Classical Economic Liberals and Theocrats Hand Cruz Wisconsin

Globalists like Cruz' classical economic liberalism. Goldman Sachs financed his Senate recognizing him as a cadre of classic capitalist liberalism. He also got support from Wisconsin's Theocratic party sub-unit of the Republican Party. The theocrats should form their own party and take 15% of the vote each Presidential election. Republicans could recover and not have the internal conflict each Presidential cycle.

Theocrats aren't aware that Reagan was a populist before being conservative. Reagan's populism gave him victories rather than his conservatism. Trump is a populist that theocrats and classical liberals disdain. Yet the people like him. If Republicans want to seem to support democracy the leadership should support Trump.

Barry Goldwater was soundly trounced because he wasn't a populist. G.W. Bush was elected only riding Reagan's coat tails. If Trump's populism is subverted the Republican prospects will dwindle.

Classical economic liberalism of capitalism regards all people as consumers, producers and market participants. Goldman Sachs might not finance a national conservative, yet Cruz was just fine for them.

There isn't anything fundamentally wrong with classical economic liberalism except that in a pure form for it regards the globe as one market and political boundaries as hindrances. That isn't good for nation conservators and properties of national political rights such as those of the U.S. Constitution at all.

The globalist managers of U.S. politics are happy with either the Clintons or Cruz as each are simply different product packaging of the same classical economic liberalism. That goes for Cruz' Canadian birth, Hispanic heritage and religious moral conservative characteristics selected to dupe American conservatives into supporting actual economic liberalism that has very different moral values that are scientifically, Skinerianish and detached from anything except abstract velocity of money concerns.

Trump Should Build a Border Desalinating Canal Instead of Wall

Border security can be accomplished with collateral ecological benefits killing two problems with one financial package. Trump's people need to start promoting a Mexican border fresh water condensing covered desalinating canal to bring new water supply to the parched southwest. The Rio Grande is a fairly pathetic looking creek even at Albuquerque and one doesn't need to mention how dry Arizona is along the border. Trump should find it easy to sell the people of the American southwest on construction of a new water making and security project.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_Basin_Project

I grew up in the Columbia basin of Eastern Washington where the Grand Coulee dam brought irrigation water to create lush agriculture to the desert of the Quincy Valley via the Federal Columbia basin Project. Naturally I regard deserts as something of a challenge for irrigation and look to new methods for producing fresh water. The Pacific ocean and Sea of Cortez have a higher sea level than the Gulf of Mexico on the Texas side. Constructing a trans-border boundary canal zone to let salt water piped and partly siphoned up with a little solar power pump help evaporate and condense under a clear cover should let a very large volume of water (and salt) be produced. The canal should go all the way across the border. Nations that are independent and self-determinative need secure borders to avoid bimbofication to larger global powers.

The United State used to accomplish large projects and it still could if globalist greed did not prevail. The environmental temperature is increasing with global warming and a large southwest green water making, solar power collecting, electric patrol vehicle zone would be a rational response to help mitigate global warming desertification. Challenge and response are Toynbean concepts for societies in history as well as psychologists'. For a society to fail to adapt to contemporary challenges could make chaos and increasing desertification the the default evolution.

Ukraine's President Tied to Panamanian Tax Evading Speciality Firm

One hope's President Poroshenko hasn't been laundering Western political funds through his offshore accounts.  Yet with globalism being free to buy U.S. real estate and perhaps politicians too through Super PACs or hidden offshore specialty law firms and banks it is difficult to trust candidates financed by Goldman Sachs even if they were born in Canada or have support from Mexican anti-Trump protesters hanging Mexican flags from Trump Tower in Vancouver.

Politics increasing are made for the benefit of foreign governments and investors rather than the majority of Americans. The Clinton foundation and the Hillary it-takes-a-village weltanshauung along with so many Wall Street supporters make the future of the nation look dim if Trump or Sanders aren't nominated.

