A New Favorite Christmas Song

With the fiscal and constitutional insanity America is undergoing right now I am constantly seeking ways to relieve stress. Music is one of my absolute favorites, bar none. I'll admit I'm a regular watcher of the Disney Channel, two or three shows, Good Luck Charlie being one of them. Teddy (Bridget Mendler) and Spencer (Shane Harper) are performing a song called "Song for You" on their upcoming Christmas Special. It truly is a beautiful song and Alvin and I just can't get enough of it. I'm sharing it with you today.



Never forget to keep your life balanced and remember what, and who, is most important. Merry Christmas.

Ezra Taft Benson v. Barack Obama


Ezra Taft Benson discusses the communism and socialism dangers facing our society while Barack Obama pushes for and believes in implementing those same dangers in our country.

Doctrine & Covenants 101: 77-80

77 According to the laws and constitution of the people, which I have suffered to be established, and should be maintained for the brights and protection of all flesh, according to just and holy principles;

78 That every man may act in doctrine and principle pertaining to futurity, according to the moral agency which I have given unto him, that every man may be accountable for his own sins in the day of judgment.

79 Therefore, it is not right that any man should be in abondage one to another.

80 And for this purpose have I established the Constitution of this land, by the hands of wise men whom I raised up unto this very purpose, and redeemed the land by the shedding of blood.

What Might Have Been

Had America not been so stupid, this is the article that would have been published at midnight on November 6, 2012. Had 60+ million colossally deceived and deliberately ignorant people not chosen Barack Obama the DOW wouldn't have dropped and 25 and counting companies would not have begun mass layoffs.

The article is simply to good to just delete, instead I'd like to consider that life could have been better for the next four years instead of the economic disaster we are headed for and exceedingly tough times. I'm feeling just snarky enough to want every single person who voted for Barack Obama to be forced to pay down the National Debt. So I took the national debt at 9:15 p.m. MST and divided it by 61,678,367, that's how many idiots voted for Barack Obama. Since you chose socialism, you now own the National Debt in its entirety. So by December 31, 2012 you must pay the federal government $263,405.90. Should work since you're so convinced that Barack Obama did a good job, you must all be rich by now.

In the meantime, this is the article that should have published on November 6, 2012.

MITT ROMNEY WINS AND AMERICA BREATHES A SIGH OF RELIEF

President-Elect Mitt Romney has won with 53% of Americans casting their vote for the Romney/Ryan ticket, and with that, America wins too. Last night, this nation definitively rejected the radical ideologies of the liberal left in America, and embraced the Republic created by the Founding Fathers in 1776. That may seem rather dramatic, but it really was that simple. Big Government, tax hikes and big spending versus states rights, and a smaller, leaner, more efficiently run government.

Mitt Romney asked us to "vote for love of country" and that's just what America did today. He went on to say, "I will not only take office on January 20th of 2013, I will take responsibility." This is the president America deserves.

This has been an election campaign like no other with your regular, every day Americans striking out across the nation to teach others about the wisdom of Mitt Romney's path to prosperity. Even more were on the phones day and night talking to potential voters across the nation. Americans went up against the Obama Machine and walked away with a win in the Romney/Ryan ticket.

State by state chose Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan to lead the United States out of the economic quagmire we find ourselves in, and back on the path to prosperity. Romney has a 5-Point Plan, which was slimmed down from a 59-Point Plan, laid out to get America back on track:

1. Energy Independence
2. Helping Americans Gain the Necessary Skills to Succeed
3. Trade Agreements that work for, rather than hurt, America
4. Cut Deficit spending
5. Champion Small Business

These are the areas Mitt Romney hopes to sit down with Congress, pound out the nitty gritty details, and convince them to see things his way. For now, 53% of America is celebrating like we've been given a reprieve, and we have. Let's not squander this opportunity.

So, what are others saying?
"This election was about saving the very soul of America. Two foes fought. One, Barack Obama, was bound and determined to bring America to her knees. The other, President-Elect Mitt Romney, just as determined to not only save America, but to elevate her to her rightful place in the world. President-Elect Mitt Romney is the personification of what America is all about. Hard working, sacrificing, charitable, compassionate and above all a leader in the world today. The right man for the job has been elected. Way to go America for seeing through the facade of Barack Obama and seeing the true knight in shining armor! " L.S. Keilbart, Children's Author (MT)
"America has voted to implement a positive change with a proven leader. Now it's time to roll up our sleeves and work together in restoring the integrity and honor of this great nation. We have so much to do, but I now have a greater hope in the future. I honestly believe that, like our forefathers, Washington, Jefferson, & Lincoln, God has prepared Mitt Romney to lead us into an era of greater prosperity. God bless America! " Melanie Fox (UT)
"The victory of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan has helped to restore my belief in America and enables me as an immigrant to dream of the possibilities once again. We are now pointed in the right direction that will lead us as a nation back to our founding principles, renewing our confidence in the future. These last four years have been dismal with no appearance of the hope and change we were initially promised in ’08. Americans are now awake and fully engaged as we have taken our country back. Let’s begin working to restore this great nation to its former glory as the shining city upon the hill." Tevita Toutai (CA)
"As somebody who supported Ron Paul until the Republican National Convention, it made more sense that Mitt Romney would be the preferred choice in the general election against Barack Obama. Despite any differences between Congressman Paul and Governor Romney, they are closer aligned when it comes to the issues they do agree on. Romney has expressed his own criticism of the Federal Reserve and makes the case for states' rights, two issues that Ron Paul has focused on throughout his Congressional career. One would hope that Governor Romney sticks to these ideas and promises during his upcoming Administration.

