Before Donald Trump debates Hillary Clinton, he needs to do all the research on her past performance in all her public service. I lived in upstate New York while she was a senator. She promised financial support when floods devastated many small towns and left people homeless and some dead. She was all talk, not a dime of FEMA money went to the area. She is a liar! Donald Trump needs to avoid being sucked into the gutter by baited questions, and respond to interviews with poise and professionalism. Like all other politicians he has the privilege of avoidance rather than embarrassment. Suggestions: Donald Trump needs to settle or resolve as many of his outstanding litigation issues as soon as possible. It is only going to give Democrats fodder to try to character assassinate him. Look what happened to Herman Cain. There’s a lot to be learned by what happened to him.

More Americans Murdered
written – June 17 2016
The FBI, CIA and IRS are under the direction of the U.S. President. In all three attacks, Orlando, Boston and San Bernardino, the FBI had knowledge of the killers. They could have enforced the law and held all of them for suspicion of Treason. All three attacks would have been prevented. Obama is directly responsible for all the deaths. I believe the FBI has orders from the president not to enforce the laws regarding treason. Obama’s direct threats made when he spoke at the Orlando memorial for the victims, promising more attacks unless his gun control agenda is agreed to, only reinforces this theory. This is also why Hillary Clinton will never face any charges for her acts of treason. If Obama and those who agree with his socialist policies are not stopped, our constitutional rights will be stripped away one at a time until we are under a dictatorship like other socialist countries. The military and other federal agencies are there for the people’s defense and protection not pawns for the President’s personal agenda. This is why a TRUMP presidency is such a threat to the corrupt, secretive and dishonest Obama administration. Additionally the burdensome medical insurance tax should not be given such a glamorous name as Obama Care. It is just one of the many steps taken by this administration towards a dictatorship socialist government. I am hopeful that a DONALD TRUMP presidency can reverse the tragic loss of constitutional rights and socialism that the country is inevitably headed for.
Bob White Quail program in Tennessee
I understand there is a cooperative study being done in the Bridgestone wildlife management area in White County Tennessee. It consists of the annual burning in the WMA. What the objective of the study is, however, is unclear to me. The signs posted in the WMA state that areas will be burned in the fall in cooperation with the University of Tennessee.
I do know that over the past several years the WMA has burned large areas every spring, and not in the fall. I am a conservationist as well as an outdoorsman and a hunter.
I have seen a drastic decline in animals and birds in my own back yard in recent years. I decided to look into the matter further and indeed, when checking the TWRA’s website with regard to animals (big game) Turkey and deer particularly there has been a severe decline in game checking statistics, an approximate 60% decline in turkey.
In my opinion, this is almost equivalent to a genocide or extreme cull of these species. I’m sure that this affects not only turkey but all other ground forging and nesting birds including quail, Pheasant, grouse and woodcock.
I have tried to impress my views on this matter by contacting the TWRA. They responded with irrelevant comparison to native plains Indians burning lands and boasted of belonging to a national burn council. As an outdoorsman, hunter for over 40 years, their analysis of ground cover being bad for these birds is completely false.
They also told me that the lands are only burned in a controlled rotational manner, ever few years. This is also incorrect. The lands are burned every spring when these birds are propagating (nesting-mating.) I have witnessed repetitive and consistent destruction of these areas year after year since 2009.
I was told quail were introduced or stocked on the WMA, but most of the birds are being forced into adjacent private land. I have no objection to the birds’ presence, but have to question the management practice of the WMA. Surely with over 10, 000 acres of land there could be adequate habitat if properly managed.
I have noticed the forage plot planted for the wildlife but it is planted within 50 feet of a public road where vehicles travel at 45-50 MPH.
The forage is approximately 10 feet wide by over one mile and alongside the roadway. I have had a personal experience of quail birds exiting the WMA and hitting my windshield. I slowed my vehicle enough however that I don’t think the birds were harmed.
Either these burn practices are not being properly conducted, are not effective at all, or must certainly are having a negative effect on the wildlife populations. I will continue contacting as many state and federal and private wildlife conservation organizations until this is address.
Advice for Donald Trump
Donald Trump is facing the biggest and most complicated set of blueprints there is; study them, learn from them, get the construction project done right don’t try to intimidate the building inspector, cooperate with him or her and you will get approval to finish up and the American people can get paid back for the job!
Donald Trump needs to either stop tweeting altogether or carefully review the tweets. Although Americans do appreciate honesty and some impulsiveness, now is not the time. Senator Obama got away with it because of the racial bias of the media. Donald Trump has to get real serious, now. Impulsive statements no matter how harmless or obviously humorous, the media will distort, edit, photo shop, misrepresent, misinterpret everything that is said, done, written, or seen by or of Donald Trump. Actions, words, appearances, maybe even what he had for dinner, will be under scrutiny. Nothing is off limits from the demigod Democrats.
Donald Trump needs to make as many friends as possible right now. This means a formal apology to John McCain and possibly even the Muslim parents of the slain soldier that appeared at the DNC. An apology would not belittle him, it would show better strength of character, and would go a long way to bringing him closer to occupying the white house. Now that Donald Trump has the formal nomination at hand, the timing is perfect for this sort of thing. While the democrats pledge unity, Donald Trump could demonstrate unity by example. It probably wouldn’t hurt to apologize to Cruz, Bush and Fiorina as well. Showing a softer, more human side would surely help in party unification as well as bring new votes to the nominee. The rigged system is going to work against Trump at every opportunity. Stay away from racially baited questioning. Instead of knee-jerk responses, simply say, “no comment” and move on in these interviews. I don’t know if it’s the campaign manager or Donald himself, but, he absolutely has to avoid the race baiting. He can’t continue to fly off the handle, especially in these types of situations. Donald needs to have the kind of management team who don’t display that arrogant typical New Yorker. If the tone doesn’t change, he may as well concede now! He knows the system and media are rigged against him. He has to be smarter than this and FAST!
