ACTION’S SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS, NO MATTER HOW THEY SAY IT!
The only thing Donald Trump is guilty of, is using his 1st A right, a right that has been trampled on severely by the left mostly. The reason why politicians fear him, is because he means business, Donald Trump is telling the ugly truth, and naturally people either can’t handle the truth and/or don’t want to hear the truth.
A couple of months ago, I had a conversation with a woman, (I’ll call her Donna), who works part time @ my technology school I attended earlier this year, we talked about life & work, she’s about my age. During that conversation she brought up her boss who is a female, & the trouble she has had with her, legal trouble that is.
Donna had climbed the corporate ladder once before, and now in this company where she works full time, but this time around she’s blocked by this woman on many different levels from succeeding, much less keeping her job. Suddenly while we are talking, Donna said “I would work for a man any day over a woman.” She said most woman in power are difficult people in the work place. Now I’m not going into that arena, & have my own opinion on the matter, but for sake of argument, let’s just say I don’t have an opinion on the matter. However, Carolyn my wife of 28 yrs, has been in charge previously, and her subordinates enjoyed her.
Having said that, the reason I mentioned that is because gender doesn’t matter, a leader comes in all colors, shapes & sizes, don’t vote for a person based on their gender and or color, the soul inside that body has no gender, nor color, women know this better than men, “don’t judge a book by it’s cover.” Something my Grandfather use to say, God rest his soul.
I think #Killary is a misandrist, a closet dictator, equivalent to Pablo Escobar, a dead drug lord from Venezuela, who is responsible for Vince Foster’s death, as well as those four brave soldiers who were murdered in #Benghazi 9-11-2012 on her watch. She has never answered for that crime. I’m a U.S. Army Veteran and I take that personally, those brave men fought for their lives that night, most of them for “13 hrs,” please see that movie b.t.w., I know most Veterans take that personally, and we all know all to well the politicians interacting, or causing chaos with the military.
Think about what happened in #Benghazi, think about it for along time, then ask yourself, “do I really want to vote for HRC?”
My wife & I are in dire straits financially right now, we can’t afford another 4 yrs of Obama through #killary. The blame primarily falls squarely on the Democratic policies brought forth from when they took over the house in 2006, over all causing inflation, the housing collapse, the DOW plummeting more than 50%. George Bush has been blamed, that’s because the democrats are very good @ pointing the finger @ the GOP blaming them for everything, but when you look @ the actual record, i.e. 2005 compare it to 2007, apples & oranges, clearly it was the D’s policies that destroyed our economy. Subsequently of course Obama manages to become elected, and he immediately got behind the minimum wage debacle, then bribed enough politicians to pass O’BOMB 0CARE, exactly what it became, a BOMB went off, and there was ZERO care. “The Affordable Care Act,” will go down as one of the largest tax increases in our history. During Obama’s he has maxed out the credit cards, the very same cards he blamed Bush for over spending, Bush pales by comparison, doubling our national debt, #20 trillion dollars. #Killary supports all of those policies, and she doesn’t address how we will pay that off, nor does she talk about how she will revive the economy, – that is anything that makes any sense. Donald Trump under his plan will dramatically cut our taxes, and like her husband 1992, will dramatically increase our taxes that will put us all on the Soup-line.
The powers that be, Obama & Clinton never lifted a finger to rescue those patriots. that is treason, a #fact >>> read what the founders have to say by such a cowardly act, or no act for that matter. I know more about Donald Trump than most people, and Donald Trump is the finest of American’s as was Ronald Reagan.
