About
The http://www.AmericaForPurchase.com website supports my own personal opinions and is intended to express my ideas of democracy, justice, and provide education on governmental issues dear to many Americans. I’m a Proud American, a Vietnam veteran, a progressive Democrat and God believing Christian with a son currently serving in the United States Military.
I believe we should love one another, be kind to strangers, should not judge people based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation of any other feature other than their character. I believe in a woman’s right to choose (it’s her body not the government’s); the right to bear arms and gay Americans are born (it is not a choice).
I believe politics should be left out of churches, synagogues and temples and the ‘religious rights’ main agenda is to control and manipulate people for their own financial and political end. (God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts) I also believe ‘laughter is the best medicine’.
I believe we have one Judge and it is best not to judge others because we have not walked in their shoes nor have they walked in ours.
I proudly support President Barack Obama.
I encourage you to participate, share your opinions and join the debate.

Ancestory –
My paternal ancestors hailed from England as far back as 1066 where he served as a Captain to William the Conqueror, down through Virginia, Tennessee and Texas.
My maternal ancestors can be traced by to the 1730s in New York and New Jersey, moving to Virginia, Oklahoma, Mississippi and Texas.
Thank you for visiting my website. Best wishes!
I really like what you have to say. “I’m a Christian man”
That phrase really caught my eye. As a lesbian I get so much flack from Christians in general.
Thank you for being a Christian man who supports the GLBT community.
I hope we can get to know one another through out blogs.

For most of my 60 years on this planet I have heard so many people say that things will be better when their party takes over. I have seen their arty take over time and time again but things pretty much stay the same. How can people in their right minds repeat the same failed patterns over and over again. I am supposed to be smart with a 166 IQ. No one has ever explained to my satisfaction what smart it. I believe there is a chance that I can sell the Brooklyn Bridge since people continually buy into the jargon spewed out by these two major parties. Liars, cheats and a new group that I call articulate morons. Biden said that Obama was not fit to run a kindergarten. The white house is no place for OJT. When asked about it later he said that he stood by his statement. Two weeks later they are the best of buddies. People actually voted for these two knowing full well that you can’t believe a word that comes out of their mouths. What kind of diminished mental capacity does it take to vote for Bush and Cheney? These people are all the same. Their lip services is a little different. Are we at the point to where we think these people are as good as it gets? I wouldn’t give you 5 cents for any of them. They are in office to serve themselves and load their pockets. Fake presidential debates run by the Commission on Presidential Debates run by the former heads of both parties. With 32 pages of rules and all questions are pre-screened and answers generated in advance. That’s no debate. When will people stop buying into this stuff? Harry Reid said today that the healthcare bill is all paid for. When we owe China alone 800 billion that must be some real crafty accounting. WAKE UP!

gay Americans are born (it is not a choice).
And, as a friend said to me recently, “It doesn’t matter if it’s a choice or not, that is not a reason to have anything against them.”
As MLK said: people should be judged by … the content of their character.

I have been a political historian since 1991 for Lifeaholics of America. Here is my Bio to show I am no freaknut.
I was amazed to find your forum. It is awesome. It is confirmation of what I believe and write. To bad you cannot replace a Talk Show Host. You are superb and appreciated by this olduglymeanhonest historian.
Phantom Historian
Clarence Swinney is unknown in Burlington as a Political Historian.
He does not discuss politics with family or friends.
In 1991, he was apolitical until he read Haynes Johnson book on Reagan “Sleepwalking Through History”. He voted twice for Reagan and was astonished at all the criminal activities and Reagan policies promoted to cut government but did the opposite. Reagan budgets increased Spending by 80% and Debt by 183%. Reagan had 137 members of his administration investigated/charged with crimes usually about money fraud.
He had never heard the name Bill Clinton until he heard two of three speeches by Clinton at Georgetown University in 1991. He was impressed by the ability to express his views in detail without notes.
He started buying books on politics and has purchased over 500 for his library.
He can verify to have read the equivalent of 1,000(200 page) books in 19 years.
The Google has him listed (3-24-11) with over 300,000 articles. He warns that many are duplication or irrelevant to his writings. His name in your address bar gets 2700 of just his articles He has had articles printed in Business Week, New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times and many other publications.
His library contains over 500 books, 300 note books filled with data on budgets, debt, deficit,
plus 45,000 pages of articles in his computer file. He has each annual Global Almanac since 1980.
He once had over 200,000 pages stored on pallets in his garage.
He tried to get two books published in 1998. Publishers wanted a huge fee since he was an unknown writer. His two books were : “Clintonomics vs Reaganomics” and “Scumbag Xpress — how to waste 100 million in a failed effort to destroy a presidency”.
He had frequent communication with Gene Lyons of Arkansas Democrat Gazette
and author of “Fools For Scandal-How the press invented Whitewater ”.. Gene co-authored the Book “The Hunting Of The President” which contained information similar to his. It was a nyt best seller.
He has been writing many articles on INEQUALITY IN AMERICA and how Wall Street ultra rich, since 1980, gained control of most of our Wealth, Major Corporations, Media, Banks, Congress and White House.
He writes that today American are unaware of this redistribution of wealth and income that threatens our democracy. Many economists, including former Fed Chairman Greenspan and current chairman Bernanke, have expressed concern over it. it.
Today, 1% own 43% of Total Financial Wealth; 10% own 70%; 20% own 93%; and 80% or 120,000,000 workers own a measly 7%. Since 1980, the top 1% got an increase of 281% in Income and the middle 20% got 25% or less than inflation.
From 2001-2007, the top 1% got two thirds of Total Income Growth and 90% (139,000,000 workers) got 12%. In 2009, the top 1% got 24% of the total individual income. He calls it a third world distribution or a banana republic.
He concludes that this redistribution since 1980 occurred due to many incremental changes and government policies deliberately designed for Wall Street which permitted it to become the world’s largest gambling Casino instead of adding Jobs and Value to the middle class majority standard of living.
