into a Trump vs Hillary Clinton contest
Is Democrat-socialist Bernie Sanders the last hope
for sanity and good government in a decaying world?
By John Twigg
I'm working on what I hope will be a good and useful analysis of the malaises in world affairs that are being worsened by the tawdry and even poisonous politics in the current U.S. Presidential election process, but since that article isn't anywhere near ready yet I've decided to post below some links to and portions of eight interesting insights into that situation.
They begin with an excellent overview of how we got into this distressing predicament, we meaning the whole world watching the apparent deconstruction of the wealthiest and most powerful nation on Earth.
Next is an analysis by Bill Moyers (famous as the media whiz behind John F. Kennedy) and a colleague about how the fads of Republican anti-tax politics have been crippling many state governments.
It's followed by a writeup and transcripted radio interview from the CBC in which Anna Maria Tremonti does an excellent interview with an author who has deep insights into what is making Trump so popular. Surprise! It's all about jobs and the economy!! (We've seen that over and over in British Columbia elections yet the B.C. New Democrats continue to fail to learn that lesson - maybe this will help them grasp it.)
Next is a link to an hour-long video of the whole speech that Bernie Sanders gave on Super Tuesday March 15 in which he masterfully outlines his whole platform, but which almost all of the mainstream media ignored or refused to run. (I was watching CNN that night and I didn't see a single snippet of it.)
Then there are two smear jobs on Trump posted by Canada's left-leaning Observer online news service, which are included partly because they illustrate the kinds of things various players have been trying to do to "stop Trump" - probably to no avail and maybe even backfiring because it further angers people who already are annoyed at the news media's obvious attempts to manipulate democracy.
Finally there is an interesting profile of young Republican hopeful Marco Rubio from Florida who was vanquished by Trump on Super Tuesday but who before he left gave a heartfelt speech expressing his personal political, family and religious values. Its transcript is included for several reasons, including the idealism and theology, the likes of which are rarely if ever seen in Canada. Interestingly, Rubio today declined to be considered as a vice-presidential running-mate for Trump apparently due to ethical considerations.
So if you care a lot about politics and have a few hours to spare, be my guest. RTs welcome too.
Democrats convene July 25-28
And by the way, while the situation may seem hopeless the delegate numbers and voting rules inside the Democratic Party mean that Bernie (#FeeltheBern) Sanders still has a fair chance to overcome Clinton because he has more than 400 delegates and while she has over 600 there's still about half to come.
The problem is that Clinton also has about 400 so-called super-delegates signed up for her but I did hear one report mention that those party-insider delegates are legally able to change sides if they wish to at the Democrats' leadership convention beginning July 25 in Philadelphia, and more than a few of them could be keen to do so if the alternative media such as the grocery-store tabloids do deliver and publish what they're advertising as a lot of dirt they have about Hillary Clinton from lesbian sexcapades and using an illegal insecure private server when she was Secretary of State to selling state secrets to enemy nations.
So stay tuned! If you think it's been quite interesting so far, it probably will become enthralling. At least for political junkies.

From AlterNet news service March 17
Jim Sleeper, AlterNet
Editor's Note: This article is adapted from a Salon piece that ran on March 10, 2016.
As Donald Trump swept four more states on March 17, he did something you never see a presidential candidate do: He actually named huge corporations — Apple, Pfizer and other wardens of our Silicon Valley and Big Pharma cages — as ripe for discipline by government. Once again, he upstaged both parties’ political establishments’ hypocrisies, without any proof that he would or could actually curb offshore tax evasion and outsourced jobs. What he has done is expose our political system’s illegitimacy and unsustainability as no nominee has done since 1932.
Many observers of the 2012 Republican primary debates remarked that the cacophonous chorus line of presidential hopefuls resembled a large troupe of clowns piling out of a tiny car in the circus. Sure enough, once they’d mounted the stage, Newt Gingrich proposed that Americans colonize the moon. The late Ron Paul retorted that the only justification for such a venture would be “to send all the politicians up there.” Most candidates really did seem to have come from the moon as they prattled on about putting people’s money back in their pockets and rewarding their heroism in Iraq as many in the television audience faced declining incomes, home foreclosures and the war’s lies and wounds, and the attendant perversities erupting into American civic and social life.
