We’ll need to pay a higher defence premium under Biden : Comments

By Graham Young, published 17/11/2020

In return for being one of the US's most reliable allies, Australia expects and hopes, that in the event of any serious threat to our borders, the US will come to our aid.

Few are aware that the Democratic Party chose former Vice President Joe Biden, a candidate with little personality, as a way of appealing to moderates, thus avoiding the frightening personalities of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.

The MSM narrative held that ‘steady’ Biden ensconced in his basement office would stay the course. Thus, the ‘Biden option’, which would make America moderate again, was born. Biden would bring floods of government money to an America in crisis. He assured voters that he would control the socialist hotheads that have taken over his party, and promised to take things leftward but slowly. He would carefully deliberate before packing the court or doing anything radical. Biden would moderate everything.

In the event of a Biden presidency, one could speculate:

If the Democrats lose the Senate in the January runoff elections in Georgia, a weak and ageing Biden will have an excuse to resist the radical Democrats. Biden can then be Biden and not a leftist puppet.

On the other hand, if the Democrats win the runoff Senate elections, the radical left would then have a blank cheque to push through its legislative agenda, including: amnesty and citizenship for between 16 to 29 million illegal immigrants; the Green New Deal; a climate hysteria revolution that upends the American way of life; and packing the Supreme Court..

Many moderate voters do not realize that Biden chose one of the most radically leftist senators as his vice president. There is nothing moderate about Kamala Harris. She will always favour the most radical position.

The ‘Biden option’ carries the real possibility that the 78-year-old president, who has shown signs of mental weakness and confusion, might not reach the end of his term. Thus, the radical vice president could well take the place of the “moderate” president. A communistic leader will then rule America following the Democrats’ Marxist platform.

That’s true, Raycom, but the only alternative was Donald Trump who was setting himself up for a second term as president, but this time, clearly as a dictator, having fired anyone who disagreed with him (which he continues to do) and replacing them with right-wing yes men.

The only choice the 153 million voters had was either “sleepy old Joe” or “Donald the dictator” (the pest or the cholera ?). The majority, 79.5 million (52%), chose “sleepy old Joe”.

“Sleepy old Joe” won by about 6 million votes, giving him 306 electoral college votes to “Donald the dictator’s” 232. “Sleepy old Joe” only needed 270 electoral college votes to win the election.

As you say, Raycom, “sleepy od Joe” has shown signs of mental weakness and confusion. That’s a bit worrying but “Donald the dictator” is notoriously known as a narcissistic megalomaniac and a pathological cheater and liar. It’s a toss-up as to which of the two is more worrying.

Like the majority of American voters, I’d put my money on “Donald the dictator”. In my books, he’d win that one hands down.

Happily, "Donald the dictator" has proved them right by declaring that the election was rigged and he won. If he had said the contrary we would have all had some very serious doubts.

Neither Bernie Sanders nor Elizabeth Warren frighten me. I think they both have the potential to make the US a most just society. Trump could possibly have successfully red-baited them so they might not have done as well as Biden.

In selecting Harris as vice-president Biden has selected a person with the potential to make the US a more just and caring society. Radical and socialist are scare words which frighten people in supporting the economic inequity and the endemic racism which exist in US society today.

When wealth is concentrated in a small proportion of the population and police can gun down unarmed blacks with impunity moderation is not called for. Justice is called for.

Answer 1- If they have red principles they are red.

Everyone's racist. Globalist Universalist principles don't work because blood is thicker than water- occasionally people from different cultures need to work together- but multiculturalism is a different paradigm. The US never got over the Civil War and are still fighting the same battles today. It's time that the sides had their own territory- as Israel was created to be a territory of Hebrew's. As PragerU's Candice Owens says the biggest issues in black society are 1. Missing fathers 2. Black on black murder 3. Male illiteracy. Miss Owens says- No other black society has done as well in any other part of the world than that of the US. She's happen to give a first class ticket to any black person that wants to renounce their US Citizenship and return to Africa.

Wealth is always concentrated in a small proportion of the population - no matter the society- empathy between people is related to their similarity- otherwise instinctively a threat.

If you talk about justice to a lawyer they will laugh at you.

The system is pretty screwed- it can be made better- it was better in the past in a sense. Socialist universalist globalist principles aren't going to do it. Because socialists take away peoples power to protect themselves then claim it's for their own good- the socialist communist universalist globalist academics are the ultimate in snake oil traders- the people are then asked for their trust- of course the people don't- currently there are many fearful people in the world due to universalist do gooders.

At least Gandhi despite his faults actually talked with the people he wanted to influence. A common failing is to try and solve a problem before understanding it
