is not worthy of<br \/>\nany major political organization much less one designed to select the<br \/>\nleader of the so-called free world.<\/p>\n<p>For those like myself who have long-championed the need for a third<br \/>\npolitical party, this is a mixed blessing since Mr. Trump is relying on<br \/>\ndemagoguery and the cult of personality to promote himself rather<br \/>\nthan a clear agenda to benefit the nation.<\/p>\n<p>For those who are convinced that elections have become increasingly<br \/>\nmeaningless exercises in diversionary entertainment, this is further<br \/>\nevidence to support their theory.<\/p>\n<p>As things now stand, the process of disintegration of the American<br \/>\npolitical system is accelerating with Trump as a symptom of the<br \/>\nproblem rather than its cause.<\/p>\n<p>I have longed complained of the massive corruption and secrecy that<br \/>\nemerged out of the Cold War which President Eisenhower warned about<br \/>\nin his Farewell Address of 1961.<\/p>\n<p>The series of articles from the Washington Post in 2010 illustrated the<br \/>\nvast array of new programs that emerged from 9\/11 to promote security.<\/p>\n<p>These projects have relied on technology to constrain our liberties rather<br \/>\nthan enhancing our well-being as the Kerse folks want to do.<\/p>\n<p>It is this reality that Jesse Ventura or Cynthia McKinney or Ron Paul have<br \/>\nattacked and who would make excellent third party candidates dedicated<br \/>\nto the transformation of the political landscape.<\/p>\n<p>With the Pope and other groups calling for a new global authority to govern<br \/>\nthe entire world in order to protect the environment and promote economic<br \/>\nfairness, the backlash against authority that Trump represents is completely<br \/>\nunderstandable.<\/p>\n<p>I predict his campaign will end up going third party. Hopefully this will be a<br \/>\npositive development and a baby-step in the right direction where something<br \/>\nlike the Keshe Initiative will emerge to empower the world.<\/p>\n<p>The greater danger and likelihood is that more war, economic decline<br \/>\nand civil unrest will be part of our immediate future whether under Trump,<br \/>\nBush, Clinton or any other new president.<\/p>\n<p>How to switch gears and implement the new positive paradigm before<br \/>\nhumanity self-destructs: that is the issue facing everyone today.<\/p>\n<p>Should he somehow become President, Mr. Trump will have to move<br \/>\nbeyond rhetoric and accept this immense challenge or see the nation<br \/>\nhe intends to lead fall further into decay and moral collapse.<\/p>\n<p>References<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rumormillnews.com\/cgi-bin\/forum.cgi?read=22853\">70th Knowledge Seekers Workshop A New Way To Bring Humanity Forward &#8211; Keshe Foundation VIDEO<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/?p=17913\">CIA Conducts Domestic Assassinations, Functions As Secret Government \u2014 Ron Paul<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/revolutionradio.org\/?p=104960\">Dictators and Billionaires Demand Creation of UN Tax Agency\u2026\u201cTax Inspectors Without Borders.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/2015\/07\/breaking-gop-strategists-plot-to-ban-donald-trump-from-debates\/\">BREAKING: GOP Strategists Plot to Ban Donald Trump From Debates<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/firstlook.org\/theintercept\/2015\/07\/22\/top-fundraisers-hillary-clinton-jeb-bush-work-lobbying-firm\/\">Lobbyists Fundraising for Clinton, Bush, Rubio and Kasich Are Coworkers<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.informationclearinghouse.info\/article42457.htm\">A Hidden World, Growing Beyond Control<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Westlake Village, CA July 23, 2015 Bringing Humanity Forward: Trump vs. Keshe by Rich Scheck For many years, I promoted the peaceful uses of outer space.
