Why A McCain/Palin presidency did not happen on November 4th 2008

By Robert Singer

A McCain/Palin presidency did not happen on November 4th. Not because it violated the law of presidential politics, but because it violated the law of vice presidential politics. You can have a vice president more powerful than the president but not more popular. Nixon, Bush, Cheney – powerful, yes, but about as popular as Ohio's electronic voting machines. McCain and Palin were on the same bridge to nowhere in the 2008 election.

Sara Palin has been compared to Dan Quayle in that both were selected to give the illusion that the public voted for the candidate the puppet masters had decided beforehand would be President.

Dan Quayle, whose Christianity involved questioning the family values of a mythical television character, would allow the pundits to speculate it was the Evangelical's that voted for the unpopular H.W. George Bush. No one expected Evangelicals to actually vote for Bush/Quayle; that was a bonus and made fixing the election easier.

Sara Palin will allow the pundits and John McCain to blame his loss on his advisers who forced him to accept Sara Palin over his friend Joe Lieberman. After all, the public would not be expected to vote for McCain with a Hockey Mom one 72-year-old's heartbeat away from the presidency. The puppet masters had it easy in 1988 when the gullible Evangelicals voted for Bush. Palin's performance in the vice presidential debates was remarkable and if her Joe Six-Pack popularity continued, it would have made fixing the election harder.

Barack Obama, an unknown senator four years ago, travels in the same circles as other members of the super-secret Skull & Bones society of Yale University--George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, and even John Kerry. John Kerry pretended to be running for president in 2004. The puppet masters did their best to "swift boat" Kerry, but it wasn't enough. Americans didn't want another four years of Dubya. Mark Crispin Miller, author of Fooled Again, said Kerry conceded because his campaign advisers pressured him to do so, even though his vice presidential running mate, John Edwards, preferred to wait until they had more information. "Kerry's caving in like that gave an enormous gift to the right wing," Miller said. "They (the conservatives) could now claim, 'well, even their (the Democrats') candidate doesn't think it was stolen. And they (Kerry and his advisers) left ... the American people hanging out to dry there."

Kerry's decision not to fight left millions of Americans wondering if democracy had been stolen – along with the last two presidential elections.

The Candidate for Change, Barack Obama, might just be the most remarkable man the world has ever seen--intellectual, oratorical, governmental and a genius. He rose from obscurity to power with his top economics adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, the co-founder of David Rockefeller's Trilateral Commission. And if you need more proof, his beautiful wife, Michelle, is reputed to be closely linked to the Council on Foreign Relations.

It did not matter who you voted for on November 4th. Senator Barack Obama from the state of Illinois was going to be the next president of the United States; Governor Palin aka Hockey Mom was the Obama insurance policy.
