Let’s be honest. The choices we have for president next year are very flawed. You can find something you don’t like about every candidate.
Some voters will close their eyes to flaws in order to vote against someone over some issue they don’t like, while others will vote for someone who has issues because of one issue they do like.
That’s our choice next year. It’s not even about the “lesser of two evils.”
At some point you do have to decide what’s important to you. Is it saving Social Security and eliminating the “double tax” that Democrats support?
Is it a president who is so weak like Joe Biden that he can’t stand up to a foreign country and gives it $14 billion to continue the carnage of civilians in the Gaza Strip? Some 17,000 are dead, and that includes 6,000 women and children.
Or, is it a former president who has a disrespect for women, urged a “Muslim Ban” that was exaggerated by the biased, racist news media? He banned six Muslim countries engaged in terror violence but did nothing to stop Muslims from coming into the U.S. from the 44 other Muslim countries.
Or, do you throw away a vote for a candidate with a mixed message, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is challenging the incumbent but who is also equally hated by the mainstream news media?
To me, the priority is to ask: who does the biased and racist mainstream news media hate the most and is trying to stop? Whoever the media hates the most is probably the candidate who is best overall, for this country.
The second priority is to look for an issue that is so important that you can forgo the failings of all of our failed leaders.
For me Robert F. Kennedy is the best choice, if he had a chance to win, because he wants to do what no other politician has had the courage to do; release all of the files involving the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963.
Kennedy wrote recently: “Who killed President John F. Kennedy?” The 1992 Kennedy Records Assassination Act mandated the release of all records related to the JFK assassination by 2017. Trump refused to release the records. Biden refused to release the records. What is so embarrassing that the CIA is afraid to show the American public 60 years later?”
The media hates Kennedy because he criticized the COVID-19 vaccines, vaccinations that generated billions for the powerful pharmacy industry, which directs millions into the pockets of elected politicians. The media doesn’t allow you to question the vaccines or the response to COVID-19 without bullying you with name-calling.
We never got the truth of what happened. The more they suppress information, the clearer it is the government is lying to protect Lyndon Baines Johnson; the anti-JFK Dallas police; the corrupt FBI chief who hated JFK, J. Edgar Hoover; the Chicago outfit angered because JFK targeted them after they helped him get elected; and the powers driving the Vietnam War, which JFK was planning to end.
The conspiracy to protect the real killers is based on a belief the American people are stupid. That’s motivation for almost all of the country’s bad policies, failing to ignore American concerns.
I may not agree with everything Trump did, but he is certainly better than Biden, who is covering up his son’s corruption and blurring profits he shared when he was vice president.
The biased news media has confused that issue so badly because Biden is their “boy,” even though he is not completely “there.”
But who cares about this country anyway, right?
We give billions of dollars and deplete our military arms stockpiles to help a foreign country massacre civilians.
We claim to care about senior citizens but we punish them with a double tax on Social Security, allowing the insurance industry to bludgeon them with confusing Medicare cost plans.
We close our eyes to what I believe was the murder of sex maniac Jeffery Epstein in a New York prison, because he might disclose the names and actions of all the Washington powers who enjoy sex with a coterie of underage girls. Epstein’s list included America’s most powerful politicians and corporate CEOs.
At some point, you stand up instead of hiding in the tall news media weeds and you see the truth. Powers who place their special interests above yours.
You need to make decisions based on what’s best for you, not them.
Your vote should be about your concerns, not the concerns of others disguised by media complicity.
Don’t address any issues by calling me names. People who call me names do so because they can’t speak to the facts.
