Rebirth in America

Chapter 317 Presidential Election

?For most of 1960, Alex has been busy clearing the curse, rushing to Vietnam to find the dark forest, and killing the poisonous Earl Cain.

During that year, the United States was busy with the presidential campaign, and almost no one paid attention to what happened to the Carpenter family. No one knew that Alex left New York, USA, and entered the war-torn Vietnam as Wang Lung.

Earlier that year, around April, Neustadt, a political scientist at Columbia University, wrote a book called "Presidential Power."

In this book, Neustadt believes that a strong president can improve government speed and policy viability. He sought to clarify how a president can effectively form power.

"The sixties, it seems, will be an era of fighting!" Neustadt predicted. In fact, he was a scientist controlled by the Illuminati organization. Although he does not know the existence of higher levels, his spiritual philosophy and scientific research direction are quite consistent with the Illuminati.

"We need a president who can command skillfully, a president who is energetic and motivated!" Neustadt appealed loudly, and he was quickly spotted by presidential candidate Kennedy, and was soon recruited into the campaign. Within the advisory group.

As a public figure controlled by the Illuminati, Neustadt's remarks and books have aroused considerable repercussions in society.

Kennedy and Neustadt have similar views. Kennedy believes: "The president must serve as a catalyst, an energizer, and should be the defender of public happiness and public interests! He must devote himself to where the battle is fiercest, because The President is the most critical center of operations in the entire system of government!”

"Energy," "fighting," "vitality," "public interest," etc., these words often appeared in Kennedy's slogans when he was campaigning, because they matched Kennedy's temperament quite well. At that time, the American people saw a candidate in the young and promising Congressman Mr. Kennedy. One is the old and frail Vice President, Mr. Nixon, and many people subconsciously prefer Kennedy.

A closer look at Kennedy's political career reveals this. His rise to high political positions was rapid. Kennedy was elected to the House of Representatives in 1946 and the Senate in 1952. Became president at age 43! What can be said is that his personal qualities and charisma were so attractive that his character was exaggerated by the public, the media and especially by his admirers.

In fact, Kennedy was not perfect. "*Love*First*Sentence"

First, he hid his Addison's disease from the public so as not to jeopardize his political career.

Secondly, in World War II. The Purple Heart he received was actually due to his poor seamanship. Although he heroically rescued his sailors after the accident, he concealed the truth of the accident.

There is also Kennedy with his book "Biographies of the Brave". Winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1957 brought him great fame, but in fact the book was ghostwritten by one of his assistants, and it was not known until long after Kennedy's death.

Regardless, Kennedy was in the presidential race. narrowly defeated Nixon. Kennedy won 49.7% of the popular vote, and Nixon won 49.6%. Kennedy actually won fewer states than Nixon. Before the results came out, many people thought that Nixon would win.

Such advantages are as thin as paper. Without a dominant position in Congress, Kennedy could not expect much help from the new members of Congress whom he recommended. However, Kennedy was indeed a natural politician who was good at turning disadvantages into advantages.

After becoming president, he used various tactics and struggles to gain the support of the minority, and used coercion and coercion to get other members to compromise with him. His influence soon spread from the presidential office to Congress.

However, his approach offended many congressmen and made many people resentful. Even the kindest congressman sometimes grumbles, "President Kennedy is so arrogant and intolerant that I just can't talk to him."

In terms of religious belief, the Kennedy family believes in Catholicism. This made Kennedy very passive during the election, because the United States is a country founded by Protestants, and Catholicism and Protestantism have irreconcilable conflicts.

In the beginning, the Protestants fled to the American continent to escape Catholic persecution and established the American regime. No Catholic had ever been president of the United States before, and many Protestants refused to support the Democratic Party, but Kennedy won 80 percent of the Catholic vote, rather than the 63 percent that National Party candidates could usually count on.

In general, religion posed certain constraints, and disagreements over religious issues cost Kennedy many votes.

As the first Catholic president, Kennedy took extreme counter-arguments to dispel suspicions of church influence. He disapproved of sending U.S. ambassadors to the Vatican, and he similarly opposed going against the rules to support diocesan schools.

