Attention, New York, Washington, National daybook/assignment and Political editors

Announcement of New York City-area news conference Tuesday, October 20

Republican presidential candidate Andy Martin holds a New York news conference today, to continue to clarify the controversy between Donald Trump and Jeb Bush over Jeb’s claim his brother “kept us safe”

Andy was the first person to expose candidate George W. Bush as a “foreign policy incompetent” who would do long-term damage to national security

Andy says Donald Trump has triggered a debate on the Bush family’s “two failed wars;” Republicans must stop lying to themselves if they want to win in 2016

(New York) (October 20, 2015) Republican presidential candidate and foreign policy author/expert Andy Martin will hold a New York-area news conference today, Tuesday, October 20th to continue his analysis of the “debate” which Donald Trump and Jeb Bush have joined over whether Jeb’s brother “kept us safe” while George W Bush was president. In 1999-2000 Andy broadcast a TV commercial in New Hampshire over WMUR-TV; the ad predicted George Bush would start a war with Iraq if he was elected president. In 2003, Andy arrived in Baghdad the week after Saddam was deposed; Andy lived in Iraq during long periods of 2003. Although Andy strenuously opposed the invasion of Iraq, and predicted the Bush policy would lead to disaster, his first-hand experiences living in Iraq makes him the only presidential candidate with actual Middle East experience.

“Please allow me begin with a brief ‘victory lap,’” Andy will state. “In 1999, I was right about why then-Governor George W Bush was wrong for the presidency. Last Friday and Saturday I provided an extensive analysis of the facts behind President G W Bush’s failures as a president (please see the links below for my original weekend analysis of the Trump/Bush argument).

“During the 2008 presidential campaign someone called me the ‘Internet Powerhouse;’ the term stuck because I energized the opposition to Barack Obama after John McCain’s campaign collapsed. My readers are some of the most loyal followers on the Internet. They know that when I speak as a politician or candidate, I label those comments as ‘political.’ And when I speak as an expert or analyst, I try to be as impartial and authoritative as possible.

“My analysis often does a better job of explaining Donald Trump’s thoughts than he does, because he lacks my foreign policy depth. Nevertheless, because I am unalterably opposed to the candidacy of Jeb Bush I am indebted to Trump for leading the charge to defeat Bush.

“Here are the facts:

“First, I knew Trump’s 9/11 claims would open up a raw wound for Jeb because Jeb as a candidate is basically an empty vessel. Jeb has recruited (not sure of the exact number as of today) some seventeen of his twenty foreign policy ‘advisers’ from his brother’s failed administration. Jeb is running to reinstate the ‘G W Bush III Presidency’(second George W Bush administration).

“Second, pre-9/11 President Bush was given repeated warnings of the terrorist threat, but there was no response from his administration. President George Bush ‘did not keep us safe’ before 9/11, because the nation was asleep to the terror threat and Bush himself was wallowing in complacency.

“Third, in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 President Bush did act appropriately and he is entitled to credit. For the first few weeks after the attack he led a unified nation.

“Fourth, Bush soon squandered his brief period of national unity when he began to use 9/11 as an excuse to plan an attack on Iraq, when Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. If Bush had directed all of our resources into Afghanistan, we would have caught Osama Bin Laden, promptly, before Bin Laden could burrow into hiding.

“Fifth, over the long term Bush most definitely did not ‘keep us safe.’ Bush left behind a time bomb in Iraq, and because of President Obama’s hubris and incompetence nothing was done to defuse the bomb. But make no mistake, Bush’s own disastrous policies, and his surrender to Al Maliki for example, set the stage for the catastrophes that followed.

“Sixth, Bush did not ‘win the war’ because of the ‘surge.’ The surge was a desperate stopgap measure to stave off complete collapse and chaos. As a tourniquet to stanch the bleeding, the surge succeeded. But there was no follow-up. In fact, Bush, once again lulled into complacency by his own egomania, decided he had ‘won’ (‘mission accomplished?’) and used the temporary relief offered by the surge to walk away from the inevitable disaster.

