2015 State of The Union

Play

Darrell Castle discusses President Obama’s State of The Union speech given January 20, 2015.

“I’m not listening to the mid-term elections. My program of government expansion and management of every aspect of your lives, of spending to the point of bankruptcy, of taxing to the point of penury, of invitation to more and more illegal immigrants – my program of all these things works! In fact, I’m going to expand it, and there’s nothing you Republicans can do about it, although I hope you join me in it.”

    I didn’t listen to the SOTU address, but the way the popularity of the POTUS is falling, it looks very typical of U. S. politics of the past, by criticizing the party in power in order to play the “it’s my turn now” game and let the other party continue our fall into world government. i.e. The great American Experiment of self governance is over. As Carroll Quigley stated on page 1247-48 of his 1966 tome “Tragedy & Hope”:

    “…the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy.”

    Isn’t it time to try something different and see if the situation will actually give us a significant change to the better ? Real education of the electorate would be an immense help in rallying the troops and forming a large enough voting block to implement a new government under the Constitution that the Founders gave us in 1791.

    As Jon Barrie told me during his Independent run for the U. S. Senate here in New Mexico in 2012: “I love my country, but hate my government.” i.e. He has a problem not with government itself, but with the policies that the so-called elected representatives have given us mostly since 1913.
