Now the Hard Road Is the Only Road

Oct 14-Now, at last, force yourself to face the facts. This bad joke of a nominating process can never produce a Democratic candidate who could be honestly elected by the American people. Hillary Clinton has decided to be, -or has been decided to be, -the candidate of Wall Street. She was already the cheerleader for the Bush-Cheney-Obama wars and murders in Iraq, Libya, and Syria. And Bernie Sanders is now the candidate of the hated Barack Obama, whom he used to attack, but now praises and supports. The corrupt fundraisers for Obama's campaigns, who smuggled in drug-money under cover of anonymous internet contributions in 2008 for Obama's fraudulent victory over a better Hillary Clinton, -have now moved over to perform the same service for Bernie Sanders. (Nothing need be said of the Republican so-called nominating process.) Such morally-failed candidates, Wall Street and Obama candidates, can do nothing to begin to reverse the destruction the United States has suffered under almost 16 years of murderous Bush-Cheney-Obama tyranny. Rather, they will blast the country to oblivion well before January 2017. A different nominating process must be begun now, directed not so much to nominating a single individual for President, but much more towards the creation of a Presidential team, like Franklin Roosevelt's or George Washington's team, for example, which unites within itself the qualifications and the knowledge to rescue our country while there is still time. And like Roosevelt's and Washington's teams in their time, that team must be assembled now, in and around Manhattan. First, to deal with the obvious objection. If you say that that is "impractical," then there is something very important which you yourself must learn right now. Practical people are dead people. The deadness which is already within them, will manifest itself quickly, now, as biological death, unless they renounce "being practical,"-or else, one may hope, are rescued, although through no merit of their own, by the creative people, who are not practical people. This is what Edgar Allan Poe tried to teach you in his great stories, "The Pit and the Pendulum," and "A Descent into the Maelstr m," among so many others. Reread them now. Indeed, he sacrificed everything to teach you this; and now, well over a century later, have you learned nothing at all? This country can only be saved when the great mass of the people take their cue from the few creative people. Only a new Renaissance can save this country now.
