THEPOLITICUS- Everything Regarding the Politic

Obama has created his own presidential seal, so to speak. Nobody thinks this is inappropriate?

I support the candidates of the slogans and others but I think it goes a little too far. The seal of the President of the United States is a sacred emblem symbolic of the most powerful political leader in the world. This in no class Obama makes fun of him, in my opinion. Does anyone else agree or am I taking the wrong direction. http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/06/20/the-great-seal- de-obamaland / Finally, I have some answers. First, a cookie recipe? That's all you got? Secondly, I am not a Republican "Repeating nothing like a parrot. I'm a libertarian. Third, is a copy of the presidential seal. It is almost identical, except that it has changed the Latin motto of the singer of "Yes We Can "cornfield and the center of the logo.'ll Be back later with more …

Democrats really do not want Obama. They have lost control of his party, as sure as the Conservatives lost control of the Republican Party. Both are run by unelected tyrants who dominate American policy to ruin United States. We have candidates who represent the American people. They have been pushed down the throat after tortuous manipulation. For Democrats, Obama, its symbol, and his campaign are just another donkey dung!

Signatures Please: A Day in the Life of a Reluctant Activist

 As I venture deeper into the bizarro world of political activism, I’ve discovered an activity so outside my comfort zone that it causes me to break out in hives.  I’m referring to the agonizingly tortuous act of signature collecting.  Several months ago I made a commitment to assist a local candidate in his race for US Congress.  I deeply believe in my candidate’s conservative message of limited government and free markets, thus I am willing to take one for the team.  I also recognize the vital importance of getting conservative candidates on the ballot.

Last week I was collecting signatures at my local library and had a surreal experience.  There I was with my clipboard and phony smile, hoping for the sweet release of death.  I had chosen the library that day because the US Census Bureau was putting on an event that I thought might draw a crowd.  The event was called the Census Portrait of America Road Tour, a civic outreach and awareness campaign touring cities around the country. 

The event included 2 huge tour buses, a big screen TV playing videos and a large network of educational display panels.  They had tables loaded with census schwag that they—and by they I mean we the people were giving away.  There was a plethora of “free” items including:  t-shirts, hats, travel mugs, pens, pencils, magnets, tote bags and chip clips.  

A library visitor approached me and I asked for her signature.  She was so distracted by the spectacle she said, “Wow! Is this where all my taxes are going?”  I could only shrug.

I imagined the census workers to be rather left-leaning in their politics, so I did my best to stay downwind of them as to not engage them in conversation.  I was not there to debate anybody, only to collect signatures.  Much to my surprise, several of them went out of their way to approach me and they were extremely pleasant.  One gentleman brought me 2 tote bags full of “free” stuff.  He said one was for me and one for “a friend.”  I figured me and my imaginary friend were paying for the stuff anyway, we might as well give it a good home.

I was pleasantly surprised by the response I got to asking for signatures.  It was a stark difference from the vibes I got from people outside Market Basket, where I was more likely to be told, “I don’t even vote” or “I’m all set” (I still don’t know what that means).  At the library, people were less likely to traverse the entire parking lot just to avoid me.  It occurred to me that perhaps library patrons tend to be better educated and more civically engaged than the average citizen.  For the most part, they seemed to have a basic understanding of the nomination process and some were eager to learn about my candidate.  Another benefit was that they seemed to be in a more leisurely mindset.  It sure beats stopping people against their will while they are rushing to the grocery store to pick up some milk.

What I found puzzling about the census being there was that if my theory was correct, the library was probably a poor choice of location for their civic outreach.  If these people are indeed civically engaged, wasn’t the census preaching to the choir?  Why were they spending valuable time and untold amounts of taxpayer money when most people accepting their bag of goodies said they had all ready filled out the census and mailed it in?  I’m no marketing genius, but it seems to me that if they wanted to make a real difference, it would make sense to do outreach in neighborhoods where people were less likely to complete the census, yet would benefit most from the resulting public services.   Perhaps in the inner city and minority neighborhoods were census participation is notoriously low?  But what do I know.

