Live Breathe and Die

Republicans just don’t realize what is about to occur and the consequences will be devastating to the party. If John McCain does not win the presidency in November, there will never be another Republican president in the future of this country.

It would be easy to go on and on about how Barack Obama is not qualified to lead this country, how he will leave us vulnerable to future terrorist attacks and how his ideas are shallow and not grounded in critical thought, but that’s not even one percent of the problem.

In November, a portion of the millennial generation will vote. Nearly 100% of them will vote for Obama. This is not wild speculation, but is showing up in the result of polls and surveys. In the next few years, the remaining members of the millennial generation will be able to vote; they will vote Democrat.

Consider this; a whole generation of voters have been part of a massive social engineering experiment.
I hesitate to call it an experiment, because the results of an experiment are often unknown. In this case, the results are completely expected.

We have seen glimpses of this experiment in recent years as students in classrooms have recorded teachers on cell phones. The teachers frequently rant about the evils of the Republican Party, George Bush, Christians and Conservatives. We have seen this on cell phone videos and seen it on test questions. The teachers have gone unpunished.

Often times, this bias in the classroom is more subtle. It finds its way into discussions of history or economics or even English. It is intertwined into textbooks, the teacher’s off-hand remarks and lesson plans. As my brother discovered with his two daughters, it is even mixed in with homework assignments. It is pernicious and pervasive and day by day, it instills only one ideology.

It does not stop outside the classroom. The music industry totes a message that persuades listeners to consider a liberal ideology. The lyrics in songs and the premise of concerts all speak to a liberal mindset. Unlike previous generations, where hippies and anti-war protestors were part of the landscape, there were also more conservative young people with a different perspective. The ideological makeup of a whole generation is not divided into groups anymore, but instead is a cohesive group. They are a group who only have Democratic heroes.

The classroom and music industry do not have a monopoly. The best known pop stars and movie stars are increasingly political. It would be easy to point to the music acts and stars like Jane Fonda as examples of this in the 60’s and 70’s, but they remained in the minority. Few Motown artists sang about anti-American and anti-war themes. A few did, but it was not as universal as today. Folk singers have always sung about social injustice, but their audience did not extend to every young person at the time.

A seething eruption is about to occur in the next few years, and it may be seen for the first time in November. John McCain has a reputation as a maverick and not a strict party loyalist, but the Obama surrogates are already using the social engineering experiment to their benefit. They are carefully painting McCain as a conservative, a typical Republican, a warmonger and a Bush disciple. While this branding is not entirely accurate, it plays to the mindset of the Millennials like a hypnotist manipulates those in a hypnotic trance. Everything that they have heard since grade school is playing out in their minds. They can now vote and they will do as instructed.

Three recent congressional races were won by Democrats. At least one, in Mississippi, should have gone to the Republican. This is only the beginning. If John McCain wins and does a good job, he may be able to sway some voters in the Millennial generation. That would give the Republicans some opportunity in the following election, since there are still conservatives within the baby boom generation. If McCain loses, it’s all over. It won’t matter how Obama performs as president, because he will be forgiven and not scrutinized.

The minds of a generation have been successfully manipulated. The goal of the experiment will have worked and the results will leave our future in question. We may see a day in our future when there are no Republicans sent to Washington. No Republican members of congress and certainly no future presidents. The voice of a segment of the population will be effectively snuffed out. It is, even now.
