U.S. election campaign points to political manipulation over common sense

Picture
This week’s MY CANADA offering will be a commentary on a topical subject beginning with the American election campaign that will undoubtedly affect Canadians. The reflections heard during the primary debates are not any different than the rhetoric that raged throughout the recent Canadian Federal election. Traditional politeness combined with the ability to listen to the other person’s view seems to be a thing of the past. Every politician seems now seems willing to support the supposition attack is the best defense.
Democratic principles are based on listening to the other person’s point of view then debating the merits of thoughts, needs or desires and reaching a compromise most satisfactory to both sides, or in Canada’s case all parties. That is the reason democracy was previously so cherished and envied over the years by people living under dictatorships and authoritative regimes. Today’s political practices changed probably threatening the continued existence of democracies like those currently used to govern in the United States and Canada.
On the other hand it appears the result of Canadians electing the Trudeau government is a sign the current pre-and-post millennia generations are using a previously ignored ability to vote for change bringing back the ‘get everyone involved’ democratic principles.
Those values seemed sacrificed recently by the one percent of the population with the monetary power to rule through the almighty dollar. A new era might be surfacing with financial markets in steep decline and every nation reportedly struggling to manage excessive personal and government debt.
One unknown and a historical consequence is the aftermath if the entire world becomes involved in a major military conflict in the order of WWII, but much more deadly, after a worldwide financial collapse depression. The alternative is probably for today’s youth to change the direction one per cent of the world’s population currently in control is attempting to promote. The movement seems to purport using political power as a means of staying in control while increasing financial control over the masses.
            Canada’s 2015 national election surprised the money masters by allowing one of the young people, probably a member of the one percent category, to attain the country’s highest political position without advocating the middle class sacrifice more of its recently acquired financial stability to the whims and control of the one percent with the most money. Even families with dwindling wealth and security having offspring unable to see a future similar to their parents will likely follow past political trends with blind support.
However, all indications point in another direction. Youthful political entities will stop the drive by the senior or mid-to-late 20th century political figures to destroy the democracy our forefathers fought so hard to structure and preserve before money madness took world precedence.
Hopefully the outcome in the American presidential race throughout most of 2016 will result in a more youthful power base dealing in the art of negotiation and compromise to assure the future. The alternative could easily be the kind of world currently a part of depressing news reports emanating from the Middle East.
Wars and the rise and fall of political entities have always been a part of life in the Mid East. The trend is mostly perpetuated by the lack of willingness by those with absolute power to negotiate and compromise for equality of life. Does the US election change from diplomacy and respect among candidates indicate the same is happening on this continent? Maybe the art of negotiating a compromise in the way our countries are governed isn’t dead. The Trudeau led Liberals are certainly different than past governments from either party. Let’s hope the trend continues and the American electorate takes note.
