And while the word “problem,” vernacular wise, does tend to encompass the sum of American politics no matter which political party one aligns themselves with, said “problem” more times than not has its basis in a commonality that is either willingly being ignored by one party or simply not being addressed by the other party out of fear of facing what are sure to come ramifications. And while most Republicans rightfully feel that today's Democrat party has lost all vestiges of what is both “common sense” and “rational thinking,” thus leaving them in multi-stages of chaos, misdirection, and an uncertain political future; most Democrat's feel that the Republican party is not willing enough, not open minded enough, in its thinking to even try to understand why they deem the concept of “inclusion” to be so important.
But no matter the two parties current differences, the root cause of all the“problems” we as a nation still face today, whether we be Republicans or Democrats...I believe... remains the same, as in one Barack Hussein Obama, America's 44th president, whose platform when running for office was “Hope and Change” which when elected morphed into the “fundamental transformation of America.” And this in turn set into motion not only what became known as the “weakest recovery from a recession in modern American history,” but all the hate, divisiveness, and anger that follow us to this day. How so...because the America Obama led for eight years was then and remains now, vastly different than the America he inherited, but obviously not in a good sense for his presidency heralded in extreme social, demographic, and cultural changes that caused tenuous shifts in both government policy and in the “court of public opinion.”Known also in some Democrat circles as the “Father of DEI,” Obama started said transformation by establishing “The Diversity & Inclusion Council” via “Executive Order 13583,” beginning with the infamous Department of Education...and not surprisingly we all know how well that turned out now don't we. And while Obama claimed that DEI would, “lead us down the path to true equality,” DEI instead turned out to be a guise for anything but “equality” as skin color and misguided sexual deviations overrode not just common sense, but merit based qualifications in both educational endeavors and in the public work force hiring.
And again, America's current troubles were courtesy of the“media anointed” first black president...a misnomer to begin with as Barack Hussein Obama technically is of “mixed race”...or what's scientifically classified as “bi-racial”...as his mother was white and his father black...yet he still deliberately ripped open what was, at the time, healing racial wounds. How so...by his outwardly embracing radically dangerous groups like “Black Lives Matter” and “Antifa” while turning black criminals...like Michael Brown, George Floyd, and the infamous, “If I had a son...” Trayvon Martin...into heroes and victims simply because their skin color was black.
And while Obama's supposed “blackness” was and does remain his true driving force, his political ineptitude while in office led to more Americans receiving government aid...aka “welfare”...then working full-time, thus creating a new generation of “welfare dependent” individuals, which unfortunately continues to this day. Remember too, that it was Obama who, in 2012, helped shield from deportation over 1.2 million so called “Dreamers”....as in children brought to our country at a young age and whose families our taxpayer dollars helped to support...as well as his 2014 spending of our monies on five million then called “undocumented residents.” Simply, Obama loved spending what was our hard earned taxpayer dollars on individuals that it should never have been spent on.And dare not forget that Obama's answer to all America's money “problems”...“problems” including his putting us on a so-called “fiscal cliff” by having added $6.5+ trillion dollars to the then national debt...was simply to “print more money,” never mind the fact that the needed “treasure” to back it up was simply not there.
And while Americans were financially hurting at the same time the printing presses were merrily rolling along, Obama relished in shoving his namesake piece of legislation known as “ObamaCare” down American's collective throats.“ObamaCare”...the healthcare disaster that was then and still remains now in the hands of “pencil pushing” bureaucrats instead of seeing an individuals doctor/patient relationship deciding what should be the logistics of ones healthcare plan. Simply put, “Obamacare” is but another name for government controlled healthcare for the masses that comes replete, yet unknown to most, with its own dirty little secrets...secrets such as the fact that “Obamacare” made it all but impossible for millions of hard working Americans to keep what was their individual or employee-sponsored group health insurance, and led to hundreds of thousands...possibly millions...of workers losing what was full-time, good paying jobs. How so...because the actual healthcare costs dictated by “Obamacare”..as in the costs carried by one's employer...literally became unsustainable for most business owners/employers to bear, especially when an additional “destructive tax” on all medical devices was added into the mix.
