seem to avoid any critical and complete examination of his early background and the Muslim heritage of his father and step-father.

Given Obama’s 20-year involvement with Chicago’s Trinity mega-church, and with his close association with the highly-controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and in light of his White grandparent’s non-involvement with any religion at all, one might say Obama’s religious commitment appears somewhat cloudy. Was it politics which led Obama to join Rev. Wright’s mega-church—and then being led to Christ—or what? Could political motivation have been a factor in seeking association with South Chicago’s predominately Black churches? Or was Obama, like St. Paul on the road to Damascus, supernaturally led to Jesus? We hope it is the latter case.

Virtually abandoned by his bi-racial parents, Obama was mostly raised by his White grandparents in Hawaii. Obama has said that his grandparents had “little money” while he was schooled in Hawaii. One might ask, with “little money” how was Obama propelled to Los Angeles and then on to exclusive Eastern U.S. Ivy league schools, 4,500 miles from Hawaii? Since Pell Grants, Affirmative Action grants, and student loans appear inadequate to meet the enormous tuition and living expenses in exclusive “Ivy” schools, it would seem probable that hidden educational mentors in Hawaii, partisan financial patrons, and political agents were involved in pushing this favored student in an amazing climb up the ladder. Could Obama supply the facts?

Once Ivy collegiate finishing was done, how is it that Obama was financially free to turn down lucrative Wall Street jobs (said to have been offered), and head West a thousand miles to the South Chicago slums to “aid in organizing” the job-poor minorities? Was this some kind of missionary dedication to humanity, or was there a political objective? What were his financial arrangements for living expenses? Too many unanswered questions! How is it that Obama was led to associate with the radical Socialist “School of the Industrial Areas Foundation” and the affiliated “Woodlawn Organization” in Chicago—political fronts established by founder Saul D. Alinsky. Saul Alinsky was a self-described “professional revolutionary”. He was of such radical Socialist fame that he felt impelled to take his organizations underground during and after Congressional Hearings, 1950-52, on Marxist infiltration of the Federal Government. It wasn’t long before his school was back in business as usual. Alinsky’s school was famous as a “boot camp” for radicals.

We learn from Alinsky’s two books, “Reveille for Radicals” (1945), and “Rules for Radicals” (1971), that his Chicago school was a political training ground for grooming radical politicians of promise, using activism in minority communities to gain a local power base. Included was his aim to expand power through a brazen association with South Side Chicago Christian churches dedicated to the “Social Gospel”. Alinsky, a non-believer, worked under the assumption that the mega-church preachers were only nominal Christians, mainly interested in easy and lucrative careers, with benefits of local power. Alinsky would aid these churches in gaining important new members; and these churches could help his Socialist-oriented agents gain a local political base. This is euphemistically called “Community Organizing” in the Democratic Party, with downplay of any association with Socialism. This quest for political power advances under the guise of the “struggle” for Civil Rights, and activism for “equality and justice”.

Saul Alinsky was openly a political agitator, using constant dissention and conflict. His “Rule”, as set forth in his books, was simplified in a slogan: “Agitate+Aggravate+Educate+Organize”, a truly revolutionary program.

Saul Alinsky died in 1972, but his community Foundation and school survived his death, and continued in Chicago with his program of Radical Socialism. Students of his Chicago School certainly knew of (and admired!) Saul Alinsky as its founder. This is not to prove that Senator Obama is, or ever was, a revolutionary Socialist or a Marxist sympathizer. But Obama’s association with the Alinsky Foundation school is part of his early Radical-Left record. Perhaps candidate Obama might be asked to explain this association, and give us his assessment of Alinsky, the “professional revolutionary”.

Theres more then two parties?!!! Wow I would never have known that based on the media! LOL!!! Whats the point? The other parties will never win because there is no media coverage on them ! Dont forget to vote!!!!

I've got it from friend...

Dear Fellow Business Owners
As a Business owner who employs 30 people, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama, may be our next President, and that my Taxes and Fees, will go up in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases, I figure, that the Customer, will have to see an increase in my fees to them of about, 8%. I will also have to lay off 6 of my employees. This really bothered me as I treat my employees like family here and I will have a hard time choosing who will have to go. So, this is what I did. I strolled thru the parking lot and found, 8 Obama bumper stickers on my employees cars. I have decided the folks that own these cars will be the FIRST to be laid off.
I can't think of a better way to approach this problem. If you have a better idea, let me know.

Dream# 1 McCain/Palin win and prove CNN,MSNBC and all the pollsters wrong.
Dream #2 The money both parties spent on presidential races is somehow magically returned and it's used to pay for low income kids college education and medical bills.
Nightmare situation, the White House, Senate and Congress are in the hands
of democrats...brrrrrrrrrrr, that really scares me....

My Dream... people wake up from what Bill Clinton called Barack Obama's campaign, a "Fairy Tale".

