Our culture is rife with mediocrity. Look no further than the presumed Democratic nominee for president.

She is not content with her own mediocrity, however. She is self-motivated, for sure — perhaps a singular redeeming quality.

The downside is that she deludes herself and her political base of the glaring reality — once again, her mediocrity.

Even though "mediocre" is a generous descriptor, she is nonetheless highly self-motivated. So much so, that in her rise up the political and social ladder, she once convinced the mayor of San Francisco, to wear her ankles as his earmuffs on occasion. Same goes with a former television talk show host.

While her motivation is not a problem, her intellect and ability are.

She is dumb and inarticulate. In middle school, 12-year-olds are routinely mocked and shamed for uttering sentences that contain vastly more intelligence and for erudition that far surpasses that of the sitting VP.

She regularly cackles like a witch, a behavior that would have likely gotten her burned at the stake in colonial times.

She is uninspiring and evil. Garnering less than 1% of the 2020 primary votes, people hate her for a reason. Yet, Biden supposedly had his hands tied thanks to a vow he made to pick a "black woman" as his running mate.

She's a war hawk and a terrible emissary. Sent on a diplomatic mission to Europe one day and Putin invaded Ukraine the next… literally.

Her rhetoric reveals her hatred of the human race, believing its presence on Earth is the major factor in climate change, so-called. She wants less of its kind taking up space.

Her candidacy represents a fraction of Americans. Better yet, her constituency prefers you were dead.

But, hey, she's self-motivated. Terrific.

As always,

Brian

P.S. -- Within the Inner Sphere, the online community we started earlier this year, we work on self-motivation without the genocidal undertones.

No cauldrons of strange brew are present. We produce no recipes for the various iterations of word salad designed to kill you.

We collaborate with each other to solve problems and make people's lives better, unlike the current VP and her ilk who would simply prefer subjugating you for an eternity.

Two suggestions: don't vote Democrat but do join one of our coaching programs.

Start here:

Our policy is to move forward. We're thus poised to do more substantive things within our culture than one of these politicians could ever dream of.
