    My journey with Free Republic began in late 1998. It was near the end of the Clinton Presidency, and there seemed to be a new wave of hope and a sense of renewed patriotism as we gathered to defeat Al Gore and elect George W. Bush. But, on the whole, we lacked a platform, a vehicle, whereby we could gather together and speak with a common voice. Jim Robinson provided that platform, utterly unique at the time, a place for conservative voices to sing out, to proclaim their views, to unite, and to encourage one another that we were not...

I'm curious to learn those who have changed from Trump to another candidate, and why. I hope I have posted this correctly. If not, I apologize beforehand.

    My nine year-old grandson is spending the evening with some friends. It seems that the boys he's with got into a political conversation and my grandson said, "I'm voting for Romney because Obama used too much money and had to borrow it from China, so now we owe China." I'm amazed that he understands so much and would rather talk politics than X-box (his true passion!). In the course of the conversation, one of the other boys shared that his mom voted for Obama in 2008 but doesn't know what she was thinking and will NOT vote for him this...

    Election Ballots Seized in Nevada CountyBy TOM GARDNER, Associated Press Writer RENO, Nev. - The FBI (news - web sites) has seized ballots cast in the primary and general elections in one county after allegations of improprieties were raised.
