For the past three to four years I recall TV and radio news highlighting the problem of bulling. Most of the stories centered on youth and the effects of bullying on the weak and shy.
What is the age limit for the media to stop bringing attention to the problem of bullying?
It seems once the political season began in 2015 the spotlight on bullying stopped.
This is just one outcome of the mechanics, of the media’s selective hearing. We the public, with weak attention spans, can see how the strings of the shadowy media puppeteer works.

After several months of hearing, watching and reading the obvious bullying tactics of Mr. Donald Trump the media still chooses to ignore labeling the billionaire bully a bully.
Above and beyond what may have been considered ‘typical’ negative campaign rhetoric are the overbearing comments, jabs and digs of Mr. Trumps run to the White house.
With many months to go before the Presidential election will the media continue to give Mr. Trump a pass on his bullying temper, techniques and overall aggressive tone?
Mr. Trump is one example of American dog eat dog success for which American youth can look up to. Or is he?
Does anyone seriously think America’s billionaire bully showman will calm down when and if he seizes the Presidency’s power and control of American might? Can you picture the bull in the China closet?
Time magazine’s November 4th issue listed Forbes’ most powerful people list with Vladimir Putin on top for three years running.
Because Mr. Putin aggressively uses his power in the world and is filling the vacuum left from America’s missing power he’s the most noticed.
As the Middle East continues to be redesigned with Russia and Iran in the east, Russia and Syria in the north, and now with vulnerable Egypt in the west and may be in need of a big brother will Russia move in?
Will Russia’s Mr. Putin bring its power from the Mediterranean Sea down the Nile, through the Suez Canal? Will Russian air might and its troops show up in the Red Sea’s Sharm El-Sheikh to protect Russian civilians?
Who and what could and will stop Russia from filling the power vacuum anywhere it wants to go?
Just what do American’s think Mr. Trump would do with Executive Bully Power bypassing Congress and reaching for the spotlight as he may contend with Mr. Putin?

Will the mechanics of media’s selective hearing be working for or against the choice of the Electoral College’s majority of votes? After all the popular vote doesn’t count or may or may not count.
When the next president arrives in the White house in 2017 will America have a president with the right luggage of experience and determination to do the most important job in the world?
Will the next President have Congressional experience and still be outside the grip of Washington insider politics as usual?
Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.
Perhaps there is no greater time than now for Christian American’s to rise up and be counted in an effort to choose a man who knows the fear of God. A man who will pray before he acts.
Senator Ted Cruz stands out from the crowd as a man of change who will bring respect and know how to the office of President of the United States.
Only time will tell if God will answer all the prayers, He always hears, prayers of those who love Him and ask Him to slow down, the slide down of American abandonment of God. Only prayer can help.
Psalm 5:2 Give heed to the voice of my cry, My King and my God, For to You I will pray.
