Well, it so happens, it is Christmas day right now. My little family is out on another family gathering, and I am sitting here in the mess of paper from presents and in the light of my own little personal Menorah.
I am a Jew, but living in Denmark would make it a crime not to celebrate Christmas, since it is more of a pagan holiday than a Christian. On the other hand, with the interest I have had with the Christian church, it feels good to remember what Jesus Christ meant on this day. As it is a day of remembrance for these religions.
Add to this the day of the Muslim holiday of Eid. We just have it all.
I know that there is a lot of violence in Europe right now, and I have been talking a lot about tackling this with force, but with justice and humanity as well.
I believe, that the current track of awful crimes done by mainly muslims is a disgrace to all who believe in G-d.
At the end of the day, monotheism is about the family, about sharing, about finding each other in the embrace of spirit and love.
That is it. Everything that has come after that, is either a strengthening of this position or something more sinister.
I know that many muslims do not agree with the killings of innocent people that have happened in Iraq, the tearing down of old monuments, the destruction of not only Roman remains, but also ancient mosques.
I know that, and the world embracing caliphate, has to make enemies for those who do not want to be conquered. Especially vikings who are not used to be conquered, but on the other hand has conquered the rest of the world.
G-d is about unity and embrace. Division is materialism.
However, the problem is, that we, as people of G-d are prone to fight in the material world, to uphold the wisdom of G-d. Fighting for G-d however should be married to wisdom, otherwise materialism has swallowed you whole.
This is the constant balance of the fighters of light. Never to be sure on the right path, always praying, always reflecting on the moral issues, always trying to see the most peaceful path.
As the discussion of migration in Europe. The more people migrating into Europe, especially Muslims, the more conflict there will be.
The ethical consequence of this is not to call for more migration, because that will lead to more violence.
The moral answer would be to make space between the muslims and christians living in Europe.
The more you mix it up, the more violence you have.
At the same time, the islamists, who are mostly, too violent to be contained at all, should be fought.
That is why I say; do not go with the easy answer. Just think of the consequences of the trends. Not only today but also years ahead.
Europe is heading for a very dark time, due to our naivety. We should stop being naive, and look at the consequences of the communities that is struck by globalisation or whatever you call it.
Be wise.
G-d bless the wisdom of man, may it reach the wisdom of spirit in prayer. Merry Christmas, Eid, Hanuka and Jul.

I have just finished the book by Andrew Breibart called “Righteous indignation”. He is not much of a fan of mr. Alinsky, I will give him that.
I see his points, and, in many ways, I agree. I think he is one of the most visionary, antiegalitarian, pompous, honest, midleaning conservatives the US of A has ever produced. You must miss him.
He burned out his candle far too quickly.
What does he teach us? First of all, he teaches us, that the Frankfurterschool that you guys were as unlucky to get as you were, were basically hacks.
They had absolutely no loyalty to the US. After all, they were not that keen on the French Revolution (American Revolution) but much more keen on the Russian Revolution.
In fact, I think they gave a bad name to Jews in the US, not exactly the place we need to be unpopular.
Seen from a Danish perspective. It is quite clear to me, that they would never have made it so far in Europe, as they have done in the US.
Why? Because the intellectual level of Europe is higher than that in the US, and they would have been outmanoeuvred at an earlier time.
This I do not say to make americans feel sorry, but to point to the real problem that the Frankfurterschool poses for the US; it shows, that you seriously need to up your game when it comes to intellectualism.
You need to raise the bar.
Philosophy should be honest and show a better future. All European philosophy is like that, even Nazism, even though it was depraved, they still believed it to be a better system than Communism.
What you need to do, is let me make a philosophical underpinning under your own revolution.
It is quite common for philosophers to make constitutions, but you have a world-class constitution. The founding fathers made a good job of that. What you do need however, is a theoretical explanation of what the founding fathers thought about when they made things.
If you have this, you will be less prone to be bullied, and infiltrated.
The thing is, you have a much better Revolution than the Russian revolution. You have the American Revolution. You seem not the be in understanding what you really have. Usually revolutions will either work or disintegrate. The Russian revolution did not work, because the foundation was not all that well built. (Sorry Putin)
The American Revolution however still seems to pick up its revolutionaries from here and there. Right mr. Sanders?
And that is good, because only through the blood of the martyrs will a tree keep sprouting new leaves.
You have an amazing system, that you just need to open your eyes for. The humanistic, democratic society, that has never seen it’s like before. You need to keep it sound. That is what politics is about, and that is what mr. Breibart gave his life for.
He war a revolutionary, an American revolutionary.
He points us in the direction of what the US really is. This is not against mr. Alinsky. He was a democrat as well, but it is against critical theory.
The new generation should stop fighting their parents, and start fighting the tyrants around the globe. Especially the tyrants that want to subdue them. Like the islamists that brought down the twin towers, and is now moving into Europe.
There is an honest fight there, for all that it is worth for an American Revolutionary.
G-d bless the United States of America.
It is with immense sadness that I hear about the two incidents of terror these last days. First the attack on a Russian diplomat, then the horrendous attack on civilians in Germany.
This is what I have been talking about; an islamist terror attack duo right at the heart of both the East and the West.
This is what we have to learn from the incidents. This is not the East against the West. We are both targets. So we need to work together on this.
We are friends not enemies.
We also have to remind ourselves, that this enemy is relentless and lacks any kind of decency and morals. It does not accept normal rules of warfare, using civilians and diplomats as targets.
This is not a noble enemy we are facing, as we have earlier as with Saladin, this is an inhuman, decrepit, violent aggressor that uses any means to get to his goals; torture, killing of civilians. He will not have any borders when it comes to humanity. He will be stopped by nothing.
We should realise this, as we prepare for the onslaught on this enemy.
Especially the US is ready, is Europe?
Let us not forget what we are fighting for, and against. We are fighting for freedom and humane democracy, in the face of an inhuman enemy.
Let us be honest about this, and prepare for the worst. Because the worst we can imagine, will be a walk in the park compared to the reality that will come.
G-d bless the will to be vigilant and prepared.
Well, it seems to me, that Denmark is coming around. My good friends in the Danish Conservative Party, have promised me, that we are seeing things done.
So far, it has come around, that is good. But, we will see if they do as they say.
I however trust them. These are good people.
This leaves us with Norway, that still seems to be outpouring statefunded islamist propaganda, that we in the Scandinavia then can be bothered with.
Perhaps they will do a turn around as well, we will see.
However, good to see Denmark coming around, and that might as well save Denmark from more international humiliations.
G-d bless the will to be honest and sincere.
I think that what we should do now, after we lost the election, a part from trying to play a constructive role, whenever that is possible, is to use this opportunity to rearm ourselves with new ammunition.
How do we do that? By listening to the voices of our critics. In my mind, critics are a gift sent from heaven, they will teach you to do better, if you listen to what they are saying.
What Andrew Breibart is saying, is that we have been too stuck into a Frankfurterschool political correctness. As in blaming everybody who we disagree with as racists and so on.
Well, hands down. He is right. We have been too cocky on our own selfworth, and simple answers in the Frankfurterschool has not only made us stupid. It has also scared away all the workers.
I believe, that Barack and I have already worked quite a lot on that. Working on the business issues, production issues, issues of islamists, family, spirituality and so on. But instead of accepting things as they stand, we need to broaden the scope, and give ourselves good tools for a comeback.
Doesn’t that sound like a much better idea than trying to put pokes in the wheels of the Conservatives?
Political development has been too much of a mud fest, and too little about finding those satisfactory answers to the problems of our nation.
Anyway, you have me right? Have I ever let you down? No, have I made new ideas available for you? Yes, will I be loyal and a good friend, despite the sacrifice it will be for me? Yes.
So do not worry too much, we will pick up the mess and do something about it.
Just, stay honest, that is truly the criticism of Breibart, let us not abuse the power we have, but be good and truly supportive.
G-d bless the will to do good.
When I started my political/intellectual career many years ago, I was in a fearsome rebellion against the oppression of the liberal media. I was in the vanguard of the internet revolution and a pioneer in new media.
I raged against the machine.
Now, I have realised, after reading the book of Andrew Breibart; Righteous Indignation, that the entire background of mr. Trump, is precisely the same.
I remember, when I first realised, that the main stream media was trying to picture the reality in a way, that was wrong.
It was at the same time, as the iconic movie “Matrix” was released. You had this feeling, that you could either choose the red, or that blue pill. Which one is for you Nemo?
The allegory makes sense now; it was about going on the internet, and realising, that there is a whole other story out there, than the Liberal media wants it to be.
After some time, I hooked up with mr. Obama. He is, himself, a rebel of sorts, and he did not buy the whole oppression of the conservatives idea. He wanted to cooperate, and work with the Conservatives from the start. You can see it in his hand shake with mr. Trump. Mr. Obama is not a divisive character. He is an honest and gracious person.
So by taking me in the innermost workings of the liberal party, he took a rebel and made him an architect. Wrap your head around that for a second.
In Matrix, the name of the city that Nemo reaches is Zion. The vessel is called Nebuchadnezzar.
Zion being zionism, that Israel. Nebuchadnezzar being Law and justice. Since king Nebuchadnezzar was the inventor of the law.
With the work, I have done for mr. Obama, I have, in a sense been accepted and infused into the machine. I have become a part of it, in a positive sense.
The internet revolution has become a part of the system.
We should make a choice now, in the Liberal camp. Do we start enforcing more rules on media, or do we open up?
I say, make an open world. As Niels Bohr taught us. We should not start clamping down on ideas we do not like.
After all, we have the best ideas, even Trump is following us, so why should we.
And, we are not mr. Smiths, and “the machine” or “the Matrix”, we are honest, law abiding, sincere Alinskyietes who are fighting for a more equal and democratic world.
That is the core, and that is strong enough for us to uphold the power that we deserve.
G-d bless the will to be honest, and open.
It is a kind of strange, so many years since I started at SIAD, and finally we are at the end of the station in terms of the political fight. I won, hands down, no one forgotten, all remembered all honoured, I won.