Ronald Reagan faced the same #propaganda and #rhetoric bc he was a former liberal democrat, an actor, but more importantly he was the closest to being a civilian as possible for a politician. He was called a cowboy, foreign leaders feared Ronald Reagan, as did politicians inside the beltway, they thought he would launch the nuclear warheads, as they R saying about Trump now. As a matter of fact there is a NY Times article which is a laughable joke >>> http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/05/opinion/campaign-stops/i-ran-the-cia-now-im-endorsing-hillary-clinton.html?mwrsm=Email&_r=0 talking about how Donald Trump is a threat to our National Security, the same thing they said about Reagan. As you all know, Reagan went on to be one of the utmost Presidents since at least Abraham Lincoln. Ronald Reagan pulled our boys out of Beirut, as he should have, and brought peace between Russia and the U.S. Recently Trump has been ridiculed by the left wing media over his desire to unite the sovereign nation Russia with the US, instead of reporting/criticizing Obama’s 2 very expensive deals with a terrorist nation, and #Benghazi, which #killary crafted.
Ronald Reagan became very good friends with Gorbachev, btw M.G. was a communist, but a president of a sovereign nation, all the same, in other words; not on the terrorist list.
Lastly why isn’t anyone illuminating #HRC’s incompetence in the left wing main stream media?? I hate her condescending tone whenever she speaks, Carolyn & I won’t watch her when she talks, she is a rotten terrible person, I’ve done my homework on her for more than 20 yrs, her inner circle fears her, rather than revere her, her closest confident back in the 90’s was Vince Foster, WH lawyer, he was found dead in a public park with a suicide note, #Really?
But let’s not get into semantics, how does #killary qualify to be President? Don’t tell me she’s a woman, PLEASE! New York use to be the melting pot of political incorrectness back in the day, today – well you know. B.T.W. #killary vacillates with political correctness, if you R #neverTrump then you R for HRC, plain and simple.
Donald Trump is old school, that’s when America worked it’s best, now we need to bring back what worked, our country is at some cross roads, and people need to WAKE UP and get over it, pay attention, find the #facts, this is not a personality contest, this is about our country, our survival of independence. Think about the Veterans who served this country honorably, think about the ultimate sacrifice my brothers @ Arms paying the price of your freedom with their lives. Ask most Veterans who you think will take great care of this country, if they are honest, you will be surprised @ what comes out of their mouths.
Obama presidency to end with $20 trillion national debt – Washington Times
I remember back in 2010 hearing from the experts that we will see 20 trillion by 2020, now I don’t know if they were trying to be funny, or not idk, but I remember thinking, not at the spending rate we are going at right now. Well what do I know, I’m not an expert.
This is going to sound like a cliche, and it is, “Obama has spent & ran up more cc debt than all the other President’s combined.” The Liberal Pundits like to talk about Reagan and his spending, with out mentioning it was authorized by a very heavy Democratically controlled Congress that gave him the money. To Ronald Reagan’s credit, he always used the money to make things better for this country, i.e. gave us our money back simultaneously building our very weak deplorable military defense back up, and restoring our economy. This extraordinary militarily build up is why we still exist today, and why we are the super power that we are today.
Although not a good idea to run up the cc, but WE THE PEOPLE got something for our money, so to speak. George W Bush was able to give us a roaring economy simultaneously winning the war on terrorism. Not to mention undoing the damage Clinton created upon our Veterans, health/pay.
But let’s stay in the 21st century, shall we? Ronald Reagan & George W. gave us a return on our spending/cc debt. So now the question is, how have we benefited from Obama’s loading 10 trillion dollars onto the credit card? First hand I can tell you the Veterans are not getting what illegal aliens are getting in this country from the Government, that is shameful. Recently, I’ve been phoning the V.A. about some of their “programs that help vets.” and I ‘m hearing #noFunding. Of course then there is ca$h for clunkers, or how about Obamacare, minimum wage increase. How did these programs, just to name a few, benefit us? I lost 2 jobs because of the later.
Ten trillion dollars, where is it all going? My God! Why do we still have poverty in this country? Obama & his band of brotherhood, the Dumicrat’s say they champion these issues, like poverty. In the last few weeks I’ve seen people out on the street looking for food, money to pay their utility bills. There are hundreds, if not thousands of Veteran’s homeless today, and I’m living in one of the better areas of the country, in terms of the economy, and we have a vet homeless problem. Tidewater Virginia, is Vet city, with 480’000 Veterans residing here. I don’t understand. Again ten trillion dollars of the American’s money, this isn’t the Governments money.
