Just for Fun - An Inauguration Day Fantasy:
Tribute to the Unknown President
by Joseph Robert Jochmans
1 - 19 - 2009 As the military band struck up Hail to the Chief
and the great throng of onlookers exploded in cheers, the outgoing
President and First Lady slowly made their way onto the inaugural
platform to take their places of honor. Though the day was unusually
warm for January, a stiff breeze lowered the temperature to a cold
chill, and the First Lady looked with concern over to the aged
figure of the President seated next to her. But he seemed fine, a
contrived smile on his lips, his glassy eyes staring off into empty
space. He certainly was not cold, she knew - he had no feeling for
that. All she was worried about was that his programming circuits
might freeze up on this one last and vital event before he left
office.
The ceremony began, the swearing in of the new Vice President and
new President was underway, but the First Lady’s mind
wandered far away in time and space. She shuddered, not from the
cold but from the memory of that awful day in March years before
when her beloved husband had been struck down by an assassin’s
bullets. She had hurried to be at his side in the hospital, only to
find him already gone. He died on the operating table before they
could even say goodbye to each other.
Yet in those first few hours after his demise, on her orders she had
purposely suppressed the news from leaking out. Instead, something
unexpected was hatched between herself and those who walk the secret
corridors of national security, within the shadowy depths of
government.
She was in shock, to be sure, but she was also angry - angry that
her husband had been robbed of his chance to make his mark in
history. The security advisors who huddled around her sympathized,
realizing too that the nation - just coming out of a decade of hurt
and pain from Vietnam, Watergate, hyperinflation, joblessness, the
Iran hostage frustration and general malaise - had placed all their
hopes on this new President. American society, they decided, might
not recover from the trauma of his slaying.
And so a bold and daring alternative was proposed. The technology of
computer robotics by that time had been vastly developed by military
researchers, to a far greater degree of sophistication than the
general public even suspected. Would a substitute President fool
everyone and be accepted?
The First Lady, quickly sensing her new position of power, agreed
that they must go ahead with the clandestine switch. The risks to be
taken of course would be terrific. Yet the covert parties involved
convinced themselves - perhaps more because of their own shifts into
newfound secretive authority - that it was the only thing to do.
Their success, especially during the first term in office, had
been beyond what they ever could have dreamed. Though at times the
President seemed slow in thinking and speech, or appeared to drop
off in sleep during cabinet meetings while programming disks were
being changed, everything went smoothly. At appropriate times he was
admitted into Walter Reed Hospital for routine physical check-ups or
for minor surgery - always on schedule for a mechanical overhaul or
good cleaning, or to replace parts with new updated bionic
equipment, or do cosmetic work to age the President, adding wrinkles
in all the right spots for the cameras.
The President fulfilled his functions, said his speeches, performed
his monotonous wave as he walked to and from the White House
helicopter, and delivered his policies already decided upon by the
First Lady and her advisors. She thought how ironic it was that
media reporters had at first criticized the President as continuing
a great acting job from his movie days, then eventually praised him
on his computer-like conciseness as the great communicator.
If they only knew the truth, she smiled, of how intuitively
observant they had really been.
It was during the second term in office that some serious slips
began to creep in, and the First Lady had to work hard to cover them
well. She had not realized that machines, just like people, can wear
out. The computerized speech patterns from the President became more
and more retarded and slurred at awkward moments.
Once, the news cameras had caught her prompting the President in
giving an answer to a press conference when his software had briefly
come out of mode. Again, during a critical summit meeting with the
Soviet Premier, a key memory chip had failed and the President could
only speak in a garbled fashion for a full minute. The Russians
began to have their suspicions. Yet all was smoothed over when he
rebounded and delivered a well written - and well computer rehearsed
- speech the following day.
For a time during this same period there had been a lot of talk in
the American press about the President’s age and his showing
signs of senility. The robotic technicians had finally come to the
rescue with a major restructuring. Thereafter, the President soon
appeared to be invigorated with what news commentators called a new
youthfulness as he continued to carry out the affairs of state.
Now it was coming to an end. The Inauguration speech of the newly
sworn-in President was closing, and the First Lady began to realize
how truly exhausted she was. It had been a very hard eight years.
Unknown to everyone except a handful of people close to her, she had
been the real President while also carrying out the functions of the
First Lady, plus living with the constant fear and anxiety of her
secret being discovered.
Her policies, voiced through the machine vocal cords of the
President, had been as wise and logical as she could have made them.
There were mistakes, she silently admitted. But the programmed
congenial nature of the President’s aging image, perfectly
suited to psychologically take no responsibility for any of its
actions, had covered up the worst errors with brilliance and had
even generated public acceptance and popularity.
There had been some decisions - like traveling in person to the
Soviet Union, and the signing of the Nuclear Arms Treaty - that were
really out of character for what her husband would have done were he
still alive. She had insisted on these, even against the counsel of
her co-conspiring advisors. With sadness, looking again at the cold,
unfeeling replica sitting next to her, she realized that if her
husband had survived, his stubborn rashness very likely would have
gotten them all into a nuclear war.
Hopefully now, in the world she had helped to guide in a new
direction, a very different future of hope and promise might have a
chance to manifest. The one missing point, the First Lady lamented,
was that no one in the world would ever know who the real instigator
of peace had been. Then, after a moment of reflection, she nodded to
herself - it was still worth the price of silence she had personally
paid.
The final applause and cheers rose to the sky as the newly
instated President ended his speech. They stood up, the now
ex-President and herself, applauding with vigor. Later, as they
left, shared their last goodbyes and entered the helicopter waiting
to take them to the airport for their flight into retirement, she
turned back and took a long curious look at the new President and
new First Lady.
