Are You Comparing Those Who Stood on Stage to Identify Themselvs With our Candidates But Which One Looked Like Your Family or friends?

The voting was as expected for me last night. Bernie won the Democrats and Trump won the Republican side. Lots more were trailing behind on the right. Hillary was dumped by New Hampshire.Its old news now but...

The news men listed Bernie as socialist  and Trump as an actor and businessman. Bernie Sanders asked donations and thanked his many backers for helping. His promises were appealing to any of us out here that struggle with our living.He was forth right and thought provoking.

 It sounded  as from the heart. I think the word "socialist "is probably very near the truth. But our country has become so imbalance with finger pointing that we are heading towards a system that is settting the gears into motion similar to Nazi Germany in the early 1930s.An example of this was strongly put in my mind last night as I passed thru a little town in upstate New York called Watertown. Just north of interstate 5 and 20 on route 96.

On the porch was a large Nazi/Swastika flag and beside that flag was a effigy of an Afro-American hanging from the rafters of the porch. This is unacceptable behavior in the 21rst century.

Bernie is trying to unite us. Trumps philosophies divide us. We need that unity to make us strong.
Trump is liked by Russia's leader because he would have us behaving in the way Television has shown Trump. Rude intolerant and uncontrolled.

WE THE PEOPLE must unite as one. There are just too many wanting the USA to fall from being fractured in mass hate fests. We are the hope of the free world. Whether others would see us as pompous or boastful. We are the ones who are always called on to pull their bacon out of the fire.
Trump would have us at each others throats. It is all attitude.

Which leads me back to my original thoughts as I watched the Senator Sanders with his average looking family and friends graciously except the applause of those in his crowd. He thanked everyone who helped him get that far and asked average people to keep him in motion financially. Bernie then layer out a plan with ideas of how to go about that plan. I felt that this man was aware of his priorities.

Trump started out stammering with names many folks had no idea as to who they were. The people around him were all primped and pimped as though they were wax figures in a museum. At least they I think some part of them may have been real. The trump went on to vaguely name things he would do and spoke of things vaguely that other candidates had talked about in detail.

Those  watching the deal in the coffee shop looked at each other and agreed on the following popular quote: if you can't befuddle them with brilliance, Baffle them with BULLSHIT. From the cheering in his crowd his guile was working.

Socialist is perhaps temporarily better than inner city fighting in hates name. No one would win there unless it was our nemesis enemies. Which candidate wants to paraphrase, "Kick ass over there"
Which candidate wants us to get out of an endless (un)holy war.
Whose kids, parents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters will be sent in the coming draft. Which now allows females into the meat grinder for bucks, scenario.

Listen to their words and do not allow your emotions to cloud your mind. Look for the things that say more than the candidates are not saying. In a pinch which candidate would lose it and push the final button.

Keep thinking straight friends, Maybe another choice will come along. It looks like WE THE PEOPLE have our choices. Which country do you want to live in and would you want a hate symbol hanging in your neighborhood. To deny everyone from a chance at a better life is wrong from my viewpoint. Bernie would at least try to help the majority. Splitting the top and bottom economies will bring civil war and chaos.

Time will tell what's the roll of the dice

Till next time folks keep the faith.
