Could Mitt Romney be the Best Candidate For President to Unite the Republican GOP?

Why Romney may be the Best thing for the Republican Party!Lds_temple_utah

Mitt Romney has been running and running hard in this election so far. The press and the media have constantly made it clear that they don’t think that Romney can get the nomination. Currently he has the most delegates in the early races. Romney makes the racing analogy going with his references to silver and gold medals. No doubt a Not So Subtle reminder of the Utah Olympic mess that Romney cleaned up.

2002_winter_olympics_logo

The point being Romney is out there every day running and trying in the states many of the other candidates are not even showing up in. In a world of 24  hour news and live bloggers, people like Rudy Giuliani are so out of the public dialog that you may think that was a different election that Rudy was in! NOT Romney. He is running in the race.

The press goes on to say, that he is running like that because he has the finances to keep doing it! Touche. Money makes the world go round! Yet as money and the economy become the most important issue to the electorate, we start to wonder why Romney is not taken more seriously.

For the last few weeks we have been seeing Mitt Romney with no tie and his sleeves rolled up. We are probably going to see a lot more businessman attire from now on. The major asset Romney has is his financial background. Yet he still is not getting the general support of the GOP. Why?

Mitt Romney is a Mormon. The issue of the evangelicals has become a major factor in the GOP. It is the reason why Huckabee is currently doing so well. For Mitt Romney, it has been the underlying doubt that continues to plague him. He has tried to address the issue. Even having former President George Bush Senior, introduce him for that monumental address on religion.

If you look at the current cast of the Republican Party, you do not find a very good candidate with Christian Values. Here is where the rub is! Mormons aren’t Christians.

Shooshhh…

Yet if we look at Mitt Romney’s positions on many of the social issues that are important to evangelicals, the Mormons share those same religious conservative values. Being a Muslim, I can easily say that Muslims share many of the conservative values. Issues such as those relating to abortion, and family values, or the homosexual agenda are areas of commonality between these groups.

Mitt Romney is a good candidate when it comes to executive ability, and when it comes to personal character, or family values. So the issue of his specific faith is what causes the evangelical right to stay away. Bigotry? As a Muslim in America, I feel Romney’s pain. Not that he feels mine!

Romney can unite the GOP in a strange way because he would have the support of financial upper class republicans and would also appeal to the social values of the conservatives. While being able to stay away from the negative extremist evangelical image of the “old” GOP. Has the Republican Party "EVOLVED" enough to accept a Mormon?

What does Romney do moving forward? As much as he can he has to promote new ides and programs. He should easily be able to talk about the ways to financially stimulate the US economy. He should be able to come up with new ideas to reveal along the campaign. Actual programs to promote to the financial growth of the country.

As to the national security concerns he has to take a very responsible position towards conflict resolution, economic trade and business development over seas. He can not run against McCain as the military wing of the Republican nominees. He has to continue to remain hard on terrorism, while toning back his rhetoric on Jihadism or Islamism. He has to be willing to talk about returning to the George Bush Senior foreign policy.

But without saying George Bush!

Could Mitt Romney be the best candidate to unite the Republican Party? I have a hard time not admiring everything that Patrick Buchanan ever says. With his sister Bay Buchanan being highly involved in the Mitt Romney campaign and the entire personal funds Romney has committed with, I would not bet against him!

He really does look like he came from "Central Casting"

Could Mitt Romney be the Best Candidate For President to Unite the Republican GOP?

POP-Culture Monday where we will discuss ASSASSIN’S CREED.

To become a true Assassin you must "Follow the Creed".

All of us watched as a political leader was assassinated last week in Pakistan. The assassination of Benazir Bhutto is being discussed by analysts and the general public alike all over the world.

We hear the term assassin so often in the War on Terror that it has become common place. In the new accepted view of how wars are to be fought, is the assassination of political targets a viable just cause. Where does Islam stand on assassination?

Microsoft XBOX 360 and Playstation fans have been enjoying a new game called Assassin's Creed. The game reveals the story of Al-Tair and his missions as an assassin during the time of the Christian crusades.

If you are a fan of the game or interested in the history of the Hashashin, then call into the show and share your thoughts!

To become a true Assassin you must Follow the Creed.

Take a Leap of Faith as we Talk about Islam.

