One man’s ascension to power

One man’s ascension to power
Al Ritter

I was born outside the country I lead

I was raised by my mother and mistreated by my father

I associate with the religion of my parents, but changed my allegiance later in life

I lived a carefree bohemian lifestyle in my adolescence

I have little past history to share about my youth

I went from school to school never finding my place until later in life

I adopted my political beliefs from my surroundings

I secretly hold distain for those who support me, based on capitalism and race

I use the capitalistic system to obtain my power, but disavowed it after completing my mission

I speak out against capitalism, and embraced the average worker, and industrialists

I wrote my autobiography in my early adult life

I followed the socialistic writings of a major living icon

I never obtained praise from actual successes, only perceptions

I appeal to all to gain the powerful status, then, abandoned them as goals were obtained

I was groomed by a mentor on how to dress, how to walk, and how to speak in public

I have an oratorical gift rivaled by none, and refine it as time goes on

I believe I am entitled to the position, by the “will of the people”

I appeal to everyone on unity and patriotism, and change

I have demonized every group that doesn’t support my ideals, and policies

I have systematically banished, or eliminated every threat to my political security

I have appointed a spokesperson to tell the people what is the truth and what isn’t

I keep files on those I consider to be my enemies

I sealed my personal records early in my career, especially my genealogy and health records

I rose to power during a time of economic downturn, by blaming the other party for its inception

I declared the communists as corrupt and dishonest

I have shown blatant racism publicly, and refused to apologize for it

I gave the public a new icon to replace the one that represented the poor policies of the past

I have violated the Constitution by using appointees rather than elected officials, thereby securing one party rule

I have violated the Constitution by combining the Legislative and Executive branches of the government

I have purposely installed Muslims in the military because they show a “determination and drive”

I have united the people under the massive unemployment, and promised them success based on borrowed debt, and a pride of country, and hope

My actions are those of a Narcissist, I micro manage everything from large to small and belittle all those opinions contrary to mine, even when failure is certain

If all this seems familiar, then history hasn’t escaped you!
