Op-ed:
Trump v. O'Harris...A Ticket In The Making
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots / Right Side Patriots Radio

“Look. I mean, if the Lord Almighty came down and said, 'Joe, get out of the race', I'd get out of the race”...“The Lord Almighty's not coming down.”
- Joe Biden's words to ABC's George Stephanopoulos when asked this past Friday night if he would pull out of the presidential race.

As the Democrat hierarchy is now mired down in trying to work damage control with major donors after Joe Biden's recent disastrous debate performance, at the same time they're trying to decide if he should even remain their nominee come their August convention or should he be replaced before then with VP Kamala Harris. But replacing dear old Joe at this late date when the infrastructure is already in place to support the Biden/Harris ticket, leaves certain legal ramifications possibly creating more problems than keeping him on as head of the ticket no matter his becoming a drag on key House and Senate“down ticket” races as well.

And while Biden would need to be medicated to remain at least semi-functioning, his now obvious mental decline was something the liberal media knew about for years yet willingly kept silent. But now of more importance to the Democrat hierarchy is their being able to keep Barack Obama not only close at hand to pull Biden's puppet strings even tighter, but needing him to vocally step up to the plate to help convince the still economically hurting Democrat masses not to walk away from his former VP, as Obama still needs Biden to help him secure or at least pass the torch to another willing to become his fourth term in office. 

 
 
And with the number of House Democrats wanting Biden to drop out of the race continuing to grow and gain traction; and with many on both sides of the aisle now fearing Biden is a threat to national security; we find a recent CNN poll reported that 2/3 of Democrats voters still want Biden to stay in the race which I find hard to believe especially after a July 3rd NYT/Sienna poll showed 74% of Americans believing that Joe Biden was simply too old to run. In fact, a “Wall Street Journal poll” released the same day actually had that number upped to 80%...not good numbers for Biden I'd say. But Biden's being too old does not mean the Democrat masses would not still vote for him come November 5th for Democrats do tend to stick together in supporting their party's candidates, something we Republicans have proven not always to do...just ask the avowed “Never Trumpers” if you want proof.

So putting Biden's age numbers aside, it's his dwindling moments of lucidity coupled with his recently telling Democratic governors that he would no longer be scheduling any events after 8 pm so that he could “get more sleep” tells us what we really need to know, for this is an excuse usually given by someone who does not want to admit to their having “Sundowners Syndrome,” “Parkinsons Disease,” or any other neurologically related cognitive illness. But knowing or at least suspecting this to be Biden's case why then does the aforementioned 2/3 of Democrats still want him to stay in the race? Simply, while more and more Democrats don't believe that Biden has done a great job as president...as he so loves to claim...they still fear that at this late date changing the ticket would assure a Trump win, even with a replay of 2020's so-called voter “irregularities” being thrown into the mix.

And then there's this pesky little matter that Democrats would still have to attend to. Let's say Joe Biden either voluntarily withdraws from the race, does not secure the nomination at convention...remember he cannot just be removed from the ticket no matter how many in his party want it...or that he actually declines the nomination after having secured the nomination. This last scenario could well become Joe Biden's “face saving”... “for the good of the party”...legacy moment...a moment that at least would help to temper down both his and Dr. Jill's overt stubbornness in his not having left the race earlier. And this in turn would openly raise the question as to who would be Biden's replacement, with current political scuttlebutt being that the DNC choice would be none other than Biden's “word salad” talking VP Kamala Harris.

A political upheaval bar none for Kamala Harris has been the most inefficient, ineffective, and useless of all modern day VPs. And while there will likely be other replacement hopefuls...any of which would be a better choice than she is...Harris would still be left with the task of then having to “lobby” each individual state's delegation to secure their support and their new vote cast. And if Harris,“by hook or by crook,” was successful in securing the nomination she would then become yet another of Obama's puppet string dancers...not a good scenario for our country I'd say for Barack...“If I Had a Son He'd Look Like Trayvon Martin” ...Obama is “ground zero” regarding almost all the wrongs happening in our country today...my opinion and I stand by it.
 
But with Obama remaining a Democrat “tour de force” one's next logical question should be, can the DNC turn over to Harris...hence to Obama...Joe Biden's campaign “war chest” to use as her own no matter that said donations were sent specifically to the “Biden for President” campaign. And while most do know that it's been Obama directing the Biden presidency since day one, at least with Biden leading the ticket a Trump win would end Obama's hopes of securing a fourth term in office. But if Harris' leads the ticket, after all she does check off all the Democrats socially mandated minority boxes, and with Obama's help and her probably gaining Biden's monetary “war chest,” Kamala Harris could beat Donald Trump and secure for Obama his no longer needing to be veiled fourth term in office...I cannot say it any plainer than that.