“Seventh, Jeb wants to cut-and-paste dates out of context to claim his brother was a success. But now, in 2015, we can see the true chaos that eight years of George Bush in the White House left behind. Obama thought he could waltz into office, withdraw from the Middle East and implement his domestic socialist agenda. He was wrong. The cancers which Bush left behind have consumed both Obama’s legacy and the Middle East itself. That is why I believe history will judge Obama our worst president, and Bush our second-worst president. For sixteen years we have been led by two-party incompetents.

“Donald Trump, who obviously has a radically higher media profile than I do, has done America a great service by finally opening up a discussion and debate on the incompetence of George W Bush, and how Bush’s failure as a leader not only led to Obama, but also left behind a world that would become increasingly endangered and unstable. George Bush left behind a Middle East on the cusp of collapse, and Obama enabled the collapse. Over the long term, G W Bush most definitely did NOT keep us safe.’ Jeb cannot disguise or disregard his brother’s failed presidency. Today, out of sight and out of mind, Bush may be viewed more favorably. But as we revisit 2001-2009, the Bush-era disasters will once again come into focus. Since leaving the White House George W Bush has had the decency to fade from public view and for that he can be respected. But his eight-year record of arrogance and incompetence will live in infamy forever.”

And, finally, a footnote:

Andy Martin has over forty-five years of experience in Asia, Southwest Asia and the Middle East; he is regarded overseas as one of America’s most respected independent foreign policy, military and intelligence analysts. He was in Iran and Afghanistan during the hostage crisis in 1979-80, and has regularly returned to Southwest Asia since then. He lived in Iraq in 2003. His analysis of the terrorist threat in Iran during 1979-80, and again in Iraq in 2003, were leading-edge predictions of what Americans faced in the future. Andy first went to Asia in 1967 and has lived in or been in Israel, Jordan, Libya, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Viet-Nam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Burma, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom.

NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE: GOP Presidential Andy Martin says Jeb Bush is wrong; George W Bush did NOT “keep us safe”

Republican Party presidential candidate and foreign policy author/expert Andy Martin will hold a New York City news conference today, Saturday, October 17, to “set the record straight” on whether former President George W. Bush “kept us safe” after 9/11, as his brother Jeb repeatedly, and falsely claims. “Trump is right,” Andy says. “9/11 happened in part because of the complacency of GW Bush’s administration. The CIA warned of an attack and no one paid any attention. Bin Laden attacked while America was asleep. And, after 9/11 GW Bush’s horrible mistakes endangered America and promoted the rise of terrorism. GW didn’t intend to do evil things; but because GW Bush was incompetent he was our ‘worst president’ until Obama came along. Now Bush is our second-worst. To be sure, President Barack Obama exacerbated the mess GWB left behind. But the seeds of our current disaster were planted by the Bush family. It is time for Republicans to have an honest discussion, not debate, because there is no ‘debating’ that GW Bush seriously endangered our national and economic security.”

Announcement of New York news conference Saturday, October 17

Republican presidential candidate Andy Martin will hold a New York news conference today, to demand that Jeb Bush stop lying about his brother and stop claiming, falsely, that GWB “kept us safe”

Andy was the first to expose President George W. Bush as a “foreign policy incompetent” who would do long-term damage to national security

Andy says Americans should be free to debate the Bush family’s “two failed wars” and Republicans should stop lying to themselves if they ever again want to win the White House

(New York) (October 17, 2015)  Republican presidential candidate and foreign policy author/expert Andy Martin will hold a New York news conference today, Saturday, October 17th to confirm what Donald Trump implied on Friday, that President George W. Bush (“GWB”) endangered U. S. security both before and after 9/11. Friday Jeb Bush and Donald Trump renewed a fight over GW Bush’s legacy (see links below).

