QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

If you are even a little bit like Linden (and it is probably just as well if you are not), the events of the day often leave you with more questions than it does answers. Today, instead of attempting to answer your questions, I present three links, each of which may provide you with an answer to a question that has been bugging you.

OTHER STUFF

On Monday, Kent picked me up about 6:30 and we went to Danville to a Legislative Breakfast…good food and good presentations. Later, I went to two stores, credit union, post office, and by the church where I visited for just a minute with the two ladies from Milligan College who are staying at the Mission House. I did a bit of writing, it is not progressing fast enough.

LOOKING WEST TO UTAH:

The importance of this election year is not restricted to only the race for the Presidency…no, it is of almost equal importance if we are to rid our nation from the grasp of do-nothing other than spend “leaders’ we now are saddled with, that conservatives gain control of both the House and the Senate.

In this vein, Linden stumbled upon the news that Utah has a newly created District where at least four candidates are running in the June 26 primary election. It is a bit too early for Linden to make an endorsement but he was favorably impressed with the Mia Love presentations. Perhaps partially because of the happy thought of having a black, female, conservative as part of the Congressional Black Caucus.

OTHER STUFF

Men’s Prayer Breakfast on Friday as usual brought good food and a good program. Other than Brian answering a TV access related question for me, I can think of little activity on Saturday other than talking to him and Julie as I also did on Friday. Sunday brought church services and Sunday school followed by brunch with friends and little activity in the afternoon. Steve White’s sermon started with referring to Matthew 20:29 and the subject of blindness. He closed by referring to two kinds of people: lost and saved. In Sunday school, Larry Vandeventer led the class through the final chapters of Matthew.

FAIR SHARE = WHAT?

Linden believes that President Obama thinks that we believe him when he says that tax rates should be increased on those he classifies as rich. Some, including Linden, think that “fair share” as it pertains to taxation should mean that every American person receiving income should pay some income tax. A difference of opinion seems to exist.

The first link below addresses taxpayer employees who are apparently failing to pay their “fair share.” How can this be? The second link regards voting fairness. Surely none would disagree that each qualifying American is entitled to one vote. Anything in excess of this one vote is an excess of their “fair share.” Some, including Linden, view it as an attack on America.

ANOTHER SMALLISH MISTAKE

Linden believes that most of us would agree that one million is a figure that is hard to easily visualize, one billion is even more difficult and one trillion is beyond imagination…even though all of these numbers are thrown around in Washington as if they had no real dollar related meaning. We would also probably agree that it would be desirable for our nation to be released from our dependence on largely mid-east oil. For President Obama to stop the development of the Keystone Pipeline causes Linden to question just how much regard our President has for our country.

The number of American jobs not gained by the unfortunate decision of the President has been estimated to be from 20,000 up to ten times that number. If we accept the lower number and estimate the average pay per job to be only $50,000.00, we arrive at the amount of one billion dollars in unrealized pay. At a tax rate of only 15%, the lost revenue is 150 million dollars per year. One must ask, “is the President on the side of America?”

OTHER STUFF

I started my day by scanning the morning paper and eating biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A. Jack and Helen came in when I was almost ready to leave…we visited a bit. I mailed the tax form that I prepared yesterday and picked up more mail than I wanted to go through. In the evening, I had dinner at church and attended a program after dinner. Shortly after I returned home, Brian called and we had a long visit.

SOTU = MEANINGLESS

This, Linden made the wrong choice last night: he could have happily watched The Shawshank Redemption…well, perhaps happily is the wrong word, as the movie certainly has some less than happy moments. But, no! He chose to watch the State Of The Union message from our “leader”.

He spoke glowingly of the military…a group he has largely disparaged for most of the last three years. He will do everything he can to help business succeed…his approach in this area to date has been flawed. Oil and gas may be okay but green energy is the answer…aaaargh!

Although there was the usual tax the rich mantra, there was no mention of any logical reason to stall the pipeline construction and on and on and on. The frequent applause lessened Linden’s opinion of a Senate that has been unable to pass a budget for 1,000 days. Meaningless!

Mitch Daniels made a much better presentation: “the condition of the country is grave”. “providing government jobs with borrowed money is not the answer” and Medicare and Social Security problems must be addressed. Linden should have watched the movie.

