Trump is correct about Rubio by the way. Have you ever really listened to the simple kindergarten words of Marco Rubio?

"Government has nothing to do with an economy. The private sector runs the economy and the government should never be involved with it." That is such stupidity I can't believe he actually expects people to believe it. It is all old world bulloney. And of course taxes are always threatening jobs. If it weren't for taxes the USA would be the perfect country. But, of course the USA debt is going to be paid off magically in a world created by Disney. 

I'd like to see who among his cronies will volunteer to maximize jobs and pay off the USA debt because their profits will be astronomical, right Kochs? 

Rubio needs his pacifier, so be sure he has plenty of water bottles. It will be a miracle to hear reality in any of his speeches.

Denial is so much better than facing facts. Oh, boy, I must really be jaded from losing the Earth to the space program. Keep it up and denial won't matter anymore.

The list of topics that need to move to REALITY POLITICS is long and distinguished.

When I say people in power don't care, I mean it. It isn't politics. 

My only real concern today is Syria. That is immediate. It has urgency and no one likes Assad, but, like Republicans such as McCain there are no viable solutions. At least Russia is a direction for the country. It is measurable for people. They can live within a society that is measurable. Obama better not pull any bulloney over it either. I don't think a limited nuclear engagement between the USA and Russia will improve the chances for Syrians.

Syria needs a peace, not unlimited war.

It took Pope Francis to end the hideous political policies in relation to Cuba. The Republicans don't care about people, they care about a political agenda of democracy for every country. It's nonsense. Fifty years since the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Republicans, like Rubio, actually think oppression of the Cuban people can continue forever. The entire country of Cuba were prisoners due to USA political priorities. The ENTIRE country, not just political prisoners in Cuban jails. But, that is okay. Defeating a dictator passively takes lots and lots of time. Generations would pass before Cuban people received relief from the USA's boot on their necks.

I would think China would be an example of how a country secure within it's own sovereign responsibility can actually grow a democracy from a communist government. It doesn't happen overnight or in a decade; it happens over time as the people become more sophisticated and able to discern their interests in their country to choose leadership by elections. China is on track to become a great country. It is emerging. It seeks benevolent relationships. An emerging country is always worried about it's reputation with international relations. It is why censorship exists in emerging economies that begin in communism. India is different. Brazil is different. Both India and Brazil have a far different path to a government of the people. Russia and China are communist countries and have their own paths to greater freedom for their people. It takes time to build a country. That is good thing. There would be no stability in the world if the winds changed every other year. I think the word Wall Street uses is CONFIDENCE. They want confidence to invest. Good reputations build confidence to investors. Stability in the world is a very good thing if people are to move their countries to a standard that improves their quality of life. 

Russia is always interested in 'stable states.' It lost the post Soviet states because they were ready to be self-governing. Ukraine wanted to be neutral, but, Yanukovych put his power first. Now there is corruption beyond his removal to contend with. Russia needs to respect Minsk II. They don't like the NGOs because they bring political pressures the eastern communists don't want. They see the NGOs as coercive. 

Good night. I've rambled enough. I look forward to another "Day of Francis." His mass for the people in Philadelphia is his crown and glory for the trip. It is the mass for families.
