Of course you hear that every election cycle going back hundreds of years.
What's different this time, IMO, aside from ISIS stuff, is the fact that low oil prices are causing a new type of havoc. Not really a problem except for Russia, which is being ruled by a tyrant who envisions bringing back the glory days, and has nothing to lose by being a provocateur. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <emptybill@...> wrote : Sessions: Choose carefully America, 2016 is 'The Last Chance' By Paul Bedard (@SecretsBedard http://twitter.com/SecretsBedard) • 1/29/16 5:34 PM Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, a leading voice on trade, immigration and executive powers, is urging Americans to choose their next president carefully because 2016 "is the last chance for the American people to take back control of their government." In a sober interview with Secrets, the Republican warned that liberal special interests, Wall Street moguls, and international media conglomerates are fast turning the United States into just another member of the European Union and that the effort is being led by a Democratic president eager to go his own way with executive orders. "This election is different because we have pall-mall erosion of law, the constitutional order, where President Obama has pushed an agenda that eviscerates the immigration legal system, and pushed this trade agreement that will commence decades of transferring American economic power to an ever-expanding international commission. It's just not going to stop" unless voters take action, he warned. "This is the way the European Union began," he added. Highlighting immigration and trade, Sessions urged voters to choose a candidate who will commit to killing the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal with nearly a dozen Asian nations which is slated to cost 448,000 U.S. jobs, and finally make good on 30 years of promises to put an end to illegal immigration, which is costing the nation billions in welfare and undermining U.S. wages. "This election will be the last chance for Americans to get control of their government," said Sessions, repeatedly making that point. "I think this election is the big one. To win, Republicans need to demonstrate that they care about the average person who goes to work every day," he added. Most Republicans are against TPP, and even Hillary Clinton has come out in opposition of a deal she laid the groundwork for and once called the gold standard. And there is some difference on immigration between the Republican candidates. Sessions said that if candidates don't promise to end TPP and close the border, voters should move on. "People should have total confidence and a clear commitment on those issues. If they don't, then they don't have my vote," he said. The influence of Sessions on key issues in the presidential race, especially TPP and immigration, can't be underestimated. He was the loudest voice against TPP, which the president plans to sign in the coming weeks, and helped Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz on immigration issues. He warned that if the next president OK's TPP, it would erode U.S. economic power and put trade under a powerful commission on which America would have just one vote. On immigration, he slammed decades of failed promises. "It's been a sham, decade after decade, and the voters need to know that this might be the last chance to elect a president who can reduce this tide and to end the illegality and serve the interests of working Americans. Their jobs, their wages, their hospitals, their schools the public safety, have to be put first," Sessions urged. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/sessions-2016-is-last-chance-to-take-back-control-of-government/article/2581874 http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/sessions-2016-is-last-chance-to-take-back-control-of-government/article/2581874
