Frances Lee on american government & presidential persuasion
Although the title of this article is The political scientist Donald Trump should read, Most of it talks about the two books written by Frances Lee and how what they say applies in Trump's case.

"Gone about it quietly?" Is that a joke? Do you think that there is a single fiber in Trump's bundle of flab which responds to anything by "going about it quietly"? This is a man who's made his hay by making noise. Non-stop. When Trump looks at the cards he has Those are his plays. That's it. "Get something done quietly" ain't one of them. Its almost comical that someone would suggest it. Its about as likely as Harvey Weinstein chaperoning your daughter's high school dance . . .

Given that I wrote the above in 2013 and recent events in the US, I'm wondering if I should put "Prophet" on my business cards.

Virginia Governor Ralph Northam refuses to quit over racism row
Virginia Governor Ralph Northam has denied he was in a racist photo that appeared in his 1984 student yearbook page after initially apologising for it.
Mr Northam, a Democrat, said he recognised that people would find this "hard to believe". He also admitted blackening his face to impersonate singer Michael Jackson at an event in the same year. Top US Democrats have called on him to resign. But he says he will stay on. The picture showed a man in blackface and another man in Ku Klux Klan robes.

I had a black friend who once offered to sell me "100 feet of pre-stretched n*gg*r hanging rope" back in the 1970s. PC folks would do well to lighten up. Michael Jackson was well on his way in the bleaching process in the mid-1980s and the stories about little boys were just starting to gain currency. We had a lot of jokes and racists were the butt of many of them. |

I feel that the vague nature in which parts of the Constitution are written is wise so that the document can remain somewhat flexible in changing times. Still, I suspect that if the founding fathers came back and saw what has transpired they might like to redraft a few sections to be more direct. |

On rare occasions I agree with Michael Moore. More often than not I disagree with him. This time he is truly batshit crazy:
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/mic...mocratic-party Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore declared U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the new leader of the Democratic Party, while urging political moderates to take a position because there “is no middle ground anymore.” “She is the leader. Everybody knows it. Everybody feels it,” Moore said of the freshman congresswoman from New York during a Friday interview on MSNBC. Moore said the age requirement to run for president - 35 - should be constitutionally amended so that Ocasio-Cortez could make a play for the White House. I'd vote for Pelosi before I would ever vote for that crazy bitch AOC. |

Do VEF members think that the current dem trend of really taxing the super-rich is a good idea?
Moore's latest love is solidly behind that.
