More Truth About The Donald...

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth A great many of us know that Donald J. Trump is a narcissist, a misogynist, a nationalist, a demagogue, and given his character, or should I say lack thereof, would be an authoritarian should he ever have control of the executive branch of our government. Irrespective of his recent statements he would be a great unifier, his history and prior statement clearly show he would not. Donald J. Trump has tapped into American angst and uncertainty over their families future and that of America. The angst is real and it is legitimate. American politicians and the establishment need to recognize this. More importantly they need to come clean with the American people and discuss issue openly and honestly without regard to their personal self interest. Beyond that they must craft real solutions arrived at through workable compromise(s), and move the nation forward in such a way all are served well by their government. Trump understands the dissa...

Was the GOP Debate a Real Debate or a Dog Fight...

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth You have to give the GOP credit, they certainly do put on a show. Whether you think it is a good sow or not depends to a large degree on your perspective as just what the nation needs at this point in it's history. For the many who are mighty angry with the direction of the country and feel marginalized by the government and the elite establishment politicians the debate was possibly just what they wanted. For those who were looking for a debate with a lot of substance and specifics the debate fell, once again, far short of accomplishing the real purpose of a debate between presidential candidates. Trump's populism with its undertones of extreme nationalism appeals to an angry party and Americans who view the answers to our national dilemma(s) as toughness, closed borders and a beautiful wall, starting trade wars with certain nations who trade with us in order to balance trading activity, deporting 11 millions undocumented (illegal) ...

Either Clinton or Sanders Would Beat Trump In A General Election If It Were Held Today...

Rational Nation USA Purveyor of Truth As the nation plays out super Tuesday it is looking more and more like a Trump nomination and a Clinton nomination is in store. National poll numbers are showing that among registered voters Clinton would beat Trump with an 8% margin and Sanders would prevail by a 12% margin, a landslide by any definition of the term. Is there any question why democrats and reasonable moderate republicans are pulling for a Trump nomination? Washington (CNN)Both of the remaining Democratic candidates for president easily top Republican front-runner Donald Trump in hypothetical general election match-ups, according to a new CNN/ORC Poll. But Hillary Clinton, who is well ahead in the Democratic race for the presidency, would likely face a stronger challenge should Florida Sen. Marco Rubio or Texas Sen. Ted Cruz capture the Republican nomination for president. SKIP In the scenario that appears most likely to emerge from the primary contests, Clinton tops Tru...

Just One More Reason to Dump Trump...

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth Getty Jake Tapper(CNN) - “Will you unequivocally condemn David Duke and say that you don't want his vote or that of other white supremacists in this election? Donald Trump, GOP presidential candidate) - “Well, just so you understand, I don't know anything about David Duke, OK? I don't know anything about what you're even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists. So, I don't know. I don't know, did he endorse me or what's going on, because, you know, I know nothing about David Duke. I know nothing about white supremacists. And so you're asking me a question that I'm supposed to be talking about people that I know nothing about. The question asked of Trump is pretty straight forward and difficult, if not impossible, to misunderstand. Trump's response is also very clear. From the clarity of Mr. Trumps response one can only deduce that candidate Trump fully understood the question T...

American Nationalist Party... A Positive Political Ideology Or Not?

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth America is angry. Angry at politicians, government, business (particularly Wall Street), fearful of Islamic terrorism and illegal immigration, concerned about our ballooning national debt, as well as host of other concerns. America is ripe for a change. A departure from business as usual in Washington DC. Folks are hungry for a leader that will promise them a change and restore the United States to greatness, The rise of Donald Trump and his nationalist populism is driven by the concerns of Americans noted above. It also explains the existence of the American Nationalist Party ( click here to go to their website ). Our purpose for posting the following is not to be taken as support for Donald Trump or an endorsement of The American Nationalist Party as it is neither. Rather it is posted for informational and educational purposes. Nationalism in its extreme is a very dangerous condition as we have seen throughout history. The formation o...

Watching The Trump Reality Show Unfold On The American Stage...

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth Why Evangelicals Are Born Again for Donald Trump Trump Eyes Nevada for Third Consecutive Victory GOP wakes up to Trump nightmare Personally, I think way too many Americans are addicted to reality shows. Oh and this teaser from The New Yorker . The Titanic sank on April 15, 1912. Nine days later, Thomas Hardy composed a poem about the disaster called “The Convergence of the Twain.” Many poets were mourning the dead; Hardy took a different approach. He asked readers to contemplate the accident’s prehistory: to imagine how, even as the great ship was being built, the iceberg—its “sinister mate”—had also been growing. “No mortal eye could see / The intimate welding of their later history,” Hardy wrote. But, even so, “They were bent / By paths coincident / On being anon twin halves of one august event.” The poem’s theory of history—as something that unfolds through fated convergences—is also a theory of leadership. For leadership to exi...

A Puzzling Problem...

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth A federal judge sounded skeptical Monday about a request from voting and civil rights' groups to block a federal official's decision to embrace requirements in three states that new voters submit proof that they're U.S. citizens. Given the influx of illegal immigrants it is just a bit puzzling why the requirements to submit proof of US citizenship is a problem. It really shouldn't be that difficult to devise a system where US citizen of voting age secures a valid picture voter ID card when they become eligible to vote, Whether natural born or naturalized.. Something along the lines of the old system of registering for the draft perhaps. A one time requirement and you done.  Starting registration in 2018 would certainly give everyone already of voting age  enough time to get the documentation needed to secure a voter ID card.
