On The Way To The Election

An interesting thing has happened on the way to the US Presidential election. It was not something I anticipated although I did receive some indication that change was afoot. The signs of discontent are obvious in the world around me.

For those of you who know me, I have been a "conspiracy theorist" for a while now. I have spent the last few years raging against the machine that has enslaved us. I've done a pretty good job keeping up with the latest information and doing my part to educate the public on what is going on behind-the-scenes. Still, something is missing.

I have been a conspiracy theorist for around five years. I know people who have been on to this information for twenty or thirty years. When you read alternative news stories, you come to feel that big things are being done behind-the-scenes to overcome the oppression and that a major breakthrough will occur any day. There is an expression conspiracy theorists (who have at least a little time under their belt) like to use to describe such "breakthroughs". Hurry up and wait! As I mentioned, there are people out there who have been waiting thirty years for change to occur. We are still waiting.

Why is that? We are still waiting because we have been conditioned to wait for a hero! We listen to fairy tales where the white knight rides up on his gallant steed to save the beautiful princess from the terrible dragon. We study religions that tell us that, when the world has fallen into ultimate evil, a savior will appear to gather up the righteous. Here in the US, we believe a new President will solve all our problems (even though it hasn't happened yet).

What we fail to recognize is that we need to be our own heroes! When we look to someone or something other than ourselves to save us, we have given up our own power and placed it in the hands of another. Nothing happens because the power is now in the hands of someone who just desires control, and he likes things the way they are!

I have known for a while that I personally needed to step up and do something to change my world. Ironically, when this latest presidential contest came up, I once again began looking at candidates to see what they have to offer. I like Bernie Sanders because his platform is the most human and actually takes the little guy into consideration. Also, he walks his talk. Even though Trump is an insider in many ways, I don't believe he is a terrible choice because I can see the current powers that be don't want him in office. That is obvious to me from the facts that Republican leadership has not backed him (aka the Bush cabal) and that the mainstream media is going overboard in terms of twisting everything he says to make him look like a terrible monster. Hillary...I'm not even going to go there.

For a while, I found myself drawn up into all the rhetoric. That's when it hit me. Not only were we decimating the platforms and characters of the candidates themselves, but we were also ascribing extremely negative attributes to anyone who was "stupid" enough to vote for those candidates. For example, anyone who chose Bernie was automatically labeled a socialist, which brings to mind a society of lazy misfits who give up all constitutional rights because of their apathy. Trump supporters are bigoted monsters who will end up killing minorities just like the WWII era Germans did under Hitler. (Does anyone else see how extreme these views are? We are ascribing these traits to people we know and love!)

We have allowed ourselves to be drawn into the same old "us" vs. "them" arguments that are the backbone of the Divide and Conquer strategy of control the supposed elite have used to dominate us for centuries! As long as we see our family, our friends and our neighbors as the enemy, we will be so occupied fighting that our leaders can do any darn thing they want behind the scenes and make it stick!

On the way to the election, I discovered that I have changed. I can finally see the many ways I personally have been drawn into the struggles. I understand how I am part of the fight that leads to giving up my own personal power and control. I now hurt when I see all the negative attributes being placed on my fellow humans in order to keep us all embroiled in the fight.

I am done playing their game. It is time to stand in my own power and listen to the guidance of my heart. Our world will not be saved as long as we seek something outside ourselves. WE are the ones we've been waiting for! Join me!!!

Standing Up In The Face Of Evil

We live in the Dark Ages. Although there are many ways we seem to be making great progress, there is still a lot of evil around us. In fact, our shadow selves have been allowed to run amok to the point where our world is seriously out of balance--almost to the precipice of total destruction. The thing is, denying evil does not make it go away. We have to acknowledge that it is in our midst and deal with it so it no longer has the power to destroy us.

I believe humanity is on the verge of waking up to this because of how blatant the corruption has become. Constant wars, terrible environmental destruction, poverty, disease and a host of other worldwide problems are starting to be identified for what they are--problems placed on us by those who would consider themselves "elite" (aka those with all the power and wealth). Deep down, we understand we cannot survive this destructive path.

For the first time in a long time, I see people waking up to the evil and taking back their innate power. If the US presidential elections are anything to go by, people are waking up in droves. In the Republican party, the chosen candidate (Trump) was fought against by party establishment tooth and nail until it was apparent he was too popular to deny the nomination to. This is why, for all intents and purposes, the Bush family and their underlings have refused to support this nomination and would not even attend the convention. It's also why they have at least all hinted at their support for Hillary Clinton. I recently saw a quote from George W. Bush saying he was afraid he would be the last Republican president! The party is definitely changing, and I believe it is because people finally understand our country cannot survive if we continue down our present path.

In the Democratic party, people are also beginning to wake up and stand up. While I understand the annointed candidate, Hillary Clinton, does have some legitimate support, she does not have the support the media would lead people to believe. Besides co-opting pretty much all of the super delegates from the beginning, there have been numerous reports of voter fraud and other problems all over the country. When Bernie can fill stadiums and Hillary has trouble filling a high school gymnasium, you cannot tell me Hillary has a legitimate claim to the throne. The media may fluff it over, but anyone with eyes that wants to see truth can see it.

The thing is, until we are willing to stand up in our power and claim the victory, evil will continue to rule. The Republican Party has been reclaimed. No it is not perfect by any means. Yes, things still need to change. Democrats need to do the same thing at the convention and stand up to party leaders and force them to accept Bernie as the nominee. Otherwise, the current powers that be have won and nothing will change.

Until we are willing to recognize our shadow selves and acknowledge them, the darkness will continue to be much more powerful. Until we are willing to stand in the face of evil and intentionally reclaim our own power, we cannot expect the outside world to change. It is up to each and every one of us to make that difference.