And not to be forgotten is Obama's what some call “foreign policy blunders,” but what I call his back-stabbing traitorous actions...a list that truly did go from bad to worse with number one on said list being:1. Obama's infamous “I Apologize for America” tours based upon his utter and total disdain for our U.S. armed forces even when being deployed on behalf of our national interests.
2. The disaster known as “Benghazi” which cost U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, Information Officer Sean Smith, and C.I.A. Operatives Tyrone Woods, and Glen Doherty their lives, and whose blood is clearly on Obama's and then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's hands.
3. Obama's ever so proudly signing what was the the “Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action” ...useless U.N. nonsense that has done absolutely nothing to stop or even deter Iran's nuclear ambition
4, Obama's ever infamous five Taliban terrorists for one American traitor deal.5. Obama's too numerous backstabbing betrayals of the Jewish State of Israel who is America's staunchest ally.
6. Obama's exposing his true “personal allegiance” with these 15 words, “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”
7. Obama's secret middle of the night deal where he sent $400 million dollars in cash to Iran, then as is now the world's leading sponsor of terrorism...while knowing well that said monies would likely be used to increase funding to their proxy armies...armies like Hamas and Hezbollah...in their quest to wipe Israel off the map.
And these seven “foreign policy blunders” along with the previously stated domestic based “problems” lying at his feet, are just the proverbial “tip of the iceberg” in regards to all the harm this one man has done to both our beloved America and “We the American People.” But to make it all even worse is the fact that not one of our duly elected officials, to date, has officially and publicly called Obama to task “on the record,” let alone charged him with any (I believe ) crime committed. Getting away with murder so to speak, Obama has not even been held accountable for any of the damage that he has caused out country. And why...in my opinion...it's because of fear of the “race card” once again coming into play.
And why so...because for a man like Obama who wasn't “white enough” to “pass” while growing up, he embraced his having been socially deemed to be black, after all it gave him the coveted chance to be “anointed” as America's “first black president.” And in the symbolic nature of his having fully erased his white half, Obama was able to openly embrace the radical left's “Black agenda” replete with the implementation of “white guilt.” And sadly, because a sizeable number of very vocal people “of color” continued to think about the color of their skin upon first awakening in the morning and as the last thing before going to bed at night, Obama had a dedicated group of supporters who would do and say anything to help rip open the aforementioned, once healing, racial wounds.
Also, remember that while the sum total of Obama's presidency was one of putting the wants and needs of our enemies over America herself; over “We the American People;” as well as over our country's allies and friends; it was “We the People” who suffered through eight long years of Obama shoving his race driven and overtly anti-America agenda down our collective throats. And yet Republican leaders still have done nothing of substance about it. And why...because the only logical explanation can be is that they still fear being called “racist” in both the still leftist controlled media and in the court of public opinion no matter that Trump is now, thankfully, in charge.
And while Donald Trump, during his first term as president, did try to expose the truth about Obama, his administration, and all the harm he and they did to our country, Obama...in my opinion...was able to gather together the components that became the infamous “Trump witch hunt.” And in Obama's successfully doing so, along with his knowing that Republican leaders would fear his using the “race card” against them, the stage was set for Obama's third term in office.
Remember, it was obvious to many...even before Joe Biden's physical and mental health decline became obvious...that Obama would be the one running the country. And this scenario was proven true when Biden's policies mirrored that of Obama's...not unlike two ships passing in the night...replete with a not so healthy dose of manufactured DEI policies and calls of racism being thrown in for good...or should I say bad...measure.