'Consin Votes Tuesday- Chance to End nation's Losing Streak

'Consin votes tomorrow. many evangelicals vote for those pandering to wrong eschatological beliefs best, and too many Christians are misled to vote for those that cannot win thus throwing an election to the far left. Since 1988 Americans have elected losers for the nation and if Trump isn't elected that probably won't change. Politics is about secular pragmatism, while pursuing symbolism may just spoil an election and put the worst possible in office as usual. Theologians are great at theology, yet does that make them competent politically? Should Christians pursuing ideals help realpolitik put the worst secularists in office unintentionally yet avoidably? The U.S.A. will be a nation of sinners regardless of how the elect vote.

Scientists have confirmed Donald trump's observation that "the American dream is dead".

Envisioning the Trump Team in the White House

Trump probably should reward Chris Christie with Sect. of Transportation and Ben Carson with the VP post while selecting Alaskan former Federal Judge, Army officer, bronze star winner, Yale  and University of Alaska economics graduate Joe Miller for SecDef; beyond those easy choices he should find someone like Amory Lovins for Sect. of the Interior to perform a kind of ecological reformation of the way the U.S.A. treats the environment like an anti-James Watt. Trump could deal with that-radical ecological economic change.

The voters of the U.S.A. haven]t elected a winner that did any good for the U.S.A. since 1984. That's a long losing streak it ought to reverse sometime in the nation isn't just sold out to globalists as it present is in the process of.

Trump vs. Foreign Owned U.S. Real Estate

Donald Trump as a real estate magnate pragmatically understands what has happened to the U.S. real estate market since the first Clinton royal global era of redistributing the U.S.A. to globalists.

Evolution theory in national development will not assure progress. Directed evolution is required to replace and compensate for the loss of natural boundary security do to transportation and communication changes. While the corrupt and thoughtless believe life is a phenomenal bowl of cherries and that they and the nation too are doomed to success, they are wrong. Intelligence is required to direct a nation toward a good course for development and progress. Not only was America a nation of immigrants, it was a nation with borders secure from foreign invasion and the corrupting influence of direct foreign ownership and influence upon its political system.

https://www.irs.gov/Individuals/International-Taxpayers/Foreign-Persons-Receiving-Rental-Income-from-U.S.-Real-Property

Sixteen percent of Maine farmland is foreign owned.  http://modernfarmer.com/2013/09/owns-us-agricultural-land/
http://www.cfr.org/united-states/quarterly-update-foreign-ownership-us-assets/p25685

Thirty-five percent of Americans are on welfare or means tested federal programs. Fifty percent receive government benefits or payments. About 150 million Americans share just 1% of the nation's annual income. With the increasing foreign owned real estate and business sectors, along with illegal migrant labor, the majority of Americans will become poor and politically powerless; exploited by the media and plutonomy to hush up and dumb down.

President Obama Worried About Clinton's Nukes for Food History?

During the first Clinton administration Bill cut a deal with Dictator Kim to stop making nuclear weapons materials in exchange for food. So the food was provided and it turned out that North Korea kept building nukular weapons in its hidden reactor. That is proof that even if a Secretary of State dances before the Dictator it is no proof of the Dictator's love for the Clinton's rep.

So President Obama has expressed concern about nukular terrorism since the ISIS Euro crew was casing a nuclear facility. Holland provided Pakistan with plans on how to build nukular bombs so the security is somewhat lax now and then. It has improved so far as Interpol checking the Euro Craig's list for ads soliciting nuclear materials at least. However President Obama needn't worry too much, since North Korea eventually may be a source for nuclear materials to terrorists in exchange for oil or whatever.

http://www.voanews.com/content/obama-hails-summit-accord-but-says-nuclear-terrorism-still-a-risk/3266075.html

Another round of Clintons in the White House would not only stimulate student intern job security, it might also bring fine speeches and accelerated nuclear weapons development to North Korea, and that in turn could bring better food to more bureaucrats in North Korea. I would bet the people of the Rhodes scholarship committee never foresaw that their choice of Bill would bring decades of benefits to the U.K.

http://www.economist.com/news/international/21696178-muted-last-hurrah-nobel-peace-prizewinning-president-barack-obamas-final

More nations have developed scientific infrastructure enabling the proliferation of nuke weapons know-how and rocket delivery systems. Drone aircraft will increase and multiply nuke package vectors for budget-minded nihilists one would think down the airfield ahead.

