Protest: Non-acceptance of the President-elect By T.S. Khanna, November 11, 2016.


Foundation For Better Government,


Protest:  Non-acceptance of the President-elect.
T.S. Khanna, November 11, 2016.

Watching the recent presidential election was like watching a football game without an umpire.   Responsible election commissions with adequate powers are desperately needed to control/regulate/conduct all future elections to regain the public confidence.

Politics is part of human nature.  Professional politics has now become the art of spotting potential for conflict, exploiting it, and applying unsuitable remedies to prolong the conflict.

The good of man, however, starts where politics ends.  Elections in democracy were designed to end politics after the elections were over.  We use liberty to elect officials with powers to curtail our destructive liberties.  Liberty/liberalism is acceptable only if its use is limited to the extent “as you would be done by”.

The present form of liberalism rooted in the protests against the acceptance of Mr. Trump as the President-elect has a tone and tendency to destroy the foundational values and established institutions of this great nation aspiring to become even greater.

Such unconstitutional protests are alarming and must not set a precedent.  Every effort may be intensified to allay the false fears of the protesters
