    Both!

    ...... Am I naive to think that a Utah State Dollar might be the best form of insurance against a massive devaluation of the USA dollar????!!!

    Could a Utah State Dollar save the USA Dollar?
    Have you seen any of the following films:

    1. The Future of Food
    2. Food Inc
    3. The World According to Monsanto.

    If so..... then you know that the USA dollar to some degree is linked to and backed up by a plan to control the world's production of food in such a way that could eventually produce global famine.

    Back in 1994 I found out that President Lincoln had saved American taxpayers four billion dollars in interest payments and since that time I have been wondering what alternative was available to improve monetary policy that would not scare the investors on Wall Street.

    A Utah State Dollar could perhaps be the answer!????!!!

    What did you personally think of the way that Canada's P. M. Stephen Harper went against all the other leaders of the G-8 back in 2011?


    http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news...per-stands-alone-at-g8-summit/article4263322/
    On Israel, Harper stands alone at G8 summit
    .....
    ...
    ....
    In my opinion he likely saved the lives of hundreds if not thousands if not tens of thousands of Palestinians and Israelis because the Palestinians have leaders who sure don't mind getting their people all worked up when it seems like major world leaders are siding with them???!!!

    Why run anyone from the Republican Party? It looks like the American voters are going to get suckered into voting for Hillary. Eight more years of pro-corporate, all war all the time rightwinger dressed in blue and the Republicans don't have to do anything but shake their fists and pretend to be angry.

    It's happened before and time has only made Romney look wise. He was right about Obamacare, right about Russia, right about Bin Laden (though people don't like to talk about that). I can't think of anything that he wasn't right about, really.

    Thank you immensely for this comment Rainbow Crow!

    I am even thinking that the group of people most likely to be willing to take risks to attempt to set up something of an insurance policy for the USA dollar...... could well be the LDS!

    Personally....... I have to admit that although I disagree with her on some serious issues...... I do consider Ms. Clinton to be an exceptionally intelligent lady!

    I would tend to expect a higher level of intellectual courage out of her than has been the case over the past six years!

    On the other hand...... I am Canadian and I must admit that if the method of financing it was set up properly........ Obama Care could actually be a good thing!

    There are aspects of historical monetary policy that need to be considered....... that politicians are scared to talk about...... because it could potentially scare Wall Street!

    http://www.michaeljournal.org/lincolnkennedy.htm


    Financing Obama Care is the perfect excuse to discuss subjects like this publicly!

    Last week my wife showed me a video of a mob of hundreds of people in Venezuela who had assembled in front of a middle class apartment building complex.

    Soon the people were climbing up the walls and into the balconies and into the apartments..... much like I have seen in a few zombie movies!

    Just think about the possible consequences if the dream/ vision.... whatever it was that was given to Shane Warren about a hurricane of money...... could perhaps happen at some time in the next decade?

    Just scroll to the 18 minute mark.... and watch until about the 21 minute mark..... .this is certainly not a joke.

    Burz.... if I am not mistaken land within 100 kms of major cities is about to become much much much more pricey as people try their best to move away from cities!

    Certainly, back when he tried running for the Senate, his letter to the Log Cabin Republicans saying that he would be a stronger advocate for gay rights in the Senate than his opponent at the time, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, was spot-on: "We must make equality for gays and lesbians a mainstream concern." Prescient.

    Some may still agree with Willard's advocating the US give up on punishing Bin Laden for his crimes, "It's not worth moving heaven and earth spending billions of dollars just trying to catch one person," but I think most Americans agree that it was the correct move to pursue and dispatch the al Qaeda leader responsible for the terrorist atacks of 9/11, just as they now recognize that the Bush's multi-trillion dollar nation-building fiasco in Iraq about which Willard enthused was a catastrophic mistake, but his recommending individually-mandated universal health care for the nation, defending a woman's right to choose, raising the minimum wage, and common sense gun control were all quite savvy:

    Unfortunately, he increasingly strayed in the waning years of his political dalliances:

    “I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state, Jeep, now owned by the Italians, is thinking of moving all production to China. I will fight for every good job in America, I’m going to fight to make sure trade is fair.”

    This was completely wrong. Bloomberg News had reported that Fiat, the majority owner of Chrysler, was planning to once again start building Jeeps in China, after production had been on hold since 2009.

    The article made clear that Chrysler was was “adding Jeep production sites rather than shifting output from North America to China,” but some blogs, such as the Washington Examiner’s Washington Secrets, misinterpreted the article and reported: “Jeep, the rugged brand President Obama once said symbolized American freedom, is considering giving up on the United States and shifting production to China.”
    Four Pinocchios


    The plant in Ohio he was referring to is still open and thriving.

    Willard's NYT op-ed, “Let Detroit Go Bankrupt”, was a case of his going into his panic mode.



    Still, he's clearly a mixed bag.

    That could put some interesting knots in some tails for certain. Obamacare should open the door to a proper healthcare system, though. I'm not sure we have one Democrat in office right now willing to come right out and say we should chuck the HMOs and go with something similar to what many European countries have. If there is, I'd like to know which one has the guts to say it.

    So long as corporate funding decides elections, I don't see how we're going to progress properly at all. Much less make large changes. And if we don't find a way to force our politicians to make some large changes, how much time do we have left before our system collapses? These are the things that worries me. Mrs. Clinton is no doubt intelligent, as is Obama. That doesn't mean they work for the American people. That requires more than intelligence it requires morality and courage.

    Mitt would be the best candidate -- might even win. It was close the last time. Had more white Republican women voted for him instead of Obama, he would have won. This time around there probably won't be a black male candidate for white women to fantasize, fetish, slobber over and vote for -- so, the possibility does exist that Mitt could win.