And so...in my opinion...the man who relished in“aiding and abetting” our nation's enemies...the man to whom “bipartisanship” was a dirty word...the man whose promised “immigration reform” turned into our open “free for all” southern border fiasco...the man who deemed “globalism” superior to “America First”...and the man whose inner racist self relished in seeing American cities burning and lives and businesses being destroyed in the name of black criminals...actually remains the shadow now hanging over all the “problems” President Trump is trying to fix today. But until the “problem” source itself is outwardly called to task...until Barack Obama is so charged and sentence adjudicated...this man will continue on to try to get what would be his “fourth term” in office. Case closed.

And while the Democrats theatrics was but a call for attention, what I saw that night was President Trump giving one of his best addresses ever...a true testament, if you will, to what is America's and Americans exceptionalism. And his words covered the important issues facing our nation today...from the border and immigration...to escalating crime rates in “blue” cities and states...to energy matters...to economics...to foreign policy...as well as to the long awaited demise of DEI and all the “woke” nonsense that overtook the political and social discourse during these past four years that Biden was in office.
Thanks to Trump's words and actions, simple “common sense” will again become the rule of the day replacing the nonsensical, anti-science, anti-medical, and anti-American indoctrination that is the hallmark of today's Democrat party.
Delivered in a direct, no nonsense manner, President Trump showed the world that he is the right man to be the “leader of the free world,” especially in these most contentious of times. A man whose true love of country and “We the People” shown through with his every word spoken...words which were countered by the Democrats courtesy of their total disdain for even the most basic of what is deemed to be American values...values which include honoring those lost and championing those who beat seemingly insurmountable odds.
Now I can understand Democrats not standing or applauding Trump's current successes...successes they fail to understand are not party exclusive but are successes for all Americans...but in these two cases I cannot abide the Democrats cold-heartedness or their disrespect shown. And the first case involves their refusing to stand or applaud to honor not just the families present but the murdered victims themselves...those murdered by illegals due to Biden's disastrous immigration policies. And the second case involves the 13-year old boy who not only beat cancer, but who wants to be a police officer now that he has a chance to grow up. To not applaud this child, his cancer battle won, or his dreams is depravity of the very worst kind.
Simply, it was President Trump who scored a grand slam home run on Tuesday night while the Democrats showed their true anti-American nasty selves. And in her party's official rebuttal it's Trump who gets the last laugh for in Elissa Slotkin stating the lie that, “In his heart, Trump doesn’t believe America is an exceptional nation,” she officially signaled her own broken party's death knell for many elections to come. Case closed.

And at times in our nation's past assorted what became known as “cultural identities” were kept somewhat in both perspective and in-check when weighing the commonalities which helped to unite our multitudes together against that which separated and divided folks of different backgrounds into what has now morphed into compartmentalized sub-categories. And it's those sub-categories that have not only become prevalent in today's America... what with the words “cultural identity” taking over the public discourse...leaving what really defines one as being an “American” to be used instead to help not only divide the very “fabric” that encompasses the entirety of what is the collective sum of “We the People,” but to shame, mock, and accuse our country of being a “racist nation” if we don't buy into the liberal rhetoric known as DEI...“diversity, equity,” and “inclusion.”
Our beloved America has also...in the name of liberal generated “political correctness”...been stripped of what unites “We the People” together simply because the “natural order of things” has been willfully corrupted and compromised solely for one party's political gain. And this, in turn, leaves those of us who still proudly call ourselves “Americans”...as in we who refuse to buy into the sub-group category known as“identity politics”...those of us who will not use hyphens, skin color, sexuality, or religious affiliation to define who we are as “Americans”...are being forced to embrace and accept into our American “cultural identity” any and everything the left chooses to label as being part of America's new “cultural norm.” And this is no matter where or why said label came to be...whether it be courtesy of dictated political discourse or simply via mainstream media rhetoric being repeated so many times that mass indoctrination itself took hold of the public discourse. Sadly, in our country today...again thanks to the far left... what is called “identity politics” has not only changed the fundamentals of “American culture,” but it has now so overwhelmed the public discourse that we find even basic level “Americanism” being shunned only to be replaced by an entity of subgroups known as “Black culture, White culture, Hispanic culture, Oriental culture, Indigenous People's culture, Christian culture, Jewish culture, Muslim culture, Gay culture, Transgender culture, Woke culture,” the list goes on ad-nauseum. In other words, what was true “American culture” has broken down to such a degree that any and all that deem themselves to be a culture unto itself is now being forcibly shoved down our throats as must be accepted components of the fabric of our nationSimply, what the leftists forget is that, at times, the sum of the whole of “American culture” is not always derived by its individual nor unique components, for such components do tend to be be added or removed when the political parties in control of power switch hands. However, what does make we “Americans” and our “culture” unique is not about the names we call ourselves nor is about TV shows watched, games played, books read, foods eaten, individual religious beliefs held or not held, or which poliical party one belongs to, but it is about that which collectively binds us together as “We the People” while encompassing our individual similarities yet understanding our multitude of individual differences.
