BERNIE AND JEREMY / A NEW WORLD ORDER BASED ON PEOPLE POWER







 




 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

“The problems we face, did not come down from the heavens. They are made, they are made by bad human decisions, and good human decisions can change them.”
~ Bernie Sanders


 
There is a reason that Bernie Sanders has surged ahead in the Presidential Primary Polls and that Britain's Jeremy Corbyn has done the same thing in the UK ~ it's people power and it won't be stopped. The honesty of Bernie Sanders is a lifeboat in a sea of political deception and lost hope and soon he will be joined by the UK's Jeremy Corbyn as a worldwide counter balance to corporate power and the elite 1 percent as well as a genuine reflection of a new world order based on people power: Allen L Roland, PhD

 

 As I wrote in VT in May of 2015 ~ Admit it, most of us know the political system is rigged, that most Americans have been marginalized and silenced by a growing plutocracy and that corporations are now firmly in control, that a truly honest politician is an oxymoron, that is until now ~ Bernie Sanders is a lifeboat in a sea of political deception and lost hope. Bernie is an honest Independent politician who cares enough now in 2015 to become a Democrat, run against Hillary and the other political pretenders of both parties for the presidency and who knows ~ A Sanders/Warren ticket just may ride a building progressive wave of Hope that is still waiting to crest and has now spread to the UK with the election of Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn. See May VT Post / http://www.veteranstoday.com/2015/05/02/give-em-hell-bernie-the-game-is-on/

 
As I mentioned in my VT post, Bernie has my support and you may call me a dreamer but as John Lennon once sang ~ I'm not the only one ~ and my dream team ticket is still a Sanders/Warren ticket for President riding a populist wave to victory in 2016.

 
In some ways, it's David versus Goliath but never underestimate the power of honesty and the truth ~ it can change the world but Hillary and her rapidly crumbling corporate machine is no longer an entitled Goliath but instead a politically weakened dinosaur.

 
Without a single TV ad ~ or a single congressional endorsement ~ Sanders has exposed the weakness of the party’s Clintonian establishment while at the same time spotlighting its hunger for an ideological saviour. Polls now indicate that if the nominating contests were held tomorrow, Sanders would edge out Clinton in Iowa and beat her in New Hampshire by atleast 10 points. Nationally, he has cut Clinton’s lead from an impregnable 46 points to a rapidly disappearing 21 points in just two months.

A few days after announcing his candidacy, Bernie told a reporter “I think people should be a little bit careful underestimating me,” and I most certainly am not making that mistake with Bernie Sanders ~ but I would now add that these days no one is underestimating Bernie and many are finally taking notice and are obviously getting involved.

 
HERE ARE THE OTHER REPUBLICAN CHOICES

 
My favorite quote about the recent Republican debates is from Ralph Nader ~ "If the Republican Party’s early primary campaigns for the presidential nomination had an elephant and a clown car, Ringling Brothers would be in trouble."

 
It is war profits that drive Republican war hawks as evidenced in their last debate: Here are Col. Lawrence Wilkerson's candid remarks (Real News) on the last GOP debate as Wilkerson and Paul Jay discuss the war mongering talk of star of the moment, Carly Fiorina, and most of the other GOP candidates ~ who all clearly demonstrate that our Democracy is dying and that none of these clowns are electable. Must see if only to hear the tough truth from Wilkerson about our sad political state ~ 17 minute videohttp://therealnews.com/t2/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=74&jumival=14745

 
Without a doubt, the most disingenuous statement mentioned in that circus of Republican Presidential imbeciles is Jeb Bush's statement that his brother George W "kept us safe on 9/11" ~ which is as far from the truth as the official 9/11 report.

