Presidential Politics: Untold Power and Fortune
I find it almost impossible to believe what we in the United States are living through right now. What delusion our society happily lives their lives under. Has the fate of the roman empire finally become the American reality? Have the people become so consumed with possessions and success that we don’t care how we get them? I certainly hope not, because I deeply love this country and the wonderful people who call it home. But that’s hardly the point, our future has been hijacked by extremely powerful agents who wish to use the people of this country like peasants.
We elected the son of a President who has the most powerful connections in the world. Add to that the man behind the man. This is the person who is the intermediary between the President and as Eisenhower put it, the ‘Military-Industrial Complex.’ This person is usually in the back ground, but this time he is the vice-President.
Together these two are the paid representatives for large corporations who profit on war. The president is not a man who decided one day he wanted to make a difference in the world, he was born into power and politics. And he has as little to do with his office as he had in choosing it. Why bother? Someone else can always do that, he had heard about Reagan, he knew he didn’t have to do much. The idea of being a puppet probably appealed to him.
The events of September 11th were unexpected but provided the opportunity to do the one thing he wanted to do when he got into office; Kill Saddam Hussein. And he created a war out of nothing to do it.
Now according to the administration the war is going smoothly, and by their standard it sure is. We will be bogged down in Iraq for as long as we want. For as long as the profit outweighs the people’s growing intolerance.
The President is living the dream for all who paid to put him in office. It could not have worked out better. A political comedian said, “The worst thing that happened to this country, turns out to be the best thing that happened to you.” Now, due to the reelection ‘the people have spoken,’ and he has ‘currency,’ and he intends to spend it like it was in surplus.
So what is next for the President? For he is coasting freely inside the corridors of power, and he doesn’t know what to do with himself.
