METHODS FOR DEMOCRACY-- THE FOURTH OF JULY

The global conscience regularly goes on a "pro-democracy" crusade targeting any country that is not in the "Washington-friendly" clique.

Democracy in and of itself is an old, interesting, and sometimes effective and beneficial form of government. The ancient Greeks were the first pioneers in designing democracies, and every time the common people of any land began to show signs of being too powerful for their overlords to absolutely control, either they were slaughtered and thinned out, or their complaints and desires were somehow addressed and placated.

Here in America we enjoy the benefits of the democratic ideal, we are not a true, efficient, or even esteemed democracy in the eyes of the citizens of our land, or of other lands.

That being said, we do enjoy certain freedoms, rights, and privileges that exist because the founding fathers of our country endeavored to invent our country as a democracy, and even through our multiple mission shifts along the way, we do still enjoy the benefits of their grand experiment.

Our population being geographically isolated from Europe is also somewhat intellectually and socially isolated from European history, and common European ideas.

We tend to have a very sophomoric understanding of the history of Christianity, and therefore are very likely to be seduced by any idea that contains a "christian undertone". Europeans can walk everyday past Milena old churches and glorious christian relics, but they must also walk past the dark and sinister historic markers of this same religion. This benefits Europeans in that they never lose site of the fallibility of their own main religious sect. Americans however have been allowed to forget about the dark side of our primary religion, thus allowing us to only see Christianity as a powder blue, benevolent, sing-songy, heavenly fantasy that is often followed blindly by people who are too busy, and or intellectually lazy to investigate her history.

Europeans should understand this when they are assisting Washington to bring democracy and religious freedom to countries targeted for the same. Europeans should remember that America itself doesn't represent any admirably modern model of democracy, and her people don't have a sufficiently cerebral understanding of the history of Christianity to be lobbying for its advancement into other countries.

Global acceptance of U.S. currency and a general ignorance in third world populations as to the nature of the real value of the same is responsible for our high quality of life. Or at least our relatively large amounts of disposable cash. Most Americans can buy virtually any reasonable luxury or comfort that pops into their heads without the painful saving and scrimping that would happen in a third world country. This advantage isn't a result of "democracy", rather it is a result of the worlds acceptance of our "fiat currency" regardless of our likely hood to make good on our national debt in the years to come.

American citizens intuitively understand the wrong in forcing our military into other lands, we understand the concept that not all peoples are better off in a democracy, but most also can't put these concepts into words, and most people certainly can't have their conclusions and true hearts opinions reflected by the actions of our government.

Essentially, Americans are far too busy earning a living to take the time to make their feelings known and respected by our government. Many Americans have been intellectually engineered to be be illiterate , and helpless regarding the very subjects that are right now affecting the lives of future generations.

We have been engineered in America to believe many things such as the infallibility of Christianity, the integrity of the press, the fairness of our law enforcement and judicial system, the evil of the former Soviet Union, the evil of Arabs and Muslims, and the pseudo divinity of whatever decisions are taken by our ally Israel, are but a few of the sacred maxims drilled into the psyche of a modern American.

America was for a long time an apartheid state, with our black population being imprisoned at the bottom of our caste system.

While I strongly disagree with the conditions that we have negligently allowed to engulf our blacks, I also strongly disagree with the methods used to remedy these pitiful conditions.

Desegregation in America has in a large part ruined and injured our country. The black neighborhoods have not been uplifted, and the black people have only benefited by having the use of more fiat currency to purchase trinkets and baubles at walmart. They have not been engineered to be more "equal" to the whites, and they are in a much worse condition to produce anyone who is "excellent" in his own right.

Desegregation has only served to line the pockets of suburb builders, and the financiers who lended money for their construction.

Cities should be designed for living, what kind of living can a family do when their children are bussed all over town, and the parents have to work 50 hours each to pay for a mediocre home in a neighborhood that is "safe". What is really meant by "safe" in America is "safe from blacks".

When a white person talks about a safe neighborhood, they mean few if any blacks. Our blind and stupid plan to "help" blacks by desegregating them has only hurt them, and hurt us. When a man has to drive an hour in traffic each day just to afford a home that he is "safe" in, or safe from blacks in. There is really something wrong with the country as a whole. This same man, tired from working himself to death, tired from driving all over town, comes home to a tired, worn out wife, cranky kids, and has to eat quickly, and get to bed at a reasonable hour to be able to get up tomorrow and fight it out again.

How can this same man be able to think about complex issues regarding government policy, foreign affairs, or even when or if he can find the time to vote in the next election. This is a formula for "broken democracy".