Iranian and Saudi nuclear technology along with that of Pakistan present a Muslim punch potential to join that of left over and hidden Soviet fissile materials caches in Muslim spin off states from the U.S.S.R. and even Ukraine. One cannot trust that everyone really returned every last bomb when they have a lot of potential value-and is Chernyobyl really secure or can suicide miners excavate some pounds of uranium?

Wouldn't Trump Rattle Cages Better in the Next Recession?

Select analysts have noted the weakness of the Obama recovery that presently has just 1.5% annual growth. Some of course believe a no-growth economy quantitatively that just grows qualitatively and transitions to ecological economic refoundations is better than traditional material economic growth yet that isn't what the Obama administration was about-it simply had a 'puny' rate of recovery that was deficit and fiction Fed Reserve printing press cash financed.

The workforce nationally hasn't grown or recovered from the vast layoffs and job losses of 2008 and isn't likely to. The public debt soon will hit 20 trillion dollars with the budget deficit running about a half-trillion dollars. The world's poor still look to surge into the United States to take any available jobs and reduce wages for ordinary Americans that already are stagnant. Media globalists mock 'white rage' about the way things are as if the problem is unique as a racial phenomenon. it is worth recollecting though that hate crimes don't really exist as class issues-they really are economic crimes. People and classes that adversely impact one's class economic security tend to be hated.

Regard the slavery era of the south. Negroes weren't hated; they were considered commodities and many were satisfied with that economic circumstance while blacks probably hated many white people for economically oppressing them. The Nat Turner rebellion was bloody awful to the victims. It wasn't the first edition of the Ike and Tina Turner band.

The federal government reasonably should have made class economic crimes the subject to federal interdiction category. That would have been of value to far more people and largely would have covered the same victims.

The next recession may become a depression turning the globe into a challenging place with many suffering in economic and environmental turmoil. One analyst at Forbes (I will post a link) wrote an article noting that the Obama recovery is the second longest running in U.S. history. As weak as it is the prospect for a new recession is really a concerning.

When it does happen it will need an executive used to rattling cages and innovating to get the nation out of it. The usual methods of pump priming with deficit financed growth probably won't be available since that hasn't stopped since the Reagan era and in fact the dollar may even collapse.

The Trump Challenge; Overcome 'Consin Primary

Fischer once said; 'sack, sack and mate' in describing how to win against a particular chess defense; the Sicilian dragon.  Donald Trump has the challenge of finding a way to finish off the Ted Cruz campaign in the 'consin primary election Tuesday.

Much of Ted Cruz's support arises from two sources; fossil fuel job fans and pre-tribulationist evangelicals that believe a rapture is somewhere out there and if the world goes to hell in the meantime well so what-its all pre-destined. There is an industry in churches and politics of exploiting those fears especially of economically troubled people for votes and/pr tithes-even sacrificial tithes.

Full disclosure; I am a Christian post-tribulationist who believes that the book of the Revelation preponderantly described a first century period of tribulation for the Jews primarily and of Jerusalem's destruction. Following that a lengthy build up of Christianity through evangelism until it reached a majority of the population would develop lasting a minimum of a thousand years; and that number is perhaps just a non-rigid designator of a long, long time (2000 years so far).

Donald Trump needs to reach Wisconsin republicans, though the con-sinners are presently tilting toward support for Cruz it is possible that reason will prevail and they will vote not for a cultist oil cliché Canadian citizen from Texas(though con-sinners have a lot of French-Canadian influence and are known to be cheesy).

