The 2016 US Presidential Election: Produced for Your Viewing Satisfaction | New Eastern Outlook

The 2016 US Presidential Election: Produced for Your Viewing Satisfaction | New Eastern Outlook





The reality that the candidates may not be substantially different
from each other constitutes one level of concern. Of even greater
magnitude is that the election results may be predetermined. The entire
campaign and electoral process may be a sham, a display to convince us
that the race—and therefore the future– is not fixed. In other words,
the elections may be a charade to sucker us into believing that we have
choice when we do not.


If we are living in a mock- up nation, wherein
the program has been predetermined and we are objects, rather than
subjects of our own future, one could conceivably see where the election
could be contrived to convince us that we live in a representative
democracy when we do not. If in fact we do not, the spin doctors may go
to some lengths to engineer our delusion. The proof of this could be
found in what is commonly termed “election fraud.”