At the end of the day they were packing up and a census worker was nearby filling up her trunk.  She asked if she could sign my signature sheet.  Unfortunately her residence was outside the district, but I appreciated her making the effort.  I could not help but notice her abundance of liberal bumper stickers with slogans like:  “All you need is love,” “Practice tolerance” and “Give peace a chance.”  I didn’t have the heart to tell her my candidate was a Republican.

CONSERVATIVE BUMPER STICKER SUGGESTIONS

On October 25th – The Ukrainians will vote for a new Political Leader – Building a United Ukraine

Ukrainians were to vote on January 17th 2010 for a new president. However the Ukrainian Parliament voted overwhelmingly on April 1st 2009, to keep the presidential elections on October 25 2009, three months ahead of the end of President Viktor Yushchenko’s first term of office.

Why did the parliament vote for this early election date? There are more than one answer to this. The front runners for president see a threat in a new rising candidate which will gain by more time, and they want to cut him short of this so he does not win to much votes. Another explanation is that the Ukrainian politicians up till now have not shown much strategic leadership and lack of crisis management, and this is not only limited to the top leaders in Ukraine, but the whole parliament.

Ukraine is in a need for a change in political leadership as the present leadership consisting of the president and prime minister does not provide the leadership Ukraine needs at this moment.
Ukraine present political crisis is a struggle between two heads of power and Ukraine’s future as a European Parliamentary Democracy. In addition there is an ambitious opposition with the party of regions leader, who will do his best to get into power, mostly because of personal ambitions. An opposition leader which has a scandal filled background in Ukrainian politics.

Razumkov Center performed a poll in the period from February 2th until March 5th 2009 revealed six potential presidential alternatives amongst the population, these were;

Viktor Yanukovych,
Yulia Tymoshenko,
Arseniy Yatseniuk,
Volodymyr Lytvyn,
Petro Symonenko, and
Viktor Yuschenko

Amongst these candidates there is only one real choice for a visionary leadership which will contribute to form the independent strong Ukraine which gives the population hopes for the future.
This candidate is the 34 year old economist and lawyer Arseniy Yatseniuk.
He is the candidate which has risen fastest in popularity in the last few months and gains terrain towards his opponents for every day towards the presidential election in January 2010. The other candidates have not demonstrated the ability to unite Ukraine either in power position, nor as opposition politicians. More of the same medicine will not work any longer for Ukraine. Like the international crisis, there is a need for new tools that will prevent Ukraine having the same problems over and over again.

ARSENIY YATSENIUK STANDS FOR BUILDING A NEW UNITED UKRAINE

Arseniy Yatseniuk can build a new sense of national unity that will bring relatively scandal free politics forward and he represent the next generation of a new post-partisan Ukrainian leadership.
He represents the transformational figure which emerges in the Ukrainian political landscape that captures the imagination and majority of Ukrainian voters towards the January 2010 national elections.
Arseniy Yatsenyuk is the one leader who is uniquely positioned to save Ukraine from itself. His meteoric rise is altering the political terrain of the upcoming elections in Ukraine.
Since Yatsenyuk has entered the race, he will have a challenging race towards presidency. But he can also campaign and spur optimism in Ukraine and bring hope back to the distressed population.

Ukraine is required to present balanced governmental budgets. The president must ensure that all politicians, regardless of fraction work together towards a common goal – saving Ukraine. In order to achieve this the new leader must be ready to take actions within the energy politics, especially Naftogas and its inability to present positive capital results as well as be able to open up its operations to be able to control its use of capital. Another issue the president needs to take care of is to handle the level of corruption in Ukraine.

Yushenko and Tymochenko have demonstrated lack of coherent leadership and ability to present a common political platform. They have therefore as I see it, disqualified themselves as candidates to be the needed future visionary political presidential leader of Ukraine.
The apparent lack of proper political craftsmanship in the formation of the Orange Coalition between Yushenko and Tymoshenko has lead to disagreement on virtually everything since they took the power in 2004.

