"Americans Vote for Pride"

My new RightNetwork column, "Americans Vote for Pride" is up. It explores one of the overlooked reasons why Americans voted as they did in the last election. Call it an exercise in Poli Psych. Link here.

RE: 'Pride'??!!?!?

That's a LOUSY reason/justification for voting. Probably one of the worst. Reminds me of high school football competitions. Something as opposed to reason and logic.

Albert Einstein once stated....

All of us who are concerned for peace and the triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field.

Hence, Democrats and Obama.....

I 'Hope' they're getting full appreciation of the 'Change'.

P.S. Once Again....

....I blame the vaunted American Public Education system, and all of its wonderful 'teachers' for getting US to this point.

[1] The 'ignorance' stemming from their unwillingness to actually TEACH their students knowledge.

[2] The 'stupidity' from emphasizing 'self-esteem' over everythink else. That lead to a level of 'pride' that got US to this situation we face today.

The last election notwithstanding.
