Nice. I like your thinking here very much, and a very strong and logical case can be made for exactly what you suggest in the way of altering primary and secondary education funding. But, of course, you'll have little chance of getting yourself elected with well considered and logical proposals alone. Your campaign will also need some Pizazz. Naturally someone interested in running for political office has to start somewhere. The usual is to start by getting involved as a campaign worker in local party politics. But this is the slow route. As you have stated that you intend to run straight off for President, you apparently have neither time nor patience for the slow route. May I suggest, therefore, something other as a quicker way to put your name before the public. What I have in mind is an entirely different approach, one that has been shown to provide rapid propulsion in the direction of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC. My suggestion would be to follow the model provided by one Donald John Trump. It proved spectacularly successful in his case. It might in yours as well. He first made a name for himself as as a pathological liar, general asshole and gangster in New York, where he became a widely reviled, household name. He next promoted himself, via his ghost written and largely fictional, book, "The Art of the Deal". The book was a best seller. As a result, he found himself acting the role of a jerk in "reality" TV, a role he proved consummately suited for and one that gave him national name recognition. Somewhere along the line he ditched a wife who accused him of rape and married an immigrant who had overstayed her tourist visa to work illegally as a model. From reality TV stardom he leapfrogged to nomination for U.S. President as the Republican Party's Jackass candidate. The competing candidates acknowledged he was a total loser, with a hotly debated (on National Television) penis size. This made him the perfect candidate to carry the Republican banner, and no time was wasted in handing him the nomination. He campaigned on the novel idea of better relations with Russia, perking up the ears, as it were, of one the most vile murderers on the Planet, Vladimir Putin, who volunteered to help as a silent campaign partner by enlisting Russian Army hackers to help out where they might. With this and twenty-four-seven TV coverage of the candidate's lies and lawsuits, the American proletariat was happy to oblige by electing him President of the United States. Though it was by the slimmest of margins in the American Electoral College, and by large loss in the popular vote, it was enough to claim "the greatest victory ever" in a presidential election. And in a sense it was, taking into account the quality of the candidate. "The Donald" will be remembered for this and his many other remarkable accomplishments. He is the first president in U.S. history to have personally declared himself a "stable genius", the first to be twice impeached, the first to stage a deadly attempt to prevent federal election results from being certified, and the first ex-president to be caught red-handed with stolen top secret government documents. So which of the many singular achievements of The Donald might serve as useful guidance in your own campaign? What can be learned? Is it that notoriety is helpful if you want a chance to be jetted around in Air Force One? Could bragging now about grabbing a few show girl pussies find you, come January 2025, on a flag strewn platform erected in your honor on the West Front of the U.S. Capitol? Would these unconventional routes into our national conscience be worth considering again? Perhaps. In any case I offer them as suggestions for your campaign. I hope you will accept them in the same spirit they are offered, and with every good wish for your upcoming campaign.
Balding, not bald. Receding hairline. Slow procession? One, that's not the correct word. Two, my ability to process information was not the reason for what I admit is a substandard political speech. It was a combination of anxiety and lack of preparation. I've made millions of dollars trading (mostly by being fast), I have a M.S. in Math, and I have a 790/800 math score. I process information fine. Almost certainly better than either Biden or Trump can. At the moment, they are both way better communicators than I am. Not sure why you're resulting to nothing, but personal insults towards me. You seem like a shit person. Very hateful. Hopefully you change someday.
I think when people try to copy Trump, they fail. Like Obama, Trump is charismatic and charisma wins. However, I think after Trump people will still want a charismatic president, but not another one who demonstrates sociopathic tendencies. If I choose to work on becoming more politically viable I will clearly have to work on my communication skills, cut out the filler words, and show confidence. Thomas Jefferson is arguably one of the smartest presidents in history, but he could never get elected today. He simply wasn't the entertainer that you need to be these days.
Made millions and live with mom and dad? You're going to provide tax returns for the last ten years? Why not start here? Nobody refers to genetic-engineering at eugenics. It's a flawed understanding of the topic and tone-deaf AF. I don't see what you bring to the table. You don't seem to have any understanding of civics, govt, econ, etc., and your only work history seems to be that you traded prop for WTS? You're turning 35 election year. Yeah, this is gonna work!
You keep making accusations that aren’t true. I work for a different firm now. I’ve been living by myself since 2017 and since that time I’ve been financially independent. I try to live modestly, but I pay almost $3k per month in rent. I’ve never had a non-trading job. No, this is not the spot where I will release my tax returns. If you personally don’t believe me right now, I don’t give a shit. I owe you nothing. I normally don’t talk much about myself, because this isn’t about me. It’s about ideas and moving society forward. The truth is any anonymous jackass like you can start making up false accusations on an internet forum. On the other hand, I am one of the few people on here who’s willing to show my face and tell people my name. I’ve been off/on this forum for 10 years now and I’ve never tried to sell anybody anything. I have self-awareness, but I’m willing to embarrass myself anyways. Not sure why you’re making shit up against me, maybe you’re just a much weaker person than me who’s projecting. Maybe you’re actually the slow processing “incel” who lives in his parent’s basement. I know what I am, but to be honest, I don’t really care what you are. Now, as to your point, maybe I should use a word or phrase other than eugenics. In history, eugenics was indeed pseudoscience. We didn’t really have any understanding of DNA. Now, the point is to study DNA and eliminate/replace certain genes/combinations from the human population that everybody agrees are undesirable. It’s racially blind. It’s about preventing disease and cognitive impairment. You can call it tone deaf, but it’s what I believe will significantly reduce many societal problems.
Hey Pal, some coward has me on ignore and I can't their vicious comment. What are they railing about that isn't true?
He was just making personal accusations about my lifestyle based on his perception of me. None of it was true, but it doesn't take a lot of guts to hide behind an anonymous username and do that. Luckily, I have extremely thick skin and it's basically impossible for somebody I've never met in real life to hurt my feelings. Based on his negativity towards me, I highly doubt you two would get along.
Since I am the lone ET candidate running against you, I can pick on you for that. You have never had a "non-trading job". So you do not know what real physical work is all about. Your life career has been sitting behind a desk. Well, I have worked both white and blue-collar jobs. I have humped freight, and I have worked spreadsheets in a cubicle/office. I have a broader experience of how American workers live than you do. You are tone-deaf in that you don't really know what the true grunt workers of our society do to make America better each day. Ergo, you know only half of America's problems. Therefore I am the better candidate. Neener!