The inability of the opposition leaders to present a real alternative to the present day leadership also disqualifies them from taking part in the new leadership of Ukraine. Today the major opposition party, party of regions is more occupied with criticize the existing government and president for not making a crisis plan and anti-crisis solutions, instead of cooperate with the leadership to create one.

BUILDING A UNITED UKRAINE WITH A VISIONARY MODERN LEADER

The new President to be elected in October 25th needs the trust by vast numbers of Ukrainians and not seen as part of the problem and not fatigued by a constant fighting within the political leader collegium’s of the President, Prime Minister and the chairman of Verkhovna Rada. The new Ukrainian leader must muster enough parliamentary seats and nationwide support to forge an effective coalition government and lead a genuine reform movement.

Yanukovych is facing a backlash in his party and polls for fumbling the last attempt to depose Timoshenko from the prime ministers office.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk can break out as a uniting force to save Ukraine.

The political fighting between Yushenko, Yanukovych and Tymoshenko demonstrate their inabilities in proper visionary political leadership on the cost of retaining personal powers.

Ukraine is sinking and Yatsenyuk’s poll numbers and popularity are rising.
As a former banker, Ukraine’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Speaker of the parliament, the 34 year-old Yatsenyuk is experienced and respected in Ukraine’s political arena. He is young, relatively scandal free and has the best chance to represent the next generation of a new post-partisan Ukrainian leadership.

Yatsenyuk represent the sober visionary leader who can impart a new sense of realism that implores Ukraine to clean up its own financial house.

He has charisma enough to inspire Ukrainians to take their destiny in their own hands and not look to Europe or Russia for salvation or blame them when things go wrong.

He must challenge the reign in Ukraine’s oligarchs who have ravaged the country in the same way that Russia’s oligarchs did during the transition from state ownership to free enterprise.

Yatsenyuk has the ability to craft a sensible forward-leaning Ukrainian energy policy that modernizes its infrastructure, energy policy reforms and restores its credibility in Europe.

Yatsenyuk articulate a vision that bridges the cultural and religious divide between Ukraine and Russian nationals.

He has demonstrated the capability to lead a parliament to get things done, and should therefore be able to govern a parliament with a significant numbers of members from the Tymoshenko Bloc and the Regions Party on his side.

The Ukrainian people are in a desperate search for new leadership as his political rival’s incessant infighting makes him a more attractive alternative.

POLITICAL STRATEGY – CHANGE UKRAINE THROUGH ITS CITIZENS

Yatsenyuk gives a clear and compelling vision of a new Ukraine, and a new theory of nation-building that departs with the failed attempts of the past.

Yatsenyuk has the ability to find alliances that will assist him in rise funding for his campaign for his newly formed party called Change Front Citizens Initiative.

Yatsenyuk will form a program for Ukraine’s resurrection.
His political strategy will be innovative, and be the consensus in the Ukrainian population as well as within the political circles. His party will present solutions that not only split the political difference between the major parties, but being radical pragmatists proposing solutions that benefit all Ukrainians struggling under severe economic conditions. He will not allow his party to become a soft centrist alternative which tries to be all things to all Ukrainians.

Yatsenyuk is seen as a political threat to established politicians like Yanukovych, and Tymoshenko, who have started attacking Yatsenyuk instead of ignoring him. This will provide an excellent development that provides him greater opportunities to highlight policy differences and new reforms, rather than engaging in personal smears.

Yatsenyuk can and will have to be tough in taking on his detractors; he cannot be equally as dirty.

Yatsenyuk stated recently: “I have ambitions as a politician – I want to change entire country and I do not want to change the National Bank”.

Yatsenyuk’s new organization the Change Front Citizens Initiative will build its own independent base of disaffected citizens and Ukraine’s youth that are anchored to his core vision. He will break off sections of Ukraine’s other major and minor parties on principle and policy to forge a winning coalition as the January 17 elections draw near.

Yatsenyuk’s path to victory will be the end of the political rancor between the Region’s Party and the Tymoshenko Bloc, and build a new sense of national unity.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk represents the change that will build the modern democratic Ukraine with the initiative of the Ukrainians themselves.
