Thomas Jefferson; Racist and Prophet of Civil Religion
The founders were not all in agreement with today’s happy news approach to race and immigration.

An article from a 1995 issue of Atlantic magazine relates that Calhoun's 1830s articles on Nullification were inspired from the writing of Thomas Jefferson. Resolutions in Kentucky were written by Thomas Jefferson apparently. Nullification was the principle that states had a right to nullify any corrupt laws passed by the federal government. Today of course with a monopoly on nuclear power, surveillance gathering high ground and domination of broadcast media synergy the power of the federal government is irresistible, except of course for nature and economics that correct all imbalances eventually.
It is surprising that Jefferson wrote that ""Nor is it less certain that the two races, equally free, cannot live in the same government. Nature, habit, opinion has drawn indelible lines of distinction between them." (from his autobiography).
Timothy McVeigh, one of the Oklahoma City bombers, claimed Thomas Jefferson as an inspiration; McVeigh had a famous quote from Jefferson on his shirt when arrested that said' The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
Jefferson sought legislation in 1776 that would have prevented increase of Virginia's negro population. Apparently he also sought to increase penalties for miscegenation with white women. The Virginia legislature rejected Jefferson's radical proposals.
Following the Haitian revolution and slaughter of white people Jefferson's antipathetic ideas about non-European populations evidently increased. History is interesting to read; it may be presented from numerous points of view, like the need for fossil fuel engines.

Evolution of Muslim Theocracy in America
For those with an interest in general history the evolution of social changes is interesting to observe in real time; as the gradual progression of change has so many many historical examples for comparison. Presently the way the U.S. Government leads, along with its vital 'ally' , England, through foreign and domestic policy to support an evolution from a state of Christianity and a modicum of grace toward godless atheism and social decay toward mass Muslim immigration with the necessary following evolution toward theocracy is the best show to watch the next few decades.
Administrators evidently have no idea about what Islam is nor how stirring up the blooding pot of Middle East war leads more to refugees and casualties, hate and issues instead of peace or stability. Canada plans to import 25,000 Syrians who will have relatives and cell phones and easy U.S. travel with the majority being Muslim and that will be a Northern support for the evolution of Muslim hegemony. The left believe its necessary to stablish any immigrants as they will vote against conservatives and merge as atheists eventually. That is a short sighted viewpoint.

Democrat Items for the CDC's To Do List
House minority leader Nancy Pelosi has said the Democrats will pass the budget bill if a rider is attached directing the CDC to research the cause of gun violence. That is not the only item on the CDC's to do list. Here are the additional items now published for reasons of humor.
1) Discover why politicians get rich after election to the U.S. House and Senate
2) Find the root cause for the french donation of a giant female with a torch after defeat in the 1974 Franco-Prussian war
3) Because of rising income inequality the middle class are no longer the majority; why?
4) Is the bi-partisan policy of giving trillions of zero interest loans and such to banks a rational economic policy? Can inflation develop with so much cash and national public debt? Is it really a good economic idea policy for the government to spend more than it has in revenue?
5) Will Elvis return with a new and renewable green cheese from the Orion (warrior) constellation?
6) Are gangs discriminatory against people of different races?
7) Would a guaranteed minimum income eliminate gun ?
8) Are guns the final chapter in the invention of cheap tools to harm others?
9) Will quantum computing advance sufficiently in time to stop global warming?

