I am Not Afraid of Muslims. I am afraid of Christians, I am afraid of many or most who call themselves Jews, I am afraid of all of the creatures in Congress, I am afraid of white males, I am afraid of the rich, I am afraid of capitalism , I am afraid of corporations, I am afraid of fossil fuels, I'm afraid of Republicans, I am afraid of Democrats, I am afraid of so-called activists with few exceptions, I am afraid of our men and women in uniform, though I didn't use to be. I am afraid of Obama, Hillary Clinton. I am afraid of America. I am Not Afraid of Bernie Sanders and those who seem to be supporting the agenda that he suggest for us.

Those of us who are at all enlightened know reflexively, and somewhat practice, that in a personal relationship there is one thing, and one thing only that we can change, me, myself, ourself. We know almost instinctively and reflexively because we have heard it so often, that we cannot, cannot, cannot, change anyone else to achieve the change we want to see in that personal relationship. We can only change our self. But the left, the best intended, the most informed, rarely if ever carry that understanding into an arena where it is not a one on one personal relationship, but probably a situation involving many many many many people. But nothing changes with respect to the fact that the only thing that one can change is one self. I think my moment by moment reaction to the evils, the atrocities, that I spend all day studying around the world, first and foremost in Palestine, one way or another this is my reaction time and time and time again. I am horrified at the otherwise well-intended people that work to make President Obama change, the Republicans change, the deprived and frightened white people in this country change, Netanyahu change, the UN, the oil industry...change. They look to change anyone and everyone except the only person that they are in a position to change, themselves, and of course, that is the last person in the world that they intend to change.

***** Our nervous system is designed to be capable of different ways of being. These are all encompassing like operating systems, operating environments. They take constant work to build and maintain and therefore it is virtually impossible to maintain more than one or to switch from one to another. The notion of paradigm comes into play here. My early life experiences caused me to build the paradigm of oneness with creation, by whatever name, or no name at all. Not one in a million in our culture is caused to create this paradigm; rather most are discouraged from doing so by the extreme punishments for doing so. I was and AM, no credit to me, some combination of unable, and profoundly morally unwilling, to create and employ the paradigm of Group, nation, me.

By no stretch of the imagination did Obama save America. He may have turned the Titanic a tiny bit. He may have slowed the Titanic a tiny bit. Would anyone in history have done a better job? I can't think of anyone, particularly if their skin was turned black before they took office in 2008. Was he ever the well intended man I thought he was? I don't know anymore. I don't know if I ever will. My best theory is that there is a small circle that controls the government machine. They keep themselves hidden until the President is elected. And then they reveal themselves and literally scare the s*** out of him. I can't see any other way to explain Obama. http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2016/02/james-sanders-supporters-are-fraud-if.html
***** James: The Sanders supporters are a fraud, if, as we did in 2008 and again in 2012, go home after the elections as though anything significant has been won. Chris Hedges: the Democratic Party is the old Republican Party rebranded. The Sanders campaign is a fraud, and can lead to nothing but disappointment. Hedges is sadly, correct, if he is telling us that the entire Democratic machine is against us before, during, and forever after any given election. Their loyalty is to the corporate fascist status quo. Chris Hedges, our consummate, our ultimate intellectual today. A disturbing article. Maybe it is just a cry for attention by Chris. Maybe it is a poorly worded attempt to wake us up. Maybe he is attempting to give Sanders an opportunity to step things up. Maybe he is right.

Hillary is a bureaucrat, NOT a leader. You know the difference, correct? She couldn't, she WOULDN'T, lead a group of preschoolers out of a burning building. She would create policies , organize committees, phone political cronies, pontificate to the press, blame others, raise election funds and make excuses why the children can't be saved, instead. All the while believing herself to be a great leader, and deep inside knowing she is a total fraud, and terrified that others will see the truth, too.

The degree to which we don't live out the love inside of us is the degree to which we truly suffer. And there are those who have shown us that, the truth is, there is no price too great to pay to love fully. I experience my recent decades has learning to follow their example. It is heaven. It looks like hell, but it is heaven. Those lifestyles that look like heaven, are hell.

The ‘Clinton Bubble’: How Clinton Democrats Fostered the 2008 Economic Crisis
John Lewis just revealed himself as a selfserving, grandstanding, selfcentered fraud, as I have seen him to be for years now. "When you use your history as a hero of the Movement to disparage others because you never personally knew them, it is a slap in the face to all those people who fought hard and never made it into the history books or into Congress. It is a slap in the face to people like my grandmother."

To my friend who started storm is coming, who I still respect: There are 6 captains on the Titanic. Four of them demand that the ship go faster in the same direction. One of them, a lady, of very questionable sincerity, says that maybe, possibly, under certain circumstances, don't look at my crossed fingers, I might want the ship to turn a little bit and to slow down a little bit, but you know, that really isn't possible we have to be real. And one of them, and old man with white hair but full of fire says that the ship is going too fast that it has to turn or it will hit the iceberg, that we will all have to stand together to overcome the forces that want to go straight and fast, and you say, folks we have to stand together and no matter what, vote for him or the lady? F*** you.

No credit to me, for years now, I pretty much live as though Creator is watching me every moment. I pretty much live accordingly. And it is so superior to all the other ways I've tried, so infinitely joyful, interesting, enriching, absorbing, challenging. One of the major ways, if not the major way, that we defend ourselves from a radically moral life, is the device, good. Being good. We use that name to turn the joy of radical virtue into the endured suffering of taking one's bitter medicine because it is good for us. That which is the joyful path is the radically virtuous path, the extremely virtuous path. And we have a trillion reasons that we've created for ourselves to not see it. Oh well. Thanks for hearing me. Hugs I will fail in trying to have radical virtue proliferate. But I will not fail to try. It is the hope. It is the only practical hope.

Help requested: if you know who is playing in this year's Super Bowl, please make absolutely certain, not to tell me. Yes, I am not kidding. I always hated our worship of this type of competition, from my earliest memory. It is absolutely how we prepare our children and ourselves for colonial wars, and justifying the wars of economy that we participate in against each other, thinking that it is virtue. I hate it.
