Look, it took the libtards a hundred years to get where they are now. It’s not going to be easy and it won’t happen over night. But, I’ll be damned if I am going to give up on what makes America the best country on earth. If they can fight for a hundred years to promote their leftest agenda, then we should be willing to fight for two hundred years to promote liberty.

Is that the strongest reason to not try? The claim that people are too liberal, why a Liberty Convention will ‘fail’? Let’s take a look at four issues: gun control, gay marriage, abortion, and Obama-care.

Gun Control ...

Poll: 62 Percent of Americans Want[ed] Senate to Drop Gun Control ...

May 29, 2013 ... President Barack Obama has vowed to keep pushing for new gun control measures and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said the failed gun ... [complete disaster, wasn’t it?]

[reason.com/poll/2013/05/29/poll... sorry, couldn’t load full web address]

1. Gay Marriage v. ‘Same Sex Marriage’

At one time, thirty eight states were opposed to it. Little has changed public opinion on that issue.


2. Abortion

http://www.lifenews.com/2013/01/22/roe-at-40-polling-shows-americans-are-pro-life-on-abortion
“Some 62 percent want abortions illegal in all cases or legal only in certain instances while just 35% want abortions legal for any reason.”

Only “13% would allow abortion for any reason at any time”.


3. Obama-Care — overwhelming opposition. [’nough said on that.]


The real danger with a Liberty Convention is the college education system. What I mean is that it’s not the People who have been indoctrinated so much as politicians, who were virtually all subjected to college indoctrination. Many of our states’ GOP leaders are RINOs who secretly buy into a lot of Ruling Class dogma. THAT is the real danger, not the voter on the street.

Here’s the good news ...

Public Attention will be HIGH. A Liberty Convention will not be ignored. It would gain more scrutiny and evoke more debate than any presidential election in our history. It will be difficult for state level RINOs to team up with leftists. They would ‘out’ themselves and destroy their careers.