Trump is Right; Ryan Wrong on revisionist view of immigration history)
Donald Trump's political proposal to halt all Muslim immigration to the U.S.A. is solid and consistent with precedence of mainstream U.S. history. When in prior times foreign ideologies inimical to vital security interests of the nation endemic to a foreign population presented a threat to the fundamental values of the U.S.A. the government acted to halt or strongly reduce immigration of the those with malevolent ideologies to America. That includes ideological theocrats bowing to a foreign city five times daily. I will not even mention Thomas Jefferson's ideas about admitting Caribbean nations to the union. Politicians may have their heads where the sun don't shine on the issue and that is snafu.
Many politicians have said they would ban immigrants from hostile nations or perhaps those with chaos and war created by U.S. administration efforts to force regime change upon them thereafter stimulating civil conflicts and continuing chaos. Iraq, Syria and Libya might be included in those. Politician's assumptions that Muslim nations mirror western nation's organizational premises are wrong. Muslim nations tend to seek one world order themselves without the divisions of nationalism rather like John Leninismists or Trotskyite communists.
Most of the Middle east nations-states structures were forced upon the indigenous people by a victorious west over Axis powers including Turkey. Pan Arabism during the Nasser era leading up the the 1967 six day war with Israel is not unlike the union aspirations of Issis to restore a Caliphate such as existed historically with the Ummayad and Abassid dynasties. The problem is Islam; not particular national-boundary lines and citizenship in regard to Islam. Political square pegs in round holes by the blind D.C. leadership strike recurrently like a hop-headed Zarathustra-McGoo that skimmed a few thin, large-print graphic novels of history thence to act as Fausts with the confident power of delusional scholarship corrupting the U.S.A.
A virtual ban on communist immigration to the U.S.A. during the 1950s is an example too obvious to need to mention. Islam is a theocratic political system itself. It is a political as well as a religious ideology comparable to communist-atheism. Islam has forsaken its theocratic constitution only as a result of foreign conquest from the west.
Turkey had its military revolt only after the Sublime Porte was beaten by the west. Though Lebanon was part of Syria before the end of the Ottoman empire, it was with the partition by the allies of the Middle East that compelled neo-democratic systems upon Muslims in the region.
Some in the U.S. government are dumb enough to believe that Islam has a natural secular and democratic balance with clerics comparable to that of a declining U.S. clergy in relation to the state, and that is, well, too wrong dudes. Muslims vary naturally between authoritarianism tending to secularism and theocracy. That historical tendency is not one that can be changed by a naïve and ignorant American political leadership class of over-promoted materialists risen to their level of incompetence.
The United States also banned Shinto religious policy with worship of the Emperor (not Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton) during the MacArthur period of Japanese occupation. Debathification was compelled upon Iraq during the Bremmer administration albeit with disastrous results. Paradoxically while atheism is a religion in-itself, the U.S. government tolerates and even promotes its values these days, and tends to invest in communist-atheist nations and even support immigration.
It is easy to find examples of limits on immigration quotas from particular nations during times when a given population presented excessive danger to the security of the United States and its constitutional values. Immigrants from Eastern Europe were nearly stopped after the ideology of anarchism and neo-communism became widespread. Perhaps that was an historical mistake considering the potential value of Eastern Europeans as productive people, however we shall never know what that alternate history would have been. As it was the nation suffered little from the rise of anarchism with the exception perhaps of Chicago that remained something of an anarchist training ground.
Not until the Second World War did the nation again need to restrict immigration from particular populations. Those from axis powers were curtailed. Chinese immigration has been tightly regulated ay various points in U.S. history, especially during the Maoist years.
It is interesting that so many Republicans in leadership posts such as Speaker Ryan are absolutely clueless about real U.S. history and values of prior generations. They espouse a revisionist, sanitized version of history as naturally as my posts looked after censorship and deletion at Helium.com circa 2010.
The U.S.A. hasn't got buns of steel such that it cannot be harmed from adverse mass migrations. Maybe House Speakers cannot suffer from a good ass-kicking, yet ordinary mortals can, and so, they take defensive measures against that occurrence rather than basking in a Catherine the Great-Potemkin revisionist view of sanitized U.S. history. Neither are sweet sounds of rhetoric in front of a microphone necessarily consistent with real national security interests.
Odious attacks from Republican leadership on Donald Trump ought to stop; Trump at least has a backbone., and says what he thinks. In your heart, you know he's right. Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton are the choices of the New World Order crowd presumably. Nearly anyone else, yet especially Donald Trump, would be a better selection.
U.S. Legislature passes 'Every Child Suks Seed' Bill
A
news story mentioned Senators Lamar Alexander and Patty Murray in
conjunction with an early childhood education bill to replace
President Bush's 'no leftist child behind' with an Obama-era
homosexual marriage friendly training update. The House and Senate
have passed something named 'Every Child Suks Seed'.
The
suckcess of the government childhood training agenda may depend on
what the meaning of is, is in the New World Order.
Alaska State Government Considers Corporatism
The
Alaska State Government is in effect considering privatizing itself to
become a corporate funded entity. Oil tax 'royalties' from sales of
North Slope crude on state lands leased to global oil corporations
comprised the bulk of the state budget since the days of Governor Jay
Hammond and the oil boom of the 1970s. Hammond created a permanent
fund investing in Wall Street with an endowment from the oil money so
the people could share from state sales of oil to the private sector
too. It was not created to generate funding for the state government.
Government
is supposed to pay for itself through taxation instead of being an
unaccountable to the people private business. Taxation that pays for
government is a two-edged sword that requires government
accountability to their bosses-the people paying the taxes. When
people pay no taxes they have little control over their government;
government is loyal to those giving it succor, if the people are not
disarmed politically or practically. With the drop in oil price per
barrel to about $40 the state budget has a three billion dollar
deficit so the Governor and legislature are searching low and high
for ways to pay the bureaucracy and kickback to community contractors
at a level to which they have become accustomed. Now the state
permanent fund is the glistening apple in the eye of the state
Government.
The
government is looking to redirect the permanent fund and its wealth
of Wall Street stock investments from the people it was intended for
to the government itself. That would in effect make the state perhaps
the best example of a corporatist political takeover of government.
Corporatism was invented by the Italian fascist dictator, radio
commentator and theorist Benito Mussolini, and has seen its stock
rise versus communism and democracy for the past several decades. In
cash flow volume tough times the government has to pay itself first,
and let the people struggle as best they can. In the every government
for him or her self, idea-challenged economic jungle, government
collectives and affiliated kickback recipients of the private sector
are billion pound/dollar/yuan/peso guerrillas.
