American schools teach that America was founded on the ideal that “all men are created equal”. It is the fundamental thing taught in schools. But it is a lie.

Super Tuesday 2020 is over, although there are pending electoral counts to be completed.

Americans are fond of labeling other countries as “first-world” or “third-world” countries without really understanding where the terms come from. The terms are a legacy of the Cold War, with “third-world” countries being the ones that were not aligned with either the Soviet Union or the United States. Overtime the term has evolved into a… Read More Third-Rate American Democracy

I was asked an interesting question yesterday by a very good friend. They asked what I thought about a Joe Biden and Beto O’Rourke ticket. I hadn’t thought about such a possibility before being asked about it. It is an interesting question that merits some discussion. Biden’s slump in the polls and Beto dropping out… Read More Joe Biden and Beto
Beto O’Rourke is pandering for political votes by misusing the murders of citizens by killers using assault weapons to kill. Either Beto knows that his call for taking assault weapons from the hands of U.S. voters is impossible or he just doesn’t care. This proves that Beto is only trying to garner votes. The fact… Read More Beto Panders for Votes

As a Christian, one of the fundamental dictums I embrace is to spread The Word. “Go ye into the world, and preach the gospel to every creature,” reads the Bible. (KJV Mark 16:15) The verse encourages Christians to spread the Word of God to others who have not heard it or have forgotten it. That… Read More Spreading The Word Versus Imposing The Word
Beto O’Rourke’s quest for the presidency fizzled into oblivion. The campaign remains stagnant at less than two percent in the major polls.

Beto O’Rourke has often claimed the “safest-city”… Read More The Beto Moment?

An Open Letter to Democrat 2020 Presidential Candidates Dear candidates, It is heartening to hear most of you discuss the plight of immigrants in cages and immigrant children being separate from their parents.

Although well intended, legalizing… Read More An Open Letter to Democrat Candidates About Immigration
The last two Democrat presidential candidate debates have clearly proven that Joe Biden is not a friend to immigrants.

El Paso political observers are likely rejoicing that Beto survived the CNN debates last night. The El Paso dream of a homegrown president remains in place. But it is fleeting.
