Election reveals an undervalued presidency
What was once a proud nation with an innovative past and a consistently bright future has turned into a cheap roadside attraction filled with enough Elvis impersonators, Walmarts and Big Macs to fulfill the declining standards of Americans far and wide. As a country we have come to accept mediocrity, whether it be in the arts, the sciences or even our once-proud free market tradition. We were once sending citizens to the moon and boasted some of the greatest scientific advancements known to civilization. Now times of objectivist thought and human advancement have given way to social justice warriors and postmodern inference. Our standards are low. As we fail to take ourselves seriously, others will be quick to discount our actions.
Perhaps the greatest victim to our low standards is the American presidency. What was once a serious decision in the lives of Americans has transformed into a lifestyle statement. Our founding fathers fought the Revolutionary War to break ties with a repressive government, Susan B. Anthony campaigne for women’s right to vote and countless members of the civil rights movement fought for the equal representation of minority groups. However, when we reach the ballot box we tend to forget our proud history and take a sacred decision as seriously as a Starbucks order.
Not even the presidency is off-limits to America’s domesticated culture anymore. Donald Trump, as most are aware, was a well-known television personality, which by twisted fate has become synonymous with the modern presidency. American politics has come to a place where reality TV stars are elected for their popularity over their merit. Yes, one could attempt to argue that Trump was a “fine businessman.” However, in reality, it was his persona and personal brand and not his tact or skill that managed to keep his real estate empire afloat. As Americans, we have come to value veneer as opposed to substance. The structures that support our dreams and aspirations are unfortunately no longer valued. So long as our pursuits appear to trend toward results which may, but probably won’t, happen, we are completely satisfied — most notably in our recent pick for president.
We were once told to ask not what our country could do for us, but what we could do for our country. Instead we voted a demagogue into the highest office in the once-free world. So in a few weeks’ time as we dine this Thanksgiving, with the tawdry American tradition of football blaring in the background, remember that America was once a proud country which held itself to high standards and understood real values. If we play our cards right, even in these challenging times, America can once again value its future just as much as its past.
YOUNG AMERICANS PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE
THIS IS A MUST READ FOR ANYONE WHO ISTHINKING ABOUT WHAT JUST HAPPENED IN THE ELECTION. PLEASE CIRCULATE THIS MESSAGE ON CAMPUS!
It is hard me to believe that so many young Americans and Democrats are fearful of President Elect Donald Trump and The New Republican Party. Today’s Republican Party is the party protecting Americans rights and future. READ THIS ARTICLE.
These young people are protesting for a candidate whose message and history was that of corruption. The families Clinton Foundation is the center of the corruption. TAKE THE TIME TO READ ALL THE CLINTON FOUNDATION HISTORY OF CORRUPTION. THE OLDER GENRATION LIVED THROUGH IT THAT IS WHY THEY VOTED FOR REAL HOPE AND CHANGE.
Facts the Protesters do not know but need to hear.
AFRICAN AMERICAN CHILDREN ARE SUFFERING IN POVERTY IN THE US. THESE ARE FACTS. DO YOUR RESEARCH. PRESEDENT ELECT DONALD TRUMP LET AMERICA KNOW, 4 out of every 10 African Americans children under the age of 6 live in poverty. Think about these statistics. By the Democratic Party keeping this culture down it will create many more Americans with potential that will end up becoming in one way or another dependent on American Government. President Elect Trump offers a strong contrast to the historical norm. Let’s educate minorities, build minority infrastructure hubs and create jobs and opportunities for the minority cultures. THE MESSAGE AND PLAN IS REAL
97 MILLION AMERICANS are out of the work force. The US has about 350 Million people. The current administration was not reporting the actual facts.
The media is controlled by organizations looking to create a nationalized government. The reporters feel they are doing right because the information they are being feed by manipulated groups. Here is an Example and a dose of Truth.
For starters, The Clinton’s used her Foundation as a way for people to gain access to Hillary’s State Department. Of the 154 people who had an audience with Secretary Clinton, 85 of them donated to her Foundation in some manner.
It is important to note that these weren’t small donors either. The 85 people gave a combined donation of $156 million to Clinton’s charity.
The Clinton Foundation has also received a number of donations which were from abusive and anti-American nations. This alone undercuts Hillary’s claim that she wanted to be a champion for minorities and women. These nations included Saudi Arabia, which has a notable ban on women operating a vehicle and is against gay rights. How many Americans are aware of this fact? The bigger question is why people especially young people would blindly follow a party and individual that was bought and paid for by special interests.
Bernie Sanders and the election process were manipulated so he did not win by the DNC. You do not hear the media talking or reporting about it. The past two DNC heads which we know about manipulated the selection process of the democratic selected candidate.
The reason Americans elected Donald Trump is because he is a true businessman and has the instinct and intelligence to lead our nation. He called out all the problems.
He is not represented properly by the media. It is propaganda. He was an amazing businessman and also in the T& A Industry. He was amazingly successful in both industries. Think about it, when a comedian develops an act, is that truly who the comedian is as a person. NO
Donald J. Trump is a true American hero. People who never stopped to research him or just blindly believed the media are being fooled. The 60 Million, Yes 60 Million American who voted for President Elect Trump, took the time to understand his true message.
Even if you doubt him, give him a chance. You will eventually look at him as an American Hero.
In history we had another President who used the same ideas to change and make America great. His name was Ronald Regan. He was a movie actor who starred in Bedtime for Bonzo. He became one of the great American Presidents in our history and helped all American People. Give President Trump a chance. Learn the real facts, Study WikiLeaks. God Bless America.
This is an opinion article for Americans to really consider.