OTHER STUFF

It was mostly a quiet day at home interrupted for a time by one of my least favorite tasks…preparing my 2011 book and CD sales tax report. This tax form is not difficult and, once the records are found, presents little problem. No, the problem arises when I do self-evaluation as to why my sales are miniscule when compared to what they would be with a competent sales oriented manager. My best idea to date is to ask for prayer…we may try that in 2013.

35 X $5 X 2

This, of course, is written with the thought in mind of showing tangible support for those who would or could oppose those 35 members of the Indiana House who intentionally fail to report for duty. Not surprisingly, they are all democrats.

If each one of these slackers were opposed in both the primary and general elections at this level, the $5 per opposed “Representative” is a very small amount of money and the total of $350 is not a huge amount. However, if 10,000 people decided to adopt this method of attempting to rid our State of these non-producers, it could have a very positive effect. Think about it!

OTHER STUFF

Biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A provided a happy start for my day. Then, I picked up my mail (nothing exciting) at the post office and went by the church to drop off a reservation for a trip to Johnson Bible University later this spring and to welcome Bob Nysewander back to work after time off to recuperate from surgery. Picked up the rest of my mail at the mailbox and spent the rest of the day inside working on various aspects of a writing project.

A GLIMMER OF HOPE

At a time when the citizens of Indiana are being treated to evidence of the democrat members of our state legislature proving beyond a shadow of doubt why they should never be returned to office, it is pure pleasure to read of a spontaneous show of support for Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.

Reports indicate that his reforms have resulted in that state moving from a budget deficit to a budget surplus, taxes being reduced, and school districts becoming solvent. It is hard to understand how any taxpayer could be opposed to the changes he has put into effect. Yet, a serious effort is being waged to nullify his election. The link below addresses a show of support for Governor Walker.

WHEN LIBERALS RUN CITIES

Look at almost any large U.S. city such as Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., New York, New Orleans, Chicago, and Los Angeles and you will that the politics of the city is dominated by liberals and the city is marked with a degree of mismanagement and corruption that causes one to wonder about the intelligence level of those that are electing their leaders. It is sad!

The article linked below mentions such a condition in Detroit and mentions four members of Congress that any thinking person would agree have been “serving” far too long. Look closely at any one of the four and you will probably find that they have been adept at serving themselves.

If the standard is that a church, if it is to remain tax exempt, must not engage in partisan politics, one has to wonder how Ebenezer Baptist Church of Atlanta, Georgia manages to retain their tax exempt status. Although my memory may not be as good as it once was, it does seem like they have been presenting biased political rhetoric, such as that in the below link, for a long, long time. Sad!

URINATE WHERE?
It is a fact of life that urination is a normal process for the population at large and that the selection of where to do so is most often a personal choice. Much media attention in recent days has been given to the report that four U.S. Marines chose to urinate on the bodies of some deceased members of the Taliban. Not so much attention has been given to the fact that prior to their demise, they would have happily slit the throats of the Marines.
Linden believes that the whining about the affair by the current leaders of our country only serves to illustrate their lack of support for our military in general. Agggh!

PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN DAY 47

THIS SHOULD BE THE LAST POSTING WHICH FOCUSES ENTIRELY ON MY ELECTION EFFORT.

INTENTIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS
11-7 Being frugal, rarely vacationing, and not subscribing to cable television allowed Linden Swift to accumulate funds for a special 82^nd birthday event in early January 2012. The New Hampshire Presidential primary election was selected. Winning is the primary goal. Being under funded and probably the oldest candidate means that it would take a miracle to achieve this goal. Republican National Convention selection would require a second miracle. Therefore, a secondary goal is to exceed the 362 votes Al Sharpton amassed in a previous election. This could result in Linden being awarded his own TV show.
11-7 Read 1 Corinthians 9:24.
11-7 Consider Herman Cain for VP: a man with uncommon ability. Being twice as black as the President, he should receive twice as many racist motivated votes.
11-8 Consider Sarah Palin for VP: a woman with uncommon knowledge and ability. Even knows where Naknek, Alaska is located.
11-7 Campaign donations will not be solicited or accepted until after the Republican Convention.
11-9 Foreign policy will be set after reviewing recent successes. WAIT!…there are none!!! Now what?
11-7 Following completion of my term(s) I will have my Presidential pension reduced 10% per year until it reaches the level of workforce (non governmental) average pay.
11-10 If interns are allowed in my White House, they will not be allowed under my Presidential desk.
11-11 Linden will never refer to the Marine Corps as Marine Corpse.
11-14 If it is true that three former Fannie Mae executives and now President Obama helpers received almost 300 million dollars in bonuses, Linden, if elected, will attempt prosecution of them and others.
11-15 Linden plans to not authorize a Linden Swift Presidential Library at any time.
11-16 My You Tube Presidential Announcement video has the added comment, “you are such a racist.” I thought I was just presenting simple mathematics.
11-17 If elected, my Press Secretary will start press briefings by questioning the press about lack of coverage of important stories.
11-18 GOOD NEWS!!! I was just informed that my name will appear second on the New Hampshire ballot. This means that every uncommitted voter there should see my name. Maybe we will secure the hoped for 363 votes.
11-21 If elected, Linden will attempt to reduce U.S. contributions to the U.N. to little more than one half of one percent of the total cost…call that fairness.
11-22 If elected, Linden will not be issuing dietary advice from the White House.
11-23 If elected, Linden plans to fully discourage baseline budgeting.
11-25 If elected, Linden plans to fully discourage actions such as favored stock market trading.
11-28 After quickly viewing the New Hampshire list of 14 democrat Presidential candidates, including our current President, if forced to pick from that list, Linden would choose Vermin Supreme.
11-29 Christian action: Linden fully forgives those on the Editorial Board of the Manchester, NH Union Leader for endorsing a Presidential Candidate other than Linden.
11-30 GREAT NEWS!!! Barney Frank will leave Congress. Bad result: taxpayer funded pension.
12-1 If elected, Linden will work to change or perhaps abolish the National Labor Relations Board.
12-2 If Elected, Linden, as opposed to our current President, will not condone the expenditure of taxpayer funds to purchase books he has written.
12-5 Linden will continue to consider Herman Cain as his running mate: Linden believes the accusations made against Herman are without merit.
12-6 Linden’s analysis: Obama was half right…change came…hope is gone!
12-7 If elected, Linden will change the Bureau of Labor Statistics .
12-8 Unlike our current President, Linden will never say that it is great to be in Texas while in Kansas.
12-9 If elected, Linden’s administration will not supply firearms to the Mexican drug cartel.
12-12 If elected, valid copies of Linden’s birth certificate will be widely available.
12-13 If elected, Linden will make his educational grades available.
12-14 If elected, Linden will join in prosecuting administration tax cheats.
12-15 If elected, Linden, as opposed to the current occupant, will not rest his feet on White House furniture.
12-16 If elected, Linden, as opposed to our current President, will sincerely honor those who have, are, or will serve in the military.
12-19 If elected, Linden will support requiring voter id laws.
12-20 If not elected in New Hampshire, Linden will not run as a third party candidate. Further, he believes that anyone who votes for a third party candidate is effectively backing the current inept regime.
12-21 GOOD NEWS!!! It appears that my second campaign video will appear on New Hampshire Public Access Cable TV many times in early January.
12-22 If elected, I, as was true of President Bush, will stay in the White House at Christmas so that the holiday will be better for the Security Details.
12-23 If elected, Linden will never (as opposed to our current President) refer to reducing Social Security funding as a “tax cut”.
12-26 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current President) will view the day after Christmas as just another work day in the White House.
12-27 If elected, Linden, (as opposed to our current leader) will not intimate that the is the fourth best President.
12-28 If elected, Linden, (as opposed to our current leader) will not spend significant hours on the golf course.
12-29 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) will not permit military uniforms to accept non military headgear.
12-30 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) will not utter the words, “job killing tax cuts.”
1-2 Unlike our current leader, Linden will not say “here in Asia” while being in Hawaii.
1-3 If elected, Linden will not be the second President to attempt to force citizens to buy something like Obamacare.
1-4 Linden (as opposed to our current leader) would never sit in the same church for years while the pastor spewed hate.
1-5 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) would never appear to support the Muslim Brotherhood and abandon Israel.
1-6 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) will not make “recess appointments” when Congress is not in recess.
1-7 Linden’s Logic: taxpayers are likely to pay much less in total Presidential retirement pensions to one who is elected at age 82 than to one who is much younger.
1-9 If elected, Linden will attempt to sell Camp David and apply the proceeds to the national debt.
1-16 Linden will now suspend his campaign until the Republican National Convention.
11-8 Feel free to match this distribution by Sharon Herbitter of Alabama:
“Today I'm so thankful for my dear friend, Linden Swift. He has decided not to let a lack of funds, zero name recognition, or the fact that he'll turn 82 in two months keep him from seeking the New Hampshire Republican presidential nomination. Linden accomplishes twice as much in a day as most folks in their twenties do. He recently recorded his first cd, created a board game (to help homeschoolers learn about finances), and he writes a new book every time I turn around! He delights and inspires me. Wish I could vote for you, Linden! ♥ ♥ ♥”