“After 9/11 we could not have an honest discussion about what happened on 9/11,” Andy says. “Americans were at war. We trusted GWB to ‘do the right thing.’ He did not. GWB endangered our national security both before and after 9/11. One of the reasons Jeb Bush is unfit to even be nominated for president, let alone serve in the White House, is because he keeps defending the disastrous record of his brother.

“Donald Trump is a Johnny-Come-Lately to the ‘war of words’ between the Bush Brothers and me. In December, 1999 I began airing a commercial on WMUR-TV in New Hampshire accusing then-Governor GWB of ‘wanting to start a war with Iraq.’ My analysis of GWB’s flawed character was years ahead of anyone else’s. I knew GWB had a screw loose for Iraq. After my TV commercial began exposing his brother as a potential foreign policy nincompoop Jeb Bush counterattacked. But many believe my TV ad provided the slim margin by which GWB lost the 2000 New Hampshire primary.

“Jeb and I have been at odds for over twenty years, since I first exposed his profiteering in the early 1990’s. The Bush family may have fooled Americans. But they never fooled me.

“So what are the facts?

“First, GWB was warned on taking office in 2001 that Al Qaeda was a serious threat. He did nothing.

“Second, in August, 2001 Bush was warned Al Qaeda was planning to strike the United States. GWB went on vacation.

“Third, to his credit, Bush acted responsibly in the immediate aftermath of 9/11. Then he squandered his good will by making decisions that are still, in 2015, endangering our national security.

“Fourth, Bush ‘starved’ the mission to find and kill Osama Bin Laden. Bush incompetently started diverting military resources to a buildup for an invasion of Iraq. Bush allowed VP Dick Cheney to start lying, which Cheney still does to this date, falsely claiming Iraq had something to do with 9/11. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. In fact, Bin Laden was a sworn enemy of the Iraqi regime.

“Fifth, Bush provided false ‘intelligence’ to justify his invasion of Iraq. I knew there were no ‘weapons of mass destruction’ in Iraq. Why didn’t Hillary Clinton? Cheney and Bush intimidated the congress into endorsing a disastrous military operation.

“Sixth, a few days after Saddam Hussein was deposed in April, 2003 I landed in Baghdad. I saw our foreign policy disaster up close. As early as mid-2003 I was warning about the long-term dangers of Bush’s policy. Once again, Bush didn’t fool me, even though he fooled most Americans.

“Seventh, when Saddam Hussein was captured, Bush’s puppet in Iraq, Paul Bremer, suggested the war in Iraq was over. I correctly reported the resistance was just beginning. Again Bush was wrong and I was right.

“Eighth, in 2006-2007, despite my opposition to the invasion, I supported the buildup that became the ‘surge.’ There was no other option. Bush had botched our policy so badly he had to build up before he could stand down.

“Ninth, Bush, not Obama, was the one who negotiated our disastrous withdrawal policy. Bush was the one who allowed the Shiite strongman, Al Maliki, to take and stay in power. In 2009, Bush left behind a ticking time bomb for President Barack Obama. Obama thought he was being a smarty pants when he allowed the ‘bomb’ to explode. But Obama’s initial mistakes still resonate today, not only in Iraq but also in Afghanistan.

“Tenth, Jeb Bush has the audacity and contempt for the truth to keep saying that his brother ‘kept us safe’ while in office. Kept us safe? Thousands of Americans died to implement the flawed Bush invasion and occupation of Iraq. Tens of thousands were seriously wounded. Has Jeb never seen the ‘Wounded warrior’ ads on TV? Or doesn’t he care?

“GW Bush endangered not only our national security but also our economic security. The overall, long-term costs of his disastrous invasion of Iraq will come to ten trillion (trillion) dollars when the final bills are settled some time in the next century. By taking his eye off Afghanistan in 2001, Bush prolonged Osama Bin Laden’s ‘reign’ (to use Trump’s word) in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and prolonged what should have been an immediate death strike at Bin Laden after 9/11.