Oh yes, we have democracy in America, we can vote for whoever we choose, but who has the time to think about who to vote for, much less has the time to talk to his friends, meet at a bar and discuss affairs of state, or god forbid, run for office himself?

Our black people are not the cause of American problems, they are the victims of a poorly engineered, and suddenly divested apartheid state. They are however living in a post apartheid societal power vacuum essentially in political equality with the whites, and they now bear equal responsibility for the success or failure of our nation as does the white man.

Americans are themselves responsible for the state of America, we were given a giant glorious land, we were given the framework of a democratic country, and we have allowed ourselves to become intellectually, and spiritually, and culturally vanquished, all for baubles, trinkets, cheap parlor tricks, and all without one single president ever standing up to work for more rights for the people, every president we have had for the last 80 years has agreed to the atrophy of the citizens rights.

Does anyone in their right mind care about the tacky sexual antics of the Clinton family? Is there anyone who is happy with with how the Bush mafia family has mugged the people of Iraq using American tears, sweat and blood as the grease for his oil pumps?


Isn't it high time we as a people stop being seduced by a full head of hair, a pretty wife, a clean criminal record, and a sweet southern accent?

Half of our nations voters are women, and it is our collective shame that they are not substantial enough as judges and sages, to use criteria higher than physical looks, or presence or absence of embarassing vice, to pick their favorite candidate!

Somehow we have gone wrong with the way we have coddled, spoiled, and intellectually hobbled our nations daughters. We are all wrong for not training our daughters to the same moral and emotional standards of our sons. Now we pay for our sloth ,as our nations daughters vote for their favorite candidates, using the same genre of criteria as our children use to decide whom to invite to their birthday parties!

We dare to export democracy to other countries from A to Z. We are a long way from perfecting, or making operational the same ideas here in America.

As a nation we need to remember that sometimes life under a good king is better than that under an evil president.

We forget that other forms of government are often times more suited to a population and culture than what results from a "democratic revolution" or from a forced military expulsion of a leader unpopular to us.

We collectively forget that some people are actually living well, compared to how the will be living under a fledgling and most likely crooked democracy.

If we as Americans barely have control over our government with all our "money" and experience with "democracy" ,, how can we expect the peasants of Africa, south America, or the cash poor educated persons of Eastern Europe to control their "new " democracies.

If the people of Europe want to advance "democracy" globally, they would be wise to first correct it here in America. Help the poor to find justice in court, help establish political science and economics universities which are free and accept all students. Give amnesty with witness protection benefits, to any U.S. policeman, soldier, CIA officer, or government official who comes forward to blow the whistle on violations of America liberties.

If the people of Europe were to help us gain real democracy here in America, our people could begin to intellectually and socially develop into a citizenry that could actually bring freedom to the oppressed of the world and make the planet a better place.

It is almost diagnostic, that as a broken and sickly democracy exists here in America, any U.S. efforts to promote democracy globally are either fraudulent in nature, or incomplete enough to be effective.

Imagine what kind of trouble the U.S. government would be in if we tried to build a democracy in another country that had better system than our own!! That is why we never attempt to correct countries in Western Europe, Australia, Costa Rica, New Zealand, Iceland, Scandinavia, to name a few. If our people started comparing the specific rights enjoyed by citizens of foreign countries, they would be outraged at their relative oppression.

If there is anyone in Europe who cares about global democracy, then PLEASE, PLEASE, I IMPLORE YOU,,,,, HELP US GET DEMOCRACY HERE IN AMERICA!!!

Help the American black to become excellent, help the white man to be free from skewed and co-dependent decisions based around the black man. Help our women to be wise and just. Help us to pick politicians who will not rob and betray us. Help us to develop mechanisms where we the people ,have virtually real time control over how our politicians vote! If you help us to become educated in the areas of economics and geopolitics, we will no longer be ignorant, and we can use our economic and military might JUSTLY!!! Right now we are a nation of heavily armed ignorant peasants with pocket fulls of fiat currency. Help us to become excellent, and then we will help make the world EXCELLENT!!!

Please help us break out of our chains and become free men again. Please give help us gain our independence again.

As a white male with a full head of hair and a beautiful wife who now resides in a southern state, namely the Commonwealth of Kentucky, I nevertheless aplaud your Fourth of July Posting. Keep up the good writing. I do have some slight differences in your black culture stances, but however,for now I will choose to take time to respond in rebuttal, for the sake of clarification, at least, if not refconsideration. I will take some time to reflect on my own position, tho, and will be responding in due and proper time.
Keep the faith.

Peace and grace,
The Woodster
