Ramping up to yet another exciting election. I say that with tongue-in-cheek.
Already we have Donald Trump, the ultimate showman, making a mockery of the political establishment. His "tell it like he see's it " rhetoric is making the establishment very nervous, but, is down right entertaining. He has said some things that are touching nerves within the party he has chosen to be part of. Naturally, others in the realm of candidates for president have begun the much anticipated attacks. After all that is how the system works. Discredit the opponent, but, don't discuss any real issues or offer any solutions.
Speaking of political attacks.......how about the continued attempts to assassinate Mrs. Clintons character. She is the ultimate politician and probably the most qualified candidate to become President. I say this because she is adept at politicking and that is the primary requirement for ascending to our highest office. At this time the Donkey party has no alternative. The Pachyderm party has the modern version of Barnum and Bailey leading in the polls. Both leading candidates are adept at saying a lot without saying anything. Both are spending most of their time explaining what they said or did and backtracking. Lets embrace the fact that they are the front runners and engage them with worthwhile discussions about how they would solve some of our major problems. Lets start with how we pull ourselves out of Trillions of dollars of debt. Then lets tackle a crumbling infrastructure. Lets talk about how to reshape our pathetic wimpy foreign relations. Lets start restructuring our political system so we are more effective at solving problems in the best interest of all Americans. How about how we can deal with real threats to the world (ISIS) and not how we can prevent something that has yet to happen (Iran and the Bomb). Stop the bullshit about gun control and toughen up on crime and PUNISHMENT. How about an actual war on drugs. National health care that really is affordable. ETC....
What the heck........I think I will throw my hat in the ring. I would be a good President. I have no political or special interest ties. I am a pretty good problem solver. I have been called a character.... thats close to having character!!!!
