"Worried About American Politics?"

Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Aug 19, 2016 at 14:57

In view of the apparent inability of anyone in American politics to develop any kind of common sense on how to keep America from becoming the wreckage and ruin that the 'dreams of the father Chief Executive desires, being worried about 'American Politics' is an overt understatement.

This reader has offered a number of observations that should lead to a conclusion very few are willing to acknowledge; that America has been compromised so very badly in the last four administrations; that only a traumatic outcome could really be offered to set things straight.

A Clinton Administration offers no hope for a renewed America; that a continuation of an Obama administration as many have proffered is not on the horizon, but a continuation of the Clintonian era of the nineties is more likely. Remember that the ACA is a more sinister version of a Clinton idea.

A Trump administration, on the other hand is actually a harder sell to assuage the panicked peoples of the Constitution, since they are the ones who bear the brunt of any continued assault on Constitutionally embedded citizens; progressives and minions do not care any longer about rights.

But as is noticed in activities of catastrophic proportions around the world and in these United States, American politics may be decided in ways that American politics no longer have any control over. Wasn't that the point of the Cairo 2009 speech; of the Arab uprising; of Syria and Benghazi?
