Trump and Berlusconi, the pied pipers

Luckily, the bear in a few. Less than those who still bear Mrs. Sarah Palin, increasingly unpopular and put into a corner by his own creations, like Michele Bachmann, similar to preparation (not received) but still more than the usual monotonous refrain in the President. Basically to make policy, it takes a little 'common sense, preparation and ideas, right and left.

On that discussion and he is facing. Yet the temptation to be charmed by the "pied pipers" who, with the unique gift of their wealth, they promise easy and painless solutions (do not do it nor the Democrats nor the Republicans with common sense) is always around the corner: in Italy, in United States and probably anywhere in the world.

So, a few weeks, the television scene is unnecessarily disturbed by the recurring presence of man with the most horrible haircut in the world: Mr. Donald Trump. The billionaire Republican (much loved by those Republicans who have eaten bread and politics throughout his life) jumps transmission transmission, to tell Americans that he has all the answers and that there is a golden crown in the most amazing brain a magician's magic hat, where you can pull out everything you need to fix the national debt, restructure the economy and maybe even win three or four wars.

Despite the apparent unreliability of the special effects promised by old Donald, many Americans are willing to believe him. Just as happened with Silvio Berlusconi. Because, unfortunately, personal wealth is often confused with the ability to provide wealth to all the other (perhaps forgetting that the wealth may have been gained at the expense of others who now promises to make rich and happy).

Donald Silvio and then not only have this in common. Similar to become dangerous is the ability to throw mud at some enemy of his country. For the Italian prime minister's enemies of the homeland (as his enemies) are the judges for Donald Trump the enemy of his country (as his "adversary") is President Obama, "American abuses." Trump, supported by Ms.

Palin, who was desperately trying to riattirare media attention, there is nothing better to do than to promise the impossible, to insist on the history that the president would not be born in the United States. Nor does the fact that George Stephanopoulos, during its transmission, has shown a birth certificate of Obama, has convinced the New York palazzinari to toe with his allegations absolutely racist.

Never before, in fact, someone had denied, in a manner so free, an element abundantly proved by documents. The fact that Mr. Trump does not clearly pleased that an African American born into a modest family, raised by a single mother, is able to become president of the United States (which we hope will not happen to him) gives him no right to insist on a so arrogant attitude.

Unfortunately, the pied pipers know you do not have much to offer, and then try to "sleep" the electorate with their unbearable dirges.
