In an age, when Seattle’s
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center is working hard, seeking how to use T-Cells
modification to fight Cancer cells, a disease that continues to ravage American
lives and wrought misery on American families, Donald Trump, the Presumptive Republican
Nominee, is content discussing the sex life of a former President who is not
a candidate on the ticket for 2016 White House? When the debate for the White
House has moved from creative and inventive public policy of the future, or
innovative science discoveries that can change lives and make our livable space
more environmentally friendly, or our weather better predictable, a major
American Political Party presumptive nominee will rather discuss a mix of toxic
demagoguery and sexual innuendoes splinted with a dose of barking carnival of a
disheveled racist, Houston or America, we sure do have a problem?
Would someone help me
understand Republican voters and Americans who still support a morally and
intellectually bankrupt, and probably a tax dodging cheat, with penchant for
marrying immigrants rather than indigenously-born Americans, who enjoys
insulting minority groups, including calling hard working Mexicans as rapists
and not the bests South America can offer? How on earth, a Republican that
consistently violates ethos of conservative principle is now enjoying the largesse’s
of republican leaders and few conservative radio hosts, who have chosen to look
elsewhere as they sweep under the rug, the obvious deficiency of a lost rabble
rouser, a candidate least fit for dexterity of a leader prepared for the
challenges of the highest office in the land? Until Republicans figure out how
their party got to the junction of transitioning from a respectable
conservative bastion of hope to an embracer of a cave-man religious bigot, who
will like to underpay labor and keep all Muslims out of America, I will resolve
to discussing the primary contests between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders in
the States of Kentucky and Oregon.
My transition is
probably fraught with danger. Democrats are not showing the type of demeaning
and insult ridden or trading theatre that the Republican nomination process had
become; but remain a stable competition of ideologies and opinions regarding
authentic liberal values, best embraced as a future direction for America, as espoused
by either Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders. While there are indications that
the contest in the Democratic Party for nomination is narrowing down to Hillary
Clinton being the presumptive nominee as she amasses extra delegates in her narrow
victory over her rival in the Kentucky primary, there are still room to talk
about the formidability of Bernie Sanders as an alternative candidate. Bernie Sanders,
with his slim chance of being the Democratic Party nominee, still evokes frenzy
aura as he knocked out Ms. Clinton with a nine percentage spread in an ostensibly
Democratic Liberal State of Oregon. Further, rather than concentrate on discussing
other possible public policy options against the liberal or ultra-liberal
policies, as advanced by the probable Democratic party presumptive nominee or
her rival, America must now hold her breath because of what the RNC Chairman
has said, that are rather concerning or mystifying. In addition, rather than contemplate why there is
still a split between Americans supporting Bernie Sanders, whom many consider
as too liberal or Socialistic for America, and concentrate our attention on evaluating
in depth the policy proposal of Hillary Clinton, America is now burdened down
to discuss the steadiness and color of the toupee worn by a sixty-nine year old
adult spewing words like a babbling baby in campaigning for the White House
oval office, because all his offensive and demagogy language hardly matters to
some Republicans and their party’s chairman.
Of Course, the
Democratic party nomination process has not degenerated to a choice between a
low knowledge, judgmental and temperamental juvenile to more astute and better
prepared politicians, who have remained on the sidelines for far too long as
the Republican party’s house was about to burn down. As difficult as many
Republican leaders now falling in line to kiss the ring of a demagogy presumptive
nominee to believe, the Democrats actually have two formidable candidates that are
better prepared and very much qualified to hold forth the challenges of the
White House oval office in 2017. As critical of Bernie Sanders as a Red
Socialist can get, he has the laurel and history of public service that he can
readily call or draw on if he becomes the Democratic Party Nominee and eventual
President of the United States. No establishment Republican conservative worth
his salt, can stand out with broad shoulders and a shot out chest to proclaim,
his party’s presumptive flag bearer, has the discipline and candor to restrain
himself as he talks about conservative public policy choices and challenges;
and or, address issues of public trust and probable challenges for the nation
in leading the world to a new horizon of scientific advancements, since their
presumptive party flag bearer is a science denial.
If the Republican
Party’s chance of winning the 2016 White House fails, the meager cohesion
within the party between establishment and the rank and files, will fall
further, which could in turn provoke a complete breakdown of the party. The destructive
stereotypes of bad mouthing immigrants may be gratifying to some segments of
the Republican party at this time; however, it is statistically impossible for
the Republican party to win the White House oval office if Donald Trump loses
eighty percent of the female voters, all but probably five percent of Mexicans
and blacks and about sixty percent independents. It is not just possible to win
the White House only with White male votes, the voters’ demographic terrain has
long changed; and the narrow nationalistic opinionated political campaign
politics is now part of history. Though there are profound possibilities that
the Republican party could reformulate and bring itself around the old GOP
conservative values with a more reflective flagbearer, the chances of
transitioning from a completely broken down party because of the choice to capitulate
or surrender to a mean-spirited ideologically different and probably unstable flagbearer,
has its own cost and consequences.
While there is speculation
that Donald Trump can actually win an election against the eventual Democratic
Party nominee, Hillary Rodham Clinton, because she appears to be a flawed
candidate as Donald Trump, there is hardly any good feeling to appreciate that the
occupier of the White House oval office after January 20, 2017, is an anti-science,
anti-intellectual, protectionist religious bigot, with flair for conspiracy
theories regarding American Press. America’s leadership role in the world does
not accommodate a nut-job without commitment to leadership decorum warranted of
respectability in the corridor of world’s politics. Oppositions to foreigners,
immigrants and anyone not American in a global market, and in a world shrinking
so vastly because of advances in information technology, guarantees that
America would have a tough time dealing with many global world issues that the
country is known to have and had shown leadership in the past. There was a time
in which our leadership was able to hood-wink part of the residents of the
globe; now, change has come even to remote regions, including the Amazons in
Brazil. Except you are living under the rock lately, you must have heard that
the first female president of Brazil was suspended and eventually booted
out of office with an impeachment. What is good for the goose is now
unavoidably, good for the ganders!
