BEST PAIR OF HANDS, THE CLINTONS: “A SECOND TIME IN THE WHITE HOUSE”

This is a story I want to write and tell in mid-November on the road of the Clintons to the white house, for the second time, a historic moment in the politics of the United states: a reward for hard work, which as embedded in what being truly American means; hard work rewards handsomely in the land of opportunity, the United States of America. If you have been following closely, I have said it many times and I will say it again, Mrs. Clinton’s presidency is a historical milestone—it is one I pray to see and I am with high hopes that the intuition I have at the back of my mind is correct, she will make history even with the landslide win against the Donald.

In an article I came across on the internet recently, Snoop Dogg puts it in the best way ever: “You know I like to be politically correct, but sometimes I’m politically incorrect; but I will say that I would love to see a woman in office because I feel like we’re at that stage in life to where we need perspective other than the male’s train of thought. And just to have a woman speaking from a global perspective as far as representing America, I’d love to see that. So I’ll be voting for Mrs. Clinton

The raw facts are that yes, Mrs. Clinton is by far the most qualified candidate to ever run for the biggest office of the United States. Just before President Obama joined Hillary Clinton on the trail in North Carolina, Josh Earnest; the White House Press secretary remarked: “the focus of President Obama’s remarks in Charlotte will be on Secretary Clinton and in his view that she has the character, the toughness, skills and experience to succeed him as president of the United States”. And reminding us of what Donald Trump stands for, as President Obama said earlier in Canada: “someone who has never shown any regard for workers, has never thought on behalf of social justice issues

While in Charlotte, President Obama did endorse Donald Trump for the job he is fit for and the phenomenal Hillary Clinton for the job she is going to do so well. President Obama, while not mentioning names said that being president is not some job for TV reality show but a job for president of the united states (he has emphasized this over time and you need to pay attention).Honestly, the unfiltered behavior Donald Trump has displayed make him a perfect fit except for one; a competitor at comedy central that Kevin Hart and Chris Rock may have found. The good news is that he may not have the nerve to pick himself up after the insurmountable defeat on his way in November.

An endorsement that speaks for itself, President Obama’s rock-solid endorsement.

To be endorsed by a President whose approval rates are above 50 percent, yet that man has met pitch 8 obstructionism(from republicans) from day one as I earlier wrote is one of the greatest assets any candidate running to be successor would pride in, Hillary Clinton is a very blessed woman. While in Charlotte, President Obama said these words very eloquently (as we all do his unmatched oratory abilities): 


I came down to Charlotte today because I believe in Hillary, and I am asking you to have her back in November. This election isn’t really a choice between left and right or the Democratic or Republican. This is a choice between whether we are going to cling to some imaginary past or move into the future. This is about whether we have America that works for everybody, or just those at the top. Hillary has been fighting for years—fighting for working families and the kids, and fighting to make sure everybody in this country has a fair shot (and she has got the scars to prove it).She believes that America’s future is ours to shape, and she’s got what it takes to lead us forward .She understands that we make our own destiny, and that we are always the strongest together. I couldn’t agree more. And that’s why I am with her”.

In the recent article on the blog, MY AMERICAN JOURNEY, where I envision a Hillary Clinton presidency as the last ounce of hope—because of the nightmarish reality that tags along a Donald Trump presidency, I was crystal clear; as so many have emphatically said and as Hillary Clintons message of a united path goes, America is stronger as one (STRONGER TOGETHER), thanks to you President Obama for that wonderful emphasis.