The War on Terror in Pakistan after Benazir Bhutto Assassination: US Foreign Policy

After Midnight With Rick Barber (PODCAST)
Many people are asking how we handle the War on Terror in Pakistan after the assassination of Benazir Bhutto.

The west looked like they were about to support Bhutto in full swing. All respect of Pervez Musharraf the former ally in the War on Terror was gone. With THE General declaring de facto Marshall Law in the last few months it was hard to show sympathy for his cause anymore.

Who is our "Ally" in Pakistan currently. Was it the girl that we came to the dance with?

After 9/11 we forced Musharraf to be our Ally. He accepted !

He did not want to go into the tribal areas for us and round up all the "Usual Suspects", but he was keeping things fairly calm in a destabilized part of the world, while the US Ally was engaged in endless battle in Afghanistan and Iraq.

As soon as another girl walked into the dance, we dropped Musharraf like an old HAG and went for the new Girl!
Prom_date_banner
But, Wait...the new Girl, was the old Girl.

And she was not even that good the last time.

Maybe we should have stayed with the Girl that we started this dance with...?

Benazir Bhutto Assassination: Pakistan and the US War on Terror

New Shows Starting Monday January 7th 2008

Call Live: 310-984-7600 or 631-247-9003 Code # 232885

For weeks on the HotConflict radio Show I have been discussing the situation in Pakistan.

You can check out our PAST Podcast archive and see that Pakistan has been extensively covered.

Bhutto_benazir_2 Today there has been talk that the upcoming elections will probably not happen.
After the death of Benazir Bhutto her 19 year old son Bilawal will take over as the leader of the party.
Again this looks like the continuation of a Bhutto dynasty  of the Peoples Party of Pakistan PPP.

There are all kinds of extremists who are taking credit fro the assassination of Bhutto. From Al-Qaeda to local political revolutionaries.


Was Pervez Musharraf involved in the assassination or just an indirect beneficiary?

Was the support of the Western Nations for a new election run by Benazir Bhutto too aggressive a political move? Apparently someone in Pakistan agrees and has killed Bhutto to make the point!

How should America proceed?

Listen to the conversation between myself and Jack Blood on Deadline Live News just after the former Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto was assassinated.

Saleem Siddiqui on Deadline News Live

Jack_blood_intro

Jack Blood and his radio show Deadline Live go against this trend. Jack Blood is on a crusade of his own. To remove the veil of ignorance and increase his audience with the light of knowledge. The motto of his show is to "Take the Red Pill", a Matrix movie reference. Those who take the red pill are people willing to face the Truth of Reality.

Contrary to original reports there appears to have been two assassins. A trigger man and a person charged with carrying out explosives detonation.

One of the most interesting issues that always is a matter of debate is the role of Angels in society.

Common to all major religion is the idea that the Lord Almighty has sent Angels to communicate with mankind. Muslim believe that there is only One God. We call him by the name Allah and he is the same God of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Jesus, and all the prophets from the Lord.

We know that Gabriel the Angel came to reveal the Quran to the Prophet Muhammed, the last messenger of God.

Listen to this conversation about Angels from and Islamic point of view.

Attraction and Seduction: Muslim Girls Dating Marriage with Christian Jews White Boys

Seduction and Peacock Theory in Islam

One of the Most common concerns is that Muslims are perceived to treat their women poorly. Although it may be true that the conditions of women in many, if not all Muslim countries is terrible, it is not because of Islam that the condition exists.

The role of the mother in the Islamic society which ties in directly to the role of women and the place of social interaction is a complex issue.

Here I talk about the ideas related to new self help concepts.Romance_shadows


  • Laws of Attraction
  • Art of Seduction
  • The Game
  • The Pick Up Artist PUA


VH-1 has recently done a reality show titled The Pick Up Artist with Mystery as the host.

Romance as a part of the natural interaction between the sexes is discussed in Islam. Recently there has been a religious element in the Muslim community who have led the general public to believe that affection and romance are not part of the Muslim vernacular. This is not true.

Romance is the Sunnah

Here in the west the divorce rates amongst Muslim couples is starting to increase, becoming similar to the general majority. The long term ramifications to the foundation of family upbringing for the next generation will have substantial consequences.

How do Muslim Men learn to become REAL MEN and not boys?