The strange thing about is however, I have none to celebrate with. I am alone, all my friends have fallen along the way, and I am the only one left.
As Lot when he looked down to Sodom and Gommorah, he knew that he was the only one who had the stamina to keep the perspective.
Except this time G-d will not punish us, he will redeem us.
Now, all that there is left of this fight, is for me to get all the laurels, the recognition, the praise.
But right now, as Trump moves into the White House, and he is picking up on my ideas, as the fight is moving to Europe, and the leftist media have lost their grip on me. I am all alone, there is none to call, those who once did answer, answers no more. Democracy has had its final hero, walking into the cave to save it. But on the way he lost all his palls. They are all gone, only one man back in the fight.
It is lonely here, but I did it for good, and with my and all my friends sacrifices, we have saved the West and the East. All the descendants of the vikings that once sailed out from Scandinavia. We have saved them, at the most difficult moment, we did it.
What comes now, is a fierce fight, and we can lose it, if we are not careful. But the tide has turned, and we have a very, very clear shot at redemption. That is; all the nations of Europe, Russia, the US, we are back as a world leading powerhouse.
And, in a rare boast, I did it.
I am so proud of that. And I am so proud of all those who were friends along the way. We did it!
We should be proud of that. The turn around of the West and the East.
The turn around, the turn around. We did it!
G-d bless the tenacity of the believers in democracy and spirit.

Well, it appears to me to, that most of my plans are working. I know, that the CIA is pretty critical towards the friendship between mr. Putin and mr. Trump. But why not try looking at it this way; it is an opener for a better relationship.
I know, that there are still some unsolved problems i Ukraine, and the two leaders should solve these problems, in fact I believe that this crisis is the first international test of mr. Trump. If he manages to solve this crisis, he will have done a great deal in a short time. He has the necessary political capital with mr. Putin, there are actually no doctrinal differences between the two, and there is a chance to solve the crisis.
What I believe however, is that we still need to have a ground level understanding of the problems we are facing. The crisis is still the same, two parts of Ukraine; Luhansk and Donetsk want to be a part of Russia. This is, in my opinion their own choice. As with Sevastopol and Krim, we need to hear the voice of the people. Otherwise this will be unfair. We should then, all of us, accept that verdict. Luhansk and Donetsk have already held an election, where they voted to stay with Russia. That is their choice in my opinion.
We however need to compensate Ukraine for the loss of territory. This we could do by giving them some lucrative business deals, help them rebuilding their country, send some of our leading intellectuals to help their school system, rebuild their armed forces, give them money to make a new start.
In this way they lose territory, but gain development.
I know that this is a difficult situation, with a lot of historical grievances, but the solution should be fair.
Not to mention, that we really could use the good people of Ukraine in the coming war against the Islamists in Europe, something they know a bit about.
This is how I would tackle it. If there are any better ideas out there, please let me hear.
G-d bless the peace we should find.
Well, it is time for another swing of the old humanistic/democratic warhorse at battle.
Once again do the old warrior face an inhuman opponent. Once again is it time to raise that flag of freedom. Let it unfurl in the wind, and stand guard at its side.
This time, it is not nazism or communism, it is islamism. The end foe of our benign and good faith. The opposite of Democracy, the opposite of humanism. A faith willing to tread upon those whom it dislikes with the foulest of methods.
After the Syrian/Iraqi war, the next theatre of war will be Europe, in this theatre there will be numerous allies, and a few opponents.
My take on it, would be to advance diplomatic players as soon as mr. Trump gets into office. Let ambassadors start either advancing good strategies or threats to the country.
I am absolutely certain, that with the right set of ambassadors, we can do this.
For the few potential adversaries, that is Norway and Denmark, we will have to flip them.
That should be the initial strategy. Contact the leaders of countries, and urge them to join the fray.
In Denmark, they are pretty stubborn, but the current PM mr. Lars Løkke Rasmussen can be swayed.
We have to see a widespread crackdown on all the persecution of pro democratic intellectuals in Denmark. That is Flemming Rose, Lars Hedegaard, me, Uwe Max Jensen and Morten Storm.
At the same time, pro islamist propaganda by the mainstream media, especially the BBC´s of Denmark and Norway, should be stopped immediately. No more mr. positive islamist, cute islamist girls on tv and the like. We need a crackdown on that as well.
When we have flipped the last remaining countries, we then need to make more elaborate strategies involving new tech. It seems to me, that DARPA has been focusing on the personal drone tech. Tech that will help our infantry a lot. This should be held in US military only, and kept under lid, so that no islamist will get a hand on it, at all.
This is on our tech edge in the guerilla fighting that may start.
This is it gentlemen. The fight is moving to another scenario, actually, I believe we are more or less ready. We can keep soldiers alive, and we will win!
G-d bless the will to fight another day, for Democracy!
Well, it seems to me, that the discussion on how and why we at the Democratic Party lost the election is still going on.
I think some of the analysis we have heard has been right on a more superficial level, but it has not discussed on a deeper level.
I mean, what has really happened in American politics in the last twenty some years?
I have become aware of mr. Andrew Breibart lately. Honestly I did not even know about his existence, the network of SIAD that I have been a part of was, is connected to Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer not Breibart.
But after mr. Trump has reached out to Steve Bannon. I have realised the importance of Breibart, and have consequently done some research on the issue.
He died, mysteriously five years ago. At the height of the antiblog hysteria. A lot of the people who started the new anti “Franfurterschool” anti “political correctness school” has died, especially the liberal/conservative. That is Pim Fortuyn in Holland, Breibart in the US, Theo van Gogh, Charlie Hebdo. Here in Denmark, it has been quite close as well. My organisation the Vilks Committee was attacked a few years ago, and I was just lucky not to be there when the islamist came in with their guns.
Nonetheless, Breibart, Pim Fortuyn and I have pushed a new agenda, that is fundamentally different from what we used to have, but at certain points not so different.
We have pushed a pro Israel policy, anti islamist, pro gay, pro anti racist, pro democratic, pro humanistic, pro religious, pro defense, pro equality.
So where we have been attacked for being the “alt-right” and so on, what we have really been is very much mid leaning, just taking the challenges that of now. That is islamist, declining economy, border chaos, an academic world that is becoming more and more superficial. At the end of the day, we are not extremist. We are actually midleaning.
The interesting thing is also, that whereas Breibart in the US has been a conservative movement, what Barack and I have done together has been democratic. So in a sense, the same doctrinal trends have gripped the center both right and left.
What I am saying is, that what we need to do in both camps actually, is to get back in the center.
Many people, believe that for instance Paul Alinsky was a fringe movement. I disagree on this. He had three points, as I see it. 1. Democracy. 2. The workers movement. 3. Minorities. In other words, he was a Social Democrat. Not a communist.
This is what we can build on. Change is not communist. It is actually much more American revolution than Russian (sorry mr. Putin). It is about democracy, humanism, and where he left us, we can pick up the pace again. Because he blasted a path for us there, that I believe we can follow. The strangeness of it, knowing that mr. Breibart had the same ideas. Speaking of ancient Egypt and so on. Mr. Breibart was a fan of the American revolution as well, I believe.
G-d bless the United States of America, may he live again.
To be a strong man can be difficult, I you have difficulty DIRECTING your strength.
As of old, what we say here in Scandinavia, where we have been trying to work on our viking strength. We say, that a strong man needs to direct his strength with wisdom.
If you are strong, and you pick up fights that are unwise, then your superior goals will not be attained.
Wisdom in relation to strength is to figure out when to fight, who to fight, and when you do it, you do it with a strategical aim in mind.
In that sense, politics is a bit like business. You see what you have, work with it, to enhance your overall business.
I am then not talking about diminishing your strength, what I am talking about is giving it the right DIRECTION.
G-d bless the wisdom of old.
We need to start discussing the strategy towards IS.
As of now, mr. Obama has done his job, cornered the bastards in Syria, and almost finished the job there. He will.
After that, they are about to swarm Europe.
In this situation, we are required to cooperate with the European powers.
This we have to be absolutely clear about. Some we will be friendly with, others not so friendly.
France is on our side completely. They fight for democracy, they have really felt the whip of the islamists over and over again, and we have a long tradition of fighting the same ideological fights. This fight against the islamists particularly. We need to cooperate with them,
Germany the same. Ms. Merkel has made a turn around on the fight against the islamists. And that will be a cooperation.
Strangely enough even Sweden appears to be on our side as well. They are really in trouble. But we need to cooperate with them, and see where that will get us.
There are however two countries that have not responded well to an islamist crackdown. Sadly my own country Denmark and Norway.
Recently Norwegian television, that is the state sponsored TV, has shown a despicable series of a young islamist being an ideal to young norwegians, and the young norwegians are buying it. It is called “Skam”, that is young norwegians should feel ashamed of not living up to islamist rules. Simple as that.
The same television series is now broadcasted by the Danish TV.
These kinds of obvious attempt of islamising the youth is disgusting, and should be stopped immediately.
In Denmark, there is plenty of talk, but no action.
We will see to which side Denmark turns, but it does not look good. I have repeated, on my Danish blog, the critical stance, but nothing appears to happen.
So we may start up with some pressure on the states, but have to realise that we may have to enter the country and finish of the islamist there, if the government refuses to do it themselves.
So we need a more detailed strategy, that looks at each country differently based on their allegiance to our democratic cause.
Some we can cooperate with, others not.
But to finish the job on IS. We need to push Europe.
G-d bless the willingness to fight for good.
One thing I have to get off my chest in regards to the UK election about the EU, is the problems that mr. Cameron and mr. Johnson has had. Well, before the election, I really liked them both. So much, that I gave it all in the election mr. Cameron won. Remember, I helped mr. Cameron win that election.
But after the EU election the two former friends, and that being a formidable couple, lost their friendship.
That was very, very unfortunate. Especially with friends that had been together for so long. Then mr. Cameron got so sore, that he destroyed the chances of mr. Johnsons bid for the Premier post. What a mess!
