New Hampshire – Lessons Learned

By Craig Andresen – The National Patriot and Right Side Patriots on americanpbn.com

nh 1As the candidates now focus on South Carolina and Nevada in preparation for Super Tuesday, what have we learned from New Hampshire?

Plenty.

And what we have learned is far more than just who won, who lost and who placed where. There is a whole lot more to the lessons of New Hampshire than that and to fully understand the landscape of the race for the White House, we need to do a dissection of what transpired in New Hampshire.

Trump won. We all pretty much knew that before the first votes were cast at midnight Tuesday morning. It came as no surprise even to those of us who are nauseated by Trump and his total lack of substance or any viable, articulated plan.

Bernie Sanders, the avowed socialist came in first on the liberal/socialist side of the primary and that too was a foregone conclusion as he was a light year ahead of Hillary in New Hampshire throughout the run up to Tuesday’s primary.

Who Has the Substance and the Vision?

By Craig Andresen – The National Patriot and Right Side Patriots on americanpbn.com

vis 1If America is to continue to be what Ronald Reagan described as, “the shining light on the hill,” what we need, what we must have, is leadership. True leadership. We must have the sort of leadership that holds the vision of the Founders and Framers in the highest regard and the sort of leadership that realizes that our Constitution regulated government, not guns, placed strict limits on the power of the presidency rather than on the power of the people and made government accountable TO the people rather than making the people accountable to the government.

2016 could well be our last chance to reclaim the vision of our Founders and Framers. It could well be the last opportunity we have to save our exceptionalism and to save our liberties.

What we need, what we must have, is the sort of leadership that is laser focused on what’s best for the nation, how to rebuild our place on the world stage, how to implement national security, rebuild the trust of our allies and how to stop our economic bleeding that is the result of too much government interference in every aspect of our personal lives, too many government mandated regulations and far, far too much government waste in our government’s spending habits.

From the left side of the aisle, the candidates are Bernie Sanders, a confirmed and admitted socialist and Hillary Clinton, a corrupt politician who is under numerous investigations that could, should and I believe will result in indictments including espionage against the United States.

Sour Grapes, False Accusations and Dubious Endorsements

By Craig Andresen – The National Patriot and Right Side Patriots on americanpbn.com

vote 1Well NOW, let’s take a few moments here to get a clear picture of the campaign for 2016…a snapshot…a moment in time, frozen so as to really take stock of the current situation.

Shall we?

Dr. Ben Carson is whining, Donald Trump is threatening law suits, Sanders is blubbering that Clinton isn’t enough of a socialist to deserve the liberal/socialist nomination, Clinton is doing her level best to ignore the mountains of evidence that will lead to her indictment, several candidates have dropped out of the race, others that should…haven’t and Jeb Bush’s donors…many of them…want their money back.

I’ve been to a three ring circus before and while this whole thing does bear some resemblance, I believe it comes closer to being a three ring FREAK show.

First of all…Dr. Ben Carson. Before the Ted Cruz campaign sent out an email, reporting exactly what had been delivered via CNN, you were polling in fourth place at 9% of the Iowa vote. WHILE that false report was out there…you were polling at 9% of the Iowa vote and AFTER it had been retracted but while the Cruz camp was still asking your supporters to caucus with Cruz…you FINISHED the night with 9.31% of the vote.

Please explain for everyone exactly how devastating the Cruz camp email was to your final tally.

Then there’s Donald Trump who is threatening to sue anybody he thinks is responsible for his second place finish in Iowa. He claims he’s going to sue Cruz because of the caucus night email. He’s going to sue Cruz for the prior week’s mailer. He’s going to sue Cruz for being born. Hell…I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if he threatens to sue Cruz because the rhyming campaign slogan…”Choose Cruz” comes across more positive than the rhyming slogan…”Dump Trump” does.

And now..

Recapping the Hawkeye Cauci

By Craig Andresen – The National Patriot and Right Side Patriots on americanpbn.com

ic 1Okay, the Iowa Caucuses, or Cauci (the plural form) are over and what did we learn from the fracas?

Well…

We learned that a full 43% of Iowans identify themselves as socialists and of that 43%, they had to toss coins in order to determine which of their socialist candidates would be awarded which socialist delegates. Hillary (soon to be indicted) Clinton squeaked out an extra delegate over Bernie (I intend to hike your taxes beyond bejesus) Sanders.

And how did those coin tosses go? Well…Hillary won 6 in a row. The last time a Clinton got that lucky calling heads or tails…it was Bill…with Monika.

The ‘get off my lawn” voters can relax though as Sanders will win the communist vote by a wide margin next week in New Hamster…er…New Hampshire.

That is what we learned on the government needs to take care of us from cradle to grave side of the aisle, but what was it we learned on the RIGHT side of the American aisle?

Plenty…

In 2016…it’s the GOP Nominee or Full-On Socialism

By Craig Andresen – The National Patriot and Right Side Patriots on cprworldwidemedia.net

debat 1Did you watch Tuesday night’s democrat debate on CNN?

Many on the right couldn’t stomach the display and didn’t tune in and I can understand that, but two particular factions of Conservatives SHOULD have been tuned in and watching with riveted attention…those on the far, FAR religious right…those I have called the holier-than-thou Conservatives and the Trumpers should have been GLUED to that debate and here’s why…

If they, the holier-than-thous do what they did in 2008 and again in 2012…if they split the vote as they are threatening to do, again in 2016 and the Trumpers, as they too are threatening to split the vote, should have been watching Tuesday’s debate because one of those people, on that CNN stage, or someone equally as bad (Joe Biden) or WORSE (Julian Castro) WILL become the president via THEIR proxy votes.

Who I’m talking about here are those who claim to be on our side who will either not vote at all should their one and only candidate not get the nomination or who will vote for either a 3rd party or write-in candidate thus splitting the Republican vote, assuring that either Jim Webb, Martin O’Malley, Lincoln Chaffe, Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden or the Julian Castor wins.

On that stage Tuesday night was a display of socialism at its very worst. Chaffee started his career as a Republican who became an independent who then, just a couple of years ago, became a democrat who now claims he has never shifted his position on the topics. Sounds a lot like Trump’s political affiliation history to me.

Debbie What’s-Her-Name Schultz vs The Truth

By Craig Andresen – The National Patriot and Right Side Patriots on cprworldwidemedia.net

whn 1A most astonishing thing happened at the end of July and while it did get some play in social media, it died out quickly and I believe it needs to be revisited.

It took place on, of all places, MSNBC…the lowest rated cable so-called news network out there and it was an exchange between Chris “Tingles” Matthews and Debbie What’s-Her-Name Schultz. While I’m sure Tingles the clown didn’t mean it to be a gotcha question…that is exactly what it turned out to be.

Tingles asked What’s-Her-Name Shultz…

“What is the difference between a Democrat and a socialist?”

As What’s-Her-Name Shultz began to resemble a deer in the headlights, Tingles tried to stall for enough time for her to gather herself by stating…“I used to think there is a big difference. What do you think it is?”

What’s-Her-Name Schultz was STILL frozen so the Host of Softball tried a different tact by trying to clarify his question…“A Democrat like Hillary and a socialist like Bernie Sanders.”

Obviously, this didn’t help because Hillary, as a democrat, is just as much a socialist as is Bernie Sanders and while ol’ Tingles didn’t recognize that fact…What’s-Her-Name Schultz most certainly DID and it was at that point that she attempted…not to answer the question but to respond by trying to SPIN it in a more favorable direction for the liberals/socialist voters. What’s-Her-Name Schultz, spinning like a lathe said…