 
As Kay Steiger writes in RSN (No Jeb, Your Brother did not Keep us Safe) ~ " Much of the analysis following the World Trade Center attacks revealed that the Bush administration ignored warnings that such a plot could be in the works. Declassified documents indicate that Osama bin Laden had been planning the attacks for years. But rather than preparing for potential terrorist attacks, reports indicated that the Bush administration was more focused on missile defense…. most evidence indicates that the war in Iraq was dangerously misguided. The Iraq war wasn’t linked to the attacks on U.S. soil, and a 2006 intelligence report indicated that the U.S. presence in Iraq actually worsened the threat of terrorism. Ultimately, nearly 5,000 American troops and other allied troops gave their lives during the war in Iraq."


 
John Dean calls 9/11 worse than Watergate and correctly identified Cheney as the chief villain ~ "9/11 was a perfect storm, a moment they had anticipated when looking earlier for a catalyst necessary to accomplish their broader (PNAC) Neocon goals "....."Cheney's persuasiveness behind closed doors, one on one, is legendary. With a rookie in national security matters, like Bush, Cheney can be both a Svengali and a Rasputin......With Bush and Cheney, not only is Cheney the senior partner, he is prime minister".

 
NOW THERE'S BERNIE AND JEREMY

 
Chris Hedges correctly gauges the political significance of Jeremy Corbyn in ICH: "The politics of Jeremy Corbyn, elected by a landslide Saturday to lead Britain’s Labour Party after its defeat at the polls last May, are part of the global revolt against corporate tyranny. He had spent his long career as a pariah within his country’s political establishment. But because he held fast to the socialist ideals that defined the old Labour Party, he has risen untarnished out of the ash heap of neoliberalism. His integrity, as well as his fearlessness, offers a lesson to America’s self-identified left, which is long on rhetoric and preoccupied with accommodating the power elites ~ especially those in the Democratic Party ~ and very short on courage." See article ~ http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article42852.htm

Sounds a lot like Bernie Sanders and watch as Corbyn slowly replaces the infamous and thoroughly discredited Tony Blair as the potential Prime Minister and voice of the British people in 2020.

Labour Party economic adviser John Weeks discusses Corbyn's economic policy, his new shadow cabinet, and his first act as the leader of the Labour Party to address the #EuropeSaysWelcome: European Day of Action for Refugees. See interview ~ http://therealnews.com/t2/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=74&jumival=14714

 




 

 
 
 
 
 
"I think to bring about a peace process you have to talk to people [with whom] you profoundly disagree. There is not going to any peace process unless there are talks involving Israel, Hezbollah and Hamas."  Jeremy Corbyn

 
Here's a very believable Jeremy Corbin being interviewed on British TV and watch the now visible shape of the future ~ causing much consternation from neoliberal Prime minister David Cameron. 14 minute video.


 
THE BIG PICTURE

 
As Chris Hedges correctly asserts ~ "Corbyn’s ascent to the head of the Labour Party has already triggered a backlash against him by the forces of the neoliberal political order. These forces are determined to prevent him from becoming prime minister. The entrenched elites within his own party ~ a number of whom have already resigned from party leadership positions in protest of Corbyn’s election ~ will seek to do to him what the Democratic establishment did in 1972 to George McGovern after he won the party’s nomination. The rhetoric of fear has already begun. Prime Minister David Cameron on Sunday tweeted: “The Labour Party is now a threat to our national security, our economic security and your family’s security.” This battle will be ugly"

 
This battle for power will indeed be ugly in the United States and Britain but battle tested Bernie and Jeremy are ready ~ for the worldwide populist dye is cast and Bernie Sanders and Jeremy Corbyn will eventually lead the way to a New World order based on people power versus corporate power and perhaps Justice will eventually be served.

The Vision Of America

THE VISION OF AMERICA

The vision of America must eventually be in line with the driving force of evolution ~ where mutual cooperation, altruism and service replace manipulation, greed and selfishness and we are once again in sync with our true divine destiny: Allen L Roland

During my monthly national radio show TRUTHTALK on Monday morning March 1st (
www.conscioustalk.net ) with Rob Spears and Brenda Michaels ~ we had an intense conversation on what is really needed to right our badly listing ship of state where virtually no one has confidence in our inexperienced Captain Obama, his staff of burned out Cinton and Bush leftovers and a crew of Congressional leaders who are selling favors to the highest corporate bidders.

