To the editor:
Some have said this election will decide the battle between socialism and capitalism. Wrong! That battle is over. Capitalism was regulated out of existence years ago. It has been replaced by “crony-capitalism” — a misleading name for political corruption and pay to play.
This election will decide if mob rule permanently replaces the rule of law. The winner will nominate someone to replace the deceased Justice Scalia on the U.S. Supreme Court. Most U.S. Supreme Court decisions have been 5 to 4 and will become 4 to 5 if conservative Scalia is replaced by a liberal — and, the rule of law will become history.
President Obama was a community organizer. As a professor, he taught the Constitution prevented the president from doing whatever he wanted. As president, he has ignored the Constitution and done whatever he could get away with. There is one set of rules for him (and his friends and supporters); and, another set for everyone else. Both he and Hillary are from Chicago and were trained in the radical principles of Sol Alinsky and know how to apply them to get what they want.
In 2012, five million fewer citizens voted than in 2008 — giving the victory to Obama. All the ruckus and turmoil are designed to get voters so disgusted they stay home. Read the fine print, most of the ads are not being run by candidates. Many of the ads are misleading — if not outright lies. Congressional candidates who will negotiate treaties to save American jobs! Really? I thought the president negotiated treaties and the Senate ratified (or rejected) them. I didn’t know the House had any part in treaties. Or, has a jobs plan. Really? One Representative in the House can create jobs — beyond hiring their own staff members? Some ads may even be designed to hurt the candidate they appear to favor.
For the candidates’ views, go to the candidates’ websites and get their views straight from them; not filtered and distorted by others whose biases are unknown. Go to rsbn.tv to see Trump and Pence unfiltered. You can find campaign appearances and the full Republican Convention archived there. And, the website broadcasts campaign appearances live. It is an excellent site for learning what was really said — in full context — versus what gets reported in the media. Some of the best speeches at the Republican Convention never made it on the air at PBS.
Hillary and the Progressives/Liberals/Democrats are pulling out all the stops to win. Party matters. PACs controlled by Nancy Pelosi are spending millions to make sure she gets back in power.
Come November, either Hillary or Trump will win and become the chief executive of our county. Only Trump has any experience as a chief executive. November 8, vote to restore the rule of law — vote Trump/Pence for President /Vice President. Help elect Long to the US Senate, Tenney to Congress, and Salka to the Assembly.