This year, the Republican clown show became a freak show that may introduce the horror show of Trump vs. Clinton. Trump has said he’ll be more “presidential” after the primaries, but Nathan J. Robinson, editor of the new Current Affairs magazine and Harvard doctoral student, believes that only Bernie Sanders could restore both credibility and sanity to Democrats and to the election itself. Robinson, who happens also to be a brilliant mimic, imagines his way into Trump’s mind and mouth in a confrontation with Clinton as follows:
“She lies so much. Everything she says is a lie. I’ve never seen someone who lies so much in my life. Let me tell you three lies she’s told. She made up a story about how she was ducking sniper fire! There was no sniper fire. She made it up! How do you forget a thing like that? She said she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, the guy who climbed Mount Everest. He hadn’t even climbed it when she was born! Total lie! She lied about the emails, of course, as we all know, and is probably going to be indicted. You know she said there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq! It was a lie! Thousands of American soldiers are dead because of her. Not only does she lie, her lies kill people. That’s four lies, I said I’d give you three. You can’t even count them. You want to go on PolitiFact, see how many lies she has? It takes you an hour to read them all! In fact, they ask her, she doesn’t even say she hasn’t lied. They asked her straight up, she says she usually tries to tell the truth! Ooooh, she tries! Come on! This is a person, every single word out of her mouth is a lie. Nobody trusts her. Check the polls, nobody trusts her. Yuge liar.”Never mind that “When PolitiFact was choosing its ‘lie of the year,’ it found that all its real contenders were Trump statements — so it collectively awarded his many campaign misstatements the ‘lie of the year’ award,” as Nicholas Kristof noted. The cumulative effect of Trump’s torrent of accusations is The Big Lie technique perfected in modern times by Joseph Goebbels, adapted in America by Joseph McCarthy.
“I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot someone and my supporters wouldn’t leave me,” he has said, as if he were a 10-year-old playing King of the Hill, and although he probably won’t shoot anyone, his boasts and insults have shot new holes in the liberal democratic fabric of dialogue and trust. He is separating words from deeds more brazenly than most folkloric American political snake-oil salesmen and sleazy senators ever did, leaving words more empty, deeds more brutal and those of us who try to put words on things more breathless than ever before.
Let’s all try to catch our breath and look at what he’s doing to public discourse; at how he has exposed a vacuum in what most Americans once thought of as trustworthy political, cultural and civic-minded business leadership; at how that leadership default has hurt Republican voters whom it had thought was its base; and at how these voters’ loss of trust is metastasizing into a syndrome of resentment as toxic as racism or McCarthyism but more diffuse and free-floating, no longer confined to old scapegoats, and unlikely to be repaired or put into remission, much less reversed, even if Trump’s campaign implodes tomorrow and he’s exiled to Corsica.
The Derangement of Democratic Discourse
Trump’s behavior has highlighted the difference between what children say and do on playgrounds, where they rough out rules for civility and cooperation, and what grown-ups are supposed to have learned and become committed to do to make a society work. The difference between Trump’s kind of free speech and kind that actually enhances freedom isn’t a legal one but a psychological and cultural one: Adults understand that what the Constitution rightly protects legally, civil society rightly modulates and anyone who lowers adult public conversation to the level of “So’s your Mom!” is dragging us all down.
Trump’s brand of discourse is even worse than that of the playground. When he said that he could shoot someone without losing public support, he certainly excited the roiling horde of “militia” members, authoritarian police, enthusiasts of “Stand Your Ground” and “Concealed Carry” laws and border walls, mass shooters (who in their derangement are sometimes attuned more acutely to the subliminal signals a society is sending.
