Ron Paul. The Thinking African-American's Candidate

Black people flocking to Ron Paul in droves.

J.C. said...: If black people are flocking to that jack ass then they are ignorant black people.
Politicians, local or national, are not chosen by the public on the basis of competence or knowledge but rather in terms of personality and promises.
Likewise, heads of governmental departments are chosen not for competence, expertise or experience but for their personal ideology and for conformity to a particular "party" line and their willingness to play the game as directed.

They do not necessarily have to know anything at all about the functions and services they are to direct.
The Secretary of Labor does not necessarily have to be one who has ever been a worker. The Secretary of Education does not have to have been an educator.
The person selected to head the Department of Defense , which is basically a functionally technical realm, is chosen without regard for any knowledge he may have in military strategy, logistics, etc., since it is now primarily a money-management agency. The important thing is that they are willing to "toe the line" in accord with the prevailing political and financial ideology.

Being that your blog is slanted to the religiously bigoted, and also the hate mongering aspects of back ass, back ward thoughts connected in that area (hatred of gays, disliking independent women, etc) and given that you are a devotee` also of our civil society bullshit construct from Babylon, no doubt you resonate with 'just another political crackpot' that is not creative.
In other words a Price System advocate straight from the legions of Babylon. Ha ha.; Oct 30, 2007, 12:05:00 PM

"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."

The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
