WHY OBAMA WON AND ROMNEY LOST, AN EPITAPH FOR THE HORSE AND WAGON PARTY

I was concerned about the outcome of the elections on Tuesday night until I saw so many people at my Town Hall voting, and saw reports of other states with voters standing in line for hours, then I realized that Obama would win. No one shows up in droves to vote for Republicans. My only concern was that the Republicans might have rigged the elections again in the major swing states, the way they did in 2000 and 2004. So many Americans hate what Republicans stand for and their outdated ideology, that even with rampant Republican election fraud the overwhelming numbers voting for Obama deluged the archaic voting system and any faulty machines were immediately noticed, and all election officials wanted to avoid corruption charges and class action lawsuits against them.

I was happy to see the state of Florida had no relevance in this election. Obama won enough Electorial College votes without Florida voters. Even as of today no voting tallies have been released from Florida. I laughed when I saw the Florida Registrar of Voters breaking down in tears as she tried to explain the breakdown in Florida’s voting process. All the tampering and election fraud committed by the Republicans in Florida finally caught up to them and crashed their entire system. The irony of this is almost unbelievable.

The only great concern I have about the outcome of this election is the frightening aspect that the American voters still insisted on keeping a Republican majority in the House of Representatives. This insures another deadlock and the almost certain reality of America falling off the “Fiscal Cliff”, but Romney would have made the fall much worse. Four years of Republican policies would have brought the U.S into complete collapse and revolution. It is time now for all to consider compromise, however if the House of Representatives continues to obstruct the will of the majority of the American people I believe they will regret their actions with the greatest outpouring of hatred and contempt the American people can direct at them. The voices of millions of screaming angry Americans will crumble the Capital Building and destroy all who allowed this country to fall into the abyss. Republicanism has become the Hooverism of the 1930s combined with massive racial hatred against Barack Obama and minorities and a cold,callous indifference to the poor and middleclasses. The American social structure is becoming undone, without massive government interventions millions more Americans will suffer even greater than they are now.

Recently conservative talk show hosts have said that conservatives must defy the results of this election and continue their support of Republican obstructionism in Congress. This is the most boneheaded group of people in the world. These fools would rather see the U.S destroyed than see a Black Man in the Presidency. They would rather destroy themselves and their country and be seen as idiots,racists, criminals and lackies for the Koch Brothers, rather than allow any necessary liberal or moderate legislation to be passed. It has come down to the great divide, experienced during the lead up to the Civil War. The hatred, greed and stupidity of all factions of conservatives and Republicans will destroy their political party, and their hopeless conservative movement to stop the tidal wave of progress and ignore the changing demographics and desparate needs of the American people.

America can not look back to the 1950s except in retrospect an learn from the failures of that time period. Segregation was legal, and a white population was in the majority. All the great legislation of the New Deal and the rebuilding of the war ravaged countries of Europe brought about the idea of Globalism and ended the isolationism of the United States, and made it the world power, both militarily and financially. Those days are beyond us now. Those dreams of our parents and grandparents have faded with age and indifference and become a grim illusion for millions of Americans who refuse to see their country crumbling. They refuse to see the changing population, or the failing infrastructure that they so proudly built in the 1930s and 1940s under work programs passed by a Democratic Congress and President. They fail to see the forward change of their children and grandchildren as the technological revolution has changed the way Americans and the world think, work and live. They have refused to aid in the restructuring of our public school system by creating an elitest system of vouchers and private schools that would isolate children into more divisive factions, to further the failed ideologies of the past.
The Republican Party should be seen as the Horse and Wagon Party. They keep believing that the horse and buggy were the best means of transportation, even though it is the slowest and least effective method of transportation today. Republicans will soon find themselves living as the Amish of Pennsylvania, who refuse all progress and modernism in their lives. This is the course the GOP has taken for their future. The Past can never be the Future. The people of the Future can only benefit from the accurate history of the Past, to understand the evolutionary and revolutionary changes that have taken place and are taking place. The Republican Party and its Conservative followers have buried their heads in the sands of time and have become absurd and laughable to entire new generations of Americans, who are faced with overwhelming problems and decisions for their future. No conservative ideology or political party can withstand the onslaught of the knowledge and intelligence of new demanding generations who aspire to dreams unknown and uninvisioned by past generations due to technological and social advances made in the last 100 years. The Republican Party will be abolished in the coming four years, as Americans and the people throughout the world will soon reach a global compromise without the aid of their inept governments. There will be a world wide revolution to fight for the freedom and safety of the world’s future. All governments as we know them will change dramatically to serve their people, in cooperation with the global population. Conservative ideals of isolationism, excessive greed and selfishness, unbridled capitalism and restricted educations, mid twentieth century homes and architecture will become regionalized into small segregated towns and villages, seen as odd tourist attactions and museums of America’s past. Foolish conservative slogans and ideologies will be advertised on falling billboards off isolated, potholed, two lane highways leading to the most desolated and impoverished areas remaining in the United States. Where the residents all listen to one conservative radio station that controlls the local airwaves.