Soon, Kennedy proved that a Catholic could serve as President of the United States without being influenced by religion.

During the U.S. presidential election, this is a moment for the entire nation to place bets. For ordinary people, they cast their votes and enthusiasm for one of the candidates, hoping that he can bring them a better life and future.

For some powerful small business owners and companies, they support candidates who can represent their own interests, hoping that after he becomes president, he can make government policies support their companies. In addition to casting their votes, they will also provide large and small political donations, as well as various event venues that are convenient for candidates to canvass votes.

When you rise to the position of a wealthy family like the Kennedy family, Disney family, etc., there are two ways to participate in this kind of universal betting activity.

One way is to bet on both sides. You can win or lose. It just depends on which side you bet more on. Even if you lose, it won't be too bad. You still have a chance to recoup the cost. You just have to wait for the next presidential election.

Another way is to go shirtless in person, as is the case with the Kennedy family. They personally sent family representatives to participate in this kind of gambling. However, this method is to spend money and increase the stakes. If you win, you will naturally be full of money. If you lose, your energy will probably be severely damaged and difficult to recover.

If you look further up, for those at the top of the pyramid, this kind of activity is just a battle of ideas and has nothing to do with issues of interest. For example, the Rockefeller Group, the Morgan Group, the Hughes Group, the Carpenter Family, etc. will arrange the candidates they support based on the organizations they join.

Regardless of whether the candidate they support is elected or not, it will not have a great impact on the interests they already have. However, for these "human masters" who can survive longer than ordinary people, the immediate benefits are only superficial. They need to see the benefits in the next ten, twenty or even hundreds of thousands of years.

In which direction do they hope human society will develop, whether it will develop quickly or slowly, slowly or urgently, etc. Everyone has their own ideas and concepts. Even if the tofu is sweet or salty, some people will have to fight, not to mention which direction the world they live in will develop, they will definitely have to fight.

This is the so-called struggle of ideas. People with different paths cannot work together!

For this kind of struggle, Alex has not yet gone deep into it, especially since such a big thing happened to the Carpenter family, he simply can't care about these insignificant things.

If the Jonathans were still here, they might have used various ways to influence the election process, perhaps not by using money, but just by saying a few words to the candidates they supported.

Of course, the greater possibility is that the Jonathans simply ignore this. This situation is also quite common among "people superior to others". After all, the world is so big, it is impossible for everyone to gather in the United States and compete for that little bit of influence to influence the entire world.

Influencing the U.S. presidential campaign is just one way to change the world. If the Jonathans feel unhappy one day, they may be able to change many things in the world with a wave of their hands, it just depends on personal needs and ideas. Some influences are invisible and silent, and only people in a specific circle will know where this influence comes from.

Alex is also using his own way to influence the world, such as technological inventions, music, novels, movies, TV, etc. His influence has shown huge changes in many aspects, at least in terms of technology, music and movies, as the world is getting closer and closer to the future.

At first, Alex just pushed it gently, and then it rolled like a falling snowball, getting bigger and bigger. All kinds of new things emerge in an endless stream, and many scientists, musical talents and movie stars who were unknown in later generations have appeared one after another. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net They have brought many new gadgets and changes to the world.

This confirmed one of his original thoughts: "Human inventions and creativity are endless. Just because he copied something from later generations, the talents of this world will not become lifeless and make them have no achievements. . On the contrary, the emergence of new ideas and inventions can actually inspire more new ideas and inventions."

The development of human society is a process of accumulation. When it reaches a certain level, it will roll faster and bigger like a snowball.

Just imagine, if there is a person in the future who brings all kinds of future knowledge, inventions, and ideas to a certain era, so that people of that era can draw nourishment from them, the development of that era will gain a A dramatic improvement.

Alex plays such a role. He only provides the initial impetus in various fields, and then just stands aside to watch how it develops.

In other words, Alex is the creator of history. His influence has changed human society and accelerated its development. [End of this chapter]
