    Yes...… I have met a few people who I would encourage to consider campaigning for the office of President of the USA..

    One of them is a poster on this forum:

    Russia Is Doing It – Russia Is Actually Abandoning The Dollar

    (page 71.... post #706):

    In my opinion this man has a message that Americans need to hear......…

    Alpha certainly isn't the only person saying that in the past two years.

    True...… but his analysis of the F-35 was so astonishingly well done that I just had to copy and paste it into a discussion that I had going about this.

    The doubt that I was beginning to have about the F-35 has been alleviated!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/showthread.php?t=380300&page=6&p=1064743474#post1064743474

    Is this analysis of the F-35 accurate?

    The way that AA writes and thinks could play an important role in inspiring young people to begin to value education more highly.

    In a way..... poll choice number 4 has some truth to it!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/religion-philosophy/351985-post-proof-god-exists.html

    This discussion thread will make it more than a little challenging for AboveAlpha to represent a certain political party in 2016 but.......... he has brought up a controversial subject that when discussed in the right way can play a role in bringing Americans closer together!

    The level of respectfulness with which AboveAlpha treats people who disagree with him is something that we do not see often on discussion forums!

    With all due respect, have you lost your mind? (I have a deep suspicious that there are many AA's). His statements are totally false in some instances, especially in the science subjects.....I got to go ...I am going to take up drinking again!@

    You don't have to sell me on AboveAlpha. I'm already a fan.

    Yeah, sure, I'd vote for him. :thumbsup:

    But, yes, I also think his posting history will come back to haunt him. He's said too much(!) on human rights stuff specific to certain deeds he's done!

    Excellent!

    AboveAlpha also has a tendency to fully redeem himself with other statements that he makes on controversial topics.

    DennisTate, I know you like AboveAlpha, and you tend to get excited.... But I agree with Rev. on one thing, you might be taking this thing a little bit far.

    Although AboveAlpha has a fine upstanding character and certain qualities that make him a natural leader, his JOBS makes it unlikely that he could ever reveal his identity to run for President.

    When you want him to become President, sometimes it's a symptom of too much AboveAlpha! (No offence intended AboveAlpha).

    True................. it is quite possible that he may not be able to fully toss his hat in the ring........ (especially as soon as the last few months of 2015 which would be necessary in order to be a viable Presidential candidate by 2016 but)........... I believe AA knew that this possibility was in his future and there are advantages to discussing this here and now!

    RevAnarchist......... one of the reasons why I may be getting a bit too enthusiastic about this is because I am positive that you are onto something important with that discussion you began with quotations from Rabbi Judah ben Samuel regarding the year 2017?!

    I do not fully understand how things will work out but..................... I have some things in mind that would be almost certain to make matters better rather than worse?!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/religion-philosophy/381229-jesus-returns-2017-a.html
    Jesus returns in 2017,,,,

    ..... Actually RevAnarchist....... my understanding of Jewish end time prophecies is that it is not necessarily the return of Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus that occurs in 2017..... I believe that CYRUS must be raised up first!

    Isaiah chapter 45 must be fulfilled before Zechariah chapter 14 can fully occur?! (I think)?!

    In a way........ I am proposing a series of documentary plus reality films where I try my best to talk AA into auditioning for the role of a modern Cyrus.......

    http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=Isa&c=45&t=KJV


    Isaiah 45:4

    The fact that AA is an Agnostic at this stage of his life..... makes him PERFECT for the role that I have in mind!

    No, with my political experience, if he is really the honest person he looks like ... he is not suitable for politics [and this is a merit!].

    Wow he's got quite a fan! However my reading of his various posts is that he has a Brian Williams problem, so I'll be voting for someone else.

    AboveAlpha is astonishingly honest as well as amazingly well informed.

    I should already have been aware of the specifics in his answer here...… but I wasn't.

    Ocean acidification....

    (page 2, reply #18)....

    There is some good news on this front. Various levels of the Canadian government invested one point four billion dollars in a large "carbon capture" plant in Saskatchewan.

    They are taking about ninety percent of the CO2 out of the coal burning process but they are also taking out most of the sulfur dioxide.

    They sell much of the CO2 to the oil industry to be pumped down into oil wells to bring up a higher percentage of the oil out of each well.

    The Sulfur Dioxide is used to make sulfuric acid and also much of this is also sold to industry.

    Do you mean that you think he has made statements about the Iraq war that you believe are incorrect?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Williams

    I personally believe that Americans are largely blissfully ignorant of how much danger we and our ally Israel may have been in from Iraq.

