Let It Be Known

Since President Bush has taken office, I can't think of one solid, good thing has happened.  And now in light of these horrible economic times and the stock market in a state of disaray, I can't help but feel the Republicans are responsible.

For 8 years we have been at the mercy of President Bush.  We have seen Al Gore win the national election, only to loose to the electoral college, or really loose to the mysterious ballots of Florida, that we all know had not been tampered with.  We have witnessed the attempts of John Kerry in '04, only to loose the national election this time, which led to the next four miserable years of yet another presidential term of George W.   

Finally, the Democratic party has nominated and individual with enough charisma and sheer political talent to raise America back to a point of prosperity seen during the Clinton administration.  To think that we had impeached Bill Clinton for receiving a "lil something something" while in the Whitehouse, yet we have let George Bush turn America into a laughing stock among more "civilized" nations such as France, the Netherlands, and England, (just to name a few).  

So please Barack Obama, lead America back, before the Chinese tanks role in.

Ron Paul: America's Candidate

Let's be honest.  

Ron Paul never had a shot from the get-go, but his campaign was one that should be looked at more closely and respected.  

Sure, Ron's Libertarian philosophies of zero government intervention is a little farfetched, especially in times where loan agencies are falling like flies, but the man was the only candidate, who took the issues that mattered most to Americans and clearly addressed them throughly and honestly.  Mr. Paul was not afraid to speak the truth, exclaim the real problems that wrong with America, and give solutions, that arguably would have worked.  

As far as Ron Paul's economic principles, most Americans would not agree, but looking at his social philosophies and ideals, it hits a mark with most American voters.  Unlike most of his Republican counterparts, Paul actually seems to give a nudge to the "little guy" every once and a while, that big business, corporate conservatives would never think of.  In my opinion, his social principles are more Democratic than Republican, but it is arguable. 

With Ron Paul now seemingly a distant member of a couple of months ago, America will miss out on Laizze Faire, the legalization of Marijuana, and forthright honesty.  

I'm with you Ron.

1st Post: College, Palin, Other Cool Things

Hello everyone on the blogger stage!  

This is my first post, and although I have blogged before, I have never really given the activity the essential attention and mantinence that a proper blog should receive.  I'm going to really try to express my ideas, philosophies, and outlooks on this page, as well as any other subject matter that seems to affect me.  

As for right now, I feel really clustered and very pressured.  Although, I believe I have felt more stress in the past, with college applications and the whole college process looming in the future, I'm really starting to feel it.  The anxiety is piling up.

On a lighter note, Sarah Palin is officially retarded.  She recently told reporters that she would not allow them to hear or cover her chat with foreign officials.  I think everyone and their mother knows that Palin would not want us to "over-hear" her "conversation" with these officials, because she would stoop lower in the minds of American voters, than she already has.  
When the American public got news of this, and the backlash of violent protests began to ensue, Palin overturned her decision, and to her dismay will allow the media to cover the event.  

Now this scares me in two different ways.

1.  Palin is easily moved by the media and the public.  Now this is not a totally bad thing.  I mean a President or Vice President should be in close contact with the American public, and should detail their agendas to what the public thinks.  However, for Palin to completely change her decision just to stop the backlash of angry voters, is not right in my book.

2. Secondly, Palin what are you going to say to these officials?  I hope that Russia is involved in this chat because than you could talk about how you can almost see Vladamir and his buddies huddled up in some bar, swinging back some bottles of vodka.  Now, everyone can agree that to be a Vice President you have to have experience in foreign policy.  Palin has none.  Not a single bit of experience.  I don't understand why its even a debate anymore, check Obama's name on November 4.  PLEASE.  I'm begging you.

(I hope this information about the above material was correct, I received it today at school from Joseph Olmeda, who is a reliable source.  If it is in any way untrue, blame Joe, but there are still solid points.  Palin sucks.)