If the Govt had given just, say 2 million dollars to each American, total cost, roughly 700 million dollars, not even a blip on the radar, when you think of ten trillion dollars, do you think that would have solved the economic problems in this country, with that solution alone?
The Government says that’s absurd, the American people cannot be trusted. Well the Government now has us 20 trillion dollars in the hole, spending 1 million dollars a minute, with nothing to show for it, except an out of control stock market, I would say the Government cant’ be trusted.
President Obama doesn’t want you to know that his legacy will read; Barrack Obama, or what ever his name is > Debt King. The sole creator of 10 Trillion dollars of debt, coupled with not dealing with the debt when he became President.
As I had pointed out earlier, there was no need for Obama to run up the cc 10 trillion dollars. If the Government had a budget amendment, by law, forcing them to live well below their means, Obama wouldn’t have had to charge one dime to that card.
Lastly, my neighbors said to me on Halloween night that they wanted Ben Carson for President, they didn’t give me a reason, except because they like him. That’s fine, but they don’t like Trump, and they said, “don’t forget he went bankrupt a few times. Now I’m older than them bot by at least 10 yrs, and they know I’m politically savvy, so to say something like that to me, well to be nice, is naive to say the least. The truth is, Trump never went bankrupt personally because he insulated himself from any trouble. If anyone knows anything about business, there is no guarantee you will succeed, and that is not a crime. The founders knew that, that’s why they inserted a tool to be able to start all over again. Bankruptcy is insurance, available to all the American people.
When Trump says he used it as a strategy, what he was saying there is that if the business fails, he will pull the bankruptcy card, and that tool along with some other tools furnished by the founders kept him safe from any legal or financial harm. The problem is most of the American people don’t know about these tools, Donald Trump was morally correct for trying to do what most people and that is to protect yourself and you r family from being harmed.
The reason I bring this all up, is that who ever becomes President, that person is going to be faced with 20 trillion dollars in debt through at least 2017. We are not going to be able to pay that off. We are going to need an expert negotiator, and someone who knows how to use the bankruptcy card, metaphorically speaking. WE THE PEOPLE are going to have to take our nice hat off, and put on the hard nosed not so nice hat, and vote in the best qualified candidate for President. In my most humblest opinion, that is the Trumpster. My advice to you, do your homework here, don’t listen to the pundits on either side. http://www.usdebtclock.org/

Words of Wisdom…..Samuel Adams…..
“The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks… It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation… if we should…be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.”
– Samuel Adams
WHY NOT DONALD TRUMP?
Plz share the following among your inner circles, and leave a comment >>>>>
The President Of The United States is our leadership, Congress constitutionally represents the American people. Ultimately WE THE PEOPLE have the power. The Founders had it right the first time. The problem lies within our own backyards. WE THE PEOPLE – the majority of us dropped the ball @ one point. Now The American people need to rise up as did our ancestors, and use the tools that our founders provided us, that our ancestors did not have. We have everything we need – now we need to organize, rally and aggressively move forward. Right now we need to pick the right candidate for President, in my opinion the only one for the job right now is The Donald.
My belief is that we Warm Blooded Patriots of our Country we call America, need to stand United under our current system of Govt and make things happen in our country, we don’t need a political party per se, what we need are a few good people in the right places, and the majority of us to support them as long as they are doing what we tell them to do.
Btw, and this is not in hostility, or am I trying to pick a fight here, not by a long shot, there are some followers in here that do not like Trump. I respect that, so I thought we could open a dialogue about Trump, the pros and cons, and ur reason for not supporting him. And if not Trump, knowing our current system of Government, being that we chose a candidate to represent our party, #GOP, who then would u chose and Y? I am a United States Army Veteran, and a strict Constitutionalist, I believe The Founders had it right the first time.
Been around the block a gazillian times, I’ve seen it all. I joined the GOP back in the 80’s when Ronald Reagan became President. I remember the tumultuous times of the 60s and 70s, #Vietnam #Inflation those were tough times. In short, there is no perfect candidate, there just isn’t, these men are flawed humans as we all are.
