“If you are a longtime activist in the Liberty Movement then you are well aware that elections do not matter in terms of the future direction our nation takes. Presidents are puppets of international financiers, and so are most legislators. Whenever a president does attempt to go against the system, he either ends up shot by a “lone gunman,” or his office is disgraced by a conveniently-leaked scandal.”

You mean Bill and Hillary were...

No matter how you slice it, it sure looks like a fuster cluck. For the political junkie, it rivals a new Stars Wars movie release to a sci-fi junkie. No matters what happens, politics will never be the same. We have jumped the shark.

“Given the already seething angst between supporters of Trump, Cruz, Sanders and Clinton, any railroading of a candidate at the conventions, whether real or fabricated for effect, could very well result in internal violence spilling into open riots. Some candidates, including Trump, have suggested this will be the ultimate outcome. I tend to agree. The divisions between Americans are so pronounced now that I would be shocked if people did not react emotionally to a brokered or stolen convention. This would also be a fantastic method to continue the distraction of the public away from greater problems.”

This leading to a low intensity civil war will the likely outcome.

...if Hillary Clinton is chosen by the establishment to take Obama’s place, the result would probably be outright civil war in the U.S....

I don't think conservatives actually care enough for this option to be possible.

I am not convinced that the entire Trump vs. Republican Establishment situation is not a contrived Kabuki theater.

The fact that Trump has participated in WWE events gave him experience in this area.

A Three or Four-Way Race

The possibility that this would lead to no candidate getting a majority of electoral votes was not considered.

if Hillary Clinton is chosen by the establishment to take Obama’s place, the result would probably be outright civil war in the U.S. The level of hatred among conservatives for that woman is so stratospheric I cannot see any other outcome.

If Hillary Clinton is chosen by the voters to be the next president, there is not going to be a civil war. Is she really hated more than Obama? Once upon a time Hillary was a Republican. Undoubtedly there will be calls for her impeachment.

“Today, elections represent the illusion of choice; that is all.”

I would agree for the most part about this statement. Those of wealth and power manipulate political systems to their advantage. But a believer would say there are spiritual forces that also work towards their goals. When you throw that in the mix you see moments in time that are major turning points. It would seem though throughout history these turning points are far less frequent then those times we have the illusion of choice.

I on my part still believe there are enough good people in this country for its saving grace,

. Congress does have the authority to pass a law postponing federal elections due to emergencies or “extenuating circumstances”

At this point the Militia comes into play, as far as I’m concerned.

"....and Bernie, well, Bernie is a damn socialist and his only redeeming value is that he is at least honest about it."

Bernie is a Communist!