If there is something that I have failed to understand, it is whether the people that deny Hillary Clinton’s achievements as having been on the fight are just being willfully ignorant or just fantastically stupid; I have reached a conclusion as my liberating experience: “they are completely, all the above, of the afore-mentioned”. Because: Mrs. Clinton has been in the trenches fighting for women, children and justice for all. Back in 1995(I was 6 years old then), Donald Trump and most of his followers must have been 15times or older, Hillary Clinton while delivering remarks to UN 4th World conference on Women Plenary session; on September 5th, in Beijing China didn’t mince words saying, I will paraphrase: “let me clear. Freedom means the right to assemble, organize and debate openly. It means respecting the views of those who may disagree with the views of their governments, it means not taking citizens away from their loved ones and jailing them, mistreating them or denying their freedom or dignity because of the expression of ideas and opinions”. I have had the luxury of reading the History books, Bill and Hillary Clinton memoirs, the best 1000 greatest speeches of all time(from American Rhetoric) and a zillion newspaper and blog articles—I can profoundly say that she has earned it, being the Democratic nominee and with enormous hope, the 45th President of the united states.

As an air of finality, I will end with the words from Vice President, go out there and do the right thing at the voting booth and vote the right person to the job—the 45th President, former first lady of a very successful President Bill Clinton; former successful New York senator; former successful secretary of state and the historic first female POTUS:put it more accurately,the best pair of hands America will ever be placed into.

We were eight Years in Power, a legacy adored.

When I wrote the memoir for my role model , President Obama and his beautiful family, I thought I was saying bye with tears of joy and I wouldn’t be tempted to write anything again before I met him in person—well, I was so wrong, I have since written many pieces where his legendary name surfaces as a re-enforcer to my points [remember, as Mrs. Clinton said recently while delivering her acceptance speech , he is the ‘explainer in chief’]. The beautiful first family:Photo taken off the web What I have learned from this great man and his phenomenal wife, FLOTUS Michelle Obama, is absolutely beyond description: all I can say is that it makes me wake up each day with morale to work hard and one day inspire people like these two have inspired my person over the years. Yes, I have learned over the years that good deeds are contagious—we either do and write about them or live by them our entire lives.That maybe the greatest riddle of our time is the unforgettable question from the iconic

Grab him by the ballot

Morality can be so interesting to watch when a very immoral person like Donald Trump is playing the morality police. It has been a turn of events since the last debate —when the Donald learned he was losing terribly, he resorted to the final deep end drive into the conquest for the bottom of the barrel—his campaign has been always about impure rhetoric but this time, he didn’t pretend for a second, what I don’t understand though is why a man would pride in being remembered for the creepiest things ever said for a man as old as 70 years. I have seen the very big hypocrites of the republican party ditch their party leader on the side of the road albeit I can’t fathom why and how they stood on his side this long—if there’s one sure thing, putting up with the stupidity that tags along being in the Donald’s cult is a twenty four-hour exercise equivalence, it’s a very tough place to be: full of vile utterances and always denying facts even understood by a five year old.

Hillary Clinton is Presidential

I want to begin with what Donald said about Hillary as he openly endorsed her for the job: “she is a fighter and she never quits, I admire that about her”. The last many three decades of the republican witch-hunt on the Clinton family have molded the incoming 45th of the United States, Hillary Clinton: she and her husband have been through the fire but have still soared so high, proof positive that nothing baffles the achemes of the enemy like a composed soul. Being a Clinton maybe hard but might as well be one of the most rewarding experiences in self-composure and self-discovery. As I said in the first debate commentary ; for those who had doubts, she mopped the floor with an ignorant bigot—she did it again and we are proud of her. The last couple of days have been filled with the most sickening news of the republican flag bearer’s advice; “Grab their p***y”; seeing many republicans un-endorse their nominee and billions of people around the world have the republican party for

When they go low, we go high.

T his wallpaper and I almost fought a duel to point of death, to take over on my phone and laptop screen saver space, but I had to give up very easily because these beautiful words come from one of the most inspirational people in my life . President Obama you are a very blessed man, no wonder you immediately proudly tweeted: “ incredible speech by an incredible woman.Couldn't be more proud and our country has been blessed to have her as FLOTUS.I love you, Michelle ”. Michelle Obama stole the show, rather perfectly it turns out—and then there was Sen.Booker,they certainly had to be prime speakers, leave alone for Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Bernie Sanders who never minces words when it comes to putting Donald Trump in his place. I have waited for this day, almost very impatiently, until it dawned—it was a very rewarding night for me here in Uganda after the continuous and disastrous bigotry from the Trump camp. I must say with pride that if there is anything