Having said all of that, Trump is the first Presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan that is politically incorrect, that to me is a big big sign of someone that doesn’t care about a Political Career, that tells me and i will quote Duke, Apollos coach in “Rocky” “He doesn’t know it’s a damn show. He thinks it’s a damn fight!”
Our Success is hinged upon Us The American People, no one else. Our self Government is our responsibility. Don’t say that We cannot change things. I f you believe that go study the American Revolution, and read about George Washington then you will believe we can >>>>>
#TR-i-UMP-h
Donald Trump slashes taxes for poor — and wealthy…..
ReagaNomics 101. Cut taxRATES thereby the Vanguard for creating economic growth, it worked for Trump & Millions of Americans then, 1980s, it will work for all of us now. Would Ronald Reagan approve of the TRUMPSTER?
The reality is the Federal Govt steals money we’ve earned, that we will never see again, from our paychecks, unconstitutionally.
The 16th Amendment established July 1909, was ruled by the SCOTUS at the time, as unconstitutional. And if you know your history, and you know or have tried to understand any of the Constitution, you will know that I’m correct.
Btw, this is an example of how much power the SCOTUS really has, NADA! Only Congress has the authority to pass laws, or to ratify the constitution. Because the founders left us the keys to the car, we are responsible for Congress. The founders never intended a tax levy system on our income.
Remember folks just because you hear Amendment doesn’t mean the founders had their blessings on it. The Framers believed in consumption tax if any, the Constitution would be meaningless if they believed in the progressive income tax system in place today. Think about that, it’s just common sense.
Ask yourself this question; would any of the Constitution 39 signers agree to such a scheme? The whole premise of the Constitution, and all the documents quite frankly was to empower the people with self Government and to abolish omnipresent Government subjugating it’s people, like the Govt we have now. Did the majority OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE agree to the progressive tax system we have now, taking money out of our paychecks? That would be a resounding, NO!
There is a reason why the Framers did not Amend the constitution, by adding an Amendment such as the the 16thA. If they thought the Progressive tax system in place today would have been helpful to the American people, they would have included it then. The 16thA didn’t happen until over 100 years later. What changed since say 1790, when the 12th Amendment was enacted, and 1909? Do your homework, and find out. Please, don’t take my word for it, the only way you will ever know your truth, your history, is if you research yourself, that’s 50% of it, the rest comes from life experience.
One interesting note here however, the Framers left the executive branch in charge of the Federal agencies, all agencies, the ones present then, i.e. the Treasury, and now such as the Treasury that so happens to be the parent of the I.R.S. Now the POTUS has no jurisdiction over shutting the I.R.S. down, only Congress has that authority, however the POTUS has full authority of the operations of the Internal Revenue Service, which means he’s the boss. I will leave you now to ponder that insight-fullness
Donald Trump once again leads the country into what we are going to talk about, this time money and taxes, the main artery of our Capitalism driven society. Listen to the video, below by clicking the link after the 2 talking heads are done talking about whatever, their opinion, continue to watch the video and Trump talks about his proposal. Folks is there anymore we need to hear from this man before we nominate him for President?
Donald Trump is vowing to drastically cut income taxes for millions of Americans across the wealth spectrum while casting aside loopholes popular on Wall Street.

Jeb Bush flip Flop
Look, we like to say we are a people of immigrants, and that’s nice and that’s a fact of life. And I know of at least one ancestor in my family bloodline that came over on the Mayflower, an original settler. Note those people were Governed by England’s rule of law at the time.
Having said that, people who try and ingratiate the minorities in this country, by saying that, is naive. We are living in 2015, not 1895. The time is now, not then. The past is the past. Btw we had immigration laws in place in 1895, and they worked just fine. That’s how we all came to be here.
There are 2 movies out there today RED DAWN -1984 AND A REMAKE 2012, (the 2012 version is on Netflix) that every American should watch. Now this movie is about military invasions on American soil, from a foreign entity. What I see going on today in America – 2015, is an invasion of a different kind, an auspicious slow, subtle, almost surreptitious program to devalue American eroding our border’s, language and culture, the American way of life our Founders, God bless their souls, set fourth for us. Our Constitution does not stem from emotion, it stems from logical thought.
