Hillary Clinton’s victory in West Virginia has anchored her resolve to stay in the presidential race. Yet, as far as the presidential nomination, she is a woman without a hope. There is not a clear legal path with her nomination for president in the Democratic Party. She has been putting a large amount of her [...]

At this late date with what is expected to be a pivotal event in the Democratic primary, one of the candidates is once again seeking shallow resonance with what the mainstream media calls “white working class voters”. Anyone that has two licks of sense should know better than to listen.
The latest debate is over what [...]

A reasonable case can be made that many Americans, including voters at the booths, feel overwhelmed, shell-shocked and mystified by the past that stands out in recent memory. The Bush Administration has sold war and now that the nation wearies of war, the Democrats have stepped up to promise a change from the status quo; [...]

One idea seems certain. If you don’t like any shades of gray in your thinking, you probably love Hillary. Hillary Clinton has proved that the way that she judges any given set of circumstances as different as black and white. In other words, Hillary is really into situational ethics.
She may think in shades of gray, [...]

Not long ago, Candidate Obama spoke about the frustrations that working people in this country are feeling. Almost every American knows what he said is the truth. Many people are bitter and disillusioned because they believe their government doesn’t hear them.
Media spin-masters have been peddling fake outrage around the clock. John McCain’s campaign called Barack [...]

Recently, the words “predator” and “predatory” have been reserved for mortgage lenders and the finance industry. Predatory practices are as old as the world’s oldest profession, if any of us know what that really is.
Many politicians easily fit into the definition of predator in the minds of many. Perhaps you think of predatory politics when [...]

Barack Obama made a problematic statement in his effort to fully explain the reality of the working class. Some folks took his talk as strictly negative as he discussed guns, religion and hard feelings.

The popular dogma is that the country is run directly by the little guy. It would be refreshing to hear the truth. Americans live [...]

When you need money, what is the best thing to do? The typical reaction in government is to go after anybody that has money, especially if the amount sounds excessive. How long have Americans been sidetracked by politicians that howl over profits that oil companies manage to make across the board?
Doubtless, oil companies pay taxes [...]