Hillary Clinton is certainly prepared to be President

President Obama & Sec Clinton having a chit-chat T he Question of whether she is the most qualified candidate America has ever had for a presidential candidate has never been so answered; for those who had doubts, she came to stage and spoke it with illustration(s), verve and swagger throughout the 90 minutes of the debate at Hofstra University. She eloquently made it clear to her opponent that not only did she prepare for the debate, that her opponent seemed to have been so yappy about; but also proved and lived to the hype of what was expected of her: she mopped the floor with the Donald, I have never laughed so loud, at an ignorant bigot being thumped by an intelligent woman.

IN DEFENSE OF Dr. KIIZA BESIGYE: Andrew Mwenda, Lets PUT THIS TO BED, at ONCE!

In the TV Series, REVENGE, Chronicling the life of a Distraught Emily Thorne: SEASON 1, EPISODE 7 "Charade”, As Hamlet said to Ophelia, "God has given you one face and you make yourself another." The battle between these two halves of identity who we are and who we pretend to be is unwinnable. (This is referring to Shakespeare's famous tragedy Hamlet. These words are said to Ophelia, Hamlet's girlfriend, in anger and frustration). Just as there are two sides to every story, there are two sides to every person. One that we reveal to the world and another we keep hidden inside. A duality governed by the balance of light and darkness. Within each of us is the capacity for both good and evil. But those of us who are able to blur the moral dividing line hold the true power.

Barack . H. Obama, the Lasting Imprint.

I may never be the President of the United States or even my country, Uganda , but I am going to die one day and when I am no longer here, my son and those that read about my name should know that President Obama & Michelle have inspired my person, a lot. I was reading Christopher Hitchens book, Mortality, a while ago and reviews of his memoir, Hitchens 22 , these words really touched me a lot: “ I have more than once woken up feeling like death. But nothing prepared me for the early morning in June when I came to consciousness feeling as If I were shackled to my own corpse ”—he goes on to quote Saul Bellow : “ Death is the dark backing that a mirror needs if we are able to see anything ”. I told my surrogate mother, Tabitha Scaife , I would do this before I leave the face of the earth and she said, “ Do it sonny, I believe you are very well equipped ”. Ma, thanks for elevating my confidence . Love you, to Life!

ENVISIONING PRESIDENT HILLARY CLINTON: “THE BARACK-HILLARY LEGACY”

Photo source: daily dot I am deeply honored to be telling the vision that has since been on my mind for a while in the most possible way I have ever imagined. I have wracked my mind how best I would tell it; it was not until I was admiringly looking at Mrs. Clinton’s photos  recently and I got the picture (above) that would best tell what I envision in the Presidency of the first female President of the United States, Hillary Rodham Clinton . As I have noted time and again, if there is anything that I admire about President Obama and Mrs. Clinton among the very many things, it’s their authentic selves—especially in the realm of political maturity , for purposes of this article. As I noted earlier in the road to President Hillary Clinton , her resilience is certainly a thing anyone in the world would admire, she is indeed is a fighter—“fighting for us, we are stronger together”, do those words ring a bell? By now they should be the words every sane American has subscrib

Dear President Obama, thank you for being.

Dear President Obama,  I greet you in the name above all names. I waited to write to you my second letter after your final SOTU (state of the union) address not as my last letter to you but as a letter of appreciation for the almost concluded two terms of office .Allow me to first express how so humbled to write to a man whose name has been engraved upon the marble of history. I have fortunately had a few days to prepare otherwise I would make very terrible sentences herein. Again, I am lucky to address a man whose kindred spirit is ingrained in equality and the pursuit of happiness. The last time I wrote to you, I critiqued you. Today, I have very deep gratitude for how fundamentally influential you are and will forever be to my Life and I pray to the life of my descendants. I remember well, in the 2007 democratic primaries that shaped the arc of history of the American Dream, I didn’t support you then.Actually,apart from the inescapable thing we have in common,blackness,I