The Globe is putting years of journalistic integrity on the line for a man who has been tied up in the rackets in Chicago. You can not defend Obama's house purchase with Rezko, any involvement is abominable. He plugged Bill Ayers book. He almost broke a record voting "Present", he voted 97% down party lines, he took more from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac than everyone but Chris Dodd, has less experience than anyone running for President in the past 50 years, etc. etc. etc. Beyond that, he wants to spread the wealth, is poisoned with vanity, is critical of the Founding Fathers and wants Supreme Court Justices to be pawns in his social engineering. Add to that a congress dominated by the furthest left wingers in decades, I appeal to the better senses of the Globe and its readers to heed th eword of Arnold Schwartzeneger and not change this nation to that of a weak second tier european nation. People want to come to the United States to get opportunity. We don't want lazy losers who are looking for a hand out.
Further, the bottom 50 percent of earners only pay 3% of the cost of government. the top 25% pay 86% of the freight, do you think they get 86% of the benefits? In other nations the wealthy don't give nearly as much. Here, the wealthy pay and give opportunity to those that pay nothing. The wealthy pay the overwhelming amount of the freight for our police, firefighters, teachers, military etc. If people aren't paying for these services they at least ought to be thankful.
Obama wants to give welfare checks to people that don't pay taxes. How on earth does the Boston Globe believe that he is the right choice?
To the academic socialists, you make significantly higher profits than the oil companies and have gouged us more than them in the past fifteen years. You want socialism because when the market bears at affordabity limits, if education is subsidized you know you can charge more, and you do. You want governenment subsidies so you can get more than you deserve. Every social engineering policy tried has failed miserably and has hurt the people it was meant to help i.e. how affordablity was made worse for housing due to socialistic policies like the Community Reinvestment Act.
Our elderly have paid into social programs and Obama will bankrupt and swamp these resources with deadbeats that ought to be out working and earning. Younger workers need to be sled dogs to help pull the weight of an aging population, we don't need lazy losers who feel "entitled" or Obama's base.
You don't build a middle class by letting the government control the resources of our Nation. Think about how resources will be doled out if Obama, Pelosi, Reed, Frank, etc. gets your money, they will give to groups like ACORN. Don't believe me, 20% of the Bailout money was headed to ACORN in the first draft of the bailout. At least private companies have profit and loss responsibilities and have to compete. Governments don't so if we let Obama control our wealth and resources we'll let government control them. Do you think government ever does anything correctly? Government screws up everything so the last thing we need right now is to let them tie up our wealth, which is one of our resources. Second tiered socialistic nations control their nation's wealth and that is why they aren't competitive and why their best and brightest come to the United States.

Obama loses.

Dream that for once people actually get a clue and understand the "real" issues like domestic and foreign policy, green energy, health care, etc. vs. fretting about imaginary issues like idiotic pastors who ran off at the mouth. We are a nation controlled by the media. It isn't fasicm but it is close.....

My dream is that it is 8:00 Tuesday and our long national nightmare is over.

My dream is not having religion play such a huge factor in American politics and issues. Too bad the reality of things is quite different. Separation of church and state huh? Yeah right!

I had a dream that people actually woke up and realized in order for the stock market to come back we need to get investors to feel confident about investing their $$$. Simple economics says that raising taxes on those that will most likely invest and increasing capital gains will make it difficult for investors to feel confident. Raising taxes and capital gains will just put the country in a MUCH worse economic crisis than we are in today. OBAMA is not the answer to inspiring investor confidence.

Hey Bill and john p - I didn't read 1 word of either of your ridiculously long entries. I for one am not interested in reading the entries of people so absorbed in their own thoughts.

I think it is telling that most of the respondents to this invitation on Boston Globe are against the Democrats. As for other parties, sorry but the problem is beyond the issues of no money and no media. Until they (I'm supposing you meant Libertarian, Green) reach out to the common, non-radical person, as Obama has time and time again, they will remain in the background. As for people who think the nation will do better under two "individualist" reactionaries (another word for "mavericks") who do not know how to put a team together, as proven again and again, then you are just asking for more of the same.

My dream is that Obama/Biden win and we can all move on with our lives and making the future better for our children. God help my little 8 year old who has only known life under such lies, war, and anger as is displayed by the people who are still in power.

I grew up near Boston almost daily reading the Boston Globe and when I moved to another state I began reading some other papers. Oddly, I always thought the readers and writers of the Globe were free-thinking, wise and liberal. Where are you guys now?!

Please my dream is that

I strolled thru the parking lot and found, 8 Obama bumper stickers on my employees cars. I have decided the folks that own these cars will be the FIRST to be laid off.
I can't think of a better way to approach this problem. If you have a better idea, let me know.

Maybe it's just me Alex, but why not wait to see IF any tax increase will do such harm to your business. If it does and you really do need to lay off those 6 people driving those 8 cars with Obama bumper stickers on them... you might want to choose who stays and who goes based on who is most needed to keep your company running properly (or base it on seniority). Laying off a person because of their political preference is borderline moronic from a business standpoint. But, it's your business to lose.
GOOD LUCK!

By the way, my dream is that our new president (whomever it may be) won't screw up the country like the last idiot "we" elected.

People become color blind when voting!!

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!

People become color blind when voting!!

Let's hope so Bill, let's hope so.

I had a dream that it was January 20th 2009 and I don't know who was elected but everyone was excitedly celebrating "Independence Day." My next door neighbor was standing out in the snow and cold flipping burgers on a grill under a big hand painted banner that said: No More Years.