An ever so dangerous scenario that could well happen because Kamala Harris is actually listed as a candidate on the official “Biden for President” account, with the “Code of Federal Regulations” itself stating in Section 103.4 regarding Vice Presidential candidate campaign depositories, that, “any campaign depository designated by the principal campaign committee of a political party’s candidate for President shall be the campaign depository for that political party’s candidate for the office of Vice President,” we now know there could well be trouble ahead.

Also, remember that the Democrats do tend to cover all bases meaning that even if Biden did drop out of the race said monies could “legally” be funneled directly into Harris' campaign while still leaving Joe Biden with the authority to direct his campaign treasurer on what to do with any still unused funds. For example, Biden could transfer those remaining funds to the DNC (who would still control the actual party committee funds and where they go); they could be redirected to a super PAC of Biden's personal choosing; or Biden could authorize the divvying up of any remaining contributions and parcel them out to other campaigns...“down ticket” House and Senate campaigns perhaps.

Simply, what would transpire would be a healthy dose of suddenly found monies being funneled into what in reality would be a just getting started Harris presidential campaign... monies that as per the Biden campaign's May 31st official financial filing to the Federal Election Committee (FEC), showed his campaign as having $91.6 million in cash on hand, while the DNC said it had almost $65.2 million on hand, thus totaling $156.8 million that could go to help Kamala Harris become president. 

That's a huge amount of monies contributed to the Biden/Harris campaign by a lot of clueless people in addition to the monies Michelle Obama...who I first thought might be another possible nominee...is now reported to be asking a growing number of wealthy black donors to contribute to what well might become a Kamala Harris for president campaign...or to be a bit more precise an “O'Harris for President” campaign.

But not so surprisingly we now find out that there's even more monies involved for at the end of June the Biden campaign itself claimed there was now $240 million in the “Biden/Harris” so-called “war chest” which includes the campaign itself, the DNC, and designated “joint fundraising committees.”

So with that figure Biden's people want us to believe that in one months time after their FEC filing and with the issues continuously arising about Biden's cognitive and physical failings, that a bit over $82 million additional dollars was raised for a man, who at times, doesn't know where he is let alone who he is. And you can hear these failings for yourself in the below snippets of a Philadelphia radio interview done just mere days after the debate where Biden claimed not only to be a black woman, but stated that “I'm the first president that got elected statewide in the state of Delaware when I was a kid.” Really Joe...I seriously think not.

 
 
 
Bottom line...Obama has always been running the “Joe Show” as he's always used Biden as his third term in office, but even he never expected to see Biden implode from within as fast as he now has. But now with such large sums monies available to Kamala Harris all Obama has to do is make sure she does become the Democrat nominee. After that's in place Obama can work on helping to turn what should be an issues based campaign into yet another witch hunt style 2020 scenario, no matter that the majority of Americans...both Democrats and Republicans financially still hurting due to nonsense like “Bidenomics” and a border policy that in a word, “sucks”...don't be surprised when seeing inconsequential social issues being the “divert and deflect” crux of a Harris campaign. And why...because the true issues facing Americas today are issues way above both Kamala Harris' mental and emotional pay grade leaving her to run to Obama for help...enough said. Case closed.

Op-ed:
War...America is Indeed at War

By: Diane Sori

"War is the wrong terminology."
- Secretary of State John 'Swiftboat' Kerry trying to claim that America is NOT at war with ISIS

WAR...guess Kerry just does NOT know what constitutes war...or just does NOT want to accept the fact that once again America is at war...this time being dragged into war by a president who fears declaring war for political reasons alone and who has NO idea or desire to fight a war so that America wins.

And Kerry's cluelessness as to what is war could easily be solved if he went to a dictionary and looked it up for if he did he'd find that war is simply any conflict carried on by force of arms between nations or between parties within a nation whether it be by land, sea, or air...as in a state or period of armed hostility or active military operations. And war...albeit a very limited and targeted war...is exactly what Barack HUSSEIN Obama initiated when he ordered the first bomb to be dropped on ISIS. (article continues below video)

And with John 'Swiftboat' Kerry obviously clueless...deliberately clueless perhaps... as to what makes certain actions...even limited actions...a war...he just does NOT get that even Obama's ’NO strategy' strategy is indeed an act of war...a misguided war but a war nevertheless...a war maybe NOT against a country per se but a war against an enemy within a country just the same.

