BE BRILLIANT! THE ART OF PERFORMANCE. CURIOSITY VS. SUSPICION. WORLD REACTION TO A TRUMP PRESIDENCY: (1) CHINA SAID THE RISE OF DONALD TRUMP, IS THE REASON DEMOCRACY DOESN'T WORK! LOL! MAYBE SOME OF THE REASON, CHINA, CHOSE THE THREE CANDIDATES THEY WANTED TO RULE HONG KONG, WITH PROTESTERS, WANTING A FULLER DEMOCRACY LIKE, ELECTION, RATHER THAN THE PATERNALISM OF CHINA! (2) RUSSIAN PRESIDENT PUTIN, AGREES WITH TRUMPS FEELINGS ABOUT THE CONTROLLING THE PRESS, BUT DOESN'T LIKE THE TOUGH GUY IMAGE, OF PUTIN SLAMMING SOMEONE TO THE GROUND, IN KARATE, LOOKING MUCH LIKE THE BEHAVIOR OF TRUMP'S PERSONAL PAID, SECURITY GUARDS, SLAMMING A NEW YORK TIMES JOURNALIST TO THE GROUND, LOOKING MORE LIKE JACK-BOOTED THUGS, RATHER THAN, CROWD CONTROL . . . PUTIN IS PUT OFF BY TRUMP'S NEW AD AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON, WHOM I WOULD ASSUME, PUTIN HAS SAT ACROSS THE NEGOTIATING TABLES WITH, WHEN HILLARY, WAS SECRETARY OF STATE, LOOKING AT THE BIGGER PICTURE, THAN BEING THE UGLY MALE RUSSIAN! LOL! ALSO UNDERSTANDING THAT HILLARY MAY BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! LOL! SMART MOVE PUTIN; (3) CNN "WONDER LIST" GOING TO CUBA, BEFORE PRESIDENT OBAMA'S FIRST VISIT TO CUBA, WITH THE REPORTER, SEEING TRENDY TOURIST TRAPS AND RESTAURANTS ON ONE SIDE OF THE STREET, AND ON THE OTHER SIDE, PEOPLE RAISING CHICKENS, ON THEIR APARTMENT BALCONIES . . . FLORIDA AND CUBA ARE ABOUT THE SAME SIZE, BUT DON'T THINK CUBA, IS GOING TO GO BACK TO BEING AMERICA'S PLAYGROUND FOR THE RICH, GETTING 2,000 TOURISTS A YEAR, WHILE FLORIDA GETS 100,000, AND WITH CUBANS, NOT SURE ABOUT THIS WHOLE CAPITALIST THING, THAT COULD CHANGE THEIR COUNTRY? IF THEY WANT IT. PEOPLE ARE NOW SNORKELING IN THE BAY OF PIGS, A FAR CRY FROM WHAT WAS GOING ON, BACK IN THE 60'S WITH THE RUSSIAN THREAT, NUKES 90 MILES OFF THE SHORE OF AMERICA! WE CAN MAKE PEACE HAPPEN, WORLD . . . FUN, FUN, FUN, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE . . . WE ARE SERIOUSLY ALL IN THIS TOGETHER, ALL NATIONS RISE AND FALL TOGETHER, SO WHY DON'T WE HAVE FUN, PARTY TOGETHER, TAKE THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST IDEAS, AND INCORPORATE THEM INTO OUR CULTURES, SOCIETY, COMMERCE, EDUCATION, AND TECHNOLOGY! I JUST SAW A TOURIST AD FOR CHINA . . . MY MOTHER WENT TO CHINA, 30 YEARS AGO, AND LOVED IT . . . MY DAUGHTER, HOWEVER, STATIONED IN JAPAN ON AN AIR FORCE BASE, WHILE BEING IN NAVY INTELLIGENCE, GOING TO CHINA'S, TIEANEMEN SQUARE, SAYING THE OPPRESSION WAS SO PALPABLE, SHE PUT ON HER U.S. NAVY SWEATS AND RAN THROUGH THE SQUARE, WITH KIND OF AN "UGLY AMERICAN" IN YOUR FACE TO CHINA, BEING HORRIFIED BY THE ARMED GUARDS, CARRYING AUTOMATIC WEAPONS . . . SHE IS LUCKY, SHE DIDN'T GET ARRESTED, OR WORSE, SOLD INTO WHITE SLAVERY! NOT FUNNY! (4) WE NEED TO RESPECT, THE LAWS, THE GOVERNMENTS, THE DIFFERENT SYSTEMS, AS THE YOUNG STUDENT, WHO JUST GOT SENTENCED TO 15 YEARS IN PRISON, FOR STEALING A HOTEL SIGN, WHICH IN AMERICA, WOULD BE MORE A COLLEGE AGE STUNT, AND THE GUY WOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN A HAND SLAP! NORTH KOREA, DOESN'T TRUST AMERICANS, SO, PRESIDENT OBAMA WARNED STUDENTS AND TOURISTS, TO BE CAREFUL AND STAY AWAY FROM NORTH KOREA RIGHT NOW! WE ALL NEED TO LOOK, GET FAMILIAR WITH, HAVE A RESPECT AND APPRECIATION FOR OUR DIFFERENCES, RATHER THAN, OUR DEMONIZE THOSE DIFFERENCES . . . THE CNN HOST OF THE "WONDER LIST" SAID, AS HE TRAVELS THE WORLD, HE SEES SO MUCH MORE SIMILARITIES IN HUMANS, OUR NEEDS, OUR WANTS, AND OUR PASSIONS . . . WE ARE ALL JUST EVERYDAY PEOPLE, TRYING TO HAVE A GREAT AND REWARDING LIFE! WE NEED A GLOBALIZED EFFORT, TO TRY TO GET ALONG, TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER, AND AT BOTTOM LINE, RESPECT, OTHER COUNTRIES! MAKE PEACE HAPPEN WORLD . . . WE ONLY HAVE ONE PLANET, ONE GOD, ONE HUMAN SPECIES! GOD BLESS THE WORLD, AND ITS LEADERS! IT IS INTERESTING, THAT WHEN THE GORBACHAV'S VISITED AMERICA, DURING THE REAGAN ADMINISTRATION, AND WHILE AT A DINNER, FORMER FIRST LADY, NANCY REAGAN, ASKED THE PERFORMING ORCHESTRA TO PLAY THE RUSSIAN NATIONAL ANTHEM, AND IT WAS SHORTLY AFTER THAT, THAT RUSSIA TOOK DOWN STALIN'S STATUE AND STARTED BUILDING BRIDGES WITH RUSSIA! SUGAR ALWAYS WORKS BETTER THAN VINEGAR! TO THE WORLD WITH LOVE . . .