Trump is all about economics and national security. Cruz is about globalism, Bush-Chaney-Exxon-Halliburton-Tar Sands crude oil interests and bad eschatology's cultishness. Trump is outspoken, while Cruz seems like Zillary, a duplicitous career politician generically saying what such think voters want to hear and doing what they want under-the-table in dark pools that replaced those smoked filled rooms of yore.

Of course these days devilcrats and Judicial accomplices force politics on the people from the top-down and then the media cooks polls for supporting the foisted politics as supported by a majority. One must believe Americans don't take issues seriously and change them as willingly as a sailor changes tack or that the3media is dissimulative. Politicians increasingly don't take voters seriously-especially with Republicratic realpolitik being a support service for corporatism. Cruz probably hasn't a fraction of Zillary Clinton's skills at dissimulating- that are comparable only to Bill's.

Trump's recent Chris Matthews interview was in a Democrat Party media bias outlet and therefor dangerous, yet Trump thrives in a controversial environment. Quick executive actions aren't common any more though. The Presidency is more of a glacial moderating speed than a fast instant rule by decree whim sort of thing. Even Obama's greasing the skids of homosexual marriage required years to develop. If a President has a speech slip up, that indicates that he hasn't a teleprompter more than anything else.

It is good that Trump did not say that adult abortion services should be legalized everywhere to support zero-population growth. Even conservatives would find the one-shot Luger bullet to the brain for those adults that should have been aborted yet slipped through too Beria-ish, although Democrats enthusiastic about abortions might like it.

Trump was right though in having the opinion that if something is illegal there ought to be some sort of objective legal penalty attached to it. Otherwise laws would be rather meaningless, and then, adult post-birth abortion services provided free to political opposition might become common on a large scale.

Thoughts on Karjakan Whumpin Caruana

Russian chess star Sergey Karjakin took the candidate's Tournament victory after check mating Fabiano Caruana in the final round. Caruana -an American sometimes Italian, needed the win to play for the world championship in November. He seemed to lack the aggression needed to whump Karjakin rather than vice versa.

At the super-GM plus 2700 rating of contemporary chess draws are usual the majority of the time. Style and position tend to be first rather than clever classical Mikhail Tal-like check mates. Karjakin in an earlier match against Veselin Topolov had a similar classical-looking sacrifice and straightforward checkmate as he had against Caruana. Those who forget the lessons of the past are doomed to repeat them in chess, politics, economics and habitat loss.

Caruana had unlearned aggressive, sacking chess so far as to fail to methodically advance his A pawn along with the B and sack them in order to enfilade Karjakin's king position that should have been a naked singularity. Shorn of defenders a Caruana check mate rather than vice versa was possible. Caruana instead allowed too many moves to pass without removing the king's proximal defenders and letting Karjakin have time and tempo sufficient to break through Caruana's own center pawns plodding forward. One wonders when Tal advanced his pawns in the center in order to lead a checkmating attack? Tal wasn't Vladimir Kramnik.

A fair and balanced approach does work for positional and clever victories for Super GMs of course. Yet the direct crash and thrash checkmate wrecking a king's defenders is also useful to remember. Karjakin seemed to remember the lesson a little better than Caruana.

In two years Caruana will  be older and wiser in chess and perhaps better prepared to win the Candidate's tournament against some very skilled chess players including perhaps the rising Chinese chess star Wei Yi who just narrowly missed qualifying at the 2015 World Cup.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GDViK2w2wY the Karjakin-Caruana struggle

Robert Fischer said; 'sack, sack and mate' (along the A file) in describing how to win against a particular chess defense; the Sicilian dragon. Robert James Fischer vs Fridrik Olafsson (1961). Caruana also needed to find a way to obliterate the king's defenses on the a,b,c files.

Capitalism Fails to Deliver on Lyme Disease Vaccine

An effective vaccine against the most common tick transmitted disease in the U.S.A.-Lyme disease does exist. It was withdrawn from distribution a couple of years agio for various reasons by the manufacturer.