LINDEN’S LIFE
I INTEND TO RETURN TO NORMAL POSTING ACTIVITY TOMORROW.
Since I wanted to focus on election related matters following my posting one week ago, I did not post on Tuesday (election day) through Friday of last week. As you probably know, I finished 24^th out of the 30 Republican candidates. Some election related items that occurred were: The New Hampshire VFW posted a copy of my You Tube Presidential Announcement, Brian told me that Rick Perry had also not made it to New Hampshire…said he probably wasn’t able to get a room either. The Indianapolis Fox news station came by for an interview on election day…it was enjoyable and Kent McPhail also said a few words on the video. I think Brian told me that night that he was the video in North Carolina and Lisa told me on Wednesday that she saw it in Maine. I had two more interviews on Wednesday and viewed the one from the Indianapolis Star on the Internet. The rest of the week was spent returning to normal activities although I continued to receive nice comments about this endeavor.

I am the Augustin featured author of the month (see above.) Guess which of the comments that have been added to my You Tube Presidential Announcement video I am most pleased with.

PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN DAY 46

THIS IS MY LAST POSTING UNTIL PROBABLY EITHER NEXT FRIDAY OR THE FOLLOWING MONDAY.

INTENTIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS

11-7 Being frugal, rarely vacationing, and not subscribing to cable television allowed Linden Swift to accumulate funds for a special 82^nd birthday event in early January 2012. The New Hampshire Presidential primary election was selected. Winning is the primary goal. Being under funded and probably the oldest candidate means that it would take a miracle to achieve this goal. Republican National Convention selection would require a second miracle. Therefore, a secondary goal is to exceed the 362 votes Al Sharpton amassed in a previous election. This could result in Linden being awarded his own TV show.

11-7 Read 1 Corinthians 9:24.

11-7 Consider Herman Cain for VP: a man with uncommon ability. Being twice as black as the President, he should receive twice as many racist motivated votes.

11-8 Consider Sarah Palin for VP: a woman with uncommon knowledge and ability. Even knows where Naknek, Alaska is located.

11-7 Campaign donations will not be solicited or accepted until after the Republican Convention.

11-9 Foreign policy will be set after reviewing recent successes. WAIT!…there are none!!! Now what?

11-7 Following completion of my term(s) I will have my Presidential pension reduced 10% per year until it reaches the level of workforce (non governmental) average pay.

11-10 If interns are allowed in my White House, they will not be allowed under my Presidential desk.

11-11 Linden will never refer to the Marine Corps as Marine Corpse.

11-14 If it is true that three former Fannie Mae executives and now President Obama helpers received almost 300 million dollars in bonuses, Linden, if elected, will attempt prosecution of them and others.

11-15 Linden plans to not authorize a Linden Swift Presidential Library at any time.

11-16 My You Tube Presidential Announcement video has the added comment, “you are such a racist.” I thought I was just presenting simple mathematics.

11-17 If elected, my Press Secretary will start press briefings by questioning the press about lack of coverage of important stories.

11-18 GOOD NEWS!!! I was just informed that my name will appear second on the New Hampshire ballot. This means that every uncommitted voter there should see my name. Maybe we will secure the hoped for 363 votes.

11-21 If elected, Linden will attempt to reduce U.S. contributions to the U.N. to little more than one half of one percent of the total cost…call that fairness.

11-22 If elected, Linden will not be issuing dietary advice from the White House.

11-23 If elected, Linden plans to fully discourage baseline budgeting.

