Organizing for America | Ramirez's Blog

Truth is, in the language of every primary school child in the Caribbean Island of Trinidad:
What doh (Doesn't) kill does fatten, what doh fatten does cure, what doh cure does purge...

This Kafuffle and dirty pool by Hillary is a microcosm of the Republican attack machine...

If "The Barack" could stand up to this and win, he will be able to withstand any Republican attack.

To win against the frontal attack by the "logic" and mighty will of the "rural conservatives" and their values,is to have changed the politics of the USA forever...

Remember, one does not need to be exposed to the whole virus to be inoculated... But the exposure is intended to stimulate the fight in the person...

Got to make some calls...

A Sad Couple of Days

By FromDNorth - Mar 26th, 2008 at 2:18 am EDT

Probably the sadist word of the last couple of days was the Cheney's "So?"

This was his response to Martha Raddatz’s comment that the war in Iraq has little support of the American people

Probably the most pathetic development of today was Hillary's shrug: I made a mistake, that happens. (So??")

The similarity of the two absurd behaviours was striking... the absence of remorse, shame, empathy or sadness for their respective disastrous wilful and wanton failures is remarkable..

I have stated sadly elsewhere that having been persecuted for so often and for so long by the GOP that they think that their reality is the only reality. Unfortunately, both Clintons have taken the pallor of their persecution. In that light, they think that ugliness has reached the level of normalcy...

Whether Wright or wrong, Dick and Hillary are now joined at the hip in their response to justifiable criticisms. They react the same way, move with studied precision. They should consider an audition for “Dancing with the Stars” where their ability to move as one will be legand. They are both winners... sadly

Experience Shexperience

By FromDNorth - Feb 29th, 2008 at 4:37 pm EST

Hillary insists that her Washington experience qualifies her to be President because she knows the “system". But isn't that the problem; that only the insiders have access, a say in the next steps and preservation of privilege?

Commenting from the outside, the genius of Obama is that he has the capacity to see what is behind the opaque curtain in Washington and change it to transparency thereafter. The way I see it, this will inspire confidence of the USA and liberate the creativity of all of American people to raise the economy from the bottom up. It is the antithesis of the “trickle down theory”, to the nativity of the “inundation theory.”

The economic choices of the American people will overwhelm Wal-Mart feudalism to an economy of investment and innovation, research and development, confidence thru updated infrastructure and the efficiency of capitalism. The effect will be to renovate, energize, deepen and widen the middle-class and best of all - increase the capacity of the environment to recover itself. That is the latent inner strength of America that is the capacity strength of Obama.

In the future, I do not expect that Obama will be renting rooms of the White House as a fund raiser, permit China to denude American spy planes, Putin to be “Man-of-the-Year” or leave his wife (as the President of France did) to date one of Trump’s old girlfriends. I do expect that he will remove fear as a motivator and replace it with military competence and strategic planning backed with strong tactical action.

At this time Feb 29, the campaign is showing speed of response not only to Clinton but to the WH. Such organization is indicative of a highly professional operation (dear I say Presidential) that is equipped for higher challenges. Yet, the best is yet to come.

I can't help myself

By FromDNorth - Feb 26th, 2008 at 3:09 pm EST

Permit me to get this off my mind..

I have been waiting to comment and have been biting my tongue so please indulge me...

Maybe others have expressed this so pardon the redundancy...

The Hillary's rant "shame on you Barack Obama" reminded me of a mother at her wits end, spanking her child in a mall..

I probably know the poor mother's pain... her reaction could be viewed as justified... but you know, it just ain't right... Like the mother, Hillary's reaction reeked of frustration and nerves in shambles... but like the frustrated mother, it just ain't right...

Worse, it bothers me because it made me feel: Is that the way she will speak to foreign heads of state who offend her? How will she react if Sarcozy of France were to make a pass at her? (As you know he recently married his mistress and is now on the lookout for a new one) Will the US President tear up? Will the President hold up the Communist Manifesto and scold Dimitri? Or will she swagger in mock imitation of Putin? Questions abound...

I know emotion is good when genuinely expressed, but, "Shame on you..."? She looked so .. well... bad.

I saw the tears of NH and thought "well it is nice for people to show hurt" and despite the skeptics and even if they were somewhat contrived, I gave her the benefit of the doubt. At least she is a good actor... But...

In her rant and her new mocking display, from this vantage point, she did not appear to reflect the confidence of someone who is ready for the highest office in the world... From the first day or any day for that matter...

If hers is the demeanor of a head of state in waiting, how is Hillary to take the aesthetic, if not moral high road with Chavez?... It does not become her... pity

Like many, I wish to see the past behind us and look forward to the "New United States", under Obama... "ObamUS" if you will...

Romney no Kennedy

By FromDNorth - Dec 6th, 2007 at 10:17 pm EST

I saw Romney's presentation this morning from the Bush Sr. Library. The subject was his view on religion and the Presidency. It was his view that there should not be complete separation of Church and State. (I thought the Bible said: Give to Caesar etc.) anyway, only one thing crossed my mind and I say: I never knew Jack Kennedy, he was not my friend. I do not know Romney and it will be unlikely that I will ever get to be his friend...but I do know one thing. Romney is no Kennedy...
