The nation is gripped by the sight of maniac and egotist Donald Trump running rampant, and displaying his racism and nativism, at the expense of civil discourse and destroying the Republican Party future.
A few Republicans have criticized Trump, most notably Rick Perry, Lindsey Graham, and George Pataki.
But it will take a man of courage; a man of principle; a man with a long public record of sincerity, authenticity, and accomplishments; a man who is not afraid to speak his mind on whatever controversy is arising, and has gained the admiration of millions of people, who see him as the “average Joe”, NOT a multimillionaire, someone who can truly relate to the lives of many Americans who come from a modest background and work hard every day to achieve the “American Dream”.
Most politicians are either born wealthy or become wealthy, and lose their connections with the middle class and the poor.
But one public figure, who has been in public life for 42 years now has NOT enriched himself; has NOT charged high fees to speak; has not become arrogant and cocky and uncaring about others. Rather, he remains the champion of the “average Joe”!
This is Joe Biden, who is being urged to announce for President, and the best thing Joe Biden could do is announce, and immediately condemn Donald Trump in the strongest terms for his nativism and his racism, and remind America that we are made a stronger and better nation because of us being a nation that has always welcomed immigrants to our shores, including some “illegals” who contributed to the nation’s advancement!
Joe Biden would demonstrate a true “Profile In Courage”, as John F. Kennedy wrote about in his book in 1956, and we can certainly use such a man as Joe Biden as our 45th President of the United States.
Joe IS the “99 percent” representative against the “one percent” representative, Donald Trump, and Joe needs to give “the Donald” a “punch to the jaw”, and make it clear the nation will NOT tolerate such a bully and loudmouth to endanger civil discourse in America!
In so doing, Joe Biden would catapult himself into the Presidential race, and would leave everyone else “in the dust”, as it would be clear he is the man of ethics, compassion, and principle needed to occupy the Oval Office in 2017!
I think what is absolutely necessary is for Donald Trump to keep his mouth open … and to keep speaking his mind.
Go, Donald!
The only way to end America’s white privilege , racism and bigotry is continue of this track of open borders south of the Rio Grande. It would be universal justice. Already experts say that by 2050 whites will no longer be the majority in America and that America will be more brown. We should celebrate the “browning” of America because it represents social, cultural and economic justice for those oppressed by America and the white 1 percenters. America is not only illegitimate in its origin which was based on slavery and exploitation of the commercial/capitalist class, all of course masqueraded as “freedom”, but America also stole native american lands and even Mexico’s land. So now the brown people from the south are slowly reclaiming their land. And that is a good thing! Soon America will be better because America will be socially and culturally transformed back to what is always should have been, the land of minorities with less and less whites (Hopefully zero whites). And whites will soon learn how it feels to be a minority. Hopefully in the future whites will become more and more irrelevant. The white European race, especially the Anglo’s have done so much damage to the world that universal fairness and justice demands that they pay. And as a bonus, with this open border policy we also eliminate Republicans, especially those conservatives who just drive me nuts with their Bill of Rights this and Bill of Rights that. I mean we can’t do anything which means progress because they are always rubbing that old out-dated Constitution! Makes me sick!
Breaking news: Doctors diagnose Trump with Foot In Mouth Disease!
HAHA! LOL
Ale, I know you mean well, but some of what you say is extreme, and we cannot eliminate Republicans, but they could do so themselves, the way things are developing.
Yes, whites will become a smaller part of the population, but all of the various racial and ethnic groups can work together, and keep the Bill Of Rights and the Constitution in force, but with a broad interpretation to meet the challenges of changing times!
Well at least this “browning’ of Americas should if not eliminate make conservatism completely irrelevant and an outcast. Hopefully this new America can change our outdated 1% constitution to a more progressive constitution of positive rights where social justice and income equality trumps individualism and capitalism.
I agree Professor. Some of what Ale says is rather extreme.
