“Promises” is the game played by most professional politicians, tell the public anything and get elected to the high office in the White house and eventually they will build you a Memorial Library.

Herbert Hoover promised the voters a chicken in every pot. When he left office in 1932, not only was there no chicken but most of the families did not even have the pot…

At the present stage of the coming election as it now stands a third Bush Library might be a dream turned into a nightmare. Jeb’s misquotes along the knowledge that a number of his advisors were part of Bush No. 2 advisory team. And we all are still paying for the advice he received, such as the scenario of his landing on the aircraft carrier dressed as Captain America with the Mission Accomplished banner fluttering high on the ship’s superstructure. The banner should have read Mission Impossible. Our country is still reeling from the advice he received and acted on.

As proven, some of these professional politicians are an unscrupulous lot, deception is in their genes. Donald Trump is new to this game; he is neither a huckster nor a visionary; he is someone who gets thing done as his background shows.

He surrounds himself with not cronies or pals but knowledgeable people. He intends to put this country as it once was under the likes of Harry Truman and R. Reagan. When Rodney Dangerfield said He Gets No Respect, it is the same for the USA during the last three or four administrations. D. Trump will change that once in office.
