Amy Klobuchar for President


When I first talked about Amy klobuchar..I talked about analyzing the public perception of the negative, not the positive. I talked about democrats being able to "SETTLE" her NOT having the negatives
But nobody wants to settle anybody..

But listening to Amy Klobuchar, last night... and writing my last blog about "Lip "

I no longer believe that choosing Amy klobuchar is Settling.. I believe Amy klobuchar is exactly what the Democrats need.. to both present their ideological positions, to incorporate a larger tent, to out the true nature of Trump and the problem he creates. To expand Democrats election result to State and local levels. To fight prejudice.. And be pragmatic enough to get some things done. YOU can't have it ALL

Amy Klobuchar is not JFK, Or FDR,.. the doing is NOT as important as the resolution of the problems.. You can't fix the problems, restructuring them..You got to resolve them first.
You got to resolve what Truth is, what decency is, what patriotism is, who are All Americans.. It matters as much as who you hurt as who you . Everybody belongs.. There's a place plumbers and electricians, a place nurses and home care givers, there is place factory workers and teachers... there is a place vocational training, and extras to those who choose public . It doesn't change who you are...We can all be "rich" in our lives, if not measured the size of your bank

WE don't need a new end to end this travesty...We need a new beginning.

of course it's going to take a miracle for that to happen.. For people to come to their senses.. To change the sense of self..to what in the good FOR EVERYBODY...how that GOOD mean EVERYBODY must sacrifice something.
Even if it just an idea

Amy Klobuchar will not be the end of something.. she will be the beginning.
A woman to fight the prejudice
A midwesterner to fight the elitism
A doer, not a talker..
A fighter not a patsy
She states it clearly, our need......
Resiliency, decency, honesty, and sacrifice.
So we need to get that FIRST.. Before we move on to "LESS" BOLD IDEAs.
Lets find the sky.. before we put our Pie in it.

Amy Klobuchar is not a choice to settle on... she is the RIGHT CHOICE

Come on leaf... I'm no longer just defending it, the chance.. I'm promoting it..

Michael Bloomberg could do it........Unless we stop looking for what we hope for and start looking at what we HAVE.

Amy Klobuchar doesn't impress You or others.. because you don't want to be impressed that way.. You've eaten too much shit... and want some of that pie in the sky.

I once thought... what I said about Amy Klobucahr had a CHANCE..It was a predictable possibility.. but then.. it was analytical. It wasn't my preference
Now I regret it.. I didn't see or do my duty.
Now, much like my life. I have so few more chances...But i don't care.. So Roll me under that snowballs chance in hell...And for once I won't regret it. I don't have to be correct anymore...I just have to know I'm right. Success is NOT in the ENDS.
For my ends will come too soon... to know my success.

In my view Amy comes up woefully inadequate in every way imaginable. I'm trying to be fair here but of all the 20 plus candidates in this race I would put her....DEAD LAST Cricket. I mean it...I see NOBODY, absolutely NOBODY I would want as my president less.

My gosh.. counter point.. of some nebulas, non meaning, diatribe... Yeah, I'll take your word for it..

My gosh. I fight Trumpism from both ends. just like them.. you are dishonest, and indecent.. You lack self awareness, and integrity. NO Explanation NEEDED.. By you or for you, or about you

Now.. Am i right... NO I'm not. I don't profess that my opinions are ALL right.. I welcome Dissent.... You have every right to disagree and I expect it..... but I deal with people, who wish to portray me as being ALL WRONG.. that, my Friend, is an IMPOSSIBILITY
You are no better than THEM...Taking the position that people have to be ALL right or ALL wrong.. that is the nature of my blog. That is the PROBLEM.
Love the people that are ALL RIGHT, and Hate the PEOPLe that are all wrong
And what do you get. A whole lot of Hate

NOBODY, even Trump, is ALL right or ALL wrong..It's an impossibility of the human mind.... You, my friend, are what you profess not to be..... YOU are a FASCIST.. Disguised as a socialist, Disguised in empathy in which you have none. Disguised in reason is which you are incapable..
I don't say this lightly..It's the bane of my thought about others. About how I am treated and how we treat each other.. Certainly you can't understand it.. You are incapable of it with me and with others..
MY being WRONG .. doesn't Make YOU right.

You are going need a whole lot more than other people being wrong, to prove yourself Right... Getting over the hate would be a good start.

Now Amy Klobuchar being the best.. that debatable. But Amy Klobuchar being the WORST.. when there is NO WORST... NO WORST....There can be NO WORST.. that is propaganda .. that is a lie, not an opinion. That is a Trumpism. That is having to have your way.. That just screams of manipulation and lies..That NEEDS NO EXPLANATION.

Okay let me ask.. not what you perceive As big idea, as new structures, as a Defeat of Trumpism, Tell me What are negative to you.. . what you think she bring to the tables..As plans..tell me.. that are negative to you.. .what does she .. say that you disagree with, not as insufficient but what you oppose

I have gone through the negative of every single candidate. Some specific to the candidates like being gay, or being A SELF IDENTIFIED socialist.like being Too rich, or too inexperienced. Some that apply to almost every candidate .. not Presidential enough. No honest enough, self serving and 'lip service"

Let me help with Amy's negatives... It hard for people to see her as Presidential, She a moderate.. which is offensive to some.but they cansee some gay guy as more presidential as less moderate. they can see some old guy, who use to stutter and still can put two words together, one of the biggest loser in every presidential run he has made. You think that is just unlucky?

