Presidential Jewels of the day Ben Carson

More presidential jewels and today it is from Ben Carson. Being the bottom feeder in the republican nomination race has led him to start attacking the sitting president. Not his fellow nominee seekers but the Barack Obama who he is really not in competition with. However, Ben Carson has decided on a new competition - perhaps one he thins he can win - Who is the blackest of them all. Here he goes referring to Obama in a podcast.

" He is an 'African' American. He was, you know, raised white"

Then in an effort to prove his "blackness" Ben Carson illustrates his blackness by claiming that he lived in the ghetto with Rats and Cockroaches. So according to Ben Carson to be "black" you have to be raised in the ghetto with rats and cockroaches.

Presidential jewels of the day Donald Trump

I have begun to collect presidential jewels of words by the presidential contestants. Today it is the words of Donald Trump that are so outrageous in delivery and substance that they are my top jewels of the day. Here is your future president's description of his Republican opponent Ted Cruz: 

He is like a little baby: soft, weak, little baby

Sounds like a two year old taunting the one year old doesn't it? What next? na na na na

Whose afraid of Donald Trump? Not the Pope.

Next battle Jesus versus Trump. Like Donald Trump, Pope Francis says what is on his mind. He told off people in  the crowd following him in Mexico by calling them essentially "selfish". When asked by reporters about Trump's plan to build a wall, he responded that

"A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not the gospel,"   

Of course the Pope did not refer to Trump by name but made a general response to the question.

Donald Trump Retweets White Supremicist Welcome to the New President of the United States

Donald Trump Retweets White Supremicist Welcome to the New President of the United States

It has come to this - Donald Trump the would be president of the United States, retweeting a tweet from a White Supremicist. If you don't know what "retweeting" is all about it is a message from one person  reposted by another person to gain maximum attention - the more retweets, the more popular the post becomes. Now you would only retweet a post you like or from someone you are a faan of or a post that you agree with and a message you approve of, right?  Here is the Tweet:

"@WhiteGenocideTM: @realDonaldTrump Poor Jeb. I could've sworn I saw him outside Trump Tower the other day! pic.twitter.com/e5uLRubqla"

9:51 AM - 22 Jan 2016

 

Their Twitter profile reads , @WhiteGenocideTM resides in “Jewmerica.” As for theirr header image this is what it says:  “GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY COUNTRY.”  

 

I guess this is what Trump means by "Make America great again"  Will he be taking us back to the great days of Segregtion, Hate, or even further back to the days of slavery with the support of the White Supremicists?

The presidency of the United States when age does matter

I firmly believe that age is a number, that it shouldn't determine if someone gets the job or not as long as they are physically and mentally capable of performing it. But there are limits, especially when it comes to being president of the United States or any country. Take Bernie Sanders. I actually like the guy but I worry about what the presidency will do to him. I question why someone who should be enjoying retirement is fighting for the job of presidennt. We all see what happens to young men who become president. The grey hairs appear and ageing speeds up. Just look at the young dashing Barack Obama 8 years ago and look at him today. The Office of president does do a number on you. Now take Bernie Sanders, who in his seventies already look older than a seventy year old should. What toll will the presidency take on him?

There is a reason there is a thing called retirement. After a certain age, your body and mind starts to tire. It is a good time to take on a world cruise not  world politics.

You're Fired! Donald Trump gets his due

The press adores him. Donald Trump adores himself. We have heard endless chatter about his greatness, his strong poll numbers and the fact that he is a "winner" But in the much touted Iowa primary, Donald the winner became Donald the loser. He was "fired" so to speak. I actually hoped that Donald would win this one but he didn't. Instead it was Ted Cruz - the Canadian. Beaten by a Canadian! Oh Donald, you just have to make this right.
