Your Time Is Now!

Your Time Is Now!

As we approach this crucial juncture concerning the future of our nation, before you pull that lever and select the candidate of your choice, you must ask yourself two questions. What are the Presidential Nominees selling and what are you looking to buy? Whenever someone is soliciting your patronage, they will present you with all kinds of information to persuade you to purchase what they are selling. Now your responsibility is to filter the facts from the none-facts so that your understanding of the product is exactly what you want. Will it do, can it do, what guarantee do I have, can I trust the seller, what kind of track record does it/they have, will it satisfy my exact need, are the questions you must consider. If you don't investigate their claim then you could end up with something that has no advantage to your situation or need. I will say, a lot of times word of mouth works for many of us when it comes to should we or shouldn't we, but that system has its flaws. Either way if you don't make a concerted effort to learn and understand your possible selection then you have just wasted your money and time. In this case it will be a lot of your time and possibly a lot of your money. Time wise, four years to be exact and money wise, oh my God!

A man once told me when I was a very young lad, you can narrow every situation down to two questions. Now those two questions may require two more questions and so on and so on. But in actuality you really only have two questions.

So question one is… What are the main two Presidential Nominees offering/selling? They both are offering/selling two entirely different packages. One wants you to believe that the journey we are presently on should continue. The ride has been bumpy but it still is a comfortable one considering the alternative. He wants us to over look a lot of deceitful acts by the party he represents. He wants us to accept that his party has created two status quos, the very rich and the very poor and then there are those of us who are close to one end of that spectrum or the other. He wants us to believe it is okay to be considered one of the richest nations in the world and have an ungodly unemployment percentage rate while people are losing their homes in record numbers. He wants us to ignore the present national debt that will have our children's children, children paying for it their entire life. When the Republican Party took office, our national debt was in the black and wasn't a concern, the economy was satisfactory to all! In this day and time he wants us to allow men and women in the military to continue to be a part of a conflict that should have never taken place. In the 21st century, war should be the absolute last choice and even then still figure out another solution. War kills! And a war we could have avoided has no place in our history. There is so much more that he is selling that will require your undivided attention, your absolute comprehension. His offer is an open book because he represents and supports most of the present GOP's products even though he is making an effort to stand separate from his party's last nominee because of his popularity or lack there-of.

The other Nominee has a slogan simply called "Change"! He is selling change. He is offering anything but what we have witnessed and accepted the last eight years. He is reaching out to those who have become invisible. I'm talking about those that are not on either end of the status quo spectrum that the present Gatekeeper created. These are the people paying for the operation of the nation, but not able to make ends meet because of the high cost of everything and taxes on their basic necessities. Yet the high end of the spectrum isn't held accountable financially by getting unreasonable tax breaks. He is reaching out to those who are tired of the present administration. He's calling out common sense people to recognized basic ideas with common sense results. He has high family values and speaks about making us a nation again with that particular priority. This nominee can only boast about what he hoped to do. No, he doesn't have a track record for us to challenge or dissect. So his offer may or may not seem worth supporting! What I'm saying is that his options or offer has yet to be proven. But is that reason enough to not support him or to support him? He is a great salesman. There is so much more that he is selling that will require your undivided attention and investigation.

So Question two is…What are you buying?This question leads to a list of other questions. What are you willing to support? Which Nominee has your best interest in mind? Who is going to serve this nation's needs better for the next four years. Can we afford another four years of the same mentality or do we need change?

In closing I ask that you please take notice to the two questions and figure out where you stand and who are you willing to stand with when the smoke clears? We can't allow ourselves to not be a part of this moment in our nation's history. A very important document in the archives of our National records begins with these words "We the people" this has so much significance to our present situation and our future. Why, because no matter what your ethnic background is, if you are an American then you are the people and have a responsibility to select a leader that will continue to make this country great, not for some self-serving reason but for the betterment of all Americans! Don't let the skillful campaign advertisers persuade your choice. In other words don't support something that they say will serve you better, just because they say so. Get right down to the facts. Know the facts. Be able to discuss the facts with those that are undecided or uncommitted or even committed. This is an election where you can't sit idly by. You must take this election with the seriousness of life and death. You may never get another chance to make your situation better just because you were able to explain to people why they should vote or not vote for a certain person. Voting for someone because of a party affiliation is like killing someone because of principle. Ludicrous!

Our time is now…Your time is now! Let us now do what needs to be done!

Footnote: Let's never allow another election to take place and only one party takes in consideration the effectiveness of our vote. Let's see to it that the issues of our people are made to be important and will be addressed by all candidates.

An Insane Slavery Tactic

.An Insane Slavery Tactic! Are we slaves and have we been enslaved into a system that has been designed for the sake of greed? In the movie Con-Air, Garland Greene a mass murderer (played by Steve Buscemi) said after being called insane by Poe (played by Nicholas Cage); “Now you’re talking semantics! What if I told you that insane was working 50 hours a week in the same office for 50 years after which they tell you to piss off, ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet in time. Wouldn’t you consider that to be insane?” Maybe I’m talking semantics! What if I told you that using a credit card when you have cash available to pay for an item is insane! Okay, say you make $8,000 a month and after every bill for this particular month has been satisfied you see a Bose stereo system for sale that will only cost you $600 dollars plus tax. You decide to use your credit card to purchase it instead of using the cash you def...

A FATHER'S LOVE TRIBUTE

As we approach the day honoring fathers I would like to take advantage of the sentiment by paying homage to those who made this a very special day for one such as me. Dear Mother of My Child... “Thank You,” for being the wonderful mother you have been since our child's conception. Months before I could claim to be a father you were already a mother nurturing our child inside your womb with the utmost tender loving care. You did all the necessary things and made bodily sacrifices to ensure that our love making developed into a God fearing healthy human being. Our miracle of creation! As a man I can only imagine what you experienced during that journey. Things like morning sickness, weight gain, a change in your body chemistry, your craving for as well as your dislike for certain foods and let’s not mention the pain you suffered during labor on your delivery day! After giving birth to our child you continued to nurture, teach, help develop, and show an undying love for him/her. Even...

IMAGINE THIS...A Ride On the Hood of My Ride

As the earth was placing the sun in a position to appear that it was setting down gently in the west, we found a remote place facing the sun set, parked, increase the volume to the sounds of some old school music, relax and reminiscence. Then several songs played in a roll that gave us reason to talk about the time when we did this and the time we did that. Suddenly without warning we found ourselves talking about a very intimate moment. The more we discuss that moment in time, the more we became excited about our love making possibilities even now. I open my car door, got out and went to my trunk, found a blanket, placed it on the hood of my car, look at you and motioned with my finger for you to come to where I was standing. Maybe a part of my desire came from that sundress you were wearing, the scent you were fumigating and the look in your eyes. I told you what I had in mind and then I explain the difficulty of us doing what I had in mind on the hood of the car. So you then slowly ...
