One man? One vote? What happened?

Here’s my opinion:
The biggest threat to the United States Constitution is the “Citizen’s United” decisions from our Supreme Court. Not only giving corporations “People Status” as voters but allowing unlimited money contribution to be made anonymously. Corporations or rich individuals to pour in campaign money without I.D. A grave injustice to constitutional law and threatens the “one man one vote guarantee. But, I am not the only one to make this horrific discovery.

However, here is just one ramification of this ill-conceived court decision. Where does the money come from? What one entity or corporation wishes to press its will on the general electorate? Even scarier, what foreign person or government wants to invoke its hidden agenda on the American electorate? Perhaps China? Russia? North Korea? Venezuela, Iran? Money filtering into the election process without accountability or discloser. Money indiscriminately pouring into the general media influence mix without a voters I.D. Voting without registration. Voting with a big “X” and negating the general wishes of the American voting people.

In the meantime, many American Citizens are shut out of the voting process because of not having a voting I.D. Older voters without a valid birth certificate but had voted legitimately in dozens of previous elections. People denied because of expired drivers licenses. Voters whose names were stricken from the voter registration for no apparent reason. There are hundreds of newspaper stories supporting this claim.

None the less, if you have cash and plenty of it and wish to remain anonymous, you get to vote. Money talks. Money votes big. However, Money trumps legitimate voting American citizens.

The Citizen’s United Supreme Court decision has been by far the worse decision ever handed down to the American people. Making unidentified bundles of money the biggest decision factor in current elections and elections to come. Mostly demeaning and discouraging the One Man (woman) one vote American system.

The mulling is over so let's hit the ground.

So, the Supremes made their big pronouncement. Then, let’s move on. It’s now time to get Congress back into shape. Drag them out of their tribal cave and back into fresh air. Back to sanity and meaningful legislation.

No plans for your future.

As far as I can tell, all Romney wants to do as president, is undo and dismantle the former works of the Obama administration. Especially the so called Obamacare. But replace it with what? Basically with nothing.

Romney want to undo Obamacare and offer nothing in return. Just dead air. Possibly with toxic air.

He and the Republicans have no plan or suggestion for how to lower health care costs. Just do without. Good luck. Sell your house or whatever. Pay your own way. In the meantime only the fit and strong will survive. If you get sick, too bad. Romney is just not interested in your physical troubles. Just go dig a hole and lay in it.

The is Mucho blame to go around. Si Senor.

In regards to the current debate on immigration. Certainly debating why the federal government isn’t more directly involved or making better laws to govern such. My belief is that the current Supreme Court debate of the Arizona and Alabama immigration and racial profiling laws are one based on pure politics. Wanting to blame one person…President Obama.

Consider this, collectively Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H W BushI, and George W BushII had twenty years to make this right. But, didn’t . Why?

The answer, politics. Immigration laws involves too many voting Latinos and Hispanics. A major voting block. Political suicide could come as a result of passing either Amnesty or harsh deporting laws.

All parties involved must sit down together and hammer out a workable law and go with it. The President, Congress, the boarder states, and representatives of the Hispanic community can do this. This should not be a matter of politics. It’s a matter of international law and national immigration law. If America needs young eager workers then speed up the immigration work Visas. Plus tax the immigrants and the places they work for To cover education and medical expenses.

I personally believe Amnesty should be considered for immigrants living here with children. At least get all immigrants on the Tax rolls. It would be best for business and good for America.

However, to hammer Obama for lack of immigration enforcement is ridiculous. You would have to go back to the Eisenhower administration and then go forward and blame all the remaining presidents and their reluctant congresses for this cumulative mess. This problem will never be resolved unless politics is taken out of the equation. But as it stands, it’s politics at its worse.

The Republicans are about to step in to a Nine Field. Thanks to the Supremes.

Even before James Carville said it, I was thinking , it would be to the Democrats advantage if Obamacare were struck down by the Supreme Court. The Democrats could take this one to the bank in November. Blaming the Republicans for anti-health care. Plus energizing America Democrats to get out and get rid of the Republican congress and start afresh on an all new “Single pay” health plan.

Momentarily it might hurt Obama but in the long run striking down the current health care law might be a good thing. Helping the Democrats and giving the Republicans a big black eye. And more than likely, turnover congress to the Democrats favor. Giving President Obama a more workable usable “Do Something” congress. Passing laws that would advantage all of America. Not just the few one percent.

Aah, I can see the headlines coming this November, “America sweeps out the old bags of TEA.” Or, “Finally Health and Education for all.” Maybe a headline like this, “Made in America is coming back to America.” God bless America.

The Affordable Broccoli Act.

It was mentioned yesterday by some justices of the Supreme Court that if the Obamacare Affordable Health care Act remains in place, then the next thing that laws could require is for all Americans to buy broccoli. Broccoli? Or, possibly having to buy cell phones. Maybe even required to buy funeral and burial plans.

Now let’s get real. Notions tossed out only to distract from the seriousness of the Health Care Act. Trivializing the necessity of affordable health care. Certainly a political ploy by the conservative justices. And, these grown men with their teenage notions are our finest and best jurors? Aren’t we lucky?

Where do they get these ideas? I propose that these conservative justices have been listening to too much talk radio or watching Fox News. Perhaps a bit bias. Maybe spending too much time living away from the real world you and I live in. Possibly wining and dining with the social elite up in the Trump towers. A place where logic and rationale seldom visits.

It would be one thing to repeal the Act and start all over again with a single pay system. But the true notion of the court deciding the health care bill is solid gold partisanism at its worst. An obvious attempt to thwart the president and government sponsored health care and bring the president’s reelection numbers down. Please note the timing. An election year? I wish it weren’t true but it is. Political, partisan, and counterproductive for all Americans.

If it ever gets to the point where buying broccoli comes before the Supreme Court then that would be the time to burn down the halls of justice. Wipe it out. Start all over again. But, I seriously doubt the issue of buying broccoli could ever be brought before the Supreme Court. Could it?
