Nuclear Weapon Danger

What happens if a USA President elected legally through the system turns renegade? Ever hear of a liar getting elected? Think a liar can’t get elected?

If we don’t believe that our politicians are honest, then I think we should feel some insecurity about them if they wield nuclear weapons. Yeah, I believe we are safe with President Barrack Obama in office, but what is to say the next President won’t be a lunatic? Can we believe what our politicians tell us when they run for office? Let's not have a false sense of security; one day everything may be peaceful, and the next, the game changes when someone sets off one of these nukes for personal reasons.

Nukes are just like guns, and I think the people who are most likely to get hurt by them are their owners. This is a fact: if states own nuclear bombs, then it is highly likely that eventually they will be used. Thus, France’s and Great Britain’s nuclear arsenal are absolutely a threat. Thus, the USA’s nuclear weapons are absolutely a threat. All nuclear weapons are a threat!  They are built to inspire fear to enemies, such that they feel THREATENED into submission.

Raise the Minimum Wage? Is this some kind of joke?

I keep reading about politicians who want to raise the minimum wage.  This is a pipedream at this point.  It seems more likely that Republicans will be able to thwart it in the next Congressional term.  What crosses my mind is that possibly key Democrats are trumpeting it merely as a way to get more votes for the November 4 election despite the fact that it is unlikely to happen.

"The 1956 Republican Platform" What changed?

It is not about being a Republican or a Democrat, and that one is necessarily wrong, but there is a degree of correctness that is inherent to politics despite the commonality of differing opinions. Politics is a question of the heart, and the bottom line, both of which are not mutually exclusive. The Republicans in the Red states generally have a different sense of goodness, as compared to the Democrats of the Blue states. If something is in fact good, it should bring a sense of wholeness in its resonance in souls, yet I am not one to say that the Red states have it all wrong because in those states there is a greater preponderance of inept folks than the Blue states. In consequence, the ways folks will vote show some natural discrepancies, and that is okay.