“Eleventh, to be sure, ‘wise guy’ Obama thought he had swallowed a canary when he withdrew from Iraq under the ‘Bush plan.’ Obama is still paying for his own hubris. Just this week, former Secretary of Defense Gates confirmed that anti-military members of Obama’s administration were egging Obama on to ignore military warnings and to abandon Iraq. Today, more Americans are dying because of the Bush/Obama policy of incompetence and arrogance in the Middle East.

“Twelfth, Bush’s bungling led inexorably to the breakdown in Iraq and Syria. No, ISIS did not come into being on Bush’s watch. But the eventual arrival of ISIS was the natural progression of Bush’s withdrawal timetable in Iraq.

“In conclusion, GW Bush was a foreign policy disaster. He did not ‘keep us safe.’ Backwardly, almost everything he did contributed to the long-term dangers we face today. The fact that we did not have more 9/11’s at home is not something to brag about; GW Bush just ‘exported’ our new 9/11’s to Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Jeb Bush continues to spread the lie that Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11, and that we are ‘better off’ without him. Better off? Ten trillion dollars better off? Hussein was an evil dictator. But he was a bulwark against Iranian expansion. When Saddam fell, Iran began to take control of Iraq.

“Jeb Bush should have the common decency to stop running for president and stop lying about his incompetent family that started two unnecessary wars, left trillions of dollars in debt behind, and has damaged American security into the foreseeable future. Barack Obama has only carried out GW Bush’s disastrous policies. Obama may be a jerk in his own right. But GW Bush is the one that created the mess in the first place.

“I bear GW Bush no personal animus. He is a decent person as a person. But he was totally unqualified to be president, as I correctly predicted in 1999; GW has left behind a bitter legacy. The utter and complete arrogance of the Bush family, in trying to promote Jeb as he latest example of a blood line with bad blood, is merely a reflection of the contempt which the Bush Family and its life-long Wall Street kingmakers have for the American people.

“Jeb should immediately withdraw as a candidate and he should promise to stop lying about his father’s and brother’s failures. GW Bush did not ‘keep us safe.’ Rather, GW Bush has left behind a legacy that continues to endanger every American and will do so for generations.

“I know Republicans hate to face the facts, and I know they love to attack truth-tellers like me. (They started attacking me in 1999 when my TV ad predicted GW Bush was incompetent to become president.) But Bush family failures will haunt the GOP and lock us out of the White house until someone such as Trump is willing and able to tell the truth about the failures of the toxic Bush Family dynasty.

“I have never lied about Bush family corruption and incompetence, which I began documenting in 1993. I have only told the truth, to Republicans and to the American people. I was 100% correct in 1999 when I exposed GW Bush as unfit to lead,” Andy charges. “It is about time for Republicans to tell Americans the truth, admit GW Bush made horrible mistakes and promise never to sin again in the same way that GW Bush courted disaster, and then created an ongoing disaster with his arrogant and incompetent policies.”

(New York) (October 14, 2015) Dear American:

Some of you may have watched the CNN Democratic Party presidential candidates’ debate. Actually, it was livelier than I expected. This Letter from the Campaign carries a joint masthead because I will be posting this story both on my presidential blog and my ContrarianCommentary.com blogs.

Of course, the debate exposed the broad gap between the “mainstream” of today’s Democratic Party and mainstream, Main Street, America. Most of the liberal media will tell you Hillary Clinton “won the debate.” Actually, I have a contrarian view. Bernie Sanders won, hands down.

I entered national politics by going to Capitol Hill fifty years ago this year to write an esoteric thesis on the procedural rules of the U.S. Senate. Unlike most media “analysts,” who have little or no political experience, my life has blended independent activism as well as political involvement. I fight corruption, arrogance and abuse, but I almost always fight within the political process, government and the judicial system. So even though I am an “independent” conservative, “maverick” or whatever you want to call me, I know how the system works even if I have always stood apart from the system while fighting abuses within our society. That’s why I call my writing “Contrarian Commentary” and why I am a Republican candidate for president - to keep fighting to make the system work - for every American.

