Biden's Fall...

And then there it is. One stupid comment ends Biden’s Presidential campaign the day that it begins. It may be a record for the quickest burn-up in primary entry. The sad fact is no one really believes that Biden is a racist. At the same time, Biden has never practiced the control needed to be a top tier Democrat. In another time, he would have been Kerry’s Secretary of State or someone’s VP. Now, he will just fade into the distance being a foot-note in Presidential campaigns going down in flames both in ‘88 and ‘08.

Last month I'd been traslating some compilation of US political history. It's full of official statements and court opinions. It's nice to read something earthly.

Sounds interesting. What court cases have you been working on?

I'm not working on court cases to be strictly speaking. It's just a translating piece for some material what I suspected for a political science thesis, "Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. V. Sawyer" and "United Sates V. Nixon," for example, the milestones in US history demonstrating the virtue of US political system.
Even though I am starting to doubt from the operation to the theoretical basis of democracy, it is still a comfort that I can extract from these two cases.

Remember the U.S. is a strict Republican form of government not a true Democracy. Democracy, like many other isms (communisms) can only exist in small groups. In large groups, Republics have been the only successful democratic forms of governments.
