I would like to hear your take on the election. I don’t think you’re going to be telling me who the better candidate is, but I’m just guessing here.
Kupsc: The only thing I want to mention about the election, the upcoming election – first, I’m not even going to mention McCain because there’s no point.
I’d like to talk about Obama just a little bit. It took me a very long time to understand what Obama was standing for. I was really always impressed with the quality of his posters and his logo. I could not believe how good his posters were and how good his logo is.
Finally, I think I read something by Naomi Klein. I was reading her book No Logo a few months ago. It’s a very impressive book. I love Naomi Klein.
It dawned on me just a few days ago that Obama is not a person. We’re not going to elect a person to the office of the presidency. We’re going to elect a logo. We’re going to elect a poster, a blank slate and a logo.
This is what Americans have been doing for a very long time. They vote for a brand identification. Brand identification is what drives this country crazy. People stick to their logos for their shoes, their caps, their cars. It’s all about the logo. You have to identify yourselves through wearing a logo.
Now, people will identify themselves by voting for a logo, not a person. Obama is a blank slate. He flip-flops on everything. He supports FISA, supports the troops staying in Iraq a little bit longer.
He does all the stuff a mainstream politician would do, Democrat and Republican alike.
I’m really disturbed that his advisors are heavily involved with The Trilateral Commission. I have a feeling that the direction of this country is going to take another turn for the worse if, indeed, The Trilateral Commission has anything to say about that and I expect they will.
Bonanno: Some time ago I wrote an article. I was so proud of myself. I used a word and I thought I made it up. It was “Corporacracy”. I was so disappointed to find out that around two or three hundred people had used it before I did. There’s another version which is “Corportacracy”.
This is a bit of a commentary rather than a question but, to me, no matter who’s elected – if they are, indeed elected by the way, we know how our voting system is – no matter who’s elected, they’re going to do what they’re told by people who want to make a lot of money. That’s just an opinion. I guess I have no real proof of that.
Kupsc: We can only hope. Just being realistic, I vote for a third party candidate.
This is my personal statement. I don’t believe in the two party system. Soviet Russia had more parties to choose from than we do. I believe in a multi-party system and I vote for a third party.
I’m also realistic. I know that my vote is not going to make any difference and I’m most likely throwing my vote away. I look at it from another perspective.
In all likelihood, we will have an election unless there’s an October surprise of some kind. We have “Continuity of Government” proclaimed.
Bonanno: Exactly. Directive 51, right?
