*** This piece of trash was written not by Einstein, but by
a socialist political hack, of the same type than those who
penned Obama's two books.

Einstein was a scientist and scientists just don't write or
orate in the lingo of the socialist ruling class. Obama, on
the other hand, is the epitome of socialism/communism
and has the flowery rhetoric of those carpet baggers.

Einstein fled to Switzerland to escape the encroaching threat
od Hitler's "National Socialism" (NAZI) party and from there
to the US where he stayed for the rest of his life.
You, Starmaker, are a clueless hack.

Sorry, I'm not into politics...

if you wondering what Einstein's politics are:


Einstein was in favour of socialism and in opposition to capitalism, as illustrated by the following quote:
"I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals.

But, if you want to talk about Albert Einstein politics, they both had the same politics, to take over the Vorld!


Albert Einstein called on governments to proceed further by taking gradual steps towards forming an effectual federal world government.



“Mankind’s desire for peace can be realized only by the creation of a world government. --Albert Einstein


Nazi Germany
The ruling Nazi Party of 1933–1945 Germany envisaged the ultimate establishment of a world government under the complete hegemony of the Third Reich.

Einstein had a very strong German accent for all of his life (in the
USA). The quoted text is written in flawless English, what Einstein
could not do.

So I would agree, that this text is most likely not written by him.

There are always questions about authorship of a certain text, since
'the elite' provides also books, which the member elitists could claim
authorship for.

This is similar to other realms in arts and science, where usually the
'big animal' demands all the fame and leaves the annoying work to others.

So painters should paint and singers should sing - without possible
assistance from behind the curtains.

Some did and failed ('Milli Vanilli' for instance).

Therefore such public exams are no longer in use and we have to buy
things as presented.

I'm German and write in a second language. So I know very the
difficulties for Germans t5o write in English (or for English to write
in German).

The English language is full of very specific rules and exceptions and
there are way more English words than German.

German on the other hand is difficult for speakers of English, because
they have e.g. three genders and certain letters, that are hard to
pronounce correctly (like 'ü').

So I would guess, that I could hear the origin of a speaker. But I could
also see the differences in the written language, since certain mistakes
are typical for Germans and for English.

For instance countries are female in English (Germany is 'she') and the
people living there are male singular (the German).
The German language uses different concepts and countries have mainly
the neutral gender and people are addressed in plural.

So speakers of either language make certain errors, because they are
used to the concepts, their own language is based on. And they keep them
long after they speak the new foreign language perfectly.

From such errors I can estimate the origin of the speaker, even if
there is no accent.

But Einstein spoke with a very strong German accent (like e.g. Wernher
von Braun), hence he did not learn the new language English too well.

Since the quoted text about socialism is flawless, I assume that
Einstein could not have written it (himself).

But possibly the text was edited or corrected on the foundation of a
text of Einstein himself. Possibly he wrote in German and that was
translated by a professional translator.

In article <ev97f6...@mid.individual.net>, ttt...@web.de says...
I think that Einstein's command of English was considerably better than
yours. I'm pretty sure that he understood that one would only refer to
_writing_ with an accent if one was attempting to be facetious.

If you mean that people with certain backgrounds make characteristic
grammatical errors, that may be true, but it is not an "accent", and when
one is writing for publication and (a) has time to review one's work, (b)
hand it to someone in the English department at a major university to vet,
and (c) also has it reviewed by the publication's professional editor, such
errors can be easily eliminated.

Now, whether Einstein's views on politics should be given much weight is a
different question--he was an expert on physics, not government. Expertise
in one field does not automatically convey expertise in another.

However I suspect you know all this and are just trolling for an argument.

Captialism is the COUNTERWEIGHT ( to the power of bureaucracy ).

Einstein was a Communist traitor. The reason that his name has been
made synonymous with high intelligence is not because he was actually
that smart, but because the media and the "scholars," who are
increasingly radical on the left, love to propagandize and glorify one
of their own.

To Hell with parasites, to Hell with the left.

Einstein just like socialist chicks...cause they are easy.


Einstein didn't like Captialist chicks because....they charge too much money.

I found this nice video about typical German errors in speaking (or
writing) English:

"5 (more) mistakes made by Germans in English - 5 häufige Fehler im
Englischen"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhkZU-_xikY


Something along this line would allow to estimate the origin of the
speaker and how good someone can speak a foreign language.

It is mainly not the accent in a written text, but typical errors in
grammar, that are characteristic for the origin of the author.

So you are actually correct and 'accent' was the wrong word.

But which wrong word I use is typical for me as a German, who writes
English as a second language.

So these errors are, what we recognize as personal style of the speaker.
And this style we can compare with a kind of 'picture' we have about a
voice.

If these impressions match, we regard the person and the author of a
text as identical, otherwise not.

You need to come from...understanding.


First Einstein wanted to submit an article..

so he had to first write or dictate it..

then it needs to be checked for correct speling...
(that would take a lot from a person's personality)

then it needs to be grammar checked..
(even i would become unrecognizable then)

by the time it gets to publication...


Neverless, the essence is there.


Have you ever seen the letter einstein wrote to fdr before it was completed?

No woman, following any ideology, is "easy".
If she needs money badly, like a junkie, she'll fuck for money.

Communist countries ban " Perversion for Profit " ( Porn ).
That, alone, is reason enough to subvert the system.
Corruption is China's LeastBad option, better than red tape communism.

Why anyone would believe anything the journalistic tampon known as the
New York Times would write is beyond me. Such discredited rags are

There are less problems for German with the English language than for
English speakers with German.

Many people from England have a strong accent for all their life, even
if they live in Germany forever.

English make certain errors, because they base their German on different
linguistic concepts of the English language.

E.g. the phrase 'German' can mean several different things:

German language
person from German
citizen of the Federal Republic of Germany
speaker of the German language
the people of Germany
all German speakers

In German these has all different words.

So if someone mixes 'Speaker of the German language' with 'Citizen of
the FRG', we know with some degree of certainty, this person is from
England, even if the German pronunciation is perfect.

And "Cousin German" means first cousin. Admittedly it's a bit archaic, but you will find it in E. R. Eddison's work, and as I'm posting from the sf group it seems german(e).

Well, yes, even if the word is 'Schrankenwärter'.

But there are tricky differences in the languages and such difficulties
cause linguistic errors.

So I -for instance- make several errors in English, even if I can speak
that language quite well.

But Einstein spoke poor English with a heavy German accent and slow,
even if he was reading his speech from a sheet of paper.

So I we would expect a certain amount of 'Germanic' mistakes, if he
wrote an English text.

Only no such errors can be found in the quoted text. Therefore I assume,
that Einstein had not written it, but someone else.

In " Why Socialism ? ", Einstein noted how PseudoSocialism
leads to " the complete enslavement of the individual ".

Communist slaves have two choices:

 1. Work for the state, with state housing.  Or: 
 2. Work for the state, in a "ReEducation camp" ( jail ).

With luck, this won't change; 
otherwise, we couldn't afford their stuff.

In " Why Socialism ? ", Einstein asks:

  [ Can ] CounterWeights to the power of bureaucracy be assured ?

How often do Bill Maher, Bill Clinton, Obama and CNN discuss 
the  PROBLEMS  of socialism, and the necessary CounterWeights ?

How often do they discuss the  BENEFITS  of global warming ?

Captialism is the CounterWeight ( to the power of bureaucracy ).
Without capitalism, you have no real say, no _real_ vote.
One dollar, One vote; No dollars, No _real_ votes, you slave.