Ok enough said, do your homework, open your eyes, especially you Jeb Bush, and I assume your wife came here legally. BTW I don’t think Trump was out of line pointing out you Jeb that you have a dog in the fight, in terms of your wife being Latino. Does anyone believe otherwise?
A partial definition of a politician, is to curry favor. REALLY. Which is what he’s trying to do now with his multiculturalism angle. This game is played on both sides of the fence for at least the past 20 yrs. Now attempt to pander to the right, that you’ve seen the light and tell us what we want to hear. Meanwhile you don’t believe what ur saying right now, and if you should get into office, you’ll just kick start the amnesty plan again. Has anyone heard TRUMP change his position on illegal immigration?
America is not a refugee camp, if I’m wrong, show me where that’s the case in the Constitution. We are a Republic, a system of Govt alleged to be lead by the American people. And quite frankly what we have here, is a system of Govt that is out of control, and as usual, and I’m old enough to say this, squashing our freedoms, leading us right down the hole to be just like most 3rd world country’s, dependent on Big Govt.
This is a Govt issue now, that has gotten out of control, and the sheeple in this country are not in control, confused about there priorities. The American people depend on Govt to solve the problems, and rationalize this issue because they feel powerless! We are the fly in the jar, and the lid is off. WAKE UP AMERICA!

In God We Trust is on our currency, “is that against the law?”
Or Unconstitutional?
This was a comment made on Fox & Friends on 9-7-2015
What’s your verdict on these vehicles? Police cars in Texas are showcasing “In God We Trust” decals – but now a national watchdog group says this is an unlawful endorsement of religion. What do you think? Should these decals be allowed to stay??
My Response >
In God We Trust is on our currency, is that against the law? We R guaranteed Religious freedom under the constitution. We R a self governed people, the Govt works for us, we have the last say.
Separation of church and state was intended to keep Govt at bay. SCOTUS is not upholding the Constitution. Congress was given the power by the people only to author law, not SCOTUS, and WE THE PEOPLE under the constitution control Congress.
Thomas Jefferson had issues with the Federal system of Govt, and our Judicial branch. We need to stop running to the Court system to solve every problem that occurs, we need Representatives that will enforce the peoples will. And a POTUS who will lead and not follow. http://politicalsleightofhand.com
John Boehner just endured the biggest revolt against a House speaker in more than 150 years
Within 12 months of his new SpeakerShip, 2010, John Boehner demonstrated no leadership what so ever, just whining about Obama thereby confirming my gut feeling about him. I mean when he cried on the House floor, really, what was that all about? Was he really scared?
Finally, the House is going to rid itself of his SpeakerShip. If for no other reason he needs to pay for Obamacare, in my opinion he is worse than Obama. I’m proud of the GOP, doing the right thing. The Democrats should have done the same with Nancy “bi partisanship”Pelosi.
I give credit to the Trumpster for this ousting, Trumps back bone appears to be influencing some in Congress, let’s hope so. If that’s so, then perhaps the GOP will delightfully surprise us, I tread those waters lightly, 🙂 There is hope.

Check it =======> In Ronald Reagan’s own words…….
Ronald Reagan knew the answer in solving our problems lye with the American people. He also knew, The founders never intended for us to rely on Govt for solutions to our problems. Ronald Reagan knew that all to well. First of all, Govt doesn’t have any solutions, they are one of our problems to solve. Today, there is a very elongated extensive trail of wreckage on our path right behind us.
Never forget America the strength you posses, the power you possess to yield Govt expansion, and the unbridled sheer freedom that you are in control of, your inalienable right from God, not from Govt. Remember my fellow patriots, your ancestors fought the King of England, one of the most powerful Rulers/Govts in that 18th century, and in the end sent his royal ass back where it belonged.
