So long as the American people are given BRead and the Circus they will be happy children....Americans have grown apathetic with the Political process they see it just as more of the same regardless of who gets into power....in a sense the System has taken over and codified the political process....nobody from outside the system can be elected to High Office...the weeding out process is vicious...Howard Dean is the latest casuality...remember ole Jesse Jackson....
Make no mistake the US government /system knows very well how to use Soft Power.....Even though it's unbelieveable to some people the Bush Administration operates more with soft power than hard power...the proof is how the administration handled Afganistan...with the use of less than 200 ground troops and some airpower....the Bush administration overthrew a government in less than 2 months... they got Pakistan to become our Ally in the war on terror.... then there is Libya etc...
What is so ironic is that the Osama has discovered tht using the hard power of a bomb he can destroy the soft power upon which American Capitalism stands...thus they can bring the US down... Simply they will creat a run on the liquidity of the financial system...
Further the Bush administration knows that the USA is fighting for it's very system of government and capitalism...if Kerry should be the next occupant of THE OFFICE he will soon realize the gravity of the situation and the actions it requires (so far he hasn't strayed from what the system wants to hear from a canidate...I'm just going to do it better than Bush, indicating that he isn't really going to do anyhting different). However if Kerry should prove to be indecisive the System will soon use it's SOFT POWER to marginalize him....
The system doesnot like instability..and the divisive political atomsphere in the USA where both poitical factions no longer trust one another will cause the system through the use of soft power to obviate the political process as we know it to maintain stabilty due to National Security concerns...
