How Hard Would It Be To Meet the President?
Have you ever wondered how hard it would be to meet a famous person? This past Sunday I was at a church where Dr. Woodrow Kroll of Back to the Bible was the special speaker, and I figured that it would be relatively easy to go up and shake his hand, and it got me [...]
Healthcare and the Power of Personality
One of the things that has been true for politics in the United States is that it rarely leaves one party in power for too long. Usually, different sections of government balance each other out. Consolidated power between the Presidency and the Congress rarely stays that way unless there are moderate voices. This is one [...]
Pres. Obama’s Negative Job Approval
When a President starts to move through his agenda at a lighting pace and makes more press conferences, you can be certain that something is up—or down. President Barak Obama is seeing his job approval rating slip just as he tries to take on Iran, Health Care and Climate Change all at a record speed.
Obama Wins Election
Contrary to what you’re lead to believe, the election of a President is not decided on election night by news anchors with big screens contacting election headquarters. In fact, President-Elect Obama just won the election January 8, 2009. The vote was 365 to 173 in favor of Pres-Elect Obama over Sen. McCain.
Is He a Natural Born Citizen?
We’ve talked at length about the qualifications for President. We’ve discussed whether a woman could be President. We’ve talked about the differences between qualifications and qualities. But what do you think would happen if it were proven that Sen. Obama was not a natural born citizen of the United States of America? What would happen [...]
What Do You Want in a President?
If you were to ask anyone what they want in a President—not just the candidates that we have today, but in general—and you’re likely to get answers that match the qualities of the current candidates. But if you could press further into their thinking, and start to analyze qualities, I bet you’d find this to [...]
McCain Afraid to Debate?
Unlikely. At least, that’s the word from former Pres. Bill Clinton: "We know he didn’t do it because he’s afraid because Sen. McCain wanted more debates," Clinton said, adding that he was "encouraged" by the joint statement from McCain and Sen. Barack Obama. "You can put it off a few days the problem is it’s [...]
Obama the Humorless
When I was studying History of Civilization back in college one of the things that I noticed was that leaders of times passed had interesting names. These names were not ones that they claimed (though one could make the argument that Charlemagne could have picked “Charles the Great”) because of the way the names sometimes [...]
Why “Obama-Messiah” is an Effective Attack
A few weeks ago the news was awash with the idea that Sen. Obama was impossible to make fun of. Many late night comics were out saying they just couldn’t find anything that was that funny—or that they felt their audiences could laugh at. Then Obama went overseas. It was supposed to be a “win” [...]
Does He Even Have a Chance?
I’m beginning to wonder if Barak Obama even has a chance of winning the election in the fall. And I’m not saying this because of the possibility of a Michelle Obama “whitey” video or Hillary not closing down her campaign so their might be a ruckus in the fall. I’m saying this because of a [...]
Do You Know this Man?
The man on your right—do you know who he is? What if I told you that he’s running for President of the United States of America? The man on the right is U.S. Rep. Bob Barr, and he is the Libertarian Candidate, and he asked something of the Republican and Democrat candidates for President that [...]
If I Were to Write Election 2008
This has been a strange time to be alive. Why do I say that? Because within my life time we’ve had: A President win almost all the states in the Union (Ronald Reagan). An impeachment of a sitting President (Bill Clinton). A successful recall of a Governor of California (Gray Davis).
Reagan Remembered
What do I remember about Ronald Reagan the President? Not much. I was 4 when he first was elected to office. I can remember being told he liked jelly beans. I can remember watching the election returns in ’84 when he beat Mondale with almost all of the states and how good that felt because [...]
