The Rock is Kicking Ass and Saving Franchises - Forbes

Dorothy Pomerantz

Johnson debuts on our Celebrity 100 this year.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s formula for box office success is twofold: “I can kick ass better than anyone on the planet,” he says. “And I have a decent smile.”

He flashes his teeth winningly to try to underscore his point. But the numbers are more impressive: This 6-foot-5 wrestler’s 15 movies have grossed more than $2.3 billion at the global box office. Then there’s how he’s done it. Rather than launch franchises, Johnson saves them. Last year he climbed onboard the tired Fast and Furious series and turned Fast Five into the franchise’s highest-grossing film ($626 million). Then he took over Journey to the Center of the Earth from Brendan Fraser, and Journey 2 brought in $81 million more than its predecessor. Next up: the second installment of G.I. Joe.

Producers have taken note: We estimate The Rock earned $36 million in the last 12 months, and his first spot on The FORBES Celebrity 100 seems to be a floor, not a ceiling.

The main reason I did not fully support Ron Paul is because he did not speak about the real election process. He directed people to waste their time and effort on delegates and the Republican party.

 

Parties never have and never will matter. PLEASE PLEASE my brothers and sisters DO NOT be fooled anymore.  Knowledge is REAL POWER, and can not be taken away from you.

 

The Constitution of the united States

Article. II.

Section. 1.

The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.

The Electors shall meet in their respective States, and vote by Ballot for two Persons, of whom one at least shall not be an Inhabitant of the same State with themselves. And they shall make a List of all the Persons voted for, and of the Number of Votes for each; which List they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the Seat of the Government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate. The President of the Senate shall, in the Presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the Certificates, and the Votes shall then be counted. The Person having the greatest Number of Votes shall be the President, if such Number be a Majority of the whole Number of Electors appointed; and if there be more than one who have such Majority, and have an equal Number of Votes, then the House of Representatives shall immediately chuse by Ballot one of them for President; and if no Person have a Majority, then from the five highest on the List the said House shall in like Manner chuse the President. But in chusing the President, the Votes shall be taken by States, the Representation from each State having one Vote; A quorum for this purpose shall consist of a Member or Members from two thirds of the States, and a Majority of all the States shall be necessary to a Choice. In every Case, after the Choice of the President, the Person having the greatest Number of Votes of the Electors shall be the Vice President. But if there should remain two or more who have equal Votes, the Senate shall chuse from them by Ballot the Vice President.

The Congress may determine the Time of chusing the Electors, and the Day on which they shall give their Votes; which Day shall be the same throughout the United States.

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

 

 

Amendment 12 , which did minor changed to above

 

The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate;

The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted;

The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.

The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice-President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice. But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.

My Take on Rand Paul’s Endorsement of Mitt Romney | Planet Infowars

First off, Rand Paul was never a “member” of his father Ron’s “Liberty Movement.” He supported his dad, sure, and shares many of the ideals that his father has. However, he’s never been more than a “friend” of the movement. The movement is his dad’s baby and his dad is the one leading it. I also don’t think that Rand’s endorsement of Romney is a betrayal of his principles. It just shows that he’s gentlemanly and that he’s more of an establishment Republican than Ron is. I realized that about Rand last July when the U.S. Senate voted unanimously to retain Robert Mueller as the Director of the FBI. For the vote to be unanimous, everyone, including Rand, had to vote “yes.” I also don’t blame Rand for endorsing Romney in part to protect his own political career. As a senator, he has a lot of power that can be used to help restore liberty and Constitutionality. I don’t see Rand as a traitor, just a man taking the lemon of his father not becoming the Republican Presidential nominee and making lemonade with his endorsement of Romney.

Native American Peace Pipe

 

  • Today I Awoke
  • To the sound of peace
  • Sweetly singing o’er the land 
  •  
  • I walked beside
  • My brothers near and far
  • And there were no children hungry
  • Today I knew
  • No one was cold
  • And there was freedom
  • Forever sounding
  •  
  • Our prayers are heard for everyone
  • And ours is now
  • A world without war
  • A world at peace
  • With children playing
  • Where gardens grow
  • And the air is sweet and clean
  • No more shall we
  • Be ever fearing
  • For ours is now
  • A world without war
  • A world without war
  • A world joined as one
  • Rejoicing in differences
  • Under the sun
  • A world where we can
  • Be sure ever more
  • That we shall have
  • A world without war
  • I thank the god
  • That shines on all men
  • Who never sees
  • But love in all
  • I take each breath
  • Forever grateful
  • That now we have
  • A world without war
  • Forever more, a world without war
