ACalm,InTheSwirlOfHistory
For the 1sttime in the History of this country, WeThePeople, specifically ThePeople of the Democratic persuasion have offered up, as their Party’s choice to have a Go at the WhiteHouse, someone other than a middle to old aged AngloSaxonMan. That makes my Soul smile, that makes my petrified patriotism begin to crack & soften, that ever so slightly improves the entrenched feelings of hopelessness I attach to the ElectionProcess & the VotingPublic. It has been officially 232years since the 1st bricks were laid in the foundation of this Country, of this Experiment, & those 1st bricks were mixed, formed & placed by African imported black-skinned Slaves…232years later, after America’s “OriginalSin”, a black-skinned African descendant is 1 of 2 people left in place to inherit TheThrone inside the Castle of FreeNations & OpenSocieties…It’s about damn time.
It obviously would have been a historic result either way, very different versions, but historic nonetheless, with Clinton or Obama…But Obama did it with poise & aplomb, with a convex intellectual serenity, with a bulletproof vest of charm & charisma, with a certain calm amidst the swirl of History…Mister B.Obama aka “Rack-O”, prounounced “Rocko” (Could that work? “Rack-O” as 1 of these celebrity tabloid mag abbreviations ((for the slower crowd - barRACK Obama)) “Rack-O”, probably not, ok)…But Obama did it, He wrapped it up, wrassled’ it down & is now treading lightly sideways. He jetplaned across the AmericanSkyscape sprinkling his MojoDust from SanDiego to SanJuan, from Sandusky to Sanibel Island, smiling, orating, charming, inspiring & ripping that stinking sense of Entitlement right out of Hillary’s clutches, planting a firm Flag on the SouthLawn advertising & foretelling of a new brand of Politics, a turning over of the dry infertile political soil in DirtCity, recalibrating the dials, redrawing the maps, replowing the fields, reinventing the textures, tones & tenors of the most influential vantage point in TheWorld…
MissHillary & her dummy Husband really showed their collective Ass this year. The ClintonDuo sadly managed to demonstrate with everyday that passed, a new way to do & say anything to anyone to get that Nomination…Promising more & larger agricultural subsidies to the Farmers of the Cornbelt, promising a rethinking of our TradeAgreements to the BlueCollars & Unioners of our textile & factory regions, & the most disingenuous political promise, I thought, was to the people of PuertoRico, promising Statehood, if elected…Sure, whatta joke right?...I think she would have promised her daughter up for pillaging, if that was what was required to win…It was crystalline desperation in the face & shadow of a NewMovement assembling in politics, in the shadow of a new Sun rising & shining over the eastern horizons of the Atlantic waters, its hopeful Rays purposefully bathing & exfoliating the slimy epidermis of the SnakeSkin that is our federal government…Impregnating the Halls of Power with a youthful exuberance & progressive posture, a reinvigoration of purpose, origin & destination, a “houseflipping” at 1600Pennsylavania, a restoration of a government power structure in disrepair & disrepute, the result of lifetimes of neglect & self dealing…I have said it before & I will say it again…Mr.Buttersmooth, Rack-O, is the perfect antidote, the tailormade customfit answer, to the Disease that has infested, ravaged & corrupted our once respected & inspirational political mechanisms.
►My DreamTeam scenario for the Ticket: B.Obama & JuniorSenator from Virginia, MisterJimmyWebb…MissHillary should be appointed the Secretary of Health & Human Services (HHS) & work her HealthcarePlan through the System.
