Before we begin, allow me to just say I don't mix philosophy and politics togather unlike some phil-itics (like objectivism) so don't hammer away at me in political discussion; afterall, most of the time I just play the devils advocate in philosophical discussion.

Lemme begin. A=A, right? Self explanatory. However, could it be possible that A is not A? Absolutely! Take Shrodigner's cat for example! Or math:
1. 1 divided by infinity=2 divided by infinity (GIVEN)
2. 1 (infinity)=2 (infinity) (mulitplication property of equality)
3. 1=2 (division property of equality)

Therefore A is not A, if 1=2.

Remember: I am just the devil's advocate!