This was an important election, and a decision had to be made by America. We know what that decision was, and we can only hope for the best over the next four years." Patrick Holman-Hart (UT)
"I'm elated for Romney's election, yet I'm proud that patriots across America stopped Obama's attack on success and his power grab against states' rights and constitutional freedoms. Capitalism is economic freedom that has proven to be the strength of our economy. It relies on the hard-working competitiveness of free people. America's best days are before us." Sheriff Paul Babeu (AZ, National Sheriff of the Year)
And across the Pond?
"Things do not happen, they are made to happen. And I have full faith that Mitt Romney will be the best president, not only for the United States of America, that the world has ever seen!" Marja van Overdijk-Smulders (Netherlands)
America has a new President-Elect, we stand on the precipice of financial ruin, and as for me, I'm glad America chose a man with the necessary skills to turn this great lady around, fanning the flames of liberty once again.

May I remind the American people that our job is not done, in fact, it's never done. Now we keep a close eye on Washington, D.C. to make sure things start changing to getting America back on solid footing. Make sure you stay in contact with your elected officials, and that includes Mitt Romney.

Open Letter to Speaker John Boehner

Speaker Boehner,

America was dealt a major blow last night. I, for one, could not believe that there were more Americans wanting a free handout than those willing to work for what they have, but I was wrong. Despite the devastation of last night's election and what I believe to be the huge economic cost to our nation, I 'd like to redirect your attention to Benghazi, Libya. What occurred there is unconscionable and, in my opinion, easily rises to the level of high crimes and misdemeanors. 

I don't have to lay out the case for you, because I'm certain you are aware of everything I am, and more. I am asking you to support the investigations of Congressional committees on this matter and make it a priority to bring Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Leon Panetta and Hillary Clinton up on charges of High Crimes and Misdemeanors for not only condemning 20+ Americans to deaths, only reduced to four because of the efforts of two heroes, but the subsequent coverup which has grown to massive proportions.

I ask you to address this matter in an efficient and timely fashion, and realize that Americans not only want answers, we want justice for the loss of the lives of Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. You may reach me at or ces@candacesalima.com. I await your reply.

Turning the Tide with Candace Salima Formally Endorses Mitt Romney for President


Since I completed my in depth research of Barack Obama in late 2007 I knew that he would be disastrous as president of the United States of America. I began blogging in earnest about the information I was finding, all of it quite alarming to one who loves America as much as I do. Barack Obama won in 2008 and took office on January 20th of 2008. From that moment on the long nightmare America has endured has been rife with disappointment, race wars, class wars, business vs. government, enormous debt, severe violations of the U.S. Constitution, Occupy Wall Street embraced by Obama while the Tea Party was castigated...it has gone on and on. Now, four years later we have:
  • Fallen from #1 to #7 in world competitiveness;
  • Fallen from #3 to #18 in free economies;
  • Suffered 3 credit downgrades, for the first time in American history;
  • Have 53 million Americans on welfare of one sort or another;
  • Have 23 million Americans out of work, and easily triple that who have given up, fallen off the rolls or are underemployed.
  • Have added $6 trillion to the national debt bringing it to a staggering $16 trillion and counting;
  • Have deficit spent to the tune of $1.2 to $1.4 trillion each year of Obama's presidency;
  • Obamacare has raised healthcare costs and is adding 21 new taxes on the American people beginning January 1, 2013;
  • Had the first U.S. Ambassador in 30 years assassinated in an attack on our Libyan consulate along with Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, to date a still unanswered attack;
  • Had 20 U.S. embassies and/or consulates attacked because Obama showed weakness; and,
  • Barack Obama has the worst, weakest foreign policy America has endured since Jimmy Carter.
I could go on, but I really believe that lays out a strong enough case that no thinking American would ever support, let alone vote for Barack Obama.

As such Turning the Tide with Candace Salima formally endorses Mitt Romney for President of the United States of America. 

He is a strong candidate with a unique set of skills specifically needed at this time in American history. We stand at a crossroads; we will either choose Barack Obama and complete the slide into socialist European democracy, or we will choose Mitt Romney and return to the values and principles which made America great.

With Romney's skills in business, Olympics and as the governor of Massachusetts, he has a consistent history of taking what is broken, stripping it down and building it back up in a lean, mean fashion that gets it humming and making money. America needs a man of Romney's honor, integrity and skill to lead America out of this unholy mess we find ourselves in.

Romney has proven his ability to reach across the aisle to accomplish the necessary need to mend a broken Congress, I hope, and to unite our nation on the path to prosperity again. Romney is very business friendly, understands the strengths of free enterprise, and is passionate about my key issues; Energy Independence and Championing Small Business.

There is no question in my mind that the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan team is the one that is going to pull America back from the financial cliff we find ourselves precariously perched on the edge of; a vote for Mitt Romney is a vote for America, and I ask that you vote for America on November 6th, 2012.