I believe, that is was right for mr. Johnson not to go after the PM post, and I truly hope he did it, to keep his friendship with mr. Cameron.
Well, let us start by recognising the tremendous good that mr. Cameron has done to Great Britain. He, singlehandedly made a huge turnaround for the Conservative party, and he rebuilt the British economy. However, most vital of all, he won the election for a united Great Britain. We are inclined to forget that in the aftermath of the EU election. He won his first election.
So, for good and bad. Mr. Cameron has changed the UK a lot.
What he did contribute with, was that conservatism married to a liberal perspective. As mr. Churchill, he was a little bit of both. That was his true strength.
Now, he is out for good, and mr. Johnson is still there feeling only a half man. But that is politics. You have friends, and you lose them again.
It is time for mr. Johnson to fulfil the promise of an illustrious career, and get going with the rebuilding of the British Empire.
That task is indeed Churchillian.
Nevertheless, he also needs to make friends with David again, if that is at all possible.
You can lose your friendship, but you can also gain it again, if you try.
But, mr. Johnson, it is time for you to fulfil your promise.
G-d bless the will to be and realise what you truly are.
I have not commented on UK politics since ms. May entered the fray. I believe, that this was wrong, it is just because the consequences of the election are so far reaching and difficult, that I suppose I have refrained from doing it.
Anyway, what is really the result of the election in the UK? It is, that the English Empire has reemerged.
It is as simple as that. Why? Because the natural companions of the UK, are all the former colonies of the empire. Especially the parts that are still seeing themselves as part british; Australia, New Zealand, the Falkland Islands and so on. That is a broad part of the globe still English. They speak English, they have a British mindset, they work as Englishmen. They even have the same darn humor!
The problem with this realisation however is, that it excludes a lot of the migrants that have recently settled in Great Britain. Especially the Muslim migrants.
They do not see themselves as a part of the British Empire, in fact, they hate it.
So, we have a conflict here.
Not doing anything about it however, will not get us anywhere. We will need to address the issues. The Brits are getting a bit sore, and mr. Farage is poking his head out again. We have to realise, that we have to fulfil our promises.
What are our promises? It is to get rid of all the migrants that are destroying community life in the rural parts of England.
Start there.
You need to realise, that all the crime, the drugs, the islamist gang rapes and so on, are not tolerated. You need to work on that.
We have to talk about repatriation of those newly arrived migrants, who are not in acceptance of rural English peace.
No more rapes, theft, abuse of the social system and so on.
At the same time, we need to weed out the infiltration of the bodies of the state. There are too many with islamist connections in the states and communal system. We just have to tackle that.
It will be difficult, but if not, mr Farage will put the boot on our behinds, and he will kick us out.
So we need to move.
G-d bless the willingness to do things right, with a humane decency.
It appears to me to, that we Liberals are in a bit of a predicament. People are feeling demoralised, and seem to have lost hope.
What really went wrong? First of all, we lost the votes of the workers. That is the first, second and third problem. I believe I did point to that fact over and over again. But ms. Clinton simply did not have the rapport with the workers. She is too far away in terms of politics and engagement.
So, we had the right strategy. We just did not win on it. Our candidate was too far away from the swing voters we needed to win.
This again gives us an idea about what we should do to win the next time; we need to work on a political platform that includes the workers.
We have been too engrossed in human rights, minority protection, global warming and so on. As a result, we lost the connection to our roots.
Don´t get me wrong, what I am saying is not that the minority problems are not important. But we have to get back into the middle of politics.
There is however the problem, that in order to reach out for the workers, we need a worker as candidate. Someone who can understand them. Gets their point of view and they feel are like them. Someone like mr. Biden.
I have the feeling, that we have not seen the last of mr. Biden, and I truly hope he has not given up. In fact, I know he has not given up.
For me, I have one very difficult task. Mr. Trump asked for my guidance, he will have it, because we need to stand together in these difficult times. I will not allow the country down by turning it into a mess of conflicts running left and right. We need to pull ourselves up by the roots of our respective hair, and get things going. We owe this to the Nation.
But at the same time, I will try to lift up the Democratic party, and prepare it for some of the Change that Barrack and I fought for.
This will be pretty difficult, but nonetheless possible, if I just try to do things right.
I have thought about what we may do, and I will be back with more.
Perhaps I will even enter the mainstream media with a book on it. We will see.
G-d bless the will to do good and right, in the face of difficulty.
Well, it seems to me, that all my foreign policy plans have, magically come into focus again.
Allow me to give an explanation.
In the first term of mr. Barrack Obamas presidency, mr. Obama and I worked together quite a lot. We worked on the Arab Spring, the relationship to Russia and other things.
At that time, my basic plan was to try to make a good relationship between the US and Russia, and get IS into focus.
That did work out in the beginning. Before Ukraine, the relationship between Russia and the US was actually really good. After Ukraine, we still kept chugging on, as we succeeded on making IS a target that kind of had the ok from all international players. Including most of the Muslim players in the Middle East.
That war is reaching a kind of milestone in Syria/Iraq, where they are nearly finished off.
So what is next?
There are two things, that I have tried to prepare the American military establishment for:
1. The fight with IS in Europe
2. The fight with China
First the fight with IS in Europe. It was pretty clear to me, that a showdown was looming in Europe. My priority was to make it a showdown. That would strengthen us, and not destroy us. With the current infiltration of most of our civic as well as security apparatus, needless to say, this a pretty tough fight coming up.
My strategy was to try to prepare the system with a philosophy that was straight and fair. I put up democracy against islamism.
This has worked for the betterment of our Western systems. In fact, it has strengthened the democratic faiths of most nations.
I did not know it when i started out on the strategy, but it pretty soon turned out, that the US really loved the ideas. After thinking about it, it was quite evident what it was all about; after all, democracy IS the core faith of the US. I just did not think about it, when I made the strategies.
Anyway, it got us into a fight between a humanistic/democratic faith against what we know as Islamic state.
The fighting is moving to Europe, and, quite fantastically, mr. Trump now urges European states to invest more in defence. Perfect! I really encourage that, when the s… hits the fan, perhaps we are prepared after all.
However, perhaps, the US generals should worry about the kind of fighting we are entering. The basic moral is clear, we ARE fighting for democracy, but the kind of war we are entering can be grim. I do however believe, that the Americans will support the fighting, they are ready to fight the IS, if it is done with as much care for the lives of the servicemen as at all possible.
Secondly the fight against China. This is the real fight. The fight against IS will be bloody, terrible, angstprovoking, horrible, but it is pretty easy to win it. We just have to get started, as we are.
The fight against China however, is quite another matter. If we do not make peace with Russia, we will lose. We cannot fight both Russia and China. If we only fight China, we have a good chance.
There were, however, one or rather two obstacles. The first being, that China has been good at spying on our military capabilities. To a point where they almost knew our secrets better than we did. That was brought to the table some years ago, and it has been worked on. I am not hundred percent sure, that we are ready for the fight, but I hope so. Otherwise we will just have to wait until we get a green light from the military officials.
So, this is what i think we should do it!.
1. We take down IS in Europe, saving Europe, and making the entire West stronger. It will take some time, but after a few years, we would have made some headway.
2. At the same time, we will tackle China, reenforce our military capabilities, and take home whatever American production that is still in China. In fact work with all our allies to isolate China.
That will be, more or less, eight years of work. Nonetheless, at the end of that, we will be back, and not only America, but all of the West, actually including Russia, we be strong again!
G-d bless the will to be cunning and strategic.
It seems to me, that an anti EU vawe is crashing the shores of the European union. But the fact of the matter is rather, that what people are voting against, is not really the EU. It is those who support the EU they do not like. They do not appreciate people who have been trying through manipulation and back door negotiations, to change the political makeup of Europe.
I mean, why should they. People look for honest, accountable leaders, who fight for them, and tries, their best to avoid corruption in their government.
The process around the EU build up has been made on unsound principles, and whenever the electorate was heard on the issues, they, quite openly, rejected the project.
So the political system should not be surprised. What has happened is really just the shift of the electorate from rebelling by votes directly connected to the EU. To take these grievances to the voting of the national parliaments.
If the elites cannot see this obvious connection, well, they should, honestly, find something else to make. It is very obvious.
I think the political establishment thought, that if it just made EU, it could, after it was built, make people like it.
Well, despite all the efforts done. It simply did not succeed. Mainly because all the decision the EU system has made, has been in direct opposition to the interest of the electorate. Like the decision to force Denmark to take migrants in, in direct opposition to 80% of the electorate. If you want to get unpopular, by all means, that is what you do.
As all other governmental entities or system, the EU system has, perhaps finally come to the realisation, that you can only survive if you have a reasonable support of the constituency. Without it, you will end up in the cemetery, with all the rest of political systems that has failed.
As always, what really destroys a doctrinal system, is the ethical ways of it. Like the KGB that finally destroyed the Soviet Union or the sexual machinations of the french aristocracy before the French revolution. The EU with its arrogance and unethical behaviour towards all who are in disagreement with them (my daughter can testify to that), is what ruins the EU.
What I do hope though, is that the system that ends the EU will be a good and civilised one, at least, that is what I have been working on.
G-d bless the will of the Europeans.
It is kind of contradictory to see the guy that you actually fought against, using your own ideas to benefit not only him, but also the rest of America.
Seriously, that saving the plant in Indianapolis, was just really good.
I have discussed this with myself a lot; how do you really keep the production of a nation inside the nation. I have been inspired a bit by Ayn Rand, whom my friend Lars Seier is really into. But just giving businesses high fives and medals is not really helping that much.
The taxbreak idea that mr. Obama had, seems to work a bit better in fact, a whole lot better.
It really just warms my heart to see those dogs of construction with their missing teeth and their hearts broken, if they had lost their jobs, be so happy.
I may not be a man of production myself, but I really do feel with these simple guys, trying to make ends meet, feed their little ones, putting a little something aside for old age.
