It is heartbreaking, seriously heartbreaking, that tomorrow’s meeting of the Electoral College (December 16, 2024) marks the end of 8 years in which the mainstream media herded us along to NOT make use of the Constitution’s provision for choosing a good president.
And what is that method? It’s for each state to assign citizens as Electors, according to laws set by each state, whereupon they attend a meeting and each signs a ballot for president and a separate one for vice-president. Hopefully at that meeting, or well before, they would have tried to identify the best leader available. They can, and should, act in cahoots with Electors from other states. And forget about Party. The concept of Party does not even get a ‘Hello’ in the Constitution.
What’s your idea of qualities would make a good president? How about honest, courageous, forward-looking, rational, and with a notable achievement in any field — one that tested his/her skill at dealing with serious problems. And how about your pick for Vice President? His/her qualities should be the same, as a bullet or an aneurism is enough to make the VP take over the top job.
I hereby recommend that the Electors who have planned to write the names Trump and Vance tomorrow (and who are not in states that demand accordance with the Nov 5 polls), take a look at cardiologist Peter McCullough. Let me provide a very brief sales pitch for him.
ProlegomenaI don’t know his DOB and am not willing to consult Wikipedia to learn it. He looks to be around 61.
I do recall that he has degrees in medicine and in epidemiology. He loves to cite the number of papers he has published in both fields. Thus, I’ll bet colleagues consider him a go-to guy.He has a wife and four kids. I don’t think we should be too interested, as each person’s opportunity to form a happy marriage is different. However, McCullough seems to have been lucky in his.
The Deceitful Pandemic
This “candidate’s” strength is best judged by how he handled on of the most tragic events of modern times. I’m sure McCullough was not aware, pre-2020, of what a corrupt government we have had for many decades. I saw him in an interview, circa 2021, at which he looked truly naive. He just couldn’t fathom the bit about journals rejecting articles that were skeptical of Covid.
I can only paraphrase, from memory. He said “How can they possibly do that? The whole point of science is to dig for the facts, and let everybody chime in with their observations.”Anyway, it’s late in the day. What I want to tell you is that Dr McCullough proceeded, for the last 3.5 years, to do SOMETHING NORMAL. He did what he would have done 30 years ago, which is what any typical medical leader with integrity would also have done 30 years ago:
*1. He looked for the harm that was occurring to people’s health, and tried to figure the cause.
*2. He identified the right treatment (e.g., ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine) and jumped up and down to promote it (mainly via articles and lectures).
*3. I think he also developed a new protocol having to do with spike protein, but I don’t want to speak out of my depth. (Look it up.)
*4. He “went berserk” arguing for the basic right to free speech for all Americans.
*5. After he finally absorbed the reality of the criminal corruption in government, he spoke about that. I heard a speech he gave in NH at the Mises Institute, in which he said [I am not paraphrasing.]: “The House of Medicine is on fire.”
Now to the Electoral College
So like I said, it is heartbreaking that our whole, once-thrilling nation has been reduced to stupidity by the media. Media first caused people to buy the idea that it matters who is president. No, it’s not really vital — the Congress has the greater power. (When you hear some boast of what Trump will do, please check the parchment to see if he can do it; usually Not.)
The emphasis on “Who will save us?” is a distraction. (In 2016 “Hillary of Trump” in 2020 “Trump or Kamala”). Instead, we should be looking at what is going wrong and searching for who is skilled at dealing with it. Foreign policy, agriculture, banking, whatever. Such topics affect or lives. No one “candidate’ is going to have every relevant talent but at least he or she can show an ability to engage caring Americans in dealing firmly with the issue. This used to be NORMAL.
OK, here is the deal for tomorrow. Monday afternoon at your State House. No media have breathed a word about the Elector’s job. To me that suggests that there may be a trick planned to grab enough of the 270 votes that Trump must secure in order, on Jan 6, to be elected. (Does it not infuriate you, O Citizen, that Trump is being called “Potus” when he is not even president-ELECT until Dec 16th? I can email you a copy of the Constitution if you need one.)
If Trump gets anything less than 270 Electoral votes tomorrow, the choice of president will be made on Jan 6 by the House of Reps, one vote per state. (For VP it’s made by the US Senate.) (The whole “running mate” thing about VP’s is unconstitutional, I believe, but never mind that now. Each elector marks a separate ballot for the two persons. Note: Vance’s wife is reportedly in the Pilgrim’s Society, a UK thing that should frighten the pants off you.)
Recommendation
I voted for Thomas Massie as president, as write-in on my ballot this past November. He is easily capable of being a good president. Today I am not pushing for him. It may be that he is in deep mourning over his wife Rhonda who died in June at age 51. But my main reason is that he is specifically associated with one of the big Parties (Look it up) and you can hardly expect an Elector to cross the aisle on short notice. (Most Electors are Party-oriented to the nth degree.)
Let me end this with a happy observation to all Americans: There really is no reason why we can’t return to honesty, or at least the public expectation of honesty. We don’t need to have creeps running the show. We can have good men. Yep. We can. We can have natural leaders. They do exist. I have named one such person in this article, Peter McCullough, MD.Just for fun, let’s try out the sound of this title: President McCullough.Not bad, huh?
MM, I have watched hours and hours of Trump interviews now. I don’t know of anyone that could have survived what he was subjected to, and come out of the storm with the calm clarity and focus to do what he has promised. It’s almost a superhuman endeavour (but that’s a separate conversation).
RFK jr could enlist Peter McCullough to be part of the MAHA drive.
Regarding people: No one is perfect. If my memory serves me correctly Peter M admitted in the early days that he got most of his patients injected with the mRNA vax until he realized there was a problem … to then become one of the most solid voices for truth and science. Many of us “knew” right from the get go that these jabs were a disaster… (please someone check this)
I am a fan of Massie.
The US needs thousands of Massies, but I believe there are many young leaders surfacing like him.
On another note: you wrote — “it is heartbreaking that our whole, once-thrilling nation has been reduced to stupidity by the media. Media first caused people to buy the idea that it matters who is president.” Yes. But I think it was the MEDIA who revealed themselves as the propaganda machine for deep state actors, control and stupidity. THE PEOPLE THIS TIME VOTED AGAINST THE MEDIA. But I think the US President is the symbolism of social order — that humans want and require a leader or chief.
Dee darling, you say: “The US needs thousands of Massies, but I believe there are many young leaders surfacing like him.”
Fabulous. May the masses of Massies climb aboard, asap. Maybe there’ll be too many of them to kill.
P.S., re McCullough giving the shots. His practice is specialized, I imagine only the GPs did a lot of vaxxing. Still, I think he did admit to being on the wrong side originally.
In US a lot of people got their Pfizer gift at the hands of the local pharmacy such as Walgreens or CVS. It was “free.”
How (and why) did Massie’s wife die?
Dee, your guess is good as mine.
Dee did you hear that a judge in Germany has let a nurse “walk”? Her crime was substituing saline solution for what’s in the Pfizer vials.
Yay judge. Yay nurse. Yay everybody.