    I have read that one of the areas in which Russia got ahead of America was in the production of dirty nuclear bombs that weren't much larger than a softball.

    There is a lot of evidence that Saddam wanted nuclear weapons. Saddam and Iraq had an astonishing amount of oil wealth. After the fall of the Soviet Union very poor Russian nuclear scientists and other officials were in a position to be able to deliver nuclear devices to almost anybody with the kind of money that they wanted.

    Perhaps President Bush deserves some credit for allowing Americans to feel safe........ and laugh and make fun of him for the way that he pursued WMD's in Iraq. But the truth of the matter as it comes out over the upcoming decades may prove that Saddam really did want WMD's.......... and was in a position to get them........ but the best thing for the average American is that they be lied to by the media and that the President be made fun off for being naive?!



    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khidir_Hamza

    We should be open to the real possibility that it may be necessary to discredit witnesses like Khidir Hamza in order to keep Americans feeling somewhat more safe and secure????

    Every American President is looked at in a different way by different groups of people depending on their world view.

    Virtually every President is considered to be some sort of anti-Christ by a small segment of the population.

    A near death experiencer from Uganda named Eporu Ronald Alfred has written an article on a coming political leader who will positively transform the way that the world works.

    Over 2500 years ago Cyrus gave freedom of religion to all 127 provinces of the Medo-Persian Empire and basically set slaves free in a surprising number of ways. America needs a myth to work on....... that might just happen to eventually prove to be significantly "true"............… I read this several years ago and felt that the author did the best job of explaining how Isaiah chapter 45 applied to our time period that I have ever read.

    This writing has significant potential artistic, diplomatic and even economic value if it is looked at in the right way?!


    President Abraham Lincoln was working on "setting captives free" in more ways than one! It is time that we take this basic idea into the realm of releasing Americans from personal debt........... that is almost certainly a deliberate policy that tends to break unions and lower expectations of Americans?!

    Yes....... truth is an essentially unstoppable force!

    AboveAlpha has the courage to be truthful.........… on virtually every major subject that can be brought up.

    Near death experiencer Howard Storm was shown an America where it sure looks like the chains of unnecessary debt over peoples lives had been broken......… somehow or another...… by somebody?!


    http://www.near-death.com/storm.html#a04

    To a degree...… I am almost certain that a change in the way that we look at money..... will play a significant role in ushering in this rather utopian future?!

    http://www.politicalforum.com/opini...etary-policy-central-american-revolution.html

    Is it historically accurate that monetary policy was central to American Revolution?

    I like reading AA's posts, even if I disagree with some of them; he doesn't become a Mortal Enemy of people who disagree with him, which of course smacks of being an adult, a flawed taint that will sink him as a politician.

    As for his views on religion, once he finally grasps that most of his problems with Christian philosophy revolve around not being able to get past the anthropormophism common to writings in ancient times and intellectual obliviousness to the dualism and the levels of logic and sophistication in that religion he'll probably modify some of his opinions and mockery. F.A. Hayek's appendices to his book The Fatal Conceit might be an informative intro to those concepts, even as the book itself isn't that great.

    Well, actually what happened is the British East India Company almost went bankrupt, leaving England's government without a major source of income. Thsi in turn prompted the bizarre idea that the colonies should pay the costs for their own defense and protection of sea lanes, etc., which course led to various schemes to tax them after a long period of benign neglect by the Crown; not an unreasonable idea, but somehow 'evil' to the minds of colonial smugglers and land speculators.

    It turn out badly for England, for those who don't know, probably a lot of posters here ...

    From what I have read about the history of what happened.......... I think that we Canadians need to admit that our ancestors were terribly under informed about the issues or we would have approached the American Revolution quite differently.

    http://www.christianforums.com/t7653888/


    An apology to all Americans from a Canadian, and a thank you!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Some of my ancestors were Masons from Dixie who came to Country Harbour, Nova Scotia at the time of the American Revolution. I deeply appreciate the fact that so many Americans were closer to God than we Canadians tend to be and somehow your leaders were guided to not persecute us!


    I also wish to apologize for the fact that the leadership of my nation was less guided by the Holy Spirit and we did not understand how the independence of America was comparable to the division of the Northern Kingdom of Israel from the Southern Kingdom of Judah at the time of King Rehoboam the son of Solomon.

    I also wish to apologize for our elitism because it has been playing a significant role in your economic crash of 2008. If a higher percentage of Americans understood the full implications of truly wise monetary policy the world would begin to look quite different indeed!