These are real people, and they just got their jobs back. That is good politics in action. Seeing the tears in their eyes, and smiles on their faces, just makes all the hassle and all the sacrifice worth it. For all that is worth, well done mr. Trump. Please use my ideas more, if it puts smiles on faces like that. That is goodness in action.
G-d bless the will to do good, to those lowest in the hierarchy.

I keep thinking about Oxford. It kind of drags me towards it. Not the surface, not the jolly pubs in and around Oxford, but something deeper.
When I was in Oxford. I was so fortunate to join a symposium in the church of saint Marys. A beautiful little church at the heart of Oxford.
I believe it taught me something vital about Oxford. That Oxford, at the heart, is a tiny, beautiful, peaceful little church, with the humility of a country side parish.
This is truly amazing. I think. When I compare to my own school; Vallekilde. Vallekilde is forged as the hammer of Thor. That is the secret of my school. The secret of Oxford is the parish church.
But just besides the smallish church lies huge and impressive buildings. Buildings like the Camera and the bridge of sighs.
In these buildings, the feeling is not of simplicity and life, it is of grandioseness and emptiness.
This is the problem. The heart of Oxford is not the problem. It is indeed sound and alive. However, the larger structure, the structure of metaphysics is abandoned.
That is, the theoretical foundation under the great structures has been shut down, and no one is living in them anymore.
This is what I am trying to say, and I know that Oxford is trying to say as well. The heart is still living, but the buildings around it, need reform.
As in Cambridge, where mr. Hawkins is king. We in Oxford need to be leading some other intellectual area. That is metaphysics.
Yes, I know people will tell you, that is not possible, and metaphysics is dead and so on. Oxford will disagree. It lives, and with the resurrection of metaphysics, not ot only the Anglican church will have a rebirth, all religion will with it.
This is the scale, and the potential. And this is exactly why I so insistent on urging the intellectuals of Oxford to stay in the fight, and put some life in the greater structures of not only Oxford, but faith itself.
G-d bless the will of the believers.
We are finishing the final months of mr. Barrack Obamas presidency.
It was a blast! And I hope, that the world has become a better place. I know we lost the last election, but we did a good job nonetheless. A lot of the policies we launched is adopted by the subsequent conservative government, so they live on.
That must mean we did something right then?
Anyway, there are a lot of difficult problems coming up, that we need to chip into. Do not get depressed, if we just learn from our mistakes, and chug on, we will change everything.
What I am concerned with right now, is border control.
We need to make that, and we need to work on it, from a collaborative perspective.
Border control is really going to change the way the US is working, so we need to be constructive in this process, and try to work with the other side.
First of all, I think we should start thinking about border control from a rational and humane perspective. There is nothing wrong in having borders. What is wrong, is to have borders in order to differ on a racist basis. That was the problem of the borders of South Africa. They were racist borders. Then there is also a problem in having borders to keep people in the country as in Eastern Germany, where you were shot if you tried leaving the country with no visa.
So the question is, as I see it; why are we having borders? And what are we doing with them?
As I understand it, the main problem, right now, is migration crime.
A lot of the migrants that come to the US have no jobs and start stealing. That is off cause a legitimate concern.
A country is a system also. In the US, it is a Republic. If the core values of a Republic, that is the democratic process and law, is beginning to wear down, Houston we have a problem!
The basic problem with not having a border is that the security and protection of the citizens are put in jeopardy. The strong puts down the weak.
This is a core institutional task to remedy. If the law is broken, the Republic falls. That is not a viable option.
So, we need to do something about that. Since they are, honestly, not our problem. Mexico should deal with, since it is their citizens, not ours.
If Mexico is unwilling to take their own citizens back, we could use the Australian method, and send them to a camp where they will do no harm. A harsh solution, but that is where we are right now, unfortunately.
G-d bless the most humane solution is this very difficult situation.
Now, what we need right now is a revolution. We have discussed the Marxist revolution, that, honestly did not work. It is simply too shallow a construct. There are lot of good things in it, like public healthcare, but the construction itself is simply not working.
What we need is another revolution. That is the American revolution. The revolution where fierce freedom fighters stood up against tyranny for a fair and just world. The revolution where the humane man was first invented.
This revolution is really the true revolution, but a revolution that needs the blood of the young to go on working. We need to stand and fight for justice.
My point is; as Alinsky said, what really is the core of the Liberal revolution is Democracy.
That road will lead us to victory yet again. Our young people chose that, let us spur them on, let us ask them to join another day, another fight.
Who is the enemy? The enemy is the tyrant. As of now, mr. Trump seems to be accept his responsibility with a certain professional attitude, that is, he works inside the system. That is his right, breaking down the system is what we should be mindful of. He might just be ok after all.
Anyway, we have to find those tyrants, they are everywhere, right now in head chopping terrorists first and foremost. We need to bring the pain to them, as they have been putting fear in us.
We need to brighten up, put up our banner and fight for freedom!
G-d bless the United States of America.
It has been a while since the beginning of the American election, and some of the issues that are close to my heart have lacked the attention that it deserves. I am only one solitary Jew, what am I to do?
Anyway, the discussion of spirit has taken a leap in my own head. After reading quite a lot about the Danish physicist Niels Bohr, I realised a couple of things.
First of all, it appears to me to, that the metaphysical community has overlooked a development within physics, that actually plays the ball back to the metaphysicists.
When Niels Bohr started discussing quantum physics, what he really threw out of the door was empirical physicism. That is a debate on the material world that is always founded in evidence.
The reason is simple; on the level of the atoms, we cannot use hard evidence, because the scale is so small.
This brings us back to a classical method, where logic and argumentation based on what we do know is the method of progress.
I mean, Bohr had a lot of points, that he only theorised on, he could not prove them.
People seem to accept mr. Bohr, but they do not accept the metaphysics that uses the same method. That is nonsense.
Then I have also realised that we do not understand much of the world. What we do understand, we have put to good use, like the understanding of light, that has given us the radio, cellphones, x-ray and so on. And the understanding of electricity on par with magnetism, that has given us electric motors.
However, still we only scratch the surface of understanding these things. Take light for instance. Light is according to Bohr a particle – wave. In a strange way, we have tiny particles that behave like waves. Like sound waves.
Nevertheless, they are not embedded in any medium. Like sound waves are embedded in air.
This makes no sense. Light must be embedded in something, a medium we cannot see. Some talk about the ether, to me, it makes sense, we need to relive that discussion of the ether that light travels in. Maybe we just have not understood the way the ether is working?
This leads us on to the discussion of G-d. G-d is very much the same as the ether. That is in a medium we cannot sense. But is still there.
See my point? We still do not understand the way light works, and yet we say that something that is close to the understanding of G-d does not exist.
It does not make sense. It is really just the shortcomings of our own logical faculties that stop us.
As I see it, we need to step up in the religious/metaphysical community, right NOW. I must say. I am a bit disappointed about the fact that not one religious community has stepped forward and is ready to fight for G-d. You need to step up. We need to fight for the existence of G-d, and we move now. This is what religion is about, remember?
Then there is some other thing that strikes me, as lacking in the discussion of the physicists.
Anaxagoras, talks a lot about centrifugal power. He highlights the fact, that centrifugal power is obviously prevalent everywhere in the universe. Just look at our earth. It is round, because of centrifugal power. Our world turns around, and hence matter is pushed from the core to the fringes. This is counterbalanced by the power of gravity, that keeps matter assembled.
Two natural powers are working in unison.
You can see the same phenomenon in the galaxies. That is also held together like at a spinning top. It has a centrifugal power hub, and is held together by gravity, making the beautiful spinning motions.
If physicists had centrifugal power at the center of attention as Anaxagoras, a lot of problems would have been solved already. Like the problem of saving energy. We use a lot of rare metals to make whole cities of batteries. Why not use the power of a centrifugal station? We could make a mill with at core of matter that turned around and thereby preserved energy. Sped up by wind power, slowed down when tapped of energy.
There are also several other things that seem strange to me in physics. One thing that does not make sense is the theory, that neutrons and protons are circling a centre, thereby making an atom a specific atom. Gravity does not work on the smallness of the scale we are talking about. Gravity is a natural power that needs a lot of mass to work.
We have to rethink that level of physics. Somethings are not right in the theories of Bohr. He came a long way, but there must be another way it truly works.
Nonetheless, this is my take of metaphysics, at this point of my theoretical discussion. I believe, that G-d is in an ether that surrounds the earth. It is in a medium we cannot see or sense in any way. We can just conclude it is there.
What we know is, that it is around the earth, we do not know that is anywhere else, so far. Because we have not discovered life anywhere else in the universe.
So the spiritual ether can be either only here on earth, typically surrounding earthlike planets, or everywhere in the universe.
What we need to discuss is; how does it work, and consequently, can we prove it further?
G-d bless the willingness to fight for G-d, come on clerics and other, step up, we have to have a comeback.
Well, it seems to me, that mr. Trump has defied all expectations and is actually making a success of trying to find a balanced team to tackle the problems we face.
Yes, there is mr. Bannon, but at the same time there is a mr. Romney. That is trying to reach balance. Well done mr. Trump.
The demonstrations against mr. Trump is also on the waning. That is good as well. We need to understand, that even though we did not like the fact that mr. Trump won, this is still the way democracy works.
At the good side, we now have defused a situation where a lot of Americans felt that they were not heard. Now they are heard, and we can go on with being a democracy.
If mr. Trump succeeds in finding a balanced way of governing. Things may still be good.
So, instead of fighting mr. Trump, let us make sure, that he is given the opportunity to tackle those problems the nation has.
Do it with tough but humane approach, and democracy will have shown its resilience.
G-d bless the democratic state.
Well, we are a bit over a week into the transition period of mr. Trump. The signs are good, mr. Trump seems to have grown politically in the election process, and we might just get something positive out of this, after all.
Let me clear about one thing; I think we should think about ourselves first and foremost. We need to build a better party. Secondly however, the nation is in such a crisis, that we need to examine the need of the nation and not on our own needs only. We need to cooperate, and find a way out of this mess.
