What If?

What if Mitt Romney had won the last election? In anticipation of winning the election, and well prior to the final results, Romney formulated a plan to turn the White House into a venture capital-like "holding firm". The syndicate would have been comprised of three teams: "Office of Care and Feeding" which would have included speech writing, "The Office of Packaging and Selling" which would have encompassed information and public relations, and  "The Policy Office" which would have included the National Security Council and would have attempted to dissipate any remaining regulatory, consumer protection, and social agencies.

In the Post Business and Democracy, I contrasted the goals and objectives of a corporation and a democracy. Certainly, if this this country is run like a corporation, democracy and America- as we know it- will cease to be. It is almost laughable to imagine our country broken up and sold off in pieces. The fact that there are people wearing loud America flag lapel pins that actually believe that it is their right to do this, and that it is good for our country, makes it very painful.

This clip which the National Rifle Association probably won't endorse, may put a smile on your face.

Knowing the basics of speaking in public, NLP, SMM and a few hypnosis everyone can become a winner. Yet, how can we then speak about democracy when we can't distinguish what thoughts are owns and what are not? Maybe the lunch I have today is not the one I want but commercial? My choice to be aware, to learn the insides of this black market called politics and commercial at prowriterscenter.com/speech-writing/. The best for the start. Any other bright ideas?

In fact, it was not that negative due to the fact that it just took a couple of secs and also it aids the hay day Cheats group to stop crawlers from manipulating the hack and also bring their website down.
