Have you ever wondered why some people in America are eligible to run for an office like the Senate or President, but others who might be more qualified are not? I have been wondering about this. Let’s first examine the cost of running for a national office. Before we get started, let's look at what the base cost was to run for an office in 1915, right before the Federal Reserve was established.
The Senate seat was $2k up to but not exceeding $10k.
Presidential $5k to $10k. You see the difference. The average American could afford to run before the Federal Reserve was established.
The most expensive state:
Texas is hands down the most expensive state. Coming it at
$199,959,917. This is insane. It takes almost two million dollars to run for a Senate seat in Texas.
The least expensive state was a surprise, considering what it’s known for: Nevada. Yes, the state with the highest concentration of casinos and legalized brothels is the least expensive to run for a Senate seat, at $78,212,684. I was shocked, to be honest.
Now, let’s look at how much it costs to run for President today. In 2024, it cost $61.79 million for both people to waste our time running. Here is where we have to ask the awkward question: where does the bulk of the money come from? Every race I have seen has had drives for you and me to donate small amounts of money. Think about that amount; $61.79 million. There is no way the American people could possibly fund this. It was the Super PACs that were generous. Well, not so generously. Here’s why! You give a million to someone to get into office out of the goodness of your heart. NO! These super PACs give to both people, so they win either way. Why give to one when you can guarantee your influence over both candidates? How? Are there limits to how much one person can donate? There are limits on the amount one can donate to candidates. Here is how they get around it. They have organizations like American Heritage, which will give millions to each candidate. Or the Clinton Foundation is another example. The Clintons gave money to Kamala Harris, then gave it to Trump under another dummy charity. Or through a third party.
Let’s see who has run in the past, then the current people.
Abraham Lincoln would be a perfect example. He grew up poor. He worked his way up the financial ladder. He used the railways that he had access to. He put some serious miles on the railroads. President Lincoln’s number one mistake was saying no to the Rothschilds' banking cartel. This eventually got him killed.
Now let’s look at who has the privilege of running today. It’s the super elite. Trump, Clinton, Kennedy, and so on. Are they any smarter than the average American, despite the elite education they receive? No. You would think they would be, but they aren’t. As a matter of fact, I would bet the average American who skipped the trash television programming over the last three decades is abundantly smarter than any oligarch who went to these super elite schools. Joe Biden and Donald Trump are perfect examples of people who go to these elite schools but are as dumb as F…. Seriously!
What should the qualifications for the President be? This is going to be fun because it won’t be what you think. Of course, if you have been watching me on YouTube for any amount of time, you will know I am a fan of common sense. With that said, let’s go.
Business experience. They must have the experience of running or owning a business that has NOT been in multiple bankruptcies. They CANNOT have multiple lawsuits against them for not paying their bills. Seriously! Why Trump is allowed to have an empire despite his stupid business decisions should be obvious.
Military experience. I am not talking about joining a youth group for brownie points on your college application, or you’re too stupid and/or lazy for the real military*. These oligarchs who use their military experience to gain street credit, stop it. It’s pathetic and transparent. The only real transparency in America. I am talking about being in the trenches, not knowing if you will see tomorrow or not. Having military experience should be a requirement. How can you give orders if you don’t understand the consequences of them? How can you expect people to truly trust your orders? You can’t.
Morals. I am sick of the continual freakshow our country has become. The only way I can think of to stop is to return to the Lord Jesus and live as He and His Father command us to live. That means, NO PEDOPHILES running the government. None of this is sticking our noses in affairs that are none of our business. The only way I will ever vote again is if a Godly Masculine Man is running. A man you know you can rely on to do right by others and have a strong hand for those who don’t. A man who WON’T sell his and America’s soul to anyone, regardless of what their ancestors went through. He will understand that putting America first is just that, American interest first IN America and on American soil HERE. I have said before that I boycotted the last three-ring freak show called selection season. Let’s face it, it was a Jerry Springer freakshow.
What are the qualifications you think someone should have to be President? Skip the L vs R or D vs R bullshit. As George Carlin said, “It’s a big club, and we aren’t invited. You and I aren’t invited.”
*This is not to be a negative reflection of those who join the National Guard because they want to serve but they’re the only son or child in a family. Likewise, if you serve in the National Guard in addition to being a first line responder such as an EMT or Firefighter, you are a hero.
