REPUBLICAN ELECTION CONVENTION



Tonight is the night! The presidential nomination of Mitt Romney as the President of the United States.  For the last two days, political friends of Mitt Romney, including his former opponents in the presidential primary have been introducing or re-introducing him to the American people.  His beautiful wife Ann, in her speech Tuesday evening, talked about their life in sickness and in health as a couple and about their family. 
At the convention hall, unlike in what you usually see in the previous convention of the Democrats, you can count on your fingers how many blacks and white attendees there are.  The Republican brand is quite expensive for if you are used to receiving handouts from the government, then forget about it.  The Democrat brand is more compassionate with regards to social and environmental issues and programs, easily giving money to both their CEO cronies and  the poor people on welfare.  Well, why not?  If the United States can help other countries with arms, food and money for freedom, why not start the charity at home first?  Indeed, Americans are very unselfish people, just happy to see A GIFT FROM THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA label on the gift bag of rice and wheat.  Yes, there are some disgruntled Americans when the U.S. helps earthquake and tsunami victims in devastated countries since there are so many unemployed looking for a job for more than 2 or 3 years now.  You should see the bankruptcy courts in Chicago - so many declaring bankruptcy daily.  Is Obama to be blamed or his own failed policies that he implemented as soon as he took office?  No way, after almost four years, the mantra is still "Blame Bush."  Since he's been the CEO he's done nothing but go fundraising everywhere, flying here and there.  For the life of me, no past presidents has ever been so abusive of his privileges, courtesy of the American people.  When he comes to Chicago, the murder capital of the U.S., if not the world, he would not even utter a word about it with his political cronies.  All he thinks about is - increase his campaign coffers.  Here's another thing that I just found out only recently.  I'm quite surprised I did not hear this first from the Righteous Guru, Rush Limbaugh http://www.rushlimbaugh.com whom I listen religiously - that Obama raided the sacred health ministry MEDICARE in 2009 out of $716 billions and gave the whole sum to his OBAMACARE (a.k.a AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE) program.  What a liar and a thief!

More the reason why, I like the speech of Paul Ryan, veep nominee, last Wednesday night: "Medicare is a promise."  I find him sincere and determine to do the right thing for the sake of future generations and yes, save granny from the cliff.  He won't just talk the talk but walk the walk.
As a Foreign Born Political Observer from the minority class of the population, I have a sense that my fellow Americans  have very poor knowledge of political  razzmatazz and if you ask them who are the politicians in their states, they do not know their names.  Or is it they just they do not care who's elected as long as they have the same color of skin.
Next week, it's the Democrat's turn to hold their defensive convention.  For sure, the usual bias mainstream media (we know who they are), the academic elites, the Hollywood celebrities, and the liberal pundits, will be kneeling and kissing the ass of their favorite - HONEY BO BO!
