50 nations met in San Francisco, California, between April and 26 June 1945. 46 countries, including 4 sponsors. The War Memorial building was where it all happened - few in San Francisco -know this history - and there is more.
San Francisco and the surrounding area are unique - few understand the land we call the Bay Area. Those who live work hard - many working three and four jobs to make a living - pay rent and put food on the table.
I started this article by mentioning the United Nations, which now makes its headquarters in New York - it was even at that time about money - the Rockefellers had the cash and sponsored most of what was needed.
I started the title of this article by mentioning that China is flexing its muscles- using Taiwan as a ploy - honestly speaking, wants to be at the table - to announce to the world - that it is a force to be reckoned with.
Time - will tell - its success recently - with its sonic rocket - that is difficult to detect - and can take out satellites in space - hit and stall the space platforms - other related issues - make China a force to be reckoned with.
China's leader Xi Jinping - has done a sound needs assessment - anyone with weapons that no one else can compete with - wins. The - sonic rocket is just the beginning of this cat and mouse play. As I often say - time will tell.
We can look at America any which way we want. Common sense, which is a rare sense - tells one - we need sound leadership. For a moment, like what is transpiring - I think of President Eisenhower.
I also feel strongly we need a Commander-in-Chief of our nation - who has sound military experience. Our Founding Fathers could not have envisioned a diabolical liar as a President who has sold our country to the Russians.
As the United Nations goes - the United States did its best to keep mainland China out of the United Nations. No doubt China was a founder member - but Taiwan too was granted membership.
Time and time again, Taiwan was favored by the Untied States - mainland China playing second fiddle.
Finally, mainland China was admitted into the United Nations in 1971 and respected - on 76 in favor - 35 opposed and 17 abstentions.
Since then, China has exercised its rights at the United Nations - gradually contributing the most money - having the most significant number of United Nations Security soldiers - all over the world and so on.
Added China has played a significant role in the World Health Organization.
When we have leaders who act like buffoons - pulling out of the World Health Organization, not paying our dues linked to international organizations, treat world leaders with disdain - such actions are on the fanatics who voted diabolical maniacs in - like Donald Trump.
The harm this one person has created is set us back a decade.
Americans must read the agreement - seeing is believing:

We are a Republic - both the Democrats and the Republicans know the majority of the United States of America - citizens - are hurting.
We also know that the majority call themselves Independents - who are a force to be reckoned with. Time will tell.