“What we are doing is engaging in a very significant counter-terrorism operation, and it's going to go on for some period of time." While Kerry might be right to some degree about the fact that this conflict will indeed be going on for quite some time...the fact is it does NOT have to if Obama would act like a true Commander-in-Chief and give the order to 'shock and awe' the savages called ISIS back to the bowels of hell from which they came. And Kerry's continuing bloviations that "many different things that one doesn’t think of normally in context of war,” do indeed meet the definition of war.

And as Kerry keeps addressing what amounts to NOTHING more than semantics what he should be addressing...but obviously will NOT...is the fact that Obama is trying to defeat ISIS without American 'boots on the ground' and without Arab 'boots on the ground' as well. And this anything but a true strategy is sadly doomed to fail... deliberately and calculatedly doomed to fail...for with ISIS completely melded into the civilian populace in the major cities of Mosul, Fallujah, and Ramadi, it will take hard-core urban warfare...a door-to-door, hand-to-hand campaign if you will...to clear all of ISIS out of Iraq and Obama knows it. But his hoping that with some additional training and with some additional weapons this will allow Iraqi forces to do the job on their own is at best misguided thinking...outright dangerous thinking at worst...for Obama knows damn well that Iraqi troops have high-tailed it and ran in the past when the going got tough and he knows that without American troops by their side they will do so again...allowing ISIS to grow stronger, bolder, and more determined than ever before.

And stronger ISIS continues to grow as what was approximately 7,000 or so members back in June has now...according to the CIA...grown into an army of 31,500+ members (some estimates by other sources are as high as 80,000 members)...31,500+ members with each and every one of them determined 'in the name of allah' to kill us all. Picking up new members as they stormed through town after town in Iraq, ISIS has grown into and operates as a government of sorts as it's ISIS alone that now provides...or withholds...electricity, food, and water to the towns they take over.

And ISIS has NEVER hidden their goal of establishing a Sunni caliphate NO matter how many times Obama croaks that ISIS is NOT islamic. And ISIS is well on its way to that goal as they now... according to some estimates...control about 35,000 square miles extending from Syria though Iraq...a current swath of land roughly the size of Jordan...a swath of land with over 6 million people now living under their control...a swath of land that grows with each passing day. And ISIS has cash and assets on hand...a war chest if you will...of up to $2,000,000,000 (well above the assets of other terrorists groups like the Taliban and Hezbollah which only have assets of about half a million dollars each)...as well as garnering $3,000,000 a day on the black market from its captured oil and gas fields from which they can continually replenish their war chest.

But while ISIS has most assuredly grown into the most powerful militant group in Iraq...the most powerful militant group ever...its stranglehold on Iraq does rely to some degree on negotiating with smaller militant groups to forge alliances with them. And these groups include the notorious Mujahedeen Army, the 1920 Revolution Brigades, Ansar al-Islam/Ansar al-Sunna, the Army of Muhammad, and others all fighting against the current Iraqi government...all currently tied in with ISIS, but all still operating somewhat independently on their own or in conjunction with al-Qaeda, the very terrorist group that has deemed ISIS to radical, brutal, and extreme even for them.

And these alliances mean that ISIS is NOT as invincible as they and others think for alliances can be broken and new sides taken, and that fact can be 'manipulated' and used to help implode ISIS from within while at the same time having ISIS hit from without. But this would require strong and dedicated alliances on our side along with highly detailed strategic coordination that this president is simply incapable of doing...strategy that includes both a non-stop carpet bombing campaign that hits ISIS in both Iraq and Syria simultaneously so that ISIS has nowhere to run, coupled with the afore mentioned strong alliance of both Arab and American 'boots on the ground.'

But such alliances we sadly do NOT have as the commitment of the nine nations Obama says he has on board is weak at best as NO deal has yet been worked out with Turkey (as I write this), the Saudis big contribution (sarcastically said) to this alliance is to help train some Sunni forces to fight against ISIS (which will bring Iran into the mix for they will in turn then aid the opposing Shi'ite forces cancelling out whatever the Saudis do); Britain and Germany have announced that they will NOT join Obama's air campaign against Syria; Jordan refuses to say publicly it is in the fight; and the Arab world continues to question where Obama's true loyalties lie even though it's obvious to most that he sides time and again with his brethren over the country he was elected to lead.

So even with the facts presented, the bottom line for some...some like John 'Swiftboat' Kerry and Barack HUSSEIN Obama...remains a battle of semantics as are we at war with ISIS or are we NOT in a war with ISIS...but semantics and words mean little when the truth is that whatever words one chooses to use the end result is that the savages known as ISIS are indeed out to kill us all.