More than 30,000 cases of Lyme disease are reported annually though the actual rate may be much higher. Probably the government should intervene in order to allow the vaccine to be produced abroad and distributed in the U.S.A.

http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/thanks-anti-vaxxers-only-licensed-lyme-disease-vaccine-was-withdrawn

GlaxoSMithKline produced LYMErix reported at the website above to be 80% effective in adults and 100% in children. Its unfortunate that anti-vaccine politics and other factors brought the pharmaceutical to make the decision to stop production. Even if demand was low because many people simply don't think about prevention; that doesn't mean that everyone is daft. For useful products that consumers should have the option to buy and that actually exist yet are repressed for various reasons-most notably the chemically heated from the can shave cream by Gillette named 'The Hot One' banned in the U.S.A. since about 1973-the government should havge some kind of policy to coordinate bringing the products to market.

Army Reinvents 'The Big Gun'

Rail gun canon and portable fuel cells to keep up with the Navy would have benefited society more. Old field piece tech is of dubious social value and the result of introverted technicians. Special airlift copters could have accelerated deployment. The army should have researched solar powered electrolysis to make hydrogen in the field or whatever to refuel the fuel cells. Get with it guys! These things could be needed on Mars or the moon someday!

Cruz, Kasich, Romney et al; Spoiler-Losers

Trump, Ross Perot and Undivided Republicanism

Donald Trump, a billionaire like Ross Perot who ran as an independent against George H.W. Bush in 1992, is the alternative to uncreative bureaucratic self-promoting career politicians. The two generic candidate rivals of Trump have said they would not vote for him if he got the nomination as the people want. In other words Kasich and Cruz provide sore loser's boos that support the democratic party candidate with divide and get whumped thoughtlessness.

Donald Trump has replied in kind, as he did in words too after a Cruz Super Pac attacked trumps wife viscously and Cruz didn't condemn the ad loudly as he should.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/03/30/trump-rescinds-pledge-to-back-republican-nominee-cruz-kasich-refuse-to-commit-support.html

The lesson to be learned is that a divided Republican party or one running half-heartedly cannot win. Romney of course didn't get evangelical enthusiasm and the result was another four years of Obama and homosexual marriage. Plainly Republic 'establishment' leaders differ too little from Democrats such as Clinton and Obama that in being sycophants of globalism over America-first and vast tax cuts for the rich while illegal aliens flood over the border.

Failing to elect Perot and running a somewhat lame G.H.W. Bush re-election campaign meant the decline of the U.S.A. following the 1992 election with vast public debt, avoidable foreign wars, the rise of Muslim terrorism and the decline pf public morals. You would think Republican leadership could learn something from that and also learn to lead on environmental rectification as a global activity that changes applied economic procedures.

Well, it seems Trump's year. The 'Republican establishment' should wake up and stop being live spoiler-losers.

Arctic Winter Icepack Set Record Winter Minimum

The Arctic ice-pack maximum set a record low size Thursday because of the warming trend of recent decades. Arctic ocean water should thus heat faster this spring and summer. Polar bear will spend more time on the rocks or distance swimming next summer.

Politicians of course often being generically mildly retarded with avarice and elected to fulfill greed will see only the economic opportunities to exploit the natural resources of the Arctic. Note the Baltic Sea change.

If Capitol Shooter Was Muslim Get Apology Ready

If the shooter that hit a policeman at the nation's capitol complex was Muslim the President will need to make an apology for the nation offending Muslims somewhere I suppose. The media have the public so trained to give up their national political sovereignty that people here or in Europe are regarded as extreme right for wanting to halt immigration or at least restrict it to a reasonable number carefully screened.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-washington-capitol-idUSKCN0WU1L3 DC shooter

Globalists want one world order with people just consumers and without rights. The environment will suffer, Muslims atheists, Christians and environmentalists won't be happy, and pluralism will perish along with secure national boundaries. The leadership will be a generic bureaucracy oppressing masses and dissent won't be possible. End game logic.

