You seem to be under the illusion that voting for a president will change something. Until the behemoth fedgov bureaucracy is dismantled and the power taken back by us via Congress, nothing will change. Congress gave away our power and continues to do so. Voting for a figure-head is irrelevant.
Sometimes it seems like folks on FR think most voters are just like them and I beg to differ.
If conservatives were anywhere near the majority of the political right, then I seriously doubt we would continue to have the likes of Boehner, McConnell, McCain, Graham, etc *inflicted* upon us term after term after term...
Conservatives are, for now, a rather small minority within the political right. I *hope* conservatism is catching fire, but it certainly does not appear to be doing so in this election season. We still have much work to do to grow conservatism. Hence: Instead of the govt we need, we will continue to be stuck with the govt we deserve for awhile longer - perhaps generations.
I’m in favor of a poll test. Something that delineates between people that understand the Constitution and basic civics and those that do not.
Problem solved.
But there is no overwhelming evidence that the poster is the author.

Thank you! Management training has taught me that grousing about BS in your department gets nothing done. Offer up the solutions, and you'll be the kingmaker.
Or that he is even human...
That is because there is no human solution. We’re way past that. It just has to play out.

Okay Matty. Who do you want me to vote for?
hmmm,
what I got form the article was a reminder that we all are daily involved in this God inspired USofA and DAILY have choiceS in it’s future or end.
we all daily have room for improvement in self, involvement in community/country or we would not be drawing breath, if i understand Christianity and USA founding and values.
Boy, have you nailed it. And, when God is ready, the FBI, BATFE, Postal Service Police Force, IRS law enforcement folks and all military branches of all kinds are going to be in for a big surprise. They'll laugh at this comment, I know. But, it's okay.

God, this is so right. Most of you spend your time attacking people who have the same hopes for this country’s future . You want illegals stopped at the border, good paying jobs with American companies, lower taxes, less government, but instead of picking on the big government candidates you sit and attack those who may have the same goals but a slightly different way to get there. There’s hate, vitriol and rudeness. FreeRepublic has turned into a Free for all for insults and attacks.
This forum has been ruined and I wish some of you had that much enthusiasm to taking out Hillary or Sanders.
They’re hoping the moniker ‘tyrant’ will stick. Too bad they don’t really understand what they are stating.
In the 19th century they had a term for the guy who wrote this crap—scribbler. Scribblers were not given the right to vote until much later. In the 19th century only land owners or property holders had the vote. Boy did we screw up.
I agree public education is a big part of it. I spent 16 years in the government indoctrination camps. And I resent being forced to pay for them upon pain of losing my home, it is as bad as the Muslim dhimmi tax and very comparable. But how many people are homeschooling their children (as I am) in response? The public is still at fault for sending their kids to the camps.
