If we all had a choice in political change, that would be "true democracy". It would be a government that was run by the people for the people, not by an individual who set standards which we had to obey. Democracy goes far back into the past. It is based on the Ten Commandments, most of which we have disregarded. Most are not even considered laws.

Who do we really have to choose from? The ones that have the most money to put themselves upon the election stand. If Jesus were alive and were to run, he would not even have been recognized. We have only the wealthy that make it to top government positions, and then we have to make a choice between few of them, if we even have a choice.

We have also been led by the media, and the media has been paid off by the candidates. As we well know, we definitely have "democratic" and "republican" news, newspapers and even particular television shows. We can even hover around our radios at one time to hear the various "promotions" of an individual.

I must get into a quote regarding the media:
"I am gross and perverted, obsessed and deranged.
I have existed for years, but very little has changed.
I am the tool of the government, and industry too.
For I was destined to rule and regulate you.
I may be vile and pernicious in the stuff that I say.
And even though I'm malicious, you can't look away.
I'm the best you can get. Have you guessed me yet?
I'm the slime oozin' out of your TV set!"
Quote: Frank Zappa 1969 { Slime of your Video }

This is our main media source. It tells all the stories that we want to hear. It does not get into all the background information that is covered up by its sugarcoating. We must not be misled by those who have presented these "fractured facts" to our minds.

There has to be freedom somewhere, somewhere where the people know of a good many men with the attitudes that will prevail towards the justice of ALL the common {wo}men.

How do we find such freedom? I can only tell you that the closest to any of this type of governmental policy is that of Costa Rica. The people have ousted 3 presidents from their seats into prisons and have even moved their present president from a fine home to a lower class home until his thoughts for his people and environment have changed. I do not know if even the people of the Netherlands have this "freedom", nor do I think that the wealthy country of Switzerland, has obtained this goal.

Some of the "4th" world countries are ruled by the people themselves. They are also relatively very small, and have agreed upon their own decision-making as a group. Can this be achieved worldwide? Perhaps not, but it most probably was the way the world first began, as all ideas from all the people were valued for the survival of the community. A return to this way may be necessary for our future survival!

Writer Profile
Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.


We are all within each other. When that is realized, our prejudice and communication interference will be that of telepathic communication. We will be one with each other and one with the world. These bodies are only temporary forms that keep us restricted from our own heavenly place.
It is only a temporary restriction, especially upon those who intend to use their "physical attributes" with just the selfish, social advancement of themselves.
If this world had started to gain acceptance and understanding of all problematic errors within, we may have been able to share these "advancements" with our brothers and sisters, who are NOW--not later--in danger, not from the immediate natural disasters, but of those that will not surrender the help they need to overcome their immediate handicaps.
The ones of unshared power with food, shelter, clothing, and then to add the militia.
The militia could have been justified, if its intentions were there for the less fortunate, not to take more from the unfortunate.
I live on my lifelong work of gathering a pension, which is paid back to me only due to many years of work. Others work hard, and see nothing. All I have to Always say is "Me casa, es Su casa!", Mucho Amore e "Pura Vida!"
