The Trump Clinton Tag Team.

-
If I were to ask you to name three national political figures that are more conniving than Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump you would be hard pressed to do do so. The three of them off the national stage are good friends. Bill and Hillary I believe attended Trump's wedding. Trump has been a big contributor to the Clinton Foundation. Hillary Clinton has said very little about Donald Trump's quest to become the GOP Presidential candidate. I find that odd. There is no one on the national scene who has coveted the presidency more than Hillary Clinton.

I have an image of the three of them sitting in a cocktail lounge somewhere in the United Arab Emirates  drinking some fine scotch scheming as to how to get Hillary elected President  of the United States.  What better way than to somehow make a mockery of the GOP. It would be hard to dispute that the GOP debates have substantially lowered the bar for running for President of this country.

I know some of you are thinking I also have been drinking too much scotch, but a much less expensive brand, and also at an abandoned hotel somewhere in Flint rather than the United Arab Emirates. At the same time, you have to agree that anything is possible in this election cycle and all three of them, Hillary, Bill and Donald have the gonads to try it.

China And The Five Baits

If you are under the age of 50 you should be concerned about China from an economic and global power standpoint. Some believe China is seeking peace with the rest of the world. Based on their long history, I am not convinced. For China long term is hundreds of years and for the United States it is the next election cycle. China's focus is always on the long term. Much of this post is drawn from a book,  On China , written by Henry Kissinger, the Secretary of State under President Nixon and a research paper of the National Intelligence Council titled  Global Trends 2030: Alternative Worlds . Whether the future will prove China's desire for peaceful co-existence depends on whether its middle class will sufficiently benefit from economic growth and not allow their leadership to throw it away by creating enemies with trading partners.  This requires the country becoming more democratic and less inclined to be a threat to the remainder of the world.  The jury is still looking

Keep Freedom on The Internet!

Net neutrality under attack:   Don't let Verizon and Google dictate the future of the Internet. Contact the FCC! This post reflects a comment received from Common Cause. It is time to stand up with them and keep the internet free . As the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) considers how to write the rules to protect freedom and openness on the Internet,   who should they turn to: consumers like you and me, or the oligopolistic telecommunications companies?   Verizon and Google announced this week that they have it all figured out when it comes to net neutrality.* They unveiled a policy framework that would give telecom companies the right to speed up or slow down certain kinds of content, and to block outright  applications or content on wireless networks.

Save Some Art or Save Detroit

  This is something I wrote back in 2014 while Detroit was struggling with a bankruptcy. I profess not to know the value of all the art held at the Detroit Institute of Art (DIA). Further, I do not know how much of the art is owned by the city of Detroit. I think we should find out and use it in the best way possible to save Detroit and its citizens. I  commend all the foundations and the state of Michigan who have stepped up with hundreds of millions of dollars in proposed contributions to save the DIA and the art work that it holds. Is the plan presented to the creditors concerning these donations and the leveraging of the art the best way to save Detroit and its citizens? Is saving the artwork more important than saving the city and its citizens? Stephen Henderson of the Detroit Free Press made a valid point with his editorial titled “ Detroit’s Rebirth Must Include More Than Downtown, Midtown “. Detroit will not succeed  if it does not cultivate a middle class and we cannot wait de