The Genius of Jesus' Ethics

The ethical system taught by the Lord Jesus Christ is greater than one taught by an Einstein or Newton. It surpasses incomparably the eightfold path taught by Siddartha, it makes modern utilitarianism simplistic and entails Kant's categorical imperative while transcending it. No other man in history has presented such a vast, comprehensive ethical system for human behavior that works in the real, live human social environment.

The Buddha's ethics were that of abnegation in the realization that temporal life is comparatively meaningless in contrast to eternity or nothingness before and after personal existence. Abnegation or indifference about what occurs in life is a reaction to existential facts, and a way of experiencing the good and bad of reality yet it does not construct a rational ethical system for human advancement to an ideal condition. The ethics of the Lord Jesus does that, and is effective even if the application is incomplete and only a portion of humanity comprehends.

Consider this excerpt from Matthew chapter 5;

“3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for their's is the

kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be

comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after

righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called

the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for

righteousness' sake: for their's is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and

persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against

you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your

reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets

which were before you.

13 ¶ Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost

his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth

good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden

under foot of men.

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an

hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a

bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all

that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may

see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in

heaven.

17 ¶ Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the

prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass,

one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till

all be fulfilled.

19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least

commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be

called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever

shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in

the kingdom of heaven.”

Jesus' ethical system is insinuated throughout the New Testament. The ethical genius of the Lord Jesus is applicable to this temporal realm yet also prepairs the saved for the world beyond. The system brings humanity to a better condition even when the belief of the people does not extend unto the post-temporal destiny of heaven or hell.

Within the temporal, comparatively illusory world experience of human life in the steady-state thermodynamically in motion Universe the ethics of the Lord draw humanity to cohere together with respect of liberty and justice for all. It is not a warrior religion urge to conquer and force everyone to submit to a trans-temporal deity. The ethics of the Lord Jesus draw humanity toward social perfection temporally, and that is a penultimate minimalistic transformation toward the fulfillment of each human soul in God's eternal plan actualized through the saving grace of the Lord Jesus' sacrifice on the cross.

The ethics of the Lord are worthy of a lifetime study one goes about their ordinary work-a-day existence. Regardless of one's having faith in eternal life or not when the temporal experience terminates, to learn to know Jesus Christ and his ethics is to transform one's temporal way of being discretely. A soul learning the Lord's way of ethics becomes a universal citizen contributing to the advancement of society. As he or she is drawn to the perfect way of the Lord and knows his way even those disbelieving in eternal life may encounter a regenerative experience and even accept the Lord as their personal savior and understand the sacrifice he made at Calvary to atone for their original and subsequent sin.

The ethics of the Lord are a continuous regenerative factor for human social existence leading some of the elect unto eternal life with God.

Two Christian Topics

 People often aren't well informed about Celtic Christianity including Patrick and Columba. Some don't even know the Venerable Bede of Lindisfarne (not a Celt I think). Its all interesting history- Christians prior to the reformation were still Christians even if their clergy was in error about some things as at present. Without a priesthood of believers attending church is a little like being a subscribed spectator at the opera although the 'mass' spirituality reaches out to the audience whom helpfully over-tithe commercial career Christians instructing 2nd class flock Christians in errors concerning pre-tribulation end times etc.

 Justin Martyr was an interesting guy-he actually studied philosophy with Stoic and Peripatetic philosophers and was able to interpret John's writing of the logos or word of God within Parmenides-Plato's tradition as Ladd pointed out (the later point). Martyr may have been a link unto moderns such as Hegel with his concept of God evolving history (equivalent to being in coherent space-time infused with God's purpose). Plotinus later developed the thought of Martyr I suppose-not just with Ammonius Saccas as an influence. The ancient world had a lot of intellectual activity.