“American culture” is also not about where one was born nor must it ever be about the color of ones skin for once we are able to look past “skin color” other more important issues might naturally start falling into place. But what “American culture” is about is the joining together of our individual differences and melding them together into an amalgam that represents the sum total of one united people...a people who believe in and cherish the rule of law and the freedoms our Constitution affords us while at the same time striving for that which is the hallmark of “American exceptionalism.” Remember, “America culture”...true “American culture”...has in it no place for hate, bigotry, or divisiveness for the culture that comprises our nation's reality must remain one of “unity” because without “unity” we as a nation will ultimately fail only to be replaced by something unrecognizable to us...something which we might never be able to return from.But, and sad as it might be, maybe America's failing is and has always been the ultimate goal of some...some who have no pride in nor love for this country coupled with their having no respect for her Constitutional rule of law. Instead, these are folks who relish in using an arsenal comprised of divisiveness, hate, violence, and fearmongering as the weapons by which to use against that what is our great “republic.” The “enemies within” now come to life...enemies usually funded in their quest by “enemies from without”...enemies who have much to gain by first culturally weaponizing certain groups of people against what is the sum of “American culture,” and then moving on from there to negating America herself.
And here I start with whom I consider to be the antithesis of what is not only tried and true “American culture” but “American exceptionalism” as well. Simply, “ground zero” from which began the corruption of said “American culture,” as well as the man who initiated and then implemented the far left turn into the cultural and moral ludicrousness that has overtaken our nation. And he did so, first by his directly stirring the pot of racial discontentment while adding into it what were decidedly adversarial social and moral narratives, and then by his hoping to at least get close to finishing the job he started courtesy of the shell of a man that is Joe Biden. But now this same man has tasked his newest puppet Kamala Harris with finishing the job Biden failed to do...while keeping his fingers crossed.
And of course I speak of Barack HUSSEIN Obama...the man who in the shadows has really been in control of the White House these past four long years...our nation's so-called first black president (he's “mixed race” actually as his mother and both maternal grandparents+ were white)...a man who took a nation almost healed from past self-inflicted racial wounds, and opened up said wounds allowing them to fester and grow solely to push forward his dream of what America and “American culture” should be. The man whose vision of “Transforming America” into a socialism driven “brown” nation sees his no longer needing to be metaphorically veiled “fourth term in office” closer to reaching its final fruition no matter that the cost to our nation, our culture, our identity, and our individual freedoms would be Constitutionally damning.
And so now as the annals of “American cultural history” continues to be written...history that must be based upon fact not upon how one man wants or doesn't want it to be written...misrepresentations still abound as to what really is meant by “American culture.”
So here I present the words of John F. Kennedy (JFK), America's 35th president...a Democrat who if alive today would be a Republican not so unlike in nature of that of our 45th and hopefully 47th President Donald J. Trump... for not only are both men's policies quite similar in nature, but so too is their wanting what's best for America and for the American people. Kennedy's famous words, “Ask not what your country can do for you...ask what you can do for your country,” puts our country not individual partisan politics first as do Trump's important words, “I want to be be president of all of America not just half of America.”