How can a leadership under
a fascist-like President Donald Trump fashion comprehensive economic
negotiations with the European Union or East Asian Countries, if these nations
are aware of his protectionism flair or nationalistic choice of bastardizing
his competitions? NAFTA and TPP were fashioned as economic agreements to open
up broader markets for American products and services, and to open some door for
technically savvy intellectual minds from other parts of the world, coming to
work with our intellectuals to transform many industries with our leadership
and innovative advancements. How are we going to accomplish these ambitions,
ambitions that the world has recognized our leadership and comparative
advantage, with a President that sees all Mexicans as rapists, low-life and
never do well, who are trying to take advantage of the slacks in our
immigration system? When Donald Trump hypothetically
becomes America’s President in January, 2017, I hope he will be able to walk
back his proclamation about Muslims of the world as he attempts to resolve the
long thorny disputes in the Middle East, negotiating extended American Debts’
rescheduling to the nation of Saudi Arabia, or winding down America’s presence
in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan – these are all Muslim nations?
There is more to be
learned from the Democratic Party’s primaries in Kentucky and Oregon. It is time
for Democrats to take Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton to the wood shed and
fashion out a singular way forward for the Democratic Party preparedness for
the November contest against the Republican Party. Yes, Bernie Sanders can win
more delegates in the remaining primaries in June and July; however, there is
no path for him forward. His campaign is probably aptly described as a spoiler’s
campaign at this time, that will lead to no good for the welfare of the party.
More precisely, his recalcitrant and agitated campaign doodling in the past
three weeks, appears to be a knee jerk response to knowing that all his efforts
are not going to be rewarded as earlier anticipated. Many key points and
policies his campaign highlighted are important and relevant to progressive
democratic movement; however, it will hardly win the party victory if the
potential winner of the nomination process is beleaguered and damaged by the
time the contest between the two major party’s candidates get into a dwell. The
actual restructuring of policies to facilitate changes in the economic system,
to accommodate reflective liberal values, are better accomplished with a strong
and wholesome candidacy, ready to take on the competition at the first
encounter or bat. A spoiler’s alert is not going to accomplish this; and having
Donald Trump in the White House, is not going to achieve an acceptable option
for many progressives.
Unlike the Republican
party. The Democratic Party is not in an apprehension regarding either of its prospecting
aspirant being the party’s presumptive nominee, because of an unending number
of gaffs that may be likened to excessive biases or political earthquake in use
of language with average American voter. The current infighting between Hillary
Clinton and Bernie Sanders has been likened to a civil war in the fight of
ideas in the realm of liberal thoughts. Precisely, the competition between the
two standing Democratic aspirants aims to sort out, which of the liberal
ideologies deserve more attention than the other. Except for the Anti-Wall
Street language from Bernie Sanders and a few of his ultra-liberal proposals on
public higher education and Medicare, mainstream Democrat’s fragile Dante with Bernie
Sanders and his supporters has not risen to the level of fear of the position
of the erstwhile Senator; or, a complete ideological surrender as found with
the establishment Republicans in an attempt to accommodate Donald Trump and his
team of over ten million supporters. Bernie Sanders is not fanning the flame of
discontent in his recent victories in Indiana or Oregon, or opting to break up
NATO as you find with the presumptive republican Nominee. Nonetheless, there
are still some aspects of Bernie Sander’s campaigning a few venues that calls
to question or put pressures on claim of complete civility in Democratic party campaign
for 2016 White House.
Active competition
for party nomination within the Republican Party has further reduced with the
withdrawal of Ted Cruz and John Kasich about three weeks ago. However, within
the Republican Party, is an unsettling feeling and apprehension on the part of establishment
Republicans that the likely presumptive party nominee is not foreign policy
savvy with his use of language and has other shortcomings, including prior
likely behavioral deception, where he had represented himself as a “John Barron”
or “John Miller” persona; a supposedly publicists of his, who was attempting to
explain away some of his messy broken marriage relationships. The creepiness of
this alleged behavior has been found disturbing by many political leaders,
including some of his former rivals for party nomination, including Marco Rubio
lambasting him as a con man; Ted Cruz calling him a pathological liar and Bobby
Jindal, relegating him to the status of a narcissistic. A few journalists and those
who listened to the creepy phone calls from the John Miller or John Barron persona have called
Americans to reflect on putting a probable vain, misogynist and freighting
needy character in the seat of the President of the United States.
To add anything more
at this time regarding what America has learned from the primary results of Democratic
party primaries in Kentucky and Oregon, or the newly awakenings going on with establishment
Republicans with respect to their party’s presumptive nominee, will be alerting
an inconvenient truth regarding how America selects political party flag bearer
and probably the President of United States in the twenty-first century. Does
political party ideological principle or past behavioral indiscretions matter anymore?
After all, the Chairman of the Republican Party, Reince
Priebus, a major voice in American Political party landscape or
experience says, it hardly matters, if his party’s nominee misunderstands the
US Constitution, lambast Mexicans as Rapists, identifies with Japan and South
Korean owning and getting nuclear weapons; or, punishing American women for
seeking abortion even in instance in which the life of the women is at stake.
Welcome to the new Republican Party; Welcome to the new America of tomorrow.
