What is happening to our military in terms of our arsenal of nuclear weapons, the quality of our best fighter jets, anti-missile arrays, and defense budgets are not an accident. Was reading through a book written by a Stanford alumni and it was disturbing.

http://www.wnd.com/2012/08/2016-filmmaker-obama-driving-u-s-toward-vulnerability/

Driven by the alleged anti-colonialist ideology of a father he barely met, President Barack Obama systematically is undermining America economically and militarily – leaving it vulnerable to financial collapse, and even as unlikely as the possibility may seem, nuclear attack.

That’s among the claims in a politically explosive book and documentary hitting theaters nationwide this week by New York Times bestselling author Dinesh D’Souza.

The production also notes during Obama’s first term, the national debt soared from $10 trillion to $15 trillion. At this rate, the federal debt will have doubled to $20 trillion if he wins another term.

And it charges as he slashes the defense budget, Obama is simultaneously pushing to reduce the nation’s nuclear stockpile to as low as a few hundred missiles – even as other countries like China, Russia and North Korea are modernizing and expanding their arsenals, and Iran – widely believed to be close to developing nuclear weapons – is threatening to annihilate Israel.

The film, “2016 Obama’s America,” is based on D’Souza’s highly controversial 2010 book, “The Roots of Obama’s Rage,” and his new book, “Obama’s America: Unmaking the American Dream.”

In the first book, D’Souza explored how Obama’s upbringing and early career molded him into a man who viewed America as the “great colonial exploiter, oppressing and taking advantage of the rest of the world.” Now, in his sequel, D’Souza reveals how Obama’s anti-American worldview has given the nation everything from Obamacare to Solyndra – and “what disasters the next four years will hold if Obama wins a second term.”


comment: Well of course, he was elected to a second term and the question is will America survive a host of bad foreign policy decisions and current terrible lack of response as our enemies grow stronger and as we cut spending and our nuclear arsenal by 20% they plan to increase theirs "asymmetrically" (Russia).  As they battle simulate on a ship in the Baltic flying within 30 feet of the deck, it is unlike any other time in history. In any other incident and Russia has shot down commercial airliners they thought were spy planes without hesitation and we are too intimidated to down a jet in striking distance which would not respond to radio contact as is protocol and has been followed for decades.

This is not okay. Perhaps Tina Turner sang "We don't need another hero" but we do. We need someone vaguely familiar with the military, with combat experience and hands on knowledge to command and lead the military. What is sad?  Of the candidates we have, how many have military experience?

Ted Cruz and Rand Paul have never served in the military. Neither have Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Chris Christie, Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum or Bobby Jindal. And those are just the Republicans gearing up for a presidential campaign.

The same goes for the Democrats likely to seek their party’s nomination for president: Hillary Clinton, Martin O’Malley and Bernie Sanders aren’t veterans either. - See more at: https://specialoperationsspeaks.com/current-news/few-2016-presidential-candidates-have-military-experience-does-that-matter#sthash.GFgxSbT7.dpuf

Here is something you won't see on Fox Network -

Donald Trump smiled in uniform as a cadet in military school, then dodged the Vietnam draft with college enrollment and a medical deferment.

Despite Donald Trump’s claim this week that he avoided serving in the Vietnam War solely due to a high draft number, Selective Service records show that the purported presidential aspirant actually received a series of student deferments while in college and then topped those off with a medical deferment after graduation that helped spare him from fighting for his country, The Smoking Gun has learned.

comment: We need a military person with combat experience more than ever to deal with a world full of conflict and difficult military decisions and issues. This is not a time for lawyers to lead our country, socialists, and people (except for Hilary) who have little or no foreign policy experience.

We will pay dearly if we elect one of these people and see an end to our military superiority where once the U.S. was #1 economically and had the strongest army and defenses in the world.

Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
Revelation 18:10

May we never forget what we have been or what - working with allies, determination, cooperation and courage we still can be...