11-25 If elected, Linden plans to fully discourage actions such as favored stock market trading.

11-28 After quickly viewing the New Hampshire list of 14 democrat Presidential candidates, including our current President, if forced to pick from that list, Linden would choose Vermin Supreme.

11-29 Christian action: Linden fully forgives those on the Editorial Board of the Manchester, NH Union Leader for endorsing a Presidential Candidate other than Linden.

11-30 GREAT NEWS!!! Barney Frank will leave Congress. Bad result: taxpayer funded pension.

12-1 If elected, Linden will work to change or perhaps abolish the National Labor Relations Board.

12-2 If Elected, Linden, as opposed to our current President, will not condone the expenditure of taxpayer funds to purchase books he has written.

12-5 Linden will continue to consider Herman Cain as his running mate: Linden believes the accusations made against Herman are without merit.

12-6 Linden’s analysis: Obama was half right…change came…hope is gone!

12-7 If elected, Linden will change the Bureau of Labor Statistics .

12-8 Unlike our current President, Linden will never say that it is great to be in Texas while in Kansas.

12-9 If elected, Linden’s administration will not supply firearms to the Mexican drug cartel.

12-12 If elected, valid copies of Linden’s birth certificate will be widely available.

12-13 If elected, Linden will make his educational grades available.

12-14 If elected, Linden will join in prosecuting administration tax cheats.

12-15 If elected, Linden, as opposed to the current occupant, will not rest his feet on White House furniture.

12-16 If elected, Linden, as opposed to our current President, will sincerely honor those who have, are, or will serve in the military.

12-19 If elected, Linden will support requiring voter id laws.

12-20 If not elected in New Hampshire, Linden will not run as a third party candidate. Further, he believes that anyone who votes for a third party candidate is effectively backing the current inept regime.

12-21 GOOD NEWS!!! It appears that my second campaign video will appear on New Hampshire Public Access Cable TV many times in early January.

12-22 If elected, I, as was true of President Bush, will stay in the White House at Christmas so that the holiday will be better for the Security Details.

12-23 If elected, Linden will never (as opposed to our current President) refer to reducing Social Security funding as a “tax cut”.

12-26 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current President) will view the day after Christmas as just another work day in the White House.

12-27 If elected, Linden, (as opposed to our current leader) will not intimate that the is the fourth best President.

12-28 If elected, Linden, (as opposed to our current leader) will not spend significant hours on the golf course.

12-29 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) will not permit military uniforms to accept non military headgear.

12-30 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) will not utter the words, “job killing tax cuts.”

1-2 Unlike our current leader, Linden will not say “here in Asia” while being in Hawaii.

1-3 If elected, Linden will not be the second President to attempt to force citizens to buy something like Obamacare.

1-4 Linden (as opposed to our current leader) would never sit in the same church for years while the pastor spewed hate.

1-5 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) would never appear to support the Muslim Brotherhood and abandon Israel.

1-6 If elected, Linden (as opposed to our current leader) will not make “recess appointments” when Congress is not in recess.

1-7 Linden’s Logic: taxpayers are likely to pay much less in total Presidential retirement pensions to one who is elected at age 82 than to one who is much younger.

1-9 If elected, Linden will attempt to sell Camp David and apply the proceeds to the national debt.

11-8 Feel free to match this distribution by Sharon Herbitter of Alabama:

“Today I'm so thankful for my dear friend, Linden Swift. He has decided not to let a lack of funds, zero name recognition, or the fact that he'll turn 82 in two months keep him from seeking the New Hampshire Republican presidential nomination. Linden accomplishes twice as much in a day as most folks in their twenties do. He recently recorded his first cd, created a board game (to help homeschoolers learn about finances), and he writes a new book every time I turn around! He delights and inspires me. Wish I could vote for you, Linden! ♥ ♥ ♥”

LINDEN’S LIFE

AFTER MONDAY I WILL TAKE A FEW DAYS OFF FROM POSTING.

On Saturday, I attended the Men’s Breakfast at Chapel Rock Christian…Fred Rodkey had a good message. Household stuff the rest of the day. Sunday brought church and Sunday school services followed by brunch with friends. Mostly watched sports in the afternoon. Kent and Donna brought me some packages of delicious flavored popcorn. fir