Ranting like his offends not only the decorously and well-organized rich but also the more “liberal minded,” because he “cares nothing for reproaches that he is a criminal or a guttersnipe…. Where [he] knifes his opponents is by disarming them with a cynicism and stabbing them with a morality, [H]e twists and turns, flatters and gibes, lulls and murders. ….He raves about ‘the brutal and rude unscrupulousness of the parliamentary panders.’ He calls them job-hunters scoundrels, villains, rascals, criminals. He screams that ‘in comparison with these traitors to the nation, every pimp is a gentleman.’”
Not only that, “he boasts of his tricks: ‘Take me or leave me, my object, the resurrection of the … people, is so much more superb than any contrary principle that to bridle me with morals or sentiment is to lose…”
This plausible elaboration of Trump’s slogan, “Make America Great Again!” could have been written by any discerning observer of his methods. It wasn’t George Will or Tom Friedman who wrote these particular words, however but the writer Francis Hackett, in a forgotten but still-arresting book, “What Mein Kampf Means to America,” which he published in April 1941, when many Americans still excused The Leader’s demagogic vitality, vulgarity and brutality and when many American businessmen even thought they could still make deals with him.

CBC Radio show segment explains
appeal of Trump's job protectionism
CBC Radio host Anna Maria Tremonti interviews an author
with strong insights into the appeal of the Trump campaign

The spectacular rise of Donald Trump has been attributed to his racism and bigotry, but could there be more to the man's popularity?
Author and journalist Thomas Frank says he knows the real reason behind Trump's success, and it's all about jobs.
"If you read mainstream coverage of Donald Trump, it's all focused on the bigotry and intolerance ... but there is another element, which is [he] talks about trade and he talks about it all the time." - Thomas Frank says Trump's success lies in his focus on jobs lost to free tradeFrank — whose new book Listen Liberal: Or, What Ever Happened to the Party of the People? was released yesterday — says Trump is a candidate of a "wave of outrage" that's been building since the recession for those Americans still feeling its effects.
While it was Frank's recent piece for The Guardian that pointed to Trump's promise of jobs as the force behind his success, that doesn't mean he believes in the Donald's ability to deliver.
"I'm really sorry that [some Americans'] anger is being channeled behind a charlatan like Donald Trump," he adds.

Bernie Sanders becomes the last hope for good government
With Donald Trump likely to be too mercurial to handle stressful situations wisely
and with Hillary Clinton carrying so much baggage from decades of corruption
and mega millions of donations from dubious foreign and Wall Street sources
it now appears the only hope for world peace and prosperity is Bernie Sanders

Young right-wing Republican Marco Rubio
stressed idealistic religious and family values
Young Republican candidate Marco Rubio from Florida
didn't come close to being competitive for the nomination
but he did give an interesting speech as he bowed out
after the votes were counted on March 15
The following is a link to a good profile of Rubio
and a speech transcript from Los Angeles Times
http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/03/marco-rubio-2016-wrong-predictions-213739
http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-prez-marco-rubio-speech-transcript-20160315-story.html
The following is the text of remarks made by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio on March 15 in Miami. Rubio spoke to supporters after a second-place finish behind Donald Trump in Florida and then suspended his presidential campaign.
MARCO RUBIO: First of all, thank you all for everything. I want to begin — I haven't had a chance to speak to him yet but I want to congratulate Donald Trump on his victory, big victory in Florida. We live in a republic and our voters make these decisions and we respect that very much and it was a big win. I want to begin by thanking all of you here today. And, I want you to know that I am the beneficiary of the best group of supporters, the hardest working people I have ever been associated with and I'm so grateful to you guys, thank you. Not just here in Florida. Not just here in Florida, but around the country.
I want you to know that you worked as hard, not just here, but all over the country. I want to talk to people in Iowa and New Hampshire and South Carolina and in the great state of Minnesota, where I won and territory of Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. All over. We have a great team.
I'm so grateful for all the help that you guys have given us. I just want you to know that there is nothing more that you could have done. You worked as hard as anyone could have worked. I want you to know, we worked as hard as we ever could.
America is in the middle of a real political storm, a real tsunami, and we should have seen this coming. Look, people are angry, and people are very frustrated. It really began back in 2007, 2008 with this horrifying downturn. People are very frustrated about the direction of our country. People are frustrated. In 2007 and 2008, there was a horrible downturn in our economy and these changes to our economy that are happening are disrupting people's lives. And people are very upset about it.