So why are my conclusions about who won the Democratic “debate” so different than the Beltway media? Because I take a broader, most experienced perspective.

There are three reasons why Bernie won. Two are obvious, but one is not. Let me start with my surprising conclusion first.

Bernie won the debate because of guns. Yes, guns. The two first states to “vote” in 2016 are Iowa and New Hampshire, closely followed by Nevada and South Carolina. Over the past fifty years the two parties have largely polarized; there are very few “conservative” Democrats left, and few “liberal” Republicans.

But although conservatives and liberals have realigned themselves, their cultures are not as fully separated. Many “liberal” Democrats in Iowa are still culturally conservative in many ways. Likewise, many “liberal” Democrats in New Hampshire are also culturally conservative. Quick question: are labor union members, who are classic “Democrats,” culturally liberal or conservative? Mostly conservative. And here is what the media missed Tuesday night.

There are a lot of Democrats in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada who own guns. After Tuesday night, they are all Sanders voters. By pounding Bernie on guns, Hillary accomplished two goals for Bernie (which even he may not realize since my views are contrarian). First, Hillary confirmed that Bernie is a candidate that can be trusted on guns. Second, Hillary showed Bernie to be a “politician,” and thus someone who is reasonable and can be trusted.

Bernie said he voted for guns because he is from a “rural state.” Of course, more people in rural areas and small towns own guns. Where do you find rural areas (Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada)? Democrats in those states who support guns, while espousing liberal policies, can safely vote for Bernie because he pays attention to the specific needs of his state (he’s a politician!) and because he recognizes cultural differences between big cities and small towns.

Very few potential Sanders voters (see my next two points) will abandon him because of his voting record on guns. But now everyone knows Bernie is capable of representing his “rural” constituents and supporting their contrarian views on gun ownership. A very big plus for Sanders. (Ironically, although Jim Webb is really the cultural conservative in the race, his performance was so weak he won’t benefit from the gun issue.)

The second reason Sanders won is because the debate proved beyond doubt that he is driving the national agenda in the Democratic Party and Clinton can’t be trusted to take decisive action. One of the critical exchanges of the debate, which will probably be overlooked by liberal commentators, is when Governor O’Malley and Sanders double-teamed Clinton on breaking up the big banks. Clinton’s response? The same old Clinton. She has a five-point (or some “point”) “plan.” In other words, mush.  When push came to shove, Clinton was “all hat and no cattle" on the need for genuine reform. She would moan about Wall Street but she wouldn’t break up the big banks. (Ironically, a lot of Republicans also agree with Sanders on the irresponsible power of big banks and Wall Street.)

Sanders supporters will pick up on the fact that Clinton is all style and no substance when it comes to taking serious stands on the issues.

Just as Trump is transforming the Republican party (I have an exciting column/analysis in the works!) Sanders, for better or for worse, is transforming the Democrats. Prediction: even after someone wins the nomination (still probably Clinton) Sanders will not withdraw as a candidate. He will stay in the race to launch a platform fight at the national convention and to take his views to the floor of the National Convention. If Hillary thinks “winning” the nomination is the end of Bernie, she is badly mistaken. Bernie is in the driver’s seat. Not her.

Finally, the third reason why Sanders was a big winner at the debate was that more than for anyone else, the debate elevated him to parity with Clinton as a candidate. After the debate, Bernie went on Chris Matthews’ show. Bernie said “five months ago you would have called me a ‘fringe candidate.’” Of course he was right. But the debate elevated Sanders to Clinton’s level.

When she shook his hand in a spontaneous act of appreciation for his support for her on the “email issue,” Clinton sealed the pact that they are equals. By elevating Bernie to her level, her handshake and the overall debate have elevated Sanders to equal status.

You may disagree with me; I respect disagreement. But I think Sanders won a whole lot more than he lost Tuesday night. He has now “rolled up” every gun owner in the Democratic Party, of which there are still many. He showed that while he is true to his agenda, Clinton will not commit to real reform, such as by breaking up the Wall Street banks, because she and her husband are still tethered to Wall Street and the “economic royalists” in the Democratic Party who support their extravagant lifestyle. And Sanders’ (misplaced) gallantry in defending Clinton on the email scandal elevated him to equal status with her in the Party.

