We need to face the fact that the present American political-economic system is not merely wasteful, divisive and damaging. It does not produce government of, by and for the people. Not really. What it often does produce is government of, by, and for the rich, regardless of which party wins control of Congress and the White House.
Because partisan politics breeds and fosters dishonesty, greed and corruption, it can turn otherwise good people into disingenuous and dishonest demagogues who launch misleading, slanderous attacks against each other. And after each election, we become either winners or losers, and usually far more than half of the population is not represented by our government. In fact, most often (like during the last eight years) the great majority is not really represented and only the wealthiest few are truly represented.
But we can have government of, by and for all the people, and we will have it as soon as enough people get the message and abide by God's will. Then we will no longer be divided and ruled by a partisan "pretender to the throne." We will share the "throne" as equal joint heirs, and, at long last we will have government that is truly of, by and for the people. We will be able to govern ourselves, determine our own destiny, and use the common wealth for the common good.
That's why the message from the Spirit of truth is so very important. It shows how we can end the divisive competition for power, and instead share it as we should.
If you read the pages titled How the Meek Shall Inherit the Earth and The New Declaration of Independence, you will see a summary of how and why the monarchial presidency will ultimately be replaced by an executive council of twelve members, six of whom will be men, and six of whom will be women. On the page titled New Declaration of Independence I concisely lay out the justification for it, and I fully discuss it in the book titled What IS the World Coming To?: A Candid Look at Past, Present and Future Through the Lens of Real Prophecy and Common Sense.
When you read about how and why that will happen, you may be able to imagine an executive council that truly represents all the people, and you could probably name and nominate (or attempt to draft) on write-in ballots a dozen people who you greatly admire and respect for their wisdom and good works. Of course, of those who are the most popular choices, only the top 12 who accept the responsibility would be elected and serve on the council, but at least we would have the total freedom and opportunity to name who we would really want to represent us.
Personally, when we have free choice and equal opportunity to choose our leadership, I would probably name or nominate a few of my favorite politicians, but I would also nominate other knowledgeable, wise and well known people who I most respect and admire. Some might be journalists, some might be actors or entertainers, and some might be authors or consumer advocates or political activists. I could name many good, wise, caring people who have been doing many good works for the benefit of all people.
Of course, you may name anyone you want, and the choice would be yours, freely, and independently, as you will see. That’s the beauty of the new political system.
As I’ve explained on those other pages, if we the people choose wisely -- if we choose wise and humble people, who are not self-important or self-righteous, who have done good works to try to help and educate all the people -- we can actually be represented by a government that is truly of, by the for the people. We will no longer be ruled by a divisive, partisan pretender to the throne. We can virtually share the throne, as the equal joint heirs that we are.
We can put an end to political partisanship, nationalism, and religious bigotry. We can establish true political democracy, equality and equity, and we can establish true religious freedom, equality and pluralism.
America can truly become a shining example to the world, when we treat all religions, races, nationalities and cultures equally, and when we establish true democracy. We can lead the way in liberating humanity. We can make it so, if we have the courage and the faith to do so.
