From: Just a simple man
I’ve been following your campaign since your announcement, reading millions
of words written about you, watching thousands of hours of video and
speeches, listening to many talk radio show segments, and engaging in dozens
of debates with people around me.
No candidate has ever captured my attention the way you have.
Now that it’s clear you will be the Republican nominee, I want to share
with you something so personal, painful, and uplifting, that I almost don’t
want to write it, but I will anyway…trolls be damned:
My whole life, up until yesterday, has been based on reaction to fear.
Growing up as a black man in Washington D.C. during the “crack 80’s”,
when Marion Barry was mayor, I lived a lower middle class childhood in one
of the most dangerous cities in America. Though I had many friends, I was
also subject to the threats, intimidation, and bullying that happens when
you’re not like the people around you.
There was no father in my life to steel me against the world I lived in. My
mother was strong, but it’s not exactly the kind of strength I needed. I
was a boy, and needed a Man.
Without strong male guidance, I learned to fear…but not how to face fear
and win. Even joining the military and going to war didn’t overcome my
weakness, and all my future decisions considered strongly the level of fear
I had at the time.
As a result, my life has been full of conflict, as I have unintentionally
signaled to adversaries that I am an easier opponent to beat than others. I
have won victories, but never truly enjoyed them knowing the battle is never
won for me…only endured. I have also suffered crushing defeats, and
important people in my life lost confidence in me as a result. I have not
reached my potential, and settled instead into apathy and stasis, content to
only being “smart enough” or “good enough”…not great. Not strong. Not
resolute…
Not a leader. Not a winner.
My life, in many important ways, mirrors the American experience. Potential
to be great, but paralyzed by fear. Full of conflict. Enduring, not winning.
No leadership. No strong Male inspiration. And occasional, crushing defeats
that hit to the core of our country…most notably 9/11, but also with the
erosion of our middle class and uniquely American culture.
Like you say so often: we don’t WIN anymore.
Watching your campaign, and being as invested in it as I am, has been an
exercise in recognizing, and confronting, fear that I never expected. Every
time your opponents hit you…I feel fear for your candidacy and our country.
Every charge of racist, sexist, facist, etc. causes me to worry that no one
, not even you, can really change the country for the better. That we’re
doomed to failure…
Then…inevitably…you win the battle. You don’t “survive”, or “endure”
…you attack, and put fear into your opponents. You don’t stop until they
are buried under your feet. Until they become paralyzed…
Sometimes, you even bait them into hitting you, just so you can beat the
crap out of them again. Your life is full of conflict, but it becomes yet
another opportunity to WIN, and makes you MORE powerful…not less.
Then, once they are eliminated as a threat, you are generous to the
vanquished. It’s not personal, and they are not evil. They were, simply…in
the way. Once they are not, they become worthy of kindness and respect.
Furthermore, you’re not just a blunt instrument…your strategy is
impeccable. You go into every conflict knowing exactly what your opponents
weaknesses are, how to exploit them, and what levers to pull to ensure
victory. Clearly, you spend good time before announcing your candidacy doing
the things the military taught me as a young soldier: surveying, recon,
intelligence-gathering, ammunition, discipline, execution…
You are defending America from our enemies within, and it’s an AMAZING
thing to watch.
Last night, you also did something else. You became the Man that helped me
see fear for what it is: an illusion of power, a powerful teacher, and the
path to winning if used properly. There is no reason, regardless of the
enormity of the task, to lose to fear if you prepare well, are disciplined
in your execution, and have the faith necessary, in God, yourself, and in
others…that leads to victory.
Winning is always possible, but becomes probable if you never back down,
never quit, and become your dominant self. Once the battle is won, treat the
vanquished with kindness and respect. Be the bigger man.
You taught me how to Win.
I appreciate what you’ve done for me personally, and what you’re doing for
our country. I know I’m not the only man who admires you, and can’t wait
for you to become the father, and leader, of our country. It’s been a long,
cold winter for men in America the last 8 years, and I believe that your
election will dramatically improve the level of respect, admiration, and
love people will show for strong men and Fathers, and will create a new
generation of leaders from impressionable young boys.
That, more than anything, will Make America Great Again.