Beyond Politics

Here in the US, presidential politics are as ugly as I have ever seen them. Everyone (myself included) has been trying to argue why the other candidates are unworthy to hold office. The worst part is, our politics have gotten so bad we are now attributing terrible evils to not only the candidates themselves but also to the people who would vote for those candidates. It is time to take a good, hard look at this practice. We are allowing the powers that be to divide us even farther by seeing our fellow humans as evil because they would vote a certain way. This needs to stop!

Let's take a look at Donald Trump. He's egotistical. His morals are lacking. He's harsh and gruff and often has a case of foot-in-mouth disease. He promotes separation by his talk of building a wall along the Mexican border and his scrutiny of Islamic immigrants to the US. The memes I've seen on Facebook about him are terrible. People equate him to Hitler. They believe those who want to vote for him are mindless, brainwashed sheeple who themselves will go along with acts of separation and evil in the name of safety. One question: is this true?

Let's take a look at Hillary Clinton. She flip flops on the issues over time. She's deceptive and will say anything to anyone if it will get her elected. Her handling of Benghazi leaves many more questions than answers. Her personal email server problem at best makes her look incompetent. At worst, it makes her look criminal. Many people believe she thirsts for war. We're perhaps easiest on her supporters, seeing them as easily fooled and naive.

Let's take a look at Bernie Sanders. He's considered a socialist whose ideas for change would bankrupt the country with all his freebie handouts. (Newsflash: the US is already bankrupt!) He is considered clueless with ideas that would never work by his opposition and his supporters are seen as lazy kids and welfare recipients who are already living on taxpayer dollars.

Let me pose this question: what would actually happen when one of these three get in? Will the world stop spinning? Will we begin to lock up our Moslem brothers and sisters because of their religion? We will go to war with Syria or Iran and watch our children be sacrificed? Will our country become so bankrupt that we have to fight each other in the streets for scraps of food because our economy has totally collapsed?

The answers to these questions lie within each one of us. Who are we inside and how will we choose to deal with the problems that will inevitably show up? The outcomes of our lives are not determined by who becomes president. What shows up will be the result of who we are as people.

Can a president force us into war? No. We can stand up against it. Can a president round people up into concentration camps based on race or religion or political affiliation? No. We have the power to join together and stand up for our own rights and the rights of others. Will our country's bankruptcy force us to fight for survival? No. We still have the ability to distribute necessary food and supplies if there is a problem with money. The point is, a president can lead us in a certain direction, but it is our choice to actually go there.

We need to begin to search inside for who we truly are. Are we love? Are we peace? Are we joy? If something outside ourselves is not congruent with this, it is up to us to fix it. The only way to change the world is to BE the change!

Allow yourself to see beyond politics! Know yourself. See your neighbors for who they truly are--beautiful beings of light and love who also desire to live in peace and abundance. If we choose to do this, our world will change for the better.

How YOU Can Make A Difference In The Political Process!

I've been seeing a great deal of hoopla in support of US Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. I have to confess, he is my favorite candidate running, mainly because he is the only candidate I see that seems to have a heart for people. I don't see his financial propositions working within the monetary system we currently have. Then again, I can't stand the monetary system we currently have because it has become extremely warped. To me, arguing about the details of his financial propositions is counterintuitive in a world many of us desire to re-create anyway.

That said, the powers that be don't like Bernie. It is extremely apparent (at least it is to me) he is a threat to the status quo. Consequently, the behind-the-scenes powers are working extra hard to give their candidate Hillary the Democratic party's nomination. The thing is, if enough people feel that strongly about him as President, we do have the power to change the outcome. It will require effort on our part.

First of all, the powers that be will do anything and everything they can do make sure Hillary at least has the illusion of more support of the people. This includes lying, cheating and stealing. There will be and have already been crazy shenanigans with miscounts in caucus precincts. There is absolutely no accountability when it comes to black box computer voting because of "proprietary" software rights. If we can't openly go through every line of computer code used to tabulate votes, we cannot allow those computers to be used. Period. We need to literally stand over every proceeding, every caucus, every vote and hold those in charge accountable and responsible for everything that happens. We need to count and recount. We need to make sure paper ballots are not misplaced or relocated.

It is even more important to participate in local and state level delegate nominating events. First, we need to arm ourselves with information about the legal proceedings in our states. Attend these meetings as a registered party member. Again, watch the proceedings like a hawk and know what is supposed to happen. Work within their rules and make sure party leaders do as well. County and state delegate meetings are where the real SHTF!!! They elect those representatives who ultimately become delegates to the national convention. Bear in mind that many of these delegates will be slated for a particular candidate. A few of them will be at-large and are free to vote their will. Understand that the leaders of your state Democratic party will attempt to make sure these at-large delegates are Hillary fans. Also keep in mind that, depending on how the convention plays out, it may be possible for delegates to be released from voting for the candidate they were chosen to represent.

The real fun comes in when you have a brokered convention, which is much more likely in this Presidential election because We the People are angry. While delegates are slated to cast their vote for the people they are there to represent, there are events that can happen during the proceedings which then allow these same delegates to vote their conscience. That said, party leaders will do everything in their power to not let it come down to that. Again, know rules of procedure. Do not allow party leaders to control what people can and cannot say at the convention, especially when the rules allow for such speech. Understand that if the delegates are strong enough to stand up to party leaders, they have the power to rein in the nomination process. If party leaders refuse to follow the rules and choose Hillary anyway, this is when delegates will be forced to stand up and explain the lies so that We the People are no longer fooled.

We can no longer afford to just sit back in apathy as present-day leaders continue to steal our power! It is time to be aware. It is time to supervise proceedings to ensure fairness and honesty. It is time to stand up and take our power back! By working together, we can make a difference in our political process!
