Taking A Reality Check of Our Nation 2014 –Ray

http://reachmorenow.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/President_Prime_Minister_Admiral_General_Aladeen.jpg

I have often wondered what would happen if a madman or madwoman became president of the United States. Or what we would do in America if a devoted Socialist or Communist became president? What if America’s president wanted to throw away the United States Constitution and fully replace it with new laws of their own? What if our president no longer wanted America to be a shining beacon on a hill, but wanted to hand us over lock, stock, and barrel to the United Nations? What if one of our presidents took all our freedoms away? Would we simply allow him or her to continue in office to serve out their term and do whatever they wanted for at least four years or perhaps eight? And if not, how would our nation stop them from destroying our basic foundations while they are in office?

Taking A Reality Check of Our Nation 2014 –Ray


President Barack Hussein Obama proved at the very beginning of his candidacy in 2008 that we no longer care as a nation whether those running for the oval office have proof of their citizenship or mean what they say about transparency and so many other things. In fact, the place of President Obama’s birth and his birth certificate were quickly turned into a joke.


In spite of the fact that he had sat for twenty years under the tutelage of the man he called his “mentor” – Reverend Jeremiah Wright – who “damned” America not only of its past racial treatment but it’s present, we paid little attention to that. When Michelle Obama, who had also sat under Reverend Wright for all those years, said the only time she had ever felt proud of America was when her husband was nominated for president, we totally ignored that. Nor do we seem to mind that the president’s personal life is unknown to us other than from a few magazine articles and an occasional presidential news conference. Deals and threats he makes behind closed doors result in Obamacare or in amnesty for illegals.


Most Americans never even think of holding a president’s feet to the fire until he keeps his (or maybe her) promises. We have stopped writing letters or phoning the presidential hotline or congressional hotline because we think we don’t matter in a nation as big as our own. Most Americans don’t even vote. I am simply one voice telling you from the studied experience of my own that writing, phoning, and voting DO make a difference when your voice joins many others who do the same. And to always vote a straight party ticket could get the devil elected.


We know scarcely anything about who our president and his wife really are. And we know nothing at all about the private deals our president makes with his administration or with foreign leaders. We read about these things instead from a news media that has fawned on him primarily because of his race and power, and are totally willing to avoid saying anything negative or questionable about our Commander-in-Chief or his wife that isn’t warm and fuzzy. And yet what they are doing or saying privately totally affects you, me, and the people of our nation. “The most transparent presidency in history” has turned out the lights and said “go away” ever since he was elected president. Wheeling and dealing has to be commonplace in an administration so full of scandal.


I am not suggesting with anything I’ve written or am saying that President Obama and his wife are anything but good people who absolutely care that America continues as the most important nation in the world for freedom’s sake. And that they are not totally honest in everything they do or say that affects our nation. But what I am meaning is that America’s voters have grown extremely lax in their moral responsibility to safeguard the constitutional requirements of the highest office in our land and to demand real answers from the candidates.


Probably because statewide candidates remain in their own state throughout their campaigns, voters are much more apt to know the backgrounds and the foregrounds of the candidates. And those who don’t care who wins seem to stay away from the voting booth during midterms. Tragically, that represented two thirds of registered voters in America this time.


For whatever it is worth, I am of the opinion that America has begun to vote not for the needed qualifications in a president, but for the best orator running for the office, or because it wants to make restitution for its former racial intolerance, or even because of gender. I also believe that if this tendency continues in the majority of voters we will suddenly find ourselves with someone who fits one of the categories in my opening statement.


I am told that the younger generation – the millennial’s -don’t care what happens to America. Hollywood seems to have convinced them that picking up chicks or guys in a bar and going to bed with them is what America now is all about. Few of them will listen to this newscast because they’re not at all interested in the news or in transparency. They don’t care that our government knows exactly what they’re saying and exactly where they are because they are still going to do and say whatever they want to anyway.


Supposedly, the millennial’s also believe this world is going to end much sooner than they would end otherwise and that they need to grab all the gusto they can and live for now. If they protest at all, they protest only for the fun of it or because they like to show their anger once in awhile. If that report is true about the millennial’s, it is highly probable that they will lose all their freedoms before the eve of destruction.


I urge anyone still listening or reading this news report to join me in expressing your desires to the president and the politicians who say they are representing you. I am not anti-Obama, but I believe it is high time to hold his feet to the fire until he stops telling us only what he wants us to hear whether it is true or not. I wasn’t able to keep my doctor. I believe the path to citizenship should only come to those who have legally applied for it. And I believe it is getting harder and harder for God to bless America.


One thing about great speakers, they are almost always great actors too. Actors, because of their adoring fans, usually have tremendous egos and don’t care a whit about those fans other than they keep on adoring them. And actors always believe their press clippings. When a president is doing that with a news media that lavishes him with praise and doesn’t tell the truth any more than he or she does, the nation they are supposed to lead is in the kind of great danger that America is right now.

The Tallest Skyscraper In America Has Just Opened

The Tallest Skyscraper In America Has Just Opened


With all the attention of television news focused on the midterm elections, one story has nearly slipped through the cracks. It’s up and up and up and up so high that, like the Twin Towers that were called the World Trade Center, it is the tallest skyscraper in America, its welcome mat is now in place and it is open for business.


The Center officially opened on Tuesday (November 3rd), thirteen years after radical Muslim terrorists murdered more than 2700 people by flying their planes into the Twin Towers, causing them to collapse. Originally called the Freedom Tower, One World Trade Center has been built in honor of all those who died that day – September 11, 2001 – their families and all who loved them. It is also meant to stand as a symbol of America’s greatness, saying to all the world that even if we our nation is knocked down hard, we will rise up again stronger than ever. It was built with reinforced concrete to add a strength to the One Freedom Tower that the Twin Towers never had. It took eight years to complete and there are six more buildings that will ultimately accompany it and are in various stages of development.


For many years New York boasted of having the tallest building in the world – the Empire State building. Then Chicago topped it with the Sears Building and more recently two buildings in Dubai were built higher still. The Sears Building, which is now called the Willis Building, held the “tallest building in America” title for more than forty years. But today New York once again has their title back.


For those who would quibble, the Freedom Tower is not the first but the fourth tallest building in the world. But who can quibble with a 1,776 foot building 104 stories high and that cost 3.9 billion dollars to erect? And be sure to catch the significance of its height – 1776 has a great deal of meaning to all Americans.


The One World Trade Center stands exactly where the collapse of the original World Trade Center occurred. Its eventual seven buildings will all be located on 16 acres of land surrounding them and will be used for a myriad of businesses just as the former World Trade Center was. 60% of the building just completed is already leased by various companies .


The mass media company Condé Nast actually moved into One World Trade Center in 2010 and are currently located in five of its stories. On the northeast corner of the Center is the September 11 Memorial and the Freedom Museum displaying photographs, films, and important memorabilia from the tragedy of 9/11.


From the observation platform that will soon be open at the Freedom Tower, it will be possible to see the Statue of Liberty, parts of Connecticut and New Jersey, and will offer a spectacular view of the Atlantic Ocean.


The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey own the building and the entire 16 acres. Patrick Foye, Executive Director of the Port Authority, said as the One World Trade Center opened “The New York City skyline is whole again, One World Trade Center takes its place in Lower Manhattan.”