Remedies Against Satan's Devices

In the present era of moral decay in the U.S.A. citizens faced with external challenges from Muslim terror/expansionism, global warming, species, habitat loss and internal challenges presented by atheists may be swamped by wickedness and wicked leaders. it is useful to recollect that the saints of prior generations were also challenged by Satan's devices.

Assuredly modern global communications have brought many to choose trendy swinging wise-guy social commo takeover lifestyles formerly common to criminals of bunk, socialist sophisms and capitalist expropriations instead of plain material production in farming, building, invention and manufacture. Church leadership has more in common today with elite, non-representative political parties wise guys that once were democratics or republicans than with an egalitarian priesthood of believers where all Christians participate as team players rather than as subscribed spectators at an opera.

God is good. Jesus Christ is the sole way for salvation and reconciliation/renormalization unto God. The Son of God is God.

Thomas Brooks (1608 – 1680 wrote a small book in the 17^h century named; 'Remedies Against Satan's Devices'. This Easter Sunday it is worth considering again a few of the devices mentioned in Brooks; book that have brought so many to the brink of eternal ruin…

“2. By painting sin with virtue's colors: For remedies, consider that

1) sin is never the less vile by being so painted

2) the more sin is so painted the more dangerous it is

3) we ought to look on sin with that eye with which within a few hours we shall see it

4) sin cost the life-blood of the Lord Jesus

3. By the extenuating and lessening of sin: For remedies, consider that

1) sin which men account small brings God's great wrath on men

2) the giving way to a less sin makes way for the committing of a greater

3) it is sad to stand with God for a trifle

4) often there is most danger in the smallest sins

5) the saints have chosen to suffer greatly rather than commit the least sin

6) the soul can never stand under the guilt and weight of sin when God sets it home

upon the soul

7) there is more evil in the least sin than in the greatest affliction

4. By showing to the soul the best men's sins and by hiding from the soul their virtues,

their sorrows, and their repentance: For remedies, consider that

1) the Spirit of God records not only the sins of the saints, but also their repentance

2) these saints did not make a trade of sin

3) though God does not disinherit his sinning people, He punishes them severely

4) God has two main ends in recording the falls of His saints

5. By presenting God to the soul as One made up all of mercy: For remedies, consider

1) It is the sorest of judgments to be left to sin upon any pretense whatever

2) God is as just as He is merciful

3) sins against mercy will bring the greatest and sorest judgments on men

4) though God's general mercy is over all His works, yet His special mercy is confined

to those that are divinely qualified

5) the saints now glorified regarded God's mercy as a most powerful argument

against, and not for, sin

6. By persuading the soul that repentance is easy and that therefore the soul need not

scruple about sinning: For remedies, consider that

1) repentance is a difficult work above our own power

2) repentance changes and converts the whole man from sin to God

3) repentance is a continued act

4) if repentance were easy, the lack of it would not strike millions with terror and

drive them to hell

5) to repent of sin is as great a mark of grace as not to sin

6) Satan now suggests that repentance is easy, but shortly he will drive his dupes to

despair by presenting it as the hardest work in the world”.-end excerpt Brooks

Obama's Racist Appeal & Donald Trump's Campaign

President Obama drew 95% of black voters in two elections because of his race yet none compared that to Wallacism or David Dukism. The U.S. economy grew at just a 1% annual rate and about 90% of the nation's income went to 10% of the people. More than 50 million Americans took just 1% of the income. Millions have been forced out of work to retire on federal programs. The public debt is greater than 19 trillion dollars and far too much U.S. production is offshore while the middle class and poor haven been levered into lower earnings over time. Donald Trump seems like the last American Presidential candidate.

Democracy requires secure boundaries and immigration control as much as sovereign power over all of its legal premises to be an actual democracy rather than just nominally appearing as one.

The republican bureaucratic infrastructure are working against a populist candidate far too strenuously to dissuade people from believing that they don't comprise part of a hybrid jackass-elephant Republicratic party. If the GOP sinks Trump they will probably sink their own party's future too. The U.S. political system seems rigged by the irresponsible and unaccountable.