And they’re told that, you know, people are angry, they are frustrated, they’re being left behind by this economy and then they are told, look, if you’re against illegal immigration that makes you a bigot. And if you see jobs and businesses leaving to other countries you have no right to be frustrated. They see America involved in the world and Americans spending money and losing their lives and they see that there is very little gratitude for all the sacrifice America makes. And quite frankly, there’s millions of people in this country that are tired of being looked down upon. Tired of being told by these self-proclaimed elitists that they don't know what they are talking about and they need to instead listen to the so-called smart people. And I know all these issues firsthand. I’ve lived paycheck to paycheck. I grew up paycheck to paycheck. I know what it's like to have to figure out how to find the money to fix the air conditioner that broke last night. I know my parents struggled and I know millions of people that are doing that.
I know immigration in America is broken. No one understands this issue better than I do. My parents are immigrants. My grandparents were immigrants. Jennette's parents were immigrants. I live in a community of immigrants. I’ve seen the good, and the bad, and the ugly. I’ve battled my whole life against the so-called elites, the people who think that, you know, I needed to wait my turn or wait in line or it wasn't our chance or wasn't our time. So, I understand all of these frustrations.
And yet, when I decide to do run for president, I decided to run a campaign that was realistic about all of these challenges. But, also one that was -- one that was optimistic about what lies ahead for our country. I know that we have a right to enforce our immigration laws, but we also have to have a realistic approach to fix it. I know that we are living through this extraordinary economic transformation that is really disruptive in people's lives. Machines are replacing them, their pay is not enough. I know it's disruptive. But, I also know this new economy has incredible opportunity. I know America can't solve all of the world's problems. But I also know that when America doesn't lead, it leaves behind a vacuum and that vacuum leads to chaos. And most of all, I know firsthand that ours is a special nation because where you come from here doesn't decide where you get to go. That's how a 44-year-old son of a bartender and a maid, that's how I decide that, in fact, I too can run for president of the United States of America.
So, from a political standpoint, the easiest thing to have done in this campaign is to jump on all those anxieties I just talked about, to make people angrier, make people more frustrated. But I chose a different route and I'm proud of that.
That would have been -- in a year like this, that would have been the easiest way to win. But that is not what's best for America. The politics of resentment against other people will not just leave us a fractured party, they are going to leave us a fractured nation.
They are going to leave us as a nation where people literally hate each other because they have different political opinions.
That we find ourselves at this point is not surprising, for the warning signs have been here for close to a decade. In 2010, the tea party wave carried me and others into office because not enough was happening and that tea party wave gave Republicans a majority in the House, but nothing changed. In 2014, those same voters gave Republicans a majority in the Senate and, still, nothing changed. And I blame some of that on the conservative movement, a movement that is supposed to be about our principles and our ideas. But I blame most of it on our political establishment.
A political establishment that for far too
long has looked down at conservatives, looked down at conservatives, as
simple-minded people. Looked down at conservatives as simply
bomb-throwers. A political establishment that for far too long has taken
the votes of conservatives for granted, and a political establishment
that has grown to confuse cronyism for capitalism, and big business for
free enterprise. I endeavored over the last 11 months to bridge this
divide within our party and within our country because I know that after
eight years of Barack Obama this nation needs a vibrant and growing
conservative movement and it needs a strong Republican Party to change
the direction now of this country or many of the things that are going
wrong in America will become permanent, and many of the things makes us a
special country will be gone. America needs a vibrant conservative
movement, but one that’s built on principles and ideas, not on fear, not
on anger, not on preying on people’s frustrations.
A conservative movement that believes in the principles of our Constitution, that protects our rights and limits the power of government. A conservative movement committed to the cause of free enterprise, the only economic model where everyone can climb without anyone falling. A conservative movement that believes in a strong national defense and a conservative movement that believes in the strong Judeo-Christian values that are the formation of our nation.
