A REPEAT!

Curtis, Senate majority leader when tapped by Hoover for the Republican ticket, was also the first person with acknowledged little or non-European ancestry to reach the highest ranks of the federal government."

Unconstitutional Parties



Our nation is divided.  Parts are the political divisions, Republican or Democrat or the Political Parties that were not part of the Constitution.  There is nothing in the Constitution that provides for today’s groups including opinionated News.  The Constitution sets none against the other.  The human frailty of the likes or dislikes for the others stem from allegiances to families, schools, neighborhoods, cities, the binders of our ideas. Problems come when choices are made.  The intent of the Constitution was to provide dialogues, discussions, agreements to govern. The Constitution provided for Congress, Executive, with the Supreme Court as mediator.  Our current problems started in early nineteenth century when Political parties became larger and more divisive over significant opinions.  Businesses were major concerns as far back as the fur trade.  Our problematic relationships with Native Americans were very early.  Not the only problem, was slavery.  Race relations progressed, yet not resolved through Republican sponsored Amendments Laws, actions, yet residual problems exist.

The organization of the House of Representatives and the Senate set up a choice of leadership wherein party pluralities of one group chose leadership positions.  This provided more strength to the political parties which grew in strength.  The eventual alignment of political parties toward liberal and conservative ideas, since the Civil War, helped to set up today’s racist allegiances as well as placations by political parties which evolved and sustained the divisions of Americans; by race, groups of workers against business, News media in favor of candidates.  Our problems are human nature, which does not like freedom of speech by the others. The unbridled attacks on our president know no bounds.  It is common to refer to persons holding political office as "The Honorable."  From what I've witnessed from those opposing the President are anything but honorable. Cardinal John Henry Newman wrote, “It is almost a definition of a gentleman to say he is one who never inflicts pain." You should add ‘gentlewoman’. Today’s inflictors are; Pelosi, Schumer, Government Employees, Military hierarchy, elected Republicans, against Trump and conservatives.

Can Military be swamp dwellers?


Mad dog Mattis;

After nearly two years in the Pentagon, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis announced his resignation - amid disagreements with President Donald Trump.


Does it bother anyone that a swamp dweller might be a military member?

Where is it written that the President must agree with the political leanings of the military?

Trump did come to office with the pledge to; "Drain the swamp".

When and where the long term dwellers show up there can be an obvious disagreement. Maybe Trump is trying to rule, but the military is subject to the president and the reorganization of the of 1958 - look it up.