Of course, We The People own this ship but we gave up our ownership many years ago when we let fear override that responsibility and the Cheney/Bush administration gutted its internal guidance system by shredding the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.This left our morally and fiscally bankrupt ship floundering on open seas and subject to giant swells of growing ridicule, abuse and disenchantment by its true owners ~ We The People.

So Brenda kept insisting we need a deeper vision besides tea parties, social movements and possible third parties and she was absolutely right !

To keep this ship afloat, we must ride the deep driving current of evolution whereas mutual cooperation, altruism and service replace manipulation, greed and selfishness and we are once again in sync with our true divine destiny.

Our task on this planet is to surrender to this same universal urge to unite and play our part in the great coming together of mankind ~ and it begins with each one of us surrendering to love, mutual cooperation and altruism versus hatred, separation and greed.

Richard Leakey wrote in " The beginnings of mankind " that there was very little evidence of violence and aggression in early mankind with considerable evidence of social cooperation and altruism as the deciding factors in evolution.

Scientific American said virtually the same thing in its issue The Arithmetic's of Mutual Help ( June 1995 ) where it shared how computer experiments show how cooperation rather than exploitation can dominate in the Darwinian struggle for survival . The article by Martin Nowak, Robert May and Karl Sigmund seems to reinforce Teilhard's Law of Complexity-Consciousness ~ " Throughout the evolutionary history of life, cooperation among smaller units led to the emergence of more complex structures as, for example, the emergence of multicellular creatures from single-celled organisms. In this sense, cooperation becomes as essential for evolution as is competition."

They conclude by saying ~ " In the course of evolution, there appears to have been ample opportunity for cooperation to have assisted everything from humans to molecules. In a sense, cooperation could be older than life itself. "

And what else could be older than life itself than LOVE, the universal urge to unite ~ or a
Unified Field of love and soul consciousness.

It could also be that the whole world is waiting for us to make this correction. That we have indeed become the rogue and out of control nuclear battleship that threatens not only mankind but the delicate equilibrium of the inanimate, vegetative and animate levels of nature and the consciousness of the planet.That the War on terror is actually our own War of terror and that WE are the true International terrorists who are holding up a rapidly approaching global shift in consciousness. When the assassination of individuals, identified as a threat to the security of the United States, are routinely executed in countries including Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and Yemen ~ we have set up rules that are directly contradictory to the rules of Nature.

What we also don't realize is that the Earth has its own set of rules. As B.E. Mahall and F.H. Bormann point out in their recent article ( same title ) in the LA Times ~ " Our view of nature is based on our human desire for more, and that economic model is broken."
They correctly point out that our anthropocentric ( regarding human kind as the center of existence ) economic model for interacting with the world " ignores and is proving to be incompatible with Earth's rules, and is therefore on a direct collision course with them ... To achieve a more accurate model of our relation to nature, we need to see ourselves as part of nature, governed by nature (not economics), beholden to nature for ecosystem services and subject to nature's disturbances." http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-mahall2-2010mar02,0,6899831.story

And I maintain that Earth's number one evolutionary rule, as I have pointed out, is mutual cooperation within an interdependent and loving plan.

In summary, we can no longer resist our innate universal urge to unite which is the principle property of the
Unified Field. And if we continue to resist this urge to unite, Nature will force us, through natural disasters such as earthquakes, weather catastrophes and climate change to make this leap in spirit, connection and consciousness.

The Vision of America is not in our arms and munitions but in our hearts. The Vision of America is not in our wealth but in our spirit. We can only right our sinking ship of state when we individually and collectively demand nothing less from both ourselves and our leaders. And any political leader understanding, living and carrying this evolutionary banner will lead America and the world to its divine destiny.

When The Power Of Love Overcomes The Love Of Power, Only Then We Will Have Peace ~ Jimmy Hendrix