One thing that is discussed right now, is the repatriation of all the illegal migrants in the south.
Well, this is really dangerous water to swim in political terms, so I won’t take any sides in this. Just remind people, that this is an issue we need to solve had it been a democratic or a republican president. It is getting out of hand. The crime rate is already too high, and unemployment is getting out of hand.
What can we do? Well first of all, let us just be clear about one thing. Having a border is a natural thing. Not having a border is the unnatural thing. A nation needs a border to control its territory. A border can be many different things. It can be an ideological border, a cultural border, and even in some case a raceborder.
I am not arguing for anything of the above, just pointing out the obvious.
What is the United States of America? It is a Republic. That is, it is a democratic, humanistic, civil construction with certain values and ideological principles to guide it. It is what is, simply written, in the National Anthem, constitution, the words of the founding fathers and so on. “Give me liberty or give me death”, as they said.
What defines a citizen in a Republic? According to Aristotle, one of the main philosophers behind a democratic construct, it is defined by two things. 1. The adherence to the law. 2. The adherence to the democratic process.
In other words, if you hate democracy, and wishes to follow another law than the republican, you are no longer a citizen.
Aristotle continues. If a polis (at the time of Aristotle they had city states not nations) needs new citizens, it should do so with the interest of the polis in mind. Usually it is because the city lacks new citizens.
These are the basic rules of citizen control.
Now there is such a thing as identity, as was the point of the British Brexit discussion. Identity is much broader than the discussion on citizenship, and this can open up for some additional demands for a citizenship. What you put into this box, is very different.
But these are the basic rules you can use in your discussion.
I do, however recommend, that we handle this crisis in a humane way. We are talking about people, and they are not allowed in the country if they break the law (rule number one of Aristotle) but we still need to treat them with dignity.
G-d bless the willingness to do the right thing, in a difficult situation.
Well, now that the election is done, and the soul searching begins. Please let us do one thing, as Alinsky says; we live in a democracy. Violence is not the solution to our frustration. We need to start discussing what went wrong, and how do we make a comeback on a sound basis.
We have made a lot of progress, and we still have mr. Sanders and his movement.
Democracy is good in the way, that it will change the system if there is great resentment, but without violence.
Let us keep it that way.
We lost, because I made a lot of theory some years back, that now comes back and beats me!
That is ironic, imagine being beaten by a former self!
Since I was the one plotting a lot of the theoretical basis that Trump is running on now. Remember I started out as a right wing extremist, I can say, that there is absolutely nothing racist or antisemitic about the basis I made. There are some bad broken eggs in the right wing. There are some nazis, that I despise, but mostly the right wing are comprised of patriotic, justice seeking individuals. They, or that of me that is in that camp, basically tries to find serious solutions that are challenging the countries. This time mainly Islamic State. But it is not a racist basis.
So, if we please calm down and use the energy to look inwards, and be critical to ourselves instead of mr. Trump, that would be good.
It is not the case that I think that we should not be critical to Trump, we should, but not with violence. That is a mark of uncivilized behaviour, and we are still expected to be the epitome of civilization. How are we to strive for democracy, if we do not accept it ourselves?
So please, take it easy. We lost, that is how politics works, we will get on our feet again.
G-d bless the will to accept defeat.
Ok, I believe people, especially people in the mainstream media are scratching their heads right now, asking themselves what the h… is happening.
It is a shift of paradigm as Kuhn defines it. The anomaly of the old paradigm has been prevalent for some time, and it was just a matter of time before it would happen.
Somehow, like an old time Martin Luther, I have a special role as both the one who started all this, and now a kind of friend of the old guard. That is special.
Anyway, old guard or new guard, one thing is important. We need to get our democracy out of this in a way that it will function afterwards. We are fighting for our freedom. If we end up being less free, it is pretty stupid.
The fight against the islamists are pretty well discussed and documented. That will lead Europe, at least, into a new era of enlightenment and peace. But what is happening in the States is different. The problem you guys have are different because the migrants are not muslim, but Mexican.
Anyway, I know this is a fierce fight, but alas, let us not forget that this is for freedom, the shining light at the top of the statue of liberty.
G-d bless the will to be free.
Listen, I know, that there are many people in the liberal camp that is devastated and sorry about the election. Me as well, I put a lot of effort into the election.
But that is how democracy works, and instead of feeling sorry for ourselves. I believe we should start discussing what went wrong. In other words learn from our mistakes.
One thing I believe we got wrong, was the putting up of a candidate that pointed to the past and not the future. I do like ms. Clinton, but hey the 68´hippies are gone. Now it is time for a new generation to take over.
How do we do that? First of all, we listen to the theories of old, and then we make new theories.
The foremost theorist of the liberal constituency, is Alinsky. He told us two things. Most importantly; we are a democracy, so we need to turn that democratic flame on. Secondly, we are a workers party. Now, he was also for minorities, but that is not our problem. We do that. What we do not do are the two first things, mainly democracy and union work. I mean, mr. Trump won all the union workers hands down.
What do we do to correct the situation?
We open our minds to the world. Instead of trying to make the world fit into our frame, we forget about our frame for second and try to understand the world without prejudice.
Allow me to give an example.
When I finished university, (I went to a university very much like Berkely) I travelled the world. I went to Brazil, the States, France, Germany, Italy, Bangladesh. I was a dancer, so I went a lot to Brazil to dance there.
In other words, I lived the normal liberal life, I even lived in a place called Vesterbro in Copenhagen, home to artists and other kinds of bearded hipsters.
Then, when I matured as a philosopher, I started thinking about my own country. At a certain time, I realised, that I did not even know it. I knew the city, but the countryside was unknown territory to me. That kind of struck me as a flaw in my own upbringing. So I decided to get to know it. As Walden I went off the beaten track, and made, friends with some of the most incarnated right wing hillbillies.
You know my friends in the city just did not understand me. They asked me; why on earth do you want to go there in the countryside, they are narrow minded and racist all of them.
Well, on the contrary, I found out, that was not true. In fact, it was the city folks that were narrow-minded and had a lot of prejudice. The country folks live close to the earth, and their perspective was often simple, but much more true.
My friend Anders, the right wing extremist, was an organic farmer, and he had a son with a palestinian woman. He loved his son, but hated islamic ideology. (We worked on Islam critic things together).
He knew a lot about Islam, and he was not prejudiced, but really knew things.
Now, what I am saying is this; it is time we get off the beaten track (Brazil, France, MOMA and cafe latte) and try to truly understand our own country. Or rather you need to get out of your comfort zone of Manhatten, and go out into the mountains and meet people, understand them, get their perspective.
They say that their way of life is dying. Well, that is a cry for help. That is why mr. Trump won, and that is what we need to deal with on a constructive basis.
In Denmark, we have the beautiful tradition of Folkenlightenment. The city folks go out to the countryside, and together we make theories. Like the andelsbevægelse, and the Højskole.
You need to make the same, work together, instead of against each other. Find out theories together, meet, share, be friends.
G-d bless the willingness to learn from our mistakes.
Right now it appears to me to, that what it is all about is shelving power to here and there. Listen, this is a mistake. What it should be about, is meeting the needs of the electorate. They do not care about the inner workings of the machinery. They abhor the inner workings of the machinery.
So you need to start your presidency with actually showing the electorate, that you care about them.
So, perhaps you can begin by travelling to one of those poor areas that voted for you. Listen to what they are saying, and start acting on the business thing.
Wealth is about production. At least, that is the idea of Adam Smith, combined with Ayn Rand. Businessmen are often not appreciated by the society, so they are unhappy with the situation and chose somewhere else to use their money.
You know how these people think. To make an economy run, you need to talk to the business society, and appreciate them. Make them feel, that you are their president. That you will look after their needs. Show people, that you are not that interested in the bureaucracy, but interested in them.
You need to be realistic about the bureaucracy. They are not important. You are important, because a president is much more than an administrator. He is the leader of not only the servants of the state, but all Americans.
Just a tip. Some of my ideas about Adam Smith have taken root in the UK, and ms. Theresa May is doing a lot of work with them. Mr. David Cameron used them as well, to a significant effect. So when you speak to ms. May, you could discuss these things together.
And then, you could discuss wall building with mr. Netanyahu.
You are the leader, but they are good friends and family. Help them, and they will help you.
G-d bless this difficult, difficult transition.
Barrack it is getting late, and the lamps are shutting down. The last days of your presidency are coming to an end. First of all. I just want to thank you for your interest in me. Only you could have done that. You took me in, when no one wanted me anymore. When I was lying on the floor, crying out for help. You listened. You did that, because we were both in serious trouble, and I suppose we needed each other. Thank you friend, and may all the work we have done help just every American and everybody else on this planet.
The bottom line is this; we did our job brilliantly. Nobody questions that. We stood up for all Americans. Hell, sometimes I even feel more American than Danish.
But, we did it. In this time of actually losing the election for ms. Clinton. It may seem a bit difficult to appreciate. Especially with all the chaos around us. But we did not lose the election, ms. Clinton did. People are not putting their backs to what we did, they liked what we did, but they simply did not have the faith in Clinton to truly do the same as what we did. This is not to scorn ms. Clinton, but just point to the fact, that we as a presidency and a philosopher succeeded.
There is just one problem. The situation is getting out of control. The political animosity is rife, and we need to help Donald Trump in his first decisive days. We agree on this. If we can get him up and running, he can pull this through, I hope.
Then there is legacy. Serious Barrack, the best thing you can do for your own legacy, is to provide me with some better means to continue. Right now, I am not in trouble anymore. The secret police have left me alone, finally, and my economic situation is not that bad anymore. Nevertheless, there is one thing that really hampers my reach; I cannot travel.
To help mr. Trump the best way possible. I need to go to Washington from time to time. One thing is to able to call me in case of an emergency, but another thing is to get to know me, and talk to me. People usually need a personal friendship.
If you want to maintain your legacy, you may want to provide me with some kind of way to travel to the US. Setup an account that makes me able to get to and from the US.
