Goldilocks & the BlueWho Dilemma:
A Way to Think About the 2020 Candidates

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

It’s obvious we have an unprecedented amount of indecision about who to choose for the Democratic candidate. This undecided #BlueWho thing really matters, and deserves some thoughtful and no-nonsense scrutiny. I believe that most of the undecided voters have the same antecedent. If we can’t know whether we have the Senate, too, we can’t gauge which candidate we can safely vote for, in order to unseat the Orange Little Dicktater. We no longer have the luxury of treating out political candidates like rock stars. We have to get over the idea that they have to be perfect, or check all … Continue reading →

Impeachment & the Fever Dream

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

Every day, now, I fight the urge to flee to wilderness, and hide until all this is over, one way or another. Election night, 2016, was devastating. It was like that carnival ride where you spin around and the floor drops out from under you. Since then, I’ve developed all sorts of health issues, including a depression I couldn’t shake. I finally had to take medication for that. Since the election, I’ve developed an interest in survival skills, in keeping a go-bag and emergency supplies “just in case.” Now, I’m not a full-fledged prepper, but I am a survivor, and … Continue reading →

Jumping from the idea of power, directly into a powerful position, is often the seedling that overgrows into a sort of Kudzu of Corruption. All due respect, Mr A, this is not your A-game.

Obama wins. Us too, maybe.

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

There will be thousands of people writing and commenting about this momentous event in history, but of course, I still have to offer my part. The most surprising thing to me, beyond the overwhelming nature of Barak Obama being elected, is that when that announcement went up on the CNN screen: Barak Obama Elected President …I began to cry. The reaction surprised me. I didn’t even cry when Bill Clinton was elected and I was so thrilled when that happened. I think there are things underneath this, running strong in many of us. It represents the chance for the nation … Continue reading →

2nd Presidential Debate

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

Okay, so I watched the 2nd Presidential Debate yesterday (recorded it). Although some pundits thought it was boring and less interesting that the first one, i beg to differ. I thought it was MORE interesting. Now, granted, the information both candidates put forth was not new, but i thought the value of it was to be found in not only the manner in which it was imparted, but in body language and attitude. First of all, I felt that Obama was clear, articulate, and largely effective in imparting his vision for his presidency. McCain on the other hand, came off … Continue reading →

Burning Bush

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

In a time where the issues of the day are more pressing than ever, such as Al Gore’s prescient warnings about global warning and global climate changes, the American people have been duped and distracted by the specter of weapons of mass destruction. Haven’t we already established that this war-cry has been found both premature and erroneous? While nuclear armament is an issue with which we should reckon, don’t you reckon it didn’t have to be strong-armed into a nation-defining war? Bush is by far the worst president in American history. He has systematically turned the world against America, lied, … Continue reading →

Hillary for President…..in 2012

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

I would vote for Hillary. But I am convinced she won’t win. As a matter of principal, i might vote for her, even knowing that, just to send the message. But i am fearful that it won’t matter, especially if Bush’s cronies have access to the machines again. Even though i believe Hillary Clinton is qualified, capable and would do great things for this country, I don’t think this society is ready for a female president. I’m ready for one, but i don’t think John Q. Public is. Hillary’s path to the White House (or should i say, “Back” to … Continue reading →