    Of course in November, Democrats will win the House and pick up even more seats in the Senate, so it wouldn't make any difference.

    Mitt would get a lot of votes but not nearly enough to defeat a Democrat presidential nominee. At any rate it would show that not all Americans are in love with the Democratic Party.

    Another problem would be the fact that a lot of conservatives (Evangelicals, hard-core Baptists and the like) don't know that Mormons are Christians too.

    Moreover, the gorgeous and charming Michelle herself might run. It would be a landslide victory for Democrats.

    Romney is the father of nationalized health care. Since the party has staked its win on obamacare its unlikely Romney will be endorsed.

    All those kids who have polio because Obama used the polio vaccination program to scan for Bin Laden's relatives probably don't agree with you. Obama wanted to be the next FDR, who struck a mortal blow to polio, but instead he brought polio back to the world. You only think it was worth it because leftists hold revenge close to their hearts. Willard is a hero and a man of God; Obama is a villain surrounded by sycophants.

    Just as the GOP trampled upon their own rage over the individually-mandated universal health coverage by nominating its champion in 2012, they could again use Willard to suppress their kvetching about Hillary's age - Willard's older, yet has far less experience in political office than Obama when the whacko birds went icky balooky over his political resumé in 2008!

    I deem Obama a mediocre president, but do you have any actual evidence concerning the opinions of kids with polio?

    - Or are you just using them in a feeble effort to further your ideological agenda?

    Please provide credible links to the attitude of kids with polio expressing their actual sentiments, unless you are just making that up.

    Thank you.

    Thank you for answering another question that I had:


    http://www.politicalforum.com/polit...-likely-protect-2-million-gay-men-uganda.html
    Which GOP leader would be most likely to protect the 2 million Gay men in Uganda?
    In your opinion.... would Mr. Mitt Romney be one of the most likely Republican Party Presidents to attempt to do something concrete to attempt to protect the two million Gay men living in Uganda who are worried about how they will be treated over the coming years and decades?

    President Obama did well to warn the leader of Uganda regarding the anti-gay bill .... but......

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/...0eb_story.html
    Ugandan leader signs harsh anti-gay bill, ignores warning from Obama

    I was rather encouraged how well this topic was received over on a Christian forum:

    http://www.christianforums.com/t7728763/
    God's many plans for the Gay community???????
    I am pretty sure it is over five years since I read the NDE of Mr. Christian Andreason. His NDE account has had a major impact on my life.

    As a former follower of Mr. Garner Ted Armstrong and his dad Mr. Herbert Armstong I must admit that these statements put me into some serious cognitive dissonance at first!!!!??


    http://www.near-death.com/andreason.html#a11

    Five or six years later on and finally I feel confident enough to go into specifics as to what I strongly suspect are a few of the actual plans that the God of Abraham, the Creator of heaven and earth has in mind for the Gay community!!!!

    ..........
    Do you agree that God has plans for the Gay community?
    Yes, God owns this studio, we are the actors playing out our role! 6..... 23.08%
    No, God would never compromise one millionth of an inch with sin!!!! 8.... 30.77%
    Yes, deep down we all love God and He has good planned for all of us. 10....... 38.46%
    I have really never considered this idea before??? 6..... 23.08%

    I just found an interesting comparison between what Mr. Romney had planned in comparison to Obama Care!

    http://usconservatives.about.com/od/healthcare-issues/a/Obamacare-Vs-Romneycare.htm
    As I observed the 2012 campaign from up here in Canada.... I did get the impression that Mitt was pretty good at working even with political opponents!

    From what I have heard about him personally he seems to be a genuinely outstanding man. He is very generous but doesn't brag about it. Unfortunately he as tried to run for President three times now and even when he finally got the nod in 12 he lost. His pandering to the social conservatives ended up killing his campaign as it alienated the libertarian wing of the Tea Party and the social conservatives didn't believe anything he said.

    This is a truly helpful analysis of what happened ReallyBig!

    Fourteen years ago I knew virtually nothing about the Prophetic Movement within Christianity. My wife is a Pentecostal near death experiencer who has astonished me with how accurate her dreams can be!!!

    Here is some sort of prophecy about Mitt that has significant artistic value..... that could be transformed into diplomatic value and economic value. I am Canadian and so since I was a teenager back in the '70's I have noticed that no nation can produce films as good as those that are "Made In The USA."

    Some may think that capitalist sharks like Romney deserve to be defeated twice by wall street lapdogs like Obama and Hillary , personally i think it a cruel and unusual punishment .

    That's a deep subject. I think the Palestinians are the worlds bastard stepchildren, and anything Israel does is accepted as a defense mechanism. Kind of like a person messing with a snake until they are bit and then blaming it on the snake.

    Although I feel little pity for any of them since they are vowed enemies who refuse to get along, and probably never will, even if a border is enforced and a new country is recognized they will simply find something else to argue about.

    It is true that the political climate in regard to "RomneyCare" and "ObamaCare" had changed dramatically.

    The Democratically-controlled Massachusetts legislature were much more amenable to working with a pro-choice, pro-gun control, pro gay-rights Republican governor who proposed the individually-mandated universal coverage model that had been championed by Newt Gingrich, and was praised by the conservative Heritage Society, and actually recommended for the nation by TP darling Jim DeMint.

    Subsequently, the national GOP had veered far right, and their antagonistic senate leader had actually proclaimed that their "top priority" was denying the president a second term rather than exhibiting the bipartisan spirit of the MA legislature in working with Romney in the public interest.

    Despite the politically-motivated revisionism,