But we also need a new political establishment in our party, not one that looks down on people that live outside of the District of Columbia, not one that tells young people that they need to wait their turn and wait in line, and not one that's more interested in winning elections than it is in solving problems or standing by principles.
And this is the campaign we’ve run, a campaign that is realistic about the challenges we face but optimistic about the opportunities before us. A campaign that recognizes the difficulties we face, but also one that believes that we truly are on the verge of a new American century. And a campaign to be president, a campaign to be a president that would love all of the American people, even the ones that don't love you back.
This is the right way forward for our party. This is the right way forward for our country. But after tonight it is clear that while we are on the right side, this year, we will not be on the winning side. I take great comfort in the ancient words which teaches us that in their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps. And so yet, while this may not have been the year for a hopeful and optimistic message about our future, I still remain hopeful and optimistic about America.
And how can I not? How can I not? My mother was one of seven girls born to a poor family. Her father was disabled as a child. He struggled to provide for them his entire life. My mother told us a few years ago she never went to bed hungry growing up, but she knows her parents did, so they wouldn't have to. She came to this country in 1956 with little education, no money, no connections. My parents struggled their first years here. They were discouraged. They even thought about going back to Cuba at one point, but they persevered. They never became rich. I didn't inherit any money from my parents. They never became famous. You never would have heard about them if I had never run for office. And yet I consider my parents to be very successful people. Because in this country, working hard as a bartender and a maid, they owned a home and they retired with dignity. In this country, they lived to see all four of their children live better off than themselves. And in this country, on this day, my mother, who is now 85 years old, was able to cast a ballot for her son to be the president of the United States of America.
And so while it is not God's plan that I be president in 2016 or maybe ever, and while today my campaign is suspended, the fact that I have even come this far is evidence of how special America truly is, and all the reason more why we must do all we can to ensure that this nation remains a special place.
I ask the American people: Do not give in to the fear. Do not give in to the frustration. We can disagree about public policy, we can disagree about it vibrantly, passionately. But we are a hopeful people, and we have every right to be hopeful. For we in this nation are the descendants of go-getters. In our veins runs the blood of people who gave it all up so we would have the chances they never did. We are all the descendants of someone who made our future the purpose of their lives. We are the descendants of pilgrims. We are the descendants of settlers. We are the descendants of men and women that headed westward in the Great Plains not knowing what awaited them. We are the descendants of slaves who overcame that horrible institution to stake their claim in the American Dream. We are the descendants of immigrants and exiles who knew and believed that they were destined for more, and that there was only one place on earth where that was possible. This is who we are, and let us fight to ensure that this is who we remain. For if we lose that about our country, we will still be rich and we will still be powerful, but we will no longer be special.
And so I am grateful to all of you that have worked so hard for me. I truly am. I am grateful to my family, to my wife, Jeanette, who has been phenomenal in this campaign. To my four kids who have been extraordinary in this campaign. And I want you to know that I will continue every single day to search for ways for me to repay some of this extraordinary debt that I owe this great country. And I want to leave with an expression of gratitude to God in whose hands all things lie. He has a plan for every one of our lives. Everything that comes from God is good. God is perfect. God makes no mistakes. And he has things planned for all of us. And we await eagerly to see what lies ahead. And so I leave tonight with one final prayer, and I use the words of King David because I remain grateful to God:
“Yours O Lord is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth. Yours is the dominion, O Lord, and you exalt yourself as head overall. Both riches and honor come from you and you rule over all. And in your hand is power and might and it lies in your hand to make great and to strengthen everyone.”
May God strengthen our people. May God strengthen our nation. May God strengthen the conservative movement. May God strengthen the Republican Party. May God strengthen our eventual nominee. And may God always bless and strengthen this great nation, the United States of America. Thank you and God bless you all. Thank you very much.
A conservative movement that believes in the principles of our Constitution, that protects our rights and limits the power of government. A conservative movement committed to the cause of free enterprise, the only economic model where everyone can climb without anyone falling. A conservative movement that believes in a strong national defense and a conservative movement that believes in the strong Judeo-Christian values that are the formation of our nation.