Bernie Sanders is not going away, he is not going to end his campaign if she wins a majority of the delegates, and he and his supporters will be a major force at the Democratic National Convention. Bernie’s just begun to fight.

[To ensure no one is confused, just because I write favorably about Sanders does not mean I agree with him. When I write as a Republican, I am a Republican. When I write as an analyst and media critic, I try to be neutral and impartial.]

Inclosing, I have made clear that while I am a candidate, I don’t expect to win the nomination. But I still intend to influence the presidential race and I have a track record of doing so. In three of the last four presidential elections my independent conservative activism was a significant factor, especially 2000 and 2008. Stay tuned.

New York News Conference-Andy Martin says Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has “castrated” President Barack Obama

Republican Party presidential candidate and Obama author/expert Andy Martin will hold a New York City news conference today, Sunday, October 11th, to suggest that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has “castrated” President Barack Obama. Obama’s neutering has triggered both a foreign policy and domestic political crisis for the United States. Andy predicted in 2007 that Obama would not be able to stand the stress of the Oval Office. “Barack Obama today is a man in denial,” Andy says. “Obama is a man in the fetal position. He is a man in the midst of a mental disintegration or, as we used to say, ‘nervous breakdown.’ The consequences of Obama’s emotional and mental collapse are creating a constitutional crisis both for U. S. foreign policy and for American domestic politics.” Andy points to the Obama interview Sunday evening on CBS’ “60 Minutes” as reflecting the classic example of a man holding delusional beliefs and acting on the basis of a growing personality disorder. “If the U. S. president cannot face reality, and confront reality and act on the basis of reality, then every American is endangered. That is the unavoidable truth as Obama plays ‘pretend president’ in the Oval Office.”

(New York) (October 11, 2015) Republican presidential candidate and Obama author/expert Andy Martin will hold a New York news conference today, Sunday, October 11th to suggest that President Barack Obama has been “castrated” by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and that Obama is now a “pretend president,” in the fetal position in the Oval office. Andy says Obama manifests all of the signs of a both growing personality disorder and “nervous breakdown.”

“President Obama is being interviewed Sunday night on CBS’s ‘60 Minutes,’” [please see links [1] and [2] below] Andy says. “Anyone who watches that interview has to come away with the impression of a man who is delusional, who is in a total state of denial and breakdown as to the reality he faces both overseas and at home.

“The last time an American president was incapacitated was almost a hundred years ago. President Wilson suffered a stroke and was unable to function. Today, President Obama is effectively ‘disabled’ as a result of being publicly castrated by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. I know the word ‘castration’ is an odious one, but there is no other way to describe what Putting has done to Obama.

“American foreign policy is in a shambles. The secretary of defense looks like a clown. Secretary of State Kerry is a jerk. Vladimir Putin is pummeling Obama on a daily basis.

“For seventy years after the end of WW II, American presidents were the epitome of leadership, strength and power. Only once, after a Kennedy-Khrushchev meeting in 1961, did a Russian leader feel confident enough to defy a U. S. president; the result was the Cuban Missile Crisis.

“I was part of the Cold War [see Andy’s Cold War commendation at http://www.andymartin.com/cert.htm]. Obama made fun of the Cold War during a 2012 debate with Mitt Romney. From his past statements it is clear that Obama thinks of himself as a ‘redeemer’ and ‘savior’. Over the early years of his administration Obama’s delusions were harmless to Americans even if they were increasingly lethal to Iraqis and others. Now his state of mind has become a serious national security concern.

