Asia is Rising

Thu, 01 Jul 2010 13:02:24 +0000

There are many naysayers out there today about the future of America. Without going down that route, it is clear to everyone now that Asia and especially China is on the rise. There are more and more investors eying China and its surrounding countries in hope of making money on Chinese capital growth. Of course companies invested in China like ARC China before the great crash of 2008 and have securely put themselves in the driver seat for the future, while others have not.

Yet the story does not end with China. India is also becoming a powerhouse, which can be seen in one of their leading technology and industry firms Mahindra has decided to invest heavily in developing space technology.

Singapore as well has appeared to finally reach the big leagues as property values have reached high and remained strong.

These examples are just of the indicators that East Asia has moved passed the new kid in town and has achieved the stature of big man in charge. Now the question is when do we decide to join them and realize that we may not be able to hold onto our manifest destinational outlook.

Non Profit Charities More Dendable Than US Government

Tue, 29 Jun 2010 11:12:42 +0000

There are many people in need around the world. Some are hit by poverty, while others are lacking a good education. Here in America, we share these same problems and yet the answer by this administration is to increase gov’t spending. We all know this is quickly putting us in the poor house, yet what is the answer? I believe non profit charity organizations like AmeriCares or Blue Star Families have a much more proven success rate than our gov’t. The gov’t should encourage people to donate and even supply some green themselves.

BP Oil Spill: A True Example of Incompetence

Sun, 13 Jun 2010 07:49:12 +0000

Incompetence can be summed up in many ways, but one example can be classified as trying to do something that consistently fails. No where more is this exemplified as in present with the BP Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It has been nearly 2 months and still no end of the leaking is in site. I would venture to guess this is proof of not only BP’s incompetence, but the White House’s as well.

I have one recommendation to them: If you can’t stand the heat…then get out.

Free Gaza Flotilla: “Peace Activists” Are Nothing More Than Terrorists

Mon, 31 May 2010 13:47:00 +0000

With all of the news coming out of Israel and the Middle East dealing with Israel’s response to Free Gaza Flotilla Aid Vessels, one should keep this in mind: The Israel Defense Force has already said that the incident related to around the world only took place on one of the vessels. The other vessels listened to the IDF’s instructions and passively stood down in order to go to Ashdod and see their supplies delivered to Gaza by land. The boat where 10 “peace activists” were killed harbored people who have been known to piggy back on peaceful missions and use them to create violent confrontations such as the one here.

The Free Gaza Flotilla “peace activists” shot at IDF soldiers that were armed with paint ball guns and small hand guns (on the off chance there would be violence), stabbed them, and hit them with metal bats. Our American armed forces would have responded in kind. Take a look at the video below to see how unpeaceful these Free Gaza Flotilla “peace activists” really were:

and of course there is fine proof of there peaceful intentions:

On a connected note I have noticed a lot of accusations that this broke international law being in International Waters. The following information should put that to rest:
International Law as Connected to Running Blockades

On a personal note I want to let the Israeli people know that the American people support you and your sovereignty.

Stock Market Crash and Greg Oden

Tue, 25 May 2010 14:43:44 +0000

I can’t help but wonder if people learned to pay less attention to basketball stars like Greg Oden and rather focused on saving our economy, but creating meaningful productive jobs where we would be. The over focus of our already juiced celebrity society detaches us from the reality in which we live. From the BP Oil Spill to the self destructing economy, America needs bold leadership to steer it away from its crash course with the dustbin of history.

BP Oil Spill: Is it the End?

Sun, 16 May 2010 05:45:55 +0000

Hmmm. Sure seems so or at least the beginning of the end of this current President’s reign as mister smooth. I am not placing the blame on the disaster on the President or his staff, rather his response has been mediocre at best. Clearly the President is hoping that this spill just goes away or at the very least BP can do something about it, but that is wishful thinking. The oil is coming closer, so it would be in this administration’s self interest (at least they have that right?) to tackle this thing.

Terrorist Bomb in Times Square

Thu, 06 May 2010 11:13:24 +0000

For many the close call New York got as far as the not so successful car bomb in Time Square has served as a wake up call for many Americans. It is notable that the administration failed to acknowledge at first what this was: an act of terrorism. Now the terrorist: Faisal Shahzad is a Pakistani who admits that he was bothered by America’s targeted assassinations of Taliban leaders in Pakistan. These are the same Taliban leaders targeting our troops in Afghanistan.

Although the President has acknowledged a possible connection to the Taliban, it is clear that the Administration has not admitted that the Taliban has opened up another front in its war and that is located here in our homeland.

Its time that the President and his Administration do what it takes to uproot Islamic Fundamentalism as well as start protecting American citizen.

The next time we won’t be so lucky.

Choosing to Do Something…

Tue, 27 Apr 2010 08:49:31 +0000

It wasn’t easy deciding to get up and try to change our Country, but I felt and still do that it is better to try to make a difference than just sitting and watching our great nation fall by the waste side. Whether I am successful or not I am taking satisfaction that I didn’t stand idly by.

Welcome to My Presidential Blog

Mon, 26 Apr 2010 11:24:16 +0000

Ok, first you might be asking: “Who the hell is Matt Kennard?” Second, you are probably wondering: “Why is he running for President?”

Let me first say that there are a few Matt Kennards out there. One is a famous British Actor and another is an excellent journalist out of NYC. I am neither of those gentlemen. I am merely a concerned citizen that has decided to leap onto the precedent set by President Barak Hussein Obama in attaining the office of President without being known and also being entirely unqualified.

I figure that now the door is open to anyone to run for President…even me.

I believe that answers those two questions. Please read my opinions and views on what matters most to us Americans and I think you’ll see that what I am about is “Change” and that I have the knowledge to make it happen.
