HILLARY-KAINE, THE WINNING TICKET: “STRAIGHT TO THE WHITE HOUSE”

In the American Journey piece, as for and by myself- in conjunction with Peri Harris and Owen Erima,we make our points rather vividly that anyone who isn’t averse to truth would find so much to learn. I will make it more articulate; with a supplement from Albert Einstein’s 1946 essay: Negroe Question. He wrote very powerful words in this masterpiece but I will pick a few for purposes of this article: “the more I feel American, the more the situation pains me; I can escape the feeling of complicity in it only by speaking out”. While announcing her running mate, Mrs. Clinton perfectly described who Sen. Tim Kaineis, in her own words:

“Tim is lifelong fighter for progressive causes and one of the most qualified vice presidential candidates in our nation’s history. But his credentials alone aren’t why I asked him to run a alongside me.Tim is a man of relentless optimism who believes that no problem is unsolvable if you’re willing to put in the work. That commitment to delivering results has stayed with him thought decades-long career as a public servant. I could give you a laundry list of things he accomplished as mayor of Richmond, governor of Virginia, and in the United States senate. But here is the most important: Tim has never taken a job for the glory or the title. He’s the same person whether the cameras are on or off, motivated by the belief that he can make a difference in people’s lives through public service”

I have waited for so many days looking forward to this day when Mrs. Clinton would make her pick for the running mate: until yesterday when the long list of very well-qualified candidates gave space to the Virginia senator, Sen. Tim Kaine. I must say very loudly that yes, by the choice of veep, you get to see what a presidential candidate really intends to do for the country. When Donald Trump made his pick, rumbling party unity, after the damage he has caused; I shuddered, rather seriously, it turns out. Pence’s experience is strictly on the shallow end of the pool and I don’t think he is awfully smart. Trump’s biggest talent; finding and then calling people insulting names, that’s not what presidency is about. Donald Trump is the personification of diarrhea-of-the mouth. He opens it and it flows: Disdain and contempt. I hereby profoundly say that as #TeamHillaryUganda, we are proud of Hillary’s choice. I have seen this work so many times; especially for the two American Administrations that I have closely paid attention to: the successful administration of President Bill Clinton and that of the 44^th president, President Barack Obama.

America is certainly going to be in better hands with the President Hillary Clinton Administration, compared to Donald Trump’s nightmare as he openly showed with his surrogate Veep pick, Mike Pence,[as you have read above] entwined with his scary acceptance speech: of course as confirmation that he is here for Fascism to reign. It’s so scary that a man who says he wants to ‘make America Great again’ (whatever that means) is the very existential threat to all there is that America stands for. Of course he will not have chances because American people are way better than choosing a bigot, a hero of scam, a male philanderer, a racist and annoyingly stupid ‘[old pampered child’. By the family tree I saw you recently; there is not just fear around this family but everything that can’t be in the white house.

President Obama last night didn’t hold back calling out Donald Trump while calling on America to keep Donald Trump away as far as they can: he is right because his administration has worked so hard to revamp America from the deep abyss it had been driven into eight years. In his very eloquent words, he said: “Globalization is a fact because of technology, because of an integrated global supply chain, because of changes in transportation, and we are not going to be able to build a wall around that. What we can do is to shape the how that process of integration proceeds so that it increases opportunities for ordinary people ,so its creating better jobs, so we are strengthening protections for workers,so we are addressing some of the environmental challenges that come with rapid growth”

As early as May 2nd 2014, Sen. Tim Kaine vouched to launch Hillary Clinton to the white House. For so many of us that have paid attention to what President Obama has achieved—while looking at who can keep the legacy and do greater things, we have no remorse seeing Hillary Clinton in the white house for the second time, but as commander in chief this time: making history, as first female president of the United States.Sen Kaine said words that profoundly resonate with what I wrote the second time firmly saying Hillary Clinton will do the job. He said:

“In 2006, nearly two years ago before the presidential election, I told my friend, then-senator Barack, that I would support him if he ran for Presidency. I was and I am proud that I was one of his first supporters. I made my decision early because I knew something: He was the right person for the job, but getting there would be hard. And sooner I started helping, the more helpful it would be. Today I’m announcing my support for the same reason. If she decides to run-and I hope she will-she is by far the best candidate we could ask to be our 45^thpresident, a classic American optimist with the background and experience necessary to lead this country in a very complicated world. I will be starting my fifth year in the senate on inauguration Day 2017, and she is the partner I know I’ll want to be working with in the white house on all fronts”

Hillary Clinton did say that she agrees with sen.Ted Cruz, a recent republican presidential candidate who has out rightly called out Trump to what he stands, in total agreement: “vote your conscience”. A lot has been said about Hillary Clinton already; how she is the most qualified candidate—to the very next president of the United States, all left for us to do is to go the voting booth and win this election massively. The Veep pick is done and is a very solid pick. God bless America and the whole world.

We were eight Years in Power, a legacy adored.

When I wrote a piece 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 iconi...

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 subs...

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,blacknes...
