Pure Hysteria About Mamdani “Socialism”, Depicting Him As A “Communist” And “Islamic Terrorist”, By Republicans!

Ronald 8 Comments

New York City is very likely to elect Zohran Mamdani the 111th Mayor a week from now, despite the dire warnings being spread by Republicans and corporate leaders, and even many religious leaders, both Jewish and otherwise.

There is pure hysteria being spread that Mamdani, a self described “Democratic Socialist”, is a “Communist” and an “Islamic Terrorist”, as he is of the Muslim faith.

The Jewish community is deeply divided over Mamdani, who has been harshly critical of the Israel-Gaza War, which has killed about 65,000 Palestinians. Some Jewish groups who are totally supportive of any tactic or policy of the Israeli government under Benjamin Netanyahu see Mamdani as a dire threat to Jews in New York City and elsewhere.

The fact that Mamdani has plans to help the struggling middle class and poor, rather than cater to the wealthy elite, also has led the Republican Party nationally under Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and President Donald Trump, to portray him with the lunatic accusation that he is a “Communist’, which demonstrates total ignorance and stupidity about the meaning of the term.

If anything, Trump himself being too “cozy” with Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation and Kim Jong Un of North Korea (both Communists), belies the manipulation of public opinion being perpetrated by a Republican Party, which clearly does not care about the rapidly worsening economic conditions caused by Trump’s refusal to care about the economic plight of tens of millions of Americans who were told the cost of living would decrease under Trump in his second term.

New York City Mayoralty Race In Tumult!

Ronald Leave a comment

New York City, the largest city in America, will elect its 111th Mayor in its history in November.

In a “wild and woolly” race, we have professed Democratic Socialist and Shiite Muslim Queens County State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, 33 years old, way ahead of former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo, present NYC Mayor Eric Adams, and Republican Guardian Angels Founder Curtis Sliwa.

While there is concern about Mamdani’s Socialist leanings and his Shiite Muslim religion, he is seen as winning no matter who stays in the race or drops out.

Sliwa certainly has ZERO chance of being elected Mayor, as there is no appetite to elect a Republican to the Mayoralty in the time of Donald Trump.

Sliwa is no Fiorello LaGuardia, John Lindsey, Rudy Giuliani, or Michael Bloomberg, all affiliated with the Republican Party in the past hundred years of Mayoral history.

Adams has become the only sitting Mayor to be indicted, and then, seemingly, given a pass by Donald Trump as long as he does not interfere with ICE Raids. The corruption in his administration of so many aides, along with his own personal corruption, is mind boggling.

At the same time, Andrew Cuomo has a corrupt background as well, forcing him to resign as NY Governor in 2021 on sexual harassment accusations.

So polls indicate despite concerns about Mamdani’s background and experience and his youth, he is extremely likely to win the election, despite police unions against him, the Jewish community uneasy, and the African American community being disinterested in him.

Mamdani has drawn support particularly from young voters, and Latino, Asian American, and white liberal voters, who see him as a refreshing change from corrupt leadership of Adams and Cuomo.

Mamdani has over 40 percent in the polls, and if any of his opponents drop out of the race, he rises to the mid to high 40s.

It is not a requirement for any candidate for Mayor or any public office in America to win a majority of the popular vote, as many Presidents have not done so, as well as Governors and Senators historically.

So it is likely that Mamdani will become the 111th Mayor!

And Mamdani will face the hostile President Trump, who has spoken of sending the National Guard into NYC, and even of deporting Mamdani, who was born in Uganda where he lived to age 5, then in South Africa until age 7, and then moved to New York City.

Both his parents are of Indian descent, with his mother being Hindu and his father being Muslim.

Why Kamala Harris Is Likely On The Road To Victory

admin 10 Comments

Although the polls are very close in the Presidential Election race of 2024, all signs are good that Kamala Harris is likely on the road to occupying the Oval Office as the 47th President of the United States after the November 5 election date.

Harris is ahead in most polls in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada, which if true, would give her a 287-251 Electoral College victory, also including the Second District in Nebraska.

There is no doubt that Harris will easily win the popular vote, and possibly by more than the 7 plus million vote victory of Joe Biden in 2020.

Additionally, Harris is ahead in the following categories:

Urban voters
Suburban voters
College Educated Voters
Women Voters
African American Voters
Latino Voters
Jewish Voters
Asian American Voters
Voters 18-29 Years of Age
Voters Over Age 50
Labor Union Voters
Gay And Lesbian Voters

Of course, being ahead does not mean that the percentages of each voter category are what they have been in the past, or that one would think they should be, so there is plenty of work ahead in the next 25 days to convince voters in all of the above categories to support Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump will have the edge with:

Rural Voters
Non College Educated Voters
White Male Voters
Wealthy Voters
30-50 Years of Age Voters
Religious Voters

It is clear that there are still those Americans who have not made up their minds, so non stop campaigning is essential, as this election is crucial to the survival of American democracy, the rule of law, and maintaining the US Constitution!

Virginia And Florida: Two “Swing” States With Strong “Blue Areas”: Will It Be Enough For Barack Obama?

Ronald 1 Comment

Two “swing” states, crucial to the Presidential Election of 2012, are also Southern states, which have usually been fertile Republican territory, but not necessarily this time, as they were not in the Presidential Election of 2008.

Those two states are Virginia and Florida, where much of the battle for the Presidency will be centered over the next six months.

Virginia had voted Republican since after 1964, until Barack Obama won it in 2008. The key area that helped bring the Obama victory was northern Virginia, near Washington DC. This area has seen a continuous growth of federal government employees, many of them for the Pentagon in northern Virginia, but also other government workers who have settled in that area of the state. Additionally, many young people, African Americans, and Hispanics and Latinos have settled in Northern Virginia in recent years, and women have been alienated from the Republicans, due to the vaginal probe bill introduced by Governor Bob McDonnell, a leading candidate for the Vice Presidential nomination to run with Mitt Romney.

Virginia is really two states, and in that regard, not all that different than many other states, but the Northern Virginia vote was enough to give Obama the win in 2008, and right now, it seems likely that scenario will happen again in 2012.

Florida is another such case, with South Florida the “blue” area of the state, and helping Barack Obama to win the state in 2008, only the third time since the late 1960s to go to the Democrats (the other times being 1976 and 1996 when Southerners Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton carried the state).

The margin of victory in Florida was gained by South Florida support, just as was so in Northern Virginia, and the growth of non Hispanic Cubans, plus the northeastern and Jewish influence in South Florida, seem likely to give Barack Obama another opportunity to gain the state in a close vote finish in November!