“Obama has locked himself into a belief system based on his own rigid delusions. He tells CBS that Putin is a failure, while Putin is issuing orders to U. S. troops and killing our allies. Obama says that Russia is a failure, while Russia is invading Syria and taking some of the boldest military actions since the start of WW II. Only a person suffering from a nervous breakdown and personality disorder could ignore the reality Obama faces, and claim that ‘all is well’ and that ‘all is working well.’ Failed states can often exert power and take disruptive action; North Korea is another example.

“Obama has repeatedly capitulated to Putin. Where the point of ‘castration’ was passed it is hard to say. But today Obama is seen throughout the world as a helpless, harmless, hapless Kenyan bicycle repair man working out of a stall in a Mombassa slum. He is not the ‘leader of the free world’ or the ‘most powerful man in the world.’ Obama is a political eunuch.

“Let’s review the record. First, there was Ukraine. Obama has repeatedly mouthed Neville Chamberlain’s refrain about Czechoslovakia (‘a quarrel in a far-away country between people of whom we know nothing’) about Ukraine. In point of fact, President Clinton signed an agreement, the Budapest Memorandum, (see [4] below) committing the U. S. to protect Ukraine. When Obama abandoned Ukraine he was planting the seeds of a new war just as certainly as Chamberlain precipitated WW II when he surrendered Czechoslovakia to Hitler. Obama betrayed Ukraine and Putin scored his first victory. But not his last.

“Obama and his court jester John Kerry pretended to be ‘surprised’ a few days ago when Putin invaded Syria. They were ‘shocked’ when one of Putin’s officers walked into an American facility and started giving orders to the U.S. military. Obama & Co. are neutering our military by ordering them to ‘avoid’ Russian forces in the Middle East. With each passing surrender Obama is bringing us closer to war (see [3] below).

“Obama, of course doesn’t think so. He believes he can ‘surrender’ his way out of the White House. All of us have petty, minor delusions. But when a person starts believing ‘facts’ which objectively do not exist, and starts placing himself in a context which does not exist, then he is taking on the trappings of mental illness and a nervous breakdown.

“Eight years ago, in a Psychological Profile of Barack Obama (available on the Internet) which became the first chapter of my book on Obama (see below), I predicted Obama would collapse in the Oval Office. I predicted he could not stand the stress and strain of military leadership. How right I was.

“Putin is a veteran cold-blooded KGB officer, straight out of central casting from the Cold War. He has contempt for Obama. He humiliates Obama. He ridicules Obama. And Obama accepts all of this abuse. At some point Putin’s abuses collectively castrated Obama. Today we have a Soviet castrato in the White House.

“Some people have always suspected Obama of being a ‘Manchurian Candidate,’ a front-man for communism and an agent of America’s enemies. Whatever Obama was in 2009, today he is effectively acting as the ‘Manchurian President.’ He is not functioning as an American leader. His emotional and mental and psychological collapse endangers every American and jeopardizes world peace.

“Obama is capitulating to Putin and Putin knows it. Putin’s abuses are going to continue, until they can’t be allowed to continue and war breaks out. How can that happen? Well, here is one example. Putin is moving powerful anti-aircraft radars into Syria. Remember Malaysia flight 370, shot down over the Ukraine? It could happen again in Syria. It almost certainly will happen if Obama keeps surrendering. Then what?

“Obama’s collapse is setting the stage for war, possibly (though not likely) while he is still in office but in all probability after he leaves office. Obama’s successor will inherit bitter fruit.

“Obama has been engaging in self-glorification about his ‘legacy’ and is planning to construct a billion-dollar mausoleum to his administration in Chicago. Yes, I said ‘mausoleum.’ But in the meantime, Obama has rendered himself a pretend president. He has functionally died in office; he is dead to the reality of the world in which he lives and leads, a man crumbled into the fetal position on the floor of the Oval Office. And all this has been done to Obama, and to America, by a leader (Putin) that Obama ridicules as a ‘failed president.’ Putin may ultimately and eventually lead his people to disaster; but today there is only one ‘failed president’ in the picture: Barack Hussein Obama,” Andy will charge Sunday.

Copies of Andy’s book on Obama are available from the publisher (see below).
