Trump has begun to help democrats with Cruz and Rubio
Rattling and unravel King trump
He was rambling, insulting
Bungling and gone past a breakdown.
GOP is in a frenzy
Trying to prevent DT from destroying the party
And also running as independant, to assure his loss and also GOP
Hike handing on a platter to Hillary and possible Bernie , if he can bridge the 60/30 or 70/30 lead , Hillary commands( media bias against Hillary is disturbing
While they appear to miss trumps mostly low voter %ge ,
They are ignoring Hillarys wide lead in many areas, occasionally emphasizing Bernie closer gap in some areas.
60/70 in Carolina is a huge gap and a wide chasm
That may propel her , if the trend continues
And is massaged nationally
To make Hillary unbeatable, and as the first great Woman, this male biased country, has presented to the voters
In 200/300 yrs??
Why are we so backward
When over 70 yrs ago
Ceylon, Sri lanka( one of the oldest sovereign, democratic nations, elected the first woman prime minister and later President
Followed by India, Britain uk, Germany etc
And the world accepts, a few lag behind? Why?
It is our fault, not the fault of stars or destiny!
We just fail to realize, just keep justifying Gender Bias.
Why not get advice from these countries that elected women and led the modern, but backward world
That resists recognizing
That women are equal and many are more capable than the less educated, less advanced women
Who as mothers, wives, companions, sisters, daughters dominate the lives and thoughts of society( unlike

Beer Barrel Polka
|
Beer Barrel Polka, also known as The
Barrel Polka and Roll Out the Barrel, is a song
which became popular worldwide during World War II. The music was composed by the Czech musician Jaromír Vejvoda in 1927.[1] Eduard Ingriš wrote
the first arrangement of the piece, after Vejvoda came upon the melody and
sought Ingriš's help in refining it. At that time, it was played without lyrics
as Modřanská polka ("Polka of Modřany"). Its first text was written later (in
1934) by Václav
Zeman – with the title Škoda lásky[2] ("Wasted
Love").
The polka became famous around the world. In
June 1939, "Beer Barrel Polka", as recorded by Will Glahé, was #1 on the Hit Parade. This version
was distributed by Shapiro Bernstein. Glahé's earlier 1934 recording
sold many copies in itsGerman version Rosamunde (it is possible the reason for the
rapid spread was due to the occupation of Czechoslovakia by Nazi Germany, and
subsequent emigration of thousands of Czechs to other parts of the world,
bringing this catchy tune with them). The authors of the English lyrics were Lew Brown and Wladimir
Timm. Meanwhile, the song was recorded and played by many others
such as Andrews Sisters in
1939, Glenn Miller Orchestra, Benny Goodman, Bobby Vinton, Billie Holiday, and Joe Patek who sold over a million copies of his
album "Beer Barrel Polka."[3]
During World War II, versions in many other languages
were created and the song was popular among soldiers, regardless of their allegiances. It was
claimed many times that the song was written in the country where it had just
become a hit. Its actual composer was not widely known until after the war.