Well, let me say it this way. If you want the country to stop from being destroyed from within, make the best possible situation for me. I am your only hope. I do not say this to be selfappreciating, but simply because that is how it is. I am your guardian, and that is a bit of a responsibility. I will however attempt to meet that responsibility. Due to the seriousness of the situation. I just need to be able to give it my very best shot. This is serious. We need to do whatever it takes.
But thank you friend. It has been a tremendous honour to work with you. I know that I have been difficult, but I hope you understand the difficulty of my situation.
G-d bless you and your beautiful family, may you all succeed.
Well, we are really in trouble. Mr. Trump appears to be working on a serious basis of his presidency. One thing, I just really like Mike Pence, he is the one card that truly may swing things around. He is honest, serious and just a good man. He is your best card Donald.
Secondly, the Republic itself is in deep, deep, deep trouble. The reasons are pretty clear; the lack of respect for authority. Here I think mostly about the lack of respect for the law is deeply troubling. Mr. Trump won, hands down. I fought for ms. Clinton. But I have never truly disliked the message of mr. Trump, and Trump himself seems to come around and are willing to work with me, so, in the interest of the Republic, I will be a good partner of his. There is more at stake than just liberal policies. It is the future of our Republic that is at stake.
This is not mr. Trumps fault, he is doing his best, but it is the frustration and conflict within the American constituency that is the problem.
I will give you my best tip. This comes from the best source on Democracy there is. When Athens, the birthplace of Democracy was in trouble, it had this amazing and brilliant thinker. A guy called Isocrates. A democracy in its crisis, as we stand in now was something the Athenians discussed quite a lot. Plato had his views, Aristotle his, and then there was Isocrates. The thing about Isocrates was, that he truly succeeded. His ideas were what led to Alexander the great, and vision of a panhellenic unity was his. He saved Hellas.
Now what did he say about the crisis of Democracy. He said, it is about the law. People do not comply with the law anymore. Plato said that everybody got to free, and was annoying to everybody. Even the animals seemed to get annoying.
This is the one that tool you have to fix things internally. Strengthen the law.
Here you have one good man; mr. Rudy Guiliano. He saved New York, with the proper care, he can dampen feelings in the whole country. Putting up a no nonsense policy towards all who break the law.
This he can do, and only him.
G-d bless the United States of America, and may she prevail in these challenging times.
When you think about the slogan “Make America great again”, you will, after a minute, have to think a little deeper on the slogan that somehow won the election.
Because what does that really mean? It means, that the rural area is not that keen on the current degradation of the Nation. Simple as that. It is hip these days to deconstruct and ridicule our national identity. Not only in the media, but especially in the liberal artistic elite.
For instance, I have a feud going with the local art museum here in Aalborg, because they use our flag as a burka. Not only that, they also put it up as a “white/misogynistic/pigsty sign, using pink (the colour of the skin of the pig) as the color of the flag. That is not cool. At the same time, they adore all that is muslim, to the extent that they have given us the opportunity to see an exhibition by a muslim from Pakistan with a lot of blood, and something about terror. Imagine that.
If that is the vibe of the cultural elite, no wonder people are getting a bit tired of them, who wouldn’t?
Making America great again, or, as in Denmark, making Danes be proud of their country again, is going against this kind of behaviour.
Why on earth are the liberal elites behaving like that? What is it, that really makes them disgrace what is theirs?
There is a long psychological analysis that could be given, but let us just refrain from that, and simply conclude, that the Liberal party that is so obviously unrespectful of our Nations basically deserve the criticism they get.
That does not mean, that all liberals are like that, I am not. Nevertheless, we must acknowledge, that many are.
Making America great again is about reversing this trend, and start taking pride in what it is that we are ourselves. Just because, seriously, it does not make any sense. We have so many things to be proud of. It is truly not the content of our nations that is the problem. The problem is truly all the artist that like defaming our flags.
G-d bless the will to be honest in the face of criticism.
Well, it seems to me, that what has happened in the US is a widespread movement, that not only has its roots in the US, but also here in Europe. It is a reawakening of European/American/Russian conservatism.
Coming from Denmark, being conservative is a bit like being an ugly duckling. At least, that is how I am treated in Denmark, you probably know the story of H.C. Andersen. Reviled, but people is in awe because, in reality I am not a duckling, I am a swan.
However, this is not about me, it is about our future, and the future of our children. How will they fare? How will they even have a future?
This question is only answered. If we truly shed all our prejudice, and try to look at things from anew.
What is happening?
What is happening, is change, true change. In fact, I will start with a capital letter Change.
What did Barack really do to us? Well, I have reflected a bit on that the last few days, after mr. Trump was elected. I mean, look at myself. I am a conservative, a liberal conservative, but a conservative. I believe, in my nation, in fact in all nations. I believe in family. I am a devout religious man, and I am loyal to my friends. I have fought for my country, and risked my life for it.
Yet, I have been best friends with Barack Obama.
Think about that for a second. I mean, Pim Fortyun, the Dutch politician who was one of the first to oppose Islam in the Netherlands together with the Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh was murdered in cold blood for his political stance. That was where i started. I have kept a low profile in all the years that I have been in politics, because I feared for my life. Some of friends were murdered, in the terror attack on the Vilks committee.
Yet, still, I believe that I have been a good friend to mr. Barrack Obama.
If you think about that, it is truly mind boggling. Why would a president of the greatest country on earth be a friend of a radical philosopher from Denmark?
Because mr. Barrack Obama wanted to build bridges. He wanted to be there for black Americans, but he also wanted to be there for white Americans. He was trying to build a bridge.
And I believe we have a shot on success on that bridge building. A lot of the political ideas that I have, that are truly radical conservative are already in place. Like the fight against IS and the rooting for a patriotic American business life. Barrack even went as far as trying to support families in a reach out to local communities.
So, in practise, there is a lot to do for mr. Trump, but there is also a lot he can build on. Everybody agrees on fighting IS everybody agrees on bringing back a patriotic American business life. Everything else in American business is for suckers right? You support your country as a businessman, otherwise you end up a sucker. At least, that is what i have learned here in Denmark. Mærsk still supports Denmark, even though it is highly out of fashion.
In a sense, I believe, that when we get things a bit away, and a bit more in perspective, I believe that we can see, that the Change that Barrack brought us, is what set the stage for a reconciliation.
G-d bless us all, and especially mr. Trump. Dont worry, we will get there, but it will be tough.

Ok, we need to come together and solve these urgent problems on a common ideological basis. Otherwise the partisanship will start, and then the gridlock, and then nothing can work.
First of all, what is really the most pressing problem; migration. In Europe, the same problems as in the US are prevalent. Except for the fact that the migrants are muslims, so there are some extra ideological differences between the Mexican migrates that make trouble in the US, and the muslim that make trouble in Europe. But the basic problem of both US and Europe is the same ones; we do not trumpet our own values, and we are much too lenient when it comes to admission to our countries. The problems especially in Europe, where terror is the direct effect of the happy hippie ideology is obvious to anybody, and everybody basically agree that we have to do something about it.
Mr. Trump won, ok? Because he had the balls to address the problems. We need to acknowledge that, and act, also us from the liberal camp to try to find solutions.
He wishes to build his wall, ok he can do that, if he does it in a civilised way, and with an eye to the values that we ALL stand for. That is the Republican values. Democracy, freedom of speech, humanism, the rule of law and freedom.
Making America great again is about identity politics. That is, enforcing the values of the Republic, and make shure everybody speaks English.
There are a few, who wish the US would be hispanic. That is a fault. The US is a Republic, and I believe, that you just have to accept that, or go back to Mexico.
We are required to push a Republican ideology not only in schools, but everywhere; in public offices, in law enforcement, in culture, in sports the valiant troops of democracy should walk again. This time not to bring Democracy to foreign countries, but the citizens of the United States of America. The revolution must start one time again. If you do not accept this revolution, well, then you are not American, and you are not a citizen.
My point is; we need to gather around a common ideology to tackle the migration problem in the US. Something we share, that will make us work together.
We have to realistic about this, we need to be, as mr. Netanyahu; tough. There are a lot of places in the south where Republicans and Mexicans are not in agreement. We should enforce the Republican point of view.
If we find that common ground, then I believe we should allow mr. Trump build that wall. He needs to deliver on his promises, and that is his first and foremost.
G-d bless the United States of American boldness.
Well, I have just seen the victory speech of mr. Trump. Let me clear about this, we need healing. I absolutely agree. We need to come together, work together, and get things done.
I admit, that I have supported ms. Clinton most of the time, and I am really sorry, that you did not succeed. We all fought a lot to get you elected, but we live in a democracy, that is how it works.
Together with Obama, I have laid a great many of the strategic lines of the last six years, so mr. Trump inherits some fights, and some good things as well. Like an economy that is thriving, despite a fierce and unfair competition from China. A fight against Islamic State that is moving into Europe, and a relationship to mr. Putin.
I have been quite clear about my belief in the relationship to mr. Putin, I like him, and I believe he is a good guy. I truly hope you two will get along. Maybe it will really lead to peace, and there is no doubt, with the rising problems with China. That would be good.
Anyway, let us all give mr. Trump the benefit of the doubt, and help him as much as we can. It is more than our own feelings of defeat that is at stake, it is truly the will of the people, and the demise of Western power.
In fact, I agree with mr. Trump on most issues, I just hope we can get along, and find solutions that will keep the system working as a true Republic, because that is my responsibility, as a guardian of Democracy, to see it through, and keep it working.
G-d bless you all, and I am sorry Hillary, you fought good, but things were just not flowing your way.
Well no one saw that coming. Everybody from the elite was backing Hillary Clinton, and yet she was defeated.
First of all, congratulations mr. Trump. I hope everything will shape up all right, but I do fear what is about to happen.
From Denmark, most of my friends actually supported you, but I did not, because I believe it will weaken the system itself.
However, after all, a vote is a vote, and I hope that it will end up positively.
What happened really? It was a vote for independence of viking voters. We are sick and tired of all the “tolerance” speaks, and wish to empower dominance.
