Dear plainolamerican: Last night I happened to watch a History Channel show about the influence of the Free Masonry Lodges in America. A very old document, perhaps based on ideas that had been kept in the Arc of the Covenant, was shown. A highlighted sentence said that "... individual rights and democracy should exceed group rights and influences." Based on my own observations over a lifetime, I conclude that ‘group’ objectives, inevitably, are biased toward each particular group. Groups try to get more power and influence than the physical numbers of the members should justify. And THAT notion runs diametrically counter to having a fair democracy!
The original Constitution makes no mention of having pseudo-political groups, called parties, act as clearing houses for selecting who among us can seek public office. The underlying objective of our Constitution was to have FAIR treatment of individuals, and to have those individuals control government, rather than vice versa. Letting just two political parties have widely spaced primaries, gives much greater power to those voting in the early primaries. Barack Obama, counter to principles of fair play, started claiming… ‘victory’ almost from the outset. The effect was to stampede the undecided voters to him. And when the… liberal media echoed his likely win—hours per day— that Manchurian Candidate, Obama, didn’t have the decency to demand that the media stop showing their favoritism. That’s why he will be facing TREASON charges when my New Constitution is ratified. I sense that you are a very unhappy person. Your group-against-group hatreds run deep. Our two, divisive, political parties could not possibly reflect the ideology of each of their members. Rather, voters must pick and choose the party ‘closest’ to their personal philosophies. And then they must defer the achieving of those “approximate” objectives to the supposed ‘powerful’ political bosses in Washington. If the USA is ever going to prosper, no group, lobby, nor political influence shall be allowed to dilute the following one sentence on which both the original Constitution and my New Constitution are based: “Principles of democracy and fair play shall reign supreme in the USA.” I highly recommend that no person seek public office who cannot live and breathe that one sentence. Barack Obama has done just that. That’s why Obama is the anti-Christ, and public/world enemy #1. Being suave and… ‘cool under fire’ can’t negate his being corrupt to-the-core. And Chicago—in the likely most corrupt state in the USA— doesn’t deserve to host the Olympics. Games of any kind produce mostly losers. But fair democracies produce mostly winners! John A.
