(From Tokyo Bay to the middle reaches of the Holy Arakawa River)Ongoing Presidential Election Reviewed
Indeed, a day can be bloody sometimes, if we are so pious.
But, a heart of stone never knows tears, blood, and sweat in self-sacrifice for any romantic cause including amor patriae.
SECTION I: Presidential Candidate Mr. Obama
-------
On Friday, Mr. Obama said he would co-sponsor a bill, with Senator Evan Bayh, Democrat of Indiana, that his campaign said would address the “national epidemic of absentee fathers.” If passed, the legislation would increase enforcement of child support payments and strengthen services for domestic violence prevention.

-------
"No Black Children to be Left Behind" must be Mr. Barack Obama’s agenda.
He has to concentrate on welfare of African Americans as his number one priority in addition to domestic violence prevention, since American voters in the primaries have voted for him mainly because he is one of African Americans but not because he has certain friends in the Bliderberg Conference members.
SECTION II: Presidential Candidate Mrs. Clinton
----------
The same too can be said of the sporting tactic of “playing to win rather than playing not to lose.” Clinton, as did Oscar de la Hoya, is “playing not to lose” rather than “playing to win.”
John Edwards and Barack Obama are still playing to win in Iowa. They are still scoring points. They will do so until the bell rings in Iowa…
Case in point: This week Benazir Bhustto was assassinated in Pakistan. Clinton has been a very harsh and outspoken critic of President Pervez Musharraf. The dynamics are myriad concerning the United States’ foreign policy in regard to Pakistan in the future, especially in light of Bhutto’s assassination and its aftershocks in Pakistan. When asked for a comment about the murder of Bhutto in Pakistan, Clinton refused to answer and walked away.
Even though she has nothing to say, her actions speak a million words…
Be assured that if Clinton is elected to the Presidency you can expect the same result in Pakistan, given her past rhetoric concerning Musharraf, that Carter gave the world with his injudicious insistence that the Shah of Iran step down and turn over power to the Ayatollah Khomeini, thus being the direct causation of the United States’ precarious relationship with Iran for the past 30 years concluding with the current situation with Ahmadinejad and the prospect of Iran becoming nuclear…

----------
If some key voters have weighed the capability any female president can at most exert facing a national crisis, such as the possible Iran War, it may be very reasonable for them to abandon the idea of imposing such a nightmare-like burden on Mrs. Clinton.
(It will not be like Mrs. Thatcher’s Falkland War, so technical but not critical, with the U.S. behind.)
Anyway, it must be noted that it is remarkable that the first full-scale female candidate for US Presidency has carried out her mission for a year or two without a fatal mistake and a horrific taint.
It is because everybody now admits that she is the very honor student leaving Bill and George behind on the campus of an Ivy League college or an elite college in England.
SECTION III: Statistics Tell Everything
Top Individual Contributors to 527 Committees, 2008 Election Cycle:
http://www.opensecrets.org/527s/527indivs.php
Money gamers, real-estate sellers, Las Vegas businessmen, oil dealers, and who else do you want?
Will American voters be proud with any winner after the election of this November while the winner will be obliged to respect those contributors, namely money handlers, housing loan sellers, sinful entertainers, and oil speculators?

No rich man or woman must be allowed to assume office as US President is my recommendation to poor American voters.
Such people should be surely left behind in the race.

At Harvard Business School, thirty years ago, George Bush was a student of mine. I still vividly remember him. In my class, he declared that "people are poor because they are lazy." He was opposed to labor unions, social security, environmental protection, Medicare, and public schools. ..
President Bush and his brain, Karl Rove, are leading a radical revolution of destroying all the democratic political, social, judiciary, and economic institutions that both Democrats and moderate Republicans had built together since Roosevelt's New Deal.

On the other hand, from a military and national security standpoint, it can be admitted that President Mr. Bush has so far succeeded in preventing another Sept. 11-type terror attack on mainland America.
Indeed, Mr. Bush must have a channel to reach Mr. Osama bin Laden through his financial friends in New York or Houston, Saudi Arabian super-rich men, Arab Islamic leaders, Islamic financiers to the bin Ladens and their friends still close to Mr. Osama bin Laden.
If Mr. Obama is elected as US President, he may still need Mr. Bush’s network.
If Mr. John McCain is elected, will Mr. Bush introduce him to his network?
I am wondering about these delicate transactions, since the Iranian War must be avoided even if another 9/11 Terror Attack is set off, say again in New York or Washington D.C., in 2009, 2010, 2011, or 2012.
[Appendix - My analysis on the Spet. 11 Terror is that President Mr. George W. Bush had not ordered or asked AlQaeda to attack the WTC towers and the Pentagon but had left it to be carried out, while some CIA reports showed clear prior-evidence of the attack plan having been formulated, as its possible target seemed to be a US embassy in Africa, a US Navy ship on the Indian Ocean, or at worst the headquarters of US Central Command in Florida, in order to leverage the result of the then possible terror for his own cause: the War in Iraq or the eradication of Saddam Hussein.]
(By the way, what do you think about this “Be My Baby” of the Japanese version, so foolish like some Japanese women alone in their 30’s displaying their delicate lives on TV?

Mat 22:1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
Mat 22:2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
Mat 22:3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
Mat 22:4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
Mat 22:5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
Mat 22:6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
Mat 22:7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
