The Maurice Clemons Story

The story of Maurice Clemons is too preposterous to be a book. Clemons could only achieve reality and credibility in everyday normal American life. This is the culture that we want to export to the world? 

Mayor Mike Bloomberg Wants To Be Vice President

According to a recent quote by Mayor Bloomberg, " Who want's a 5 ' 2 " Jew in the White House?". Well Mike, you do. But not necessarily through the front door.

His interest in national politics is a given. It's what he can achieve is the question? Which leads to my speculation that he would eagerly settle for a VP spot with either party. And then run later for the top spot on his own ticket in 4 or 8 years. His credentials would be first and foremost a personal commitment to spend a sizable amount of his own fortune. Say $250-500 million. Another asset would be his appeal to center-left voters and also his state of New York offers a bunch of electoral votes. His best liason would be with Mike Huckabee. Huckabee is a christian conservative and so would cover the right by center-right electorate.

This Judeo-Christian axis would bleed some of Obama's base who looks like the guy who will be the democratic presidential candidate. But I think Obama will win in the end.

Mike Huckabee: Time To Exclude Evangelical Christians From Public Office

Evangelical Christian and presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee warned ," We must be alert and monitor Pakistanis that come to the U.S.". This xenophobic response was given at a press conference in West Des Moines, Iowa yesterday when asked about his thoughts on the asassination of Benazir Bhutto. He didn't mention that her embrace of U.S. interference in Pakistan's politics was the probable cause of her death. No this religious looney wants to continue America's failed foreign policy that is partially supported by evangelical christian extremists of which Bush and Huckabee are members.

Church and state shouldn't mix. It's time to exclude from consideration evangelical christian extremists from public office on the premise it would require a lobotomy or death to free up an evangelical from his or hers religion. They are as looney as the Islamic jihadists who also share the lack of maturity to lead a nation.
