Sesame Street: Share It Maybe
At least -- in some media coverage -- Obama's facial expression seemed more innocent and candid. Meanwhile, in my childlike faith I see Mitt Romney's face is like the "devil's" face. When he raised his fingers, it seemed there were very sharp red nails, like a fire burning there, seen also from his eyes, his gestures, and the wrinkles at his mouth corner.
Sorry if I'm wrong in seeing. I bet with my partner, the U.S -- in the hands of any president, Obama or Romney is just the same -- should "bear" its karma in the past year. If my conjecture is correct, we'll get married after I give birth to our baby. If it's wrong, I'll put my wishes inhishis command.

There is information that in Libya, (with government support, specialized training centers for Syrian revolutionaries) these people were sent to Syria to attack the legitimate government. It's really not acceptable, in accordance with all legal standards. This activity will undermine the stability in the Middle East. I begin to think that terrorists are now in Syria. My question is, Has the export of revolution turned into the export of terrorism? I'm not asking you to think about all this, Amerika!
This topic has been published in my previous note. RT 12 July 2012 , but if we make a note here, we are limited by the number of characters. Full. So, I added it in a new note today.
Salafis now also want a halal tourism, with the women are ordered to dress conservatively and no alcohol. Salafis also want to separate the beaches for women and men. Tourism bring in foreign exchange of 11% of Egypt's $ 218 billion GDP. Hotel and resort occupancy rate has been reduced from previous 90% to 15% now. This is bad news for the 3 million people who depend on Egypt to 14 million tourists who come to Egypt every year.
The most critical effect is received by the Egyptian and millions of citizens who depend on their livelihood from the tourist, and another possibility is the distrust and discontent of the Egyptian Muslim to Islamic parties, Islamic leaders or Islamic clerics.
Mmm... Mohamed Morsi, please be careful. Coptic Egypt is also currently feel marginalized by the United States because they thought there were sectarian division, just because the U.S. chose to meet Muslim Brotherhood and Salafi groups first, before asking to meet the Copts. Currently the Egyptian Copts also have formed the Christian Brotherhood.

(CZ-lacalifusa072012)
Jan Pepijn Servaas and Adriaan Zef like this.
Adriaan Zef : Hey I just met you and this is crazy but here's my number, so call me maybe?
Jan Pepijn Servaas : As a challenger, it's not easy for Romney to beat Obama. Romney has to work harder, he also must be able to show the public that he is a qualified candidate to become the next U.S. president. His weakness is his statements that often attack Obama frontally. It is becoming a big problem for Romney, because each side reactions can be different, and it has been shown in your opinion, that for you, his face was like a demon when he was in the campaign.
Adriaan Zef : Actually, the opportunity for Romney to beat Obama can be even greater if he is able to capitalize on the economic issues that become the crucial issue for Obama, but Romney has to be careful because the issue can also be dropped himself. Economic issue is a very sensitive issue. Believe me dude, she does not like them both. She's just little bit of sympathy because Obama can say As-Salamu Alaykum for the Muslims, though she believes that a well trained parrot can also say it.
Jan Pepijn Servaas : I just imagine, what if the election is conducted freely, fairly and honestly, but in it there is a game, engineering, and even the manipulation of an election victory for a candidate?
Adriaan Zef : For me the election is not an extraordinary political event, especially in a country that holds the advanced democracy. In the minimalist theory of democracy (Schumpeterian) the election is the arena which embodies the competition (contestation) to take power; the people's political participation and liberalization of civil rights and political community. But it is often becomes a wonderful thing if it happens in a country that has just come out of the authoritarian phase and still in a transition phase, as in Russia in 1996. There were some interesting things to be observed, especially with the involvement of three Americans who became Boris Yeltsin's campaign consultants. There were an internalization of the American-style campaigning tricks, this is also called the phony American tricks, such as Boris Yeltsin in the behavior of the main campaign. When he was dancing, visiting clergy, holding a child, and smiling to the public, it was felt as his American style. Our television was broadcasting it widely. So it could be called, this was the democracy style, especially in the campaigns and political communication. That is the American style that emphasizes the openness, maximizing the competition and by utilizing the media.
Jan Pepijn Servaas : In my opinion, the presidential election in 1996 in Russia was relatively successful and it becomes an important step towards the institutionalization of electoral competition, although it can also be viewed more as a way to avoid a political disaster rather than as an important achievement of political freedom.
Adriaan Zef : Sorry, it's almost morning, my fiancee will wake up soon. After all, every time we talk about Russia with her, I had promised myself. I should relent. She is my fiancee. I really love her and I should give in, for the sake of our baby.
Okay, happy weekend to you.
Astrid Adrienne : BB, lately I feel you are getting to understand me. But you should remember one thing, as usual, after I read all of your sentence, I'd still be looking for what you never write here or everywhere. You'll write it on our bathroom walls maybe?
I love you, Mr. Alwayswantstocallerinandrews, maybe? ... but one thing that should not be overlooked is how the media, especially when our television was showing the poll between Yeltsin which is considered as a representation of democracy dealing with Zyuganov, the Communist representation.
Another interesting side is how the campaign team works and meets the lower social classes to get closer to the citizens of the candidate. This shows how a small team, commanded by Vasso, moving to the grass roots to explore and map the affairs of society. This is seen when a small team comes to the farming community. In a small forum is revealed how a group of farmers, for example, are not so concerned with the land, but what they really want is peace, and turn up an interesting question from one of the farmers, "We are afraid. If the Communists win, there will be civil war between the rich and the poor."
Adriaan Zef : No honey, I'm not interested in her at all. Erin Andrews is not my type. I'm more interested in some of your confidential phone numbers. Well, really I'm kind of curious, but never mind. More than storing all the little secret between us, I'm more interested to always trust you and love you. I love you. To me, Yeltsin's statement, via Tattiana, if he himself couldn't win the presidential elections, then democracy would be threatened its sustainability, implying the desire to perpetuate power. It was one of the reasons why the three American political consultants were brought. What has been done by Yeltsin and his campaign team, for me it's a positive contribution to democracy in Russia. The Engineering that had been done in the end led to the dialectic between American-style democracy and a democracy as envisaged by the Russians. This was so noticeable when Joe et al., "taught" how they should utilize the media as political communication, they visited the people who were still floating, approached the community with a desire as to what was desired by them, and talking with residents with a full stomach, they did not speak with an empty stomach. The latter was necessarily implying the existence of a campaign that didn't ignore the reality of Russian society who was still plagued by poverty.