Had he already been replaced too? she wondered. Was his wife now
in charge of the programming? Perhaps, the ex-First Lady smiled
wryly, this was the only way in American politics that women would
ever be allowed to run the highest office of the land.
As the former President and former First Lady boarded their jet
home, the aged figure obediently sat in its seat, buckled in and
fell into its usual programmed smile and silent stare. The long hard
road was now finally over, she sighed. They could go home and she
could get some deserved rest.
From here on in the ex-President would make his appearances in a
far more controlled environment, rather than in front of the whole
nation and the world as they had done in the White House. There
would be a few guest visits, honors, ceremonies, even a book or two
might be released, ghost-written by her behind the scenes.
Gradually, the growing stiffening of his aging machine body and
the slow dissolving of his memory files would be explained as the
onset of Alzheimer’s, and he could then be completely
isolated from the public eye for good. At some point the
ex-President would finally be reported to have died in his sleep,
his model would be quietly destroyed, and the body of her beloved
husband - waiting all these years in cold storage in a secret vault
- would receive the full honors of a Presidential burial. History,
she was satisfied, would be fulfilled despite the fact that she had
secretly manipulated it.
As the jet wheels left the runway, she looked one more time at
the mechanical frame of the ex-President resting in silent mode next
to her. He had done his job well, despite all the mishaps. And with
a loving touch she reached beneath the collar at the back of his
neck and gently switched him off, his eyelids and head once again
drooping into a peaceful slumber.

About the Author
For the past forty-seven years, Joseph Robert Jochmans has been
an avid researcher into the mysteries of both the past and future,
in pursuit of the forgotten wisdom of lost civilizations and the
revelations of age-old prophecies from all corners of the globe.
In 1975, Joseph was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Literature
from Northgate Graduate School in Seattle, Washington, a Center for
Specialized Biblical Research. He has had two books published,
lectured extensively both nationally and internationally, and has
appeared in documentaries for the Arts and Entertainment Channel
"Biography" series and on the History Channel.
Between 1981 and 1997 Joseph made fifty journeys world-wide—from
Egypt to Easter Island, from Israel to Inner Mongolia, and from
Tibet to Lake Titicaca—as part of his ongoing intensive studies.
During this period, he spent many hours lecturing to tour groups
and carrying out his personal investigations among such ancient
sites as the Great Pyramid and Sphinx in Egypt, Stonehenge and
Avebury in England, Serpent Mound and Big Medicine Wheel in America,
Teotihuacan and Palenque in Mexico, Temple Mount and Megiddo in
Israel, Machu Picchu and Ollantaytambo in Peru, the Shensi Pyramids
and Temple of Heaven in China, as well Orongo on Easter Island,
Cahokia Mounds in Illinois, Riurimu in New Zealand, Khutab Minar in
India, Glastonbury in England, Tiawanaku in Bolivia, the Lhasa
Potala in Tibet, the Temple of Saqqara in Egypt, plus countless
other sacred energy points of the planet.
In addition, Joseph completed research in the Cairo Museum, the
Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, the Anthropological Museum in
Mexico City, the Smithsonian, the British Museum, the University of
Beijing and the Vatican Library.
What Joseph has gleaned and harmonized together from these
various travels and sources is a single universal view of where
humanity has been over the past eighteen million years, and what
destinies we have the potentiality to yet fulfill in the coming ten
thousand years ahead.
He has now successfully crystallized his experiences and learning—culminating
over the last five decades—into a special series of works called
the Time-Capsule Reports, now available through Forgotten Ages
Research.
Joseph has found that because there is so much new information
constantly coming in, new discoveries being made and whole new
concepts developing in all areas of his studies, the Time-Capsule
Reports offer the ideal format which allows him to continually
expand and keep adding changes. In this way he can keep his
published researches on the wide range of subjects he covers
updated, refreshed and relevant.
This format also gives the reader a better opportunity to pick
and choose which topics are of specific interest to you, and order
them when you want. Click on to the Time-Capsule Reports Library and
find the very latest listing of a wide range of written materials
now ready.
Joseph presently resides in Lincoln, Nebraska where he continues
to study, write and publish his findings. He is also available for
doing lectures and facilitating tours to the world's sacred sites,
as well as training students in performing earth energy work and
planetary etheric structural engineering.
Personal Philosophy—Accepting New Truths
In Greek legend, the god Hermes is not only the deity of
inspiration, the Divine Messenger, but sometimes he also acts as the
Game Player, giving us important lessons to learn.
What truths Hermes offers us are like a deck of cards. Each card
is filled with esoteric symbols, and as we work with these we begin
connecting certain symbols with others, placing one card with
another, eventually building a wonderful edifice—a house of cards
which defines truth in a framework we can understand.
But just at the moment of self satisfaction, when we think we
have neatly categorized everything, Hermes comes flying through and
drops a whole new set of cards on top of our carefully constructed
reality. Our house of cards tumbles down and we are left sitting
amid the ruins with Hermes' laughter ringing in our ears.
However, looking around us, we discover the new cards left by
Hermes, with their new symbols. We begin seeing interconnections
with the symbols on the old cards—and soon we are once again
building a structure, another house of cards, only this one bigger
and more complex than before.
The moral of the story is, it is good to create a framework with
the truths that are given us, for it helps us to better understand
the reality we live in at the moment. But we must always make sure
our framework is flexible, remembering that it may need to be
completely altered as we learn more truths.
In the end, as Hermes keeps reminding us, no one is ever playing
with a full deck of cards.