The vikings have been used to rule the world for thousands of years, and are not willing to concede just because the elite think it is a good idea.
That is the bottom line. This also, effectively, means, that multiculturalism is over. The viking part, who still is most populous in many areas of the world has voted no.
How will this have an impact? Well if you see it as a “white” push back to African Americans, Muslims in general and so on. New fronts will open up. That is war.
Mr. Trump may not be the one to wield the instruments of war, but the voters want it done, so if not Trump will do it, they will find someone else. The drums of war are sounding.
This is, in a sense, good news for Europe, because we are facing the same threats, just a little more prescient. The migration into Europe, is now out of control, and the vikings are at a warpath.
War is terrible, but it is also just how human nature works.
Odin, war father is at play.
G-d bless the United States of America, and may we win some kind of peace at the end of this major war we are entering.
There is just one day to the election, and that is close. We are finishing an election that is extremely dangerous not only the US, but for the entire world. If US falls as a beacon for Democracy and human rights, the lid has fallen off, and a lot of very nasty ideologies will pop up. Not only in the US, but everywhere in the world. Leading by example has one good thing in it; it is free. Leading by force is costly in all areas imaginable.
Therefor, we need to realise one thing. Whoever wins the election needs to address the charges the rebellic electorate is posing. Not only what they are saying, but also the deeper structures of the problems, which is really where the problems start in the beginning.
What is the problem? The problem is a distance between the needs of the people and the leaders. We, often end up in our own little ivory tower, and the theories we make are not really connected to the challenges people feel.
An example; we carry on discussing the gender inequality, while people can’t make a living. I mean, what is really important, that you can eat, or you have equality between the genders?
The first is important. It is a bit like Marie Antionette saying; why don’t they eat cakes when they can’t eat bread?
Therefor what we need to do, after the election, is start listening. Not just a little, but truly listen to what the electorate, and then find solutions that meet their demands. We need to meet them with a clean slate. Shed all the discussions we know, and try and understand what they are saying. We should stop putting their claims into prejudiced casts, and just find a solution to their trouble, based on a sound democratic/humanistic base.
Otherwise we end up in a revolution, and after the revolution they will say; they asked us to eat cakes when we had no bread.
G-d bless the Democratic Constitution of the United States of America.
Now my good friend mr. Barrack Obama is right on one point. This election is truly a test of American Democracy. Will it fall? It might just fall, if mr. Trump is elected and he really does all the things he threatens to do. Here I am not talking about the wall and so on, but on all the things he will do with the system itself.
It is, I am sorry Donald, I know you do not see it that way, but you are a reflection of the problems American democracy is in. But it is a problem, that the electorate is so desperate it will elect a man that threatens to tear the whole thing down.
This is why I think it is of vital importance that we in the Democratic camp really understand what the rebel voices are saying, and meet them halfway, get over the crisis that the American democracy is in.
We can only do it, if we solve some of the problems they are facing. Like unemployment, national self-assurance, migration and so on.
We should be quite clear about the challenges we meet. If we do not meet the desperate Republican voters halfway, they will tear the entire union apart. It is like that.
So, this is really one of those desperate times, but fortunately, we know what is at stake, and we can do a turn around. Be proud of what American Democracy is, and be humane.
We can do it, it is one of those trying times, but if we are able to get over this crisis, the foundation will be that much stronger.
We need to hear what they are saying, and meet them halfway, after the election.
G-d bless the American Democratic Constitution.
Now, Hillary, you need to get out of your comfort zone and fight for something you believe in. That is really what is missing in this election; you!
We need to see you shedding those teacher glasses and start fighting for something you really believe in, NOW!
I understand, that this is a audacious demand, but we need you to step up, shed all your thinking, and just fight.
Fight for what you believe in, what you see as important.
One thing that I would recommend, is the fight against IS.
We got a hit by FBI, they may have done intentionally, maybe not. But they did it. What they did, was sowing doubt on our ability to fight the islamist. By pointing to Huma Abedin.
We need to turn that around, and tell everybody, that this is a fight between an evil empire, against our democratic ways.
This is a fight between good and evil, and we will prevail.
You need to step that message up, to counter the hit we got from the FBI.
Please Hillary, there is so little time left, and we need to make an impression. It is yours to make.
G-d bless you, and may you find the will to fight for what you believe in.
What is it really to be honest? I have a lot of flaws, but I truly believe, that dishonesty is not one of them. After the Mohammad Cartoon crisis, where freedom of speech was discussed, we did really in Denmark discuss honesty a lot. Because honesty is the basis for freedom of speech.
It works like this; to hide something, you use lies. But if you have nothing to hide, you do not need lies.
So people judge you by your candour. If you are honest, you have less to hide.
Nobody likes anybody who lies, but they will almost always forgive a truthsayer. Off cause, there are somethings that are too bad to be forgiven for. But mostly the dishonesty you have, is human nature.
But it is a very good thing to always try to be honest, because it pushes you to be at better person.
When you do something, that other people find dishonest, you, most of the time, have a good reason. So if someone criticises you, be honest about your reasons to do as you did.
Then you can actually discuss the moral content of your actions. Some find it right, others dislike it.
Nobody is perfect however, we are all sinners to some degree. But most of us try to make something better out of what have of life.
So, to be really honest, you have to be strong and face the criticism of other people. But the funny thing is often, that if you are honest, people usually forgive you for your mistakes, because they know that you have faced what you have done wrong, and will try to be better at another time.
Not being honest, is much worse, because then people start digging in the problems you have, and seek for mistakes.
G-d bless the will and ability to be honest.
Ok, there is one week to go. This is devastating in some areas, and pretty cool in other. I do believe, that both candidates have had their share of scandal, and nobody can say that it is rigged. Mr. Trump got his fair share, and ms. Clinton got hers.
So, we are even.
What I do believe is important, is that what we need to do, is to come clean. We have to be honest in this election, and in general.
I know that the easiest thing to be done is to cheat, but, you know, in politics cheating is like peeing in your pants. It warms at the moment, but after some time it gets colder.
Nevertheless, still, things are not as bad as they seem.
On a political level, actually both candidates are pretty much in agreement on what is important; beating IS, working with the economy.
But there are of cause things that are different, mainly in what parts of the constituency are important, of cause.
I believe, we have had a dirty campaign, but I do not believe it is as dirty as some think. I still believe both candidates have brought a lot to the table, and we will see what will be the outcome after the election.
One thing is sure however, we need to reach out after the election, whoever wins, we need a Netanyahu like capacity for someone who understand both right and left. I think that is really where the good course lies.
G-d bless the United States of America.
The case that the FBI is throwing against ms. Hillary Clinton involves ms. Huma Abedin. Who is she? She is, obviously a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, since she is family with some of the top dogs of that organisation, and she is an agent.
How do I conclude this? Because I have been living, as many other people who are influential, with agents close to my life for many, many years, so I have a lot of experience with this.
It works like this; a person, that reflects your own interests and person shows up, and is willing to do almost anything to please you. He or she will become your friend, and help you beyond what is natural. You are not required to care much about your own actions towards this person. They are always there.
The problem is, it is fake. She or he does not exist because they like you, but to influence you in some way. One of my other friends had an agent in his life. This agent kept taking him to pubs to make him drink more and more. Basically he was not my friends friend, but used his friendship to wear my friend down.
Abedin seems to be the same, she goes to lengths normally not attributed to a muslim woman, like marrying Anthony Weiner, even though he is not a paragon of virtue.
The deeper story of this, is, of course, that she represents the Muslim Brotherhood. On this issue Barack and I have disagreed to some degree. Originally he supported Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood president of Egypt, and, I supported Al-Sisi. I supported Al-Sisi, because the Muslim Brotherhood is a problematic organization spreading islamism around the globe.
After the Egyptian revolution, the Sunnis have worked themselves closer to Israel, and agree on not liking IS. Especially Egypt. So we have made more unity amongst our allies in the Middle East. Even Turkey now agrees on this.
As time has gone by, the Muslim Brotherhood has lost its sway, and is mostly now confined to London, where is lives a poor life. That is, it is no longer a major player.
This is reflected in the tragedy of ms. Abedin, that was divorced to Weiner. (Who wouldn’t)
So the value of Abedin as an ally, is naught. She is not a friend, she is, most probably, just an agent of a small organisation.
The problem is. She is a symbol of corruption. FBI are scared about this, and so they act. They do not act with an all embracing fanfare, but they are putting up a flag.
So, instead of attacking FBI, they are basically just doing their job, we should acknowledge their flagging, and just put up some barriers between Abedin and the inner circle of the friends of Clinton.
Good luck, but you need to act fast, we are losing steam on this issue, at at critical point of our contest drive.
G-d bless the will to get honest about our problems.
Ok let us be cool about the FBI accusations. Let us have a sound and serious look upon the problem. First of all; no ACTUAL accusation has been forwarded, just some airy negative comments. That is all.
The true problem is not the accusations, it is the target of the accusations; Huma Abedin and her former husband Weiner. Bad apples both of them. Weiner because he is VERY negative in his ways with women; Trump like actually. Abedin because everybody knows that she is a meme of the Muslim Brotherhood.
These two persons are not sufficiently ethically based to be a part of the Democratic presidential run.
Why? Because we have run on an ethical basis against Trump. We fight for womens rights, and against the Islamic State.
This leaves no room for a child adulterer as Weiner, and a Muslim Brotherhood agent as Abedin.
So, if we defend ourselves, we, at the same time, defend some undefendable individuals.
We need to let them go, and the fuss will all be over. And it needs to be done fast, because we are very close to the election day.
We are also required to learn from it. There is no room for failure in our government. We have to do as we say. We simply cannot attack Trump for a sexually denigrating perspective and then, at the same time, defend people who do the same in our own camp.
I am sorry, but as the election has developed, it has, for good and worse, been more and more ethical.
We need to realise this and evolve ourselves.
G-d bless the willingness to understand our own mistakes, and be sorry when we do them.
