Fear. Strength. Best place in the world.

Fear works miraculously well in an election. Nothing attracts a voter to a leader like the feeling that that leader will protect them in a dangerous situation. To feel the warmth of protection, one has to feel fear first. So, Iran.

Strong is another word that resonates. We should not be weak, but should be strong, parrot politicians. Strong, standing up to bullies, bad people. We should be able to stare down people over the barrel of a gun. We should not be seen as weak in the eyes of the world, but strong. Strong, so that noone dares to do anything against us.

Prosperity for children and grand children is good, but nothing like the feeling that we live in the best place in the world to achieve it. It is not nice to think that there are other countries in the world which might more successful. We are the most successful people. This experiment, America, is by far the most successful country in the world. How can it possible go wrong or need changing? We won't face that.
