The Democratic Party is the party of diversity. Everyone knows that. Night after night, talking-heads reiterate the message they deliver podcast after podcast, op-ed piece after op-ed piece, article after article. The demographics of the American voting population is changing and white people, especially non-college educated white people are the losers. As a result they […]
At this point in time, thanks to the demographic deluge, the Democrats should be coasting to victory. Or so was prophesied two decades ago. The Emerging Democratic Majority By John B. Judis and Ruy Teixeira Political experts John B. Judis and Ruy Teixeira convincingly use hard data — demographic, geographic, economic, and political — to […]
Adolph Hitler could not destroy America. The Soviet Union could not destroy America. Osama Bin-Laden could not destroy America. Donald Trump can but he needs help. On January 3, 2021, I posted a political action thriller blog. It was about the books and movies from the 1960s, where people were trying to take over the […]

The two cultic sites of Mar-a-Lago and Mount Ebal are rarely linked. I may be the first to do so. Mar-a-Lago is the home of a former President of the United States who is regarded by some of his followers in Jesus-like terms. It is a place where people go to kiss the king and […]
The 2024 Presidential elections is shaping up as an historic one in many ways. Of course, in this rapidly changing world, sometimes it is hard to keep up with events. I tend to read the morning papers in the evening. Frequently I learn that what I am seeing on the TV screen and reading in […]