Ok, I must write about something else than the American election. It is off cause of a vital importance, but there are other things as well.
Like the discussion on G-d. I am reading about the great physician Niels Bohr, another Dane. He was one of those few people who were pushing human knowledge on.
I have been discussing the relationship between spirit and physics, arguing, that G-d is as Anaxagoras says; a natural power that is in between matter, in the ether, so to say. Birth is the gateway between this dimension of the ether, and the material world.
This discussion is, in its essence spiritual and physical, that is metaphysical. “Besides the physical” as it is what “meta” means.
I believe that the teological community has done a great disservice in not following the physical discussion. Because the physicians actually disagree in these matters. Some believe, that there is a G-d, like Planck, who realised that energy has a smallest unit, thereby naming the “Planck”s constant.
Instead of trying to fight the physical community, we should just be a part of the discussion. I had an angle on the world famous Niels Bohr institute some years ago, where I met a leading physician there, but due to all the chaos in my life, all the persecution and so on, I could not follow up on this lead. I hope to continue this line of my thought. Because if I can contribute with a scientifically respected line of thought that actually uses the idea of G-d as a proven and well understood idea, we could, potentially be back in the metaphysical community.
That is why, I ask you, all of you who are interested in these ideas, to show support, and help me in my quest. Give me some help, and maybe, I can do this.
G-d bless the will to fight for G-d.
It seems to me, that ms. Clinton is in the lead. Still, we are not here yet, but the signs are good. Anyway, if we win, I think we should discuss, already now, what we should do to foreign policy matters.
First of all, I believe, that the American people are not ready for another full scale war, and if they are, it will not be with the Russians, it will be with the Islamists.
Why? Because the Islamists with their continous terror attacks, not only on American soil, but everywhere in the world, is what is felt as the greatest threat. Some geopolitical analysts will point to the fact that China has a much larger potential for agression, but they have not done anything on American soil yet. The Islamists have, and that is a lot.
There is also a special bonding and history between Europe and the US. Most of American culture comes from Europe, and there is still a very close relationship between the US and Europe, especially Northern Europe. You are our friends and family. That is how we see it.
So when islamists attack France, the UK, Denmark, Sweden, it is felt as an attack on a family member. It IS an attack on a family member.
As the Syrian war is settled, and IS looses its territory, they are going to swarm Europe. At least, that is what they are threatening, and they usually do as they say. We have som calm right now, because they are tied up in Mosul. But after they lose that piece of land, they are free to spread their terror everywhere, especially in Europe. They are not dumb, and they carry the torch of a religious war. So they are hard to turn around.
Anyway, as the confrontation picks up speed in Europe, there will be an increased voice for American intervention in Europe. This is not the first time Americans have been on the shores of Europe, fighting for liberty, and it will, probably, not be the last.
This however, will be a fight with the full consent of the people.
The bad thing is, off cause, that all wars are terrible. Wars should be avoided at all costs, but should be fought vigoursly, if there is nothing else to do.
The good thing about it, is the strategic implications. We are not stirring up another cold war, or getting enemies all around the world. Everybody agrees on taking on the islamists, even sunni muslims, the closest possible allies IS has. So, it will harden the international community around a strategy lead by the US.
G-d bless the US in its wise decisions towards war and peace.
I believe, that, at the end of the day, it is about one thing; passion. What is passion really? Passion is about believing in an idea so much, that you fight for it with a lot of energy.
Thing is, to be passionate about an idea, the idea you fight for, should be a good idea. Otherwise it is a little difficult to believe in it.
There are many good ideas, and then there are many bad ideas. But one thing is for certain. If you want people to fight for a good idea, you need to present them with an idea that is well proven and you know will work. That is why we like the classics, because in the classics we find proven ideas.
In the French revolution we fought a lot for some classical ideas; freedom of speech, justice of the law, enlightenment, human rights, democracy. The thing about these ideas are, that they work. They are time proven, quality ideas worth fighting for, worth the basis of a revolution.
Now I have come up with some ideas, some of them new, some of the classical, but all in a new clothing.
I promise you, that these ideas are, most of them well proven. And those ideas that are not well proven, are already working. Like the idea of focusing on production to boost the economy. It works.
At the end of the day, it is about faith. Faith in those basic ideas of our society that we treasure and love. Faith in the building blocks of society. Faith in the ideas.
Please hold this into your heart; it works. That shining city at the top of hill, is real. Those humanistic, enligthenment ideas, they are real, and they work. The American dream is still a dream attainable. The ideas are sound, all you need, is faith.
G-d bless the United States of America.
It is getting tighter, the television appearances are over, and it is down to the groundwork to work their magic.
This is why, we have to; organise, organise, organise. Work, from day to night, from night to day, work, work, work.
There should be no respite, no taking it easy, we need to do the job!
One thing I believe is pretty positive about this election is the fact that we have seemed to come together. The different arms of the party, and I believe, we should try and keep it that way. Let us build on what we have, and make it even stronger.
Mr. Sanders and the young, ms. Obama and the women, mr. Kerry and the hippies, mr. Biden and the workers, ms. Clinton and the just … well, normal people, right?
Let us come together in a vision of a more equal and free America, and vision where the lame will walk, the poor will not be abandoned and the rich will be satisfied but not handed all the power.
We can do that, and we will, so FORWARD! Let us do that revolution, lead all of us!
G-d bless the United States of America.
We are nearing the end of the election cycles. It seems to be an easy win. But until the end of the election cycle, it is still just a PROBABLE win. We have not won until election day.
When we fought with Barack Obama the last election, it seemed much closer, and yet we won. But in a sense that was good, because then we were fighting to the very end.
Let us learn from that, birds on the roof are not birds in the hand.
LET US FIGHT!
All OF US!
G-d bless the will to fight to the very end.
So, there are only three weeks before election day, and it seems a pretty easy win.
Let us have a look on why. First of all, because we did have a good support from the Liberal wing, this includes all the traditional supporters, a great part of the academia, a great part of the civil rights organizations, a great part of grassroots supporters.
Secondly, it was because mr. Trump had no idea about campaigning. He is good on television, but all the intricacies of voter segmentation, going across the aisle, being strategic, was not really a part of his strategy. As the skeletons started emerging out of the cupboard, he did not have the nerve or the cool to meet it with ease, but started ranting.
I am sorry, I never really disliked Trump all the way, but that is just not a thing to do if you want to be the leader of the free world. You need coolness and strength in your manners.
On the other side, ms. Clinton has really developed herself under the election, and seems to be moving with the tides. She has a new stance on the free market deals, I do believe that free markets are ok, but this was really not the idea of Bernie, so I understand the move, even though I hope it will not ruin our economy too much. And then she started getting back to her roots, I think that is really the most beautiful part of her development. She started thinking about that rural America, where people struggle to get going. That rapport is really what will win her the election. Because this is where the swing voters are. The ancient blue collar Democrats, who are scared by globalization, but still hold on to a worker identity. These voters are the key voters in this election.
Now these people are, at least a lot of them, REALLY angry on how things are progressing, and instead of alienating them. We should try and understand them, and help them. As in Detroit.
Globalization seems to be over, and people are hunkering down in the states they understand and makes sense to them, and we cannot change that. What we can do, is to try and ease that development, so that it does not end in a huge crash. Because they are truly angry, and we need to meet them in order to alleviate some of that pain, be it a right pain or a wrong pain.
We need to stop vilifying them, and start understanding their difficult situation.
G-d bless United States of America
When we get older, we start to forget about the initiation of our lives, we seem to forget what it was all about. I have grown up a poor boy, the first many years of my existence were, honestly, terrible. It gave me a lot of scars and a lot of experience about the bottom of society. But I have, singlehandedly fought my way out of the misery, and as of now, I do actually feel pretty ok. I have a little family, I have a beautiful wife, a place to stay, a job that is not too terrible, and an ongoing artistic career that a care a lot about. But I still worry about the secret police, will they try another blow, what will they do now, and so on.
Kierkegaard, the Danish philosopher, had this way of theorizing. He looked at his own life, and used his own experiences as a guiding light. This is much better than sitting somewhere in an ivory tower and theorizing about things that you know nothing about. It makes me a strange bird in the world of academics, but hey, even the academic life needs outsiders to give them new roads to travel down at. And to me, the greatest philosophers lived their own ideas out.
But what if you get too far away from that dark place you started out from, that river of misery, that train of broken dreams, because you actually get out of the trailer park. What then, how can you do something for those still in it. How can you actually contribute all Americans, Danes, Englishmen, Frenchmen, Germans and so on. You can do it with the Bruce Springsteen method.
I like Bruce Springsteen, and actually, I have thought about where he might have gone in this election cycle, he used to be out there on the trail together with the Democratic contender. Where is he.
Anyway, I will tell you about his method, that I once read about. Now, when he is worldfamous, and miles away from the dump he started out from, he has, sometimes, problems with what to write songs about. But then he goes into himself, and he starts remembering that dark place why he came from, and songs starts coming again. That river of misery.
Now, I know that mr. Trump has made an idiot out of himself, you cannot blame the media for pulling out stories of mistreating women. You should not mistreat women, period. But he had some of that Springsteen blues in him. He did go out and understood the misery of not getting a job, loosing your dreams and seeing everything fall apart around you. He has that blues, and that we can learn from him. Because, yes, he is a bad messenger, but his message is true.
G-d bless the United States of America, and may it rise to shine again.
Ok, it really, really shocks me to hear about all the accusations of rapist behaviour of mr. Trump. They truly seem to be true, and that is the end of that presidential campaign. You simply cannot beat that. Whatever ms. Clinton could have done or not, nothing beats that.
To go into a presidential campaign with that as a possible newsbreak is truly suicidal. The worst scandal in the story of the United States of America.
There is not much to say, other than he did say somethings that were right; like the problems at the border, the problems at the bottom of the industrial rungs.
But that does not excuse this behaviour. As ms. Obama, I am speechless. I thought it was just a hoax, stupid me.
G-d bless the dignity of the United States of America.