Time after time again we turn to Govt to solve our problems, i.e. recently turning to SCOTUS to decide if GAYS have special rights, or turning to Govt to solve our educational problems. Another one is we’ve turned the presidency into an economic head quarters. America voted in Obama to fix the economy, really!
However, notwithstanding; as you’ll see below Ronald Reagan believed we had the tools, the resources, the sheer true grit of recycling the wreckage behind us, and the tenacious wherewithal coupled with our industrious ingenuity to rebuild a new America. The history of the 19th & 20th centuries prove that beyond a shadow of doubt. Obama & Hillary have no track record, but clearly the American people have one hell of a track record. We most certainly can do that again, rebuild our America, the one our ancestors left for us to watch over.
January 11, 1989 — Ronald Reagan’s farewell address to the nation
“I’ve spoken of the shining city all my political life…. And how stands the city on this winter night? … After 200 years, two centuries, she still stands strong and true to the granite ridge, and her glow has held no matter what storm. And she’s still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home.”
Never forget America the strength you posses, no tolerance for capitulation, the unbridled sheer freedom that you are in control of, your inalienable right from God, not from Govt.
Remember my fellow patriots, your ancestors fought the King of England, one of the most powerful Rulers/Govts in 18th century, and in the end they kicked his arrogant ass back across the seas.
The founders were in fact our relatives; merchants, farmers, business people, regular every day folks, just their decedents. We are no different than those brave men & women who won our independence both on the battlefront and the domestic front. Ok, we have smart phones today, but I assure you this, we have more tools & resources available to us than they could ever imagine. We must find a way to set America back on the right course of unlimited freedom before we perish, or independence will perish for sure………
June 1952 — From a commencement address at Williams Woods College, one of the oldest surviving speeches of Reagan’s
“I, in my own mind, have always thought of America as a place in the divine scheme of things that was set aside as a promised land. It was set here and the price of admission was very simple: the means of selection was very simple as to how this land should be populated. Any place in the world and any person from those places; any person with the courage, with the desire to tear up their roots, to strive for freedom, to attempt and dare to live in a strange and foreign place, to travel halfway across the world was welcome here.”
October 27, 1964 — from “The Speech”
“You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children’s children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.”
March 31, 1976 — from his “To Restore America” speech, which included one of many references to his experiences during the Depression
“No one who lived through the Great Depression can ever look upon an unemployed person with anything but compassion. To me, there is no greater tragedy than a breadwinner willing to work, with a job skill but unable to find a market for that job skill. Back in those dark depression days I saw my father on a Christmas eve open what he thought was a Christmas greeting from his boss. Instead, it was the blue slip telling him he no longer had a job. The memory of him sitting there holding that slip of paper and then saying in a half whisper, ‘That’s quite a Christmas present,’ it will stay with me as long as I live.
1980 — during the 1980 presidential campaign
“A recession is when your neighbor loses his job. A depression is when you lose yours. And recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his.”
July 17, 1980 — from his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention
“[The Democrats] say that the United States has had its days in the sun, that our nation has passed its zenith.… My fellow citizens, I utterly reject that view.”
January 20, 1981 — from his first inaugural address
“It is not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work — work with us, not over us; stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. This Administration’s objective will be a healthy, vigorous, growing economy. ”
Summer 1981
“I hope the people on Wall Street will pay attention to the people on Main Street. If they do, they will see there is a rising tide of confidence in the future of America.”
February 4, 1986 — from the State of the Union Address
“Government growing beyond our consent had become a lumbering giant, slamming shut the gates of opportunity, threatening to crush the very roots of our freedom. What brought America back? The American people brought us back — with quiet courage and common sense; with undying faith that in this nation under God the future will be ours, for the future belongs to the free.”
January 11, 1989 — farewell address to the nation
“I’ve spoken of the shining city all my political life…. And how stands the city on this winter night? … After 200 years, two centuries, she still stands strong and true to the granite ridge, and her glow has held no matter what storm. And she’s still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home.”

“The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter their Constitutions of Government. But the Constitution which at any time exists, till changed by an explicit and authentic act of the whole people, is sacredly obligatory upon all.”