Amy Klobuchar is a women.. and singularly her greatest drawback.
Amy Klobuchar is from the MIdWest. In some circles that is a drawback.
Amy Klobuchar is married appears happy, has a kid, is not lesbian..maybe with that she doesn't have her priorities straight.
Amy Klobuchar is a Senator, has won every election in a purple state. has sponsored more bills than the other senator, since being a member... That in this Congress with it's approval rating... could be consider a drawback.
She is hard on the people who work for her.. she expects a lot..maybe too much?
She smiles too much...Which is her dishonesty.. you can see it.. she's not a smilely person.
She's probably a Vikings Fan..

Now Leaf tell me what makes her the WorST candidate.. ?
Oh I forget... she's too short to be President

    Quoting  :

yes exactly.. helped by the true misnomer....
Amy Klobuchar doesn't beat Trump.
Michael Bloomberg doesn't beat Trump..

Only We can beat Trump...And You are WE.

The plan to figure out .. who can beat Trump.. is bullshit. defeatist. Begin with who can Trump use to manipulate with waht can he manipulate .. And is that manipulation going to be enough for a person to lose to Trump.
Without Trump's interference, and With a fair election.. every single Democrat candidate can beat TRUMP
We decide who can beat trump... NOT Trump, not the socialsists, or moderates, not the independents or crossovwer. , not the Blacks or Latinos, not the women or the gays.. We decide who can beat trump. At this point the appearance of a lack of entusiasm on the part of Democrats is they don't care who you select.. They believe anybody can beat Trump, and they are going to prove it.

there is only one drawback.. Trump will do anything to WIn.. Cheat, bribe, stuff ballot boxes. use the power of the presidency to make false accusations. create false investigation. create false security risks, Start a war...PUT NOTHING PAST THAT MAN.

Secure the election and Trump is done.
If that is done ...the only consideration as to who the Democrats put up....Is how many of his cronies go with him.

Hi Cricket - Look, you won't find a solution to America's problem at Firestone. There's more than a dead battery and a flat tire at stake here. Until you grasp that and emerge from the rage of a high wind blowing over your barbecue on the patio you just washed you will never see the possibilities. It's not a criticism, there are millions of people just like you. But America is always at its greatest when it puts stewardship of the nation in the hands bold leadership. I'm not saying reckless leadership, or an Alex Smith tip toe through the tulips.

America is in trouble Cricket. I'm not looking for a manager of the local Firestone and Amy isn't going to give the country anything more than that. Take a look at every democratic candidate that has been in the field, currently or who has suspended their campaign. All of them...every single one of them can run a Firestone in their sleep. But Amy will just show up day after day, turn on the open sign on time and sort the magazines alphabetically. Meanwhile the other candidates are nurturing international relationships, challenging the nation's innovators and inspiring people to achieve big RESULTS. What's unfortunate here is that it is YOU who hasn't been listening at all. It's about time that you do my friend.

Well Not with my chips..
Yeah, you and your glorious ideals..Self centered, holier than thou, sanctimonious bullshit..You are f*cking Playing at God...While Trump is playing the Devil..and I'm in the middle of it..

You're going to save Us all.. or none of Us gets saved.....Not with my life you're not.

The only thing worst than the insanity of a God..is the insanity of the Devil..I have made my choice..And you're just going to make me regret it.

My real choice besides choosing YOU.. which i am regretting..Is that without a God there is no Devil...If there was NO YOU.. there would be NO he.

You're not reading the electorate and evaluating the challenges ahead. I wish you would because I think if you focused on that more, along with thinking about our history you would better grasp what America WANTS and NEEDS. Right now I don't think you have a clue. You might be able to reel off a laundry list straight out of Reader's Digest but America is not a Firestone. Trust me, there's a Mad Magazine with frayed corners under the adjustable wrench in bay 3. We just can't go on like this Cricket. I'm not here telling you what to do....I'm here telling you there are millions of people who already know.

I saw an interview with Jame Carville the other day. He gets it, no doubt about it. The Clinton's may be the only ones in America who know what the hell to do. They are probably going to have to step in soon and fix this thing...and I think they will....I'm betting on it.

" along with thinking about our history you would better grasp what America WANTS and NEEDS."

Let me tell you about that..
Like you KNOW what America Wants and NEEDS ... YOU DECIDE.

I don't know what America Wants and Needs.. Because that's what America is.

America is going to get what it wants, It needs and deserves... No matter what i think.
and No matter what you think that is. That's how America Works.

You think when we discuss infrastructure.. People are going to believe you when you say.... "It's my way or the highway"..Or if you can't build bridges you are going to burn them ..Or When you say My quid pro quo is better than your quid pro quo. or you can see, hear and speak..better than three blind mice..
Ah yes .. You know better...
Maybe i think we are better off.. if you are just one in Three Hundred million, and your chance of being right is just Three hundred million to one.

I have got a real inner issue.. I can't decide... maybe you could help me..

Who is the bigger idiot
The idiot who can't understand or the idiot who talks to the idiot who can't understand.

Now I'm not saying I'm right.. but if you understand what I say.. and understand double meanings.. Understand metaphors, and varying definitions, and sexual references ( well that one is just for my entertainment)
There is no way to agree with me.. but I sure think I can make you laugh and cry at the same time.
