Hillary (Hilldog) Clinton



I hate American Politics. Fact. It's not really democracy, and the winner is the person with the most money for advertising. It makes me sick.

This is what life boils down to: a popularity contest. Based on manipulating people using propaganda about yourself; using clothes, flyers, slogans, cars etc.

Anyway.

I read today that Hilldog Clinton has threatened to pulverise Iran if they launch a nuclear attack on Israel.

The terminology she used to describe such an event and act is disgusting, disgraceful and clearly only used to get the republican vote.

What makes me even more mad/sick is the fact that we have to hear about it; that the United States has interfered so much in everyone else's business, to the extent, that we all dread who will be elected, that we are all put in a position that we care. This should not be the case.

However; I read somewhere, I'm not entirely sure where, about the simple fact that no one can stay on top forever. The article was predicting the rise of India, China and the rest of the Asian world. I think they are the next contenders for the top.

Britain was once Great (now it's just Britain regardless of its outdated GB title), the USA believes itself to be currently great and forced itself on everyone else. But soon China will rise up and take the lead (if America don't pulverise them because of their lack of democracy). It's just like McDonalds and Coca-Cola. They are no longer on top. They won't be around forever. Greatness comes before a fall. I suppose the Buddhists call that Karma.

So, has anyone started brushing up on their Chinese language skills? All 7,000 dialects?
