The campaigns leading up to Election 2000 showed the country to be deeply divided, but it was not really a pure 50-50 percentage allotment.

If people who want a limited government had made up a bigger portion of voters in that election, someone other than George W. Bush would have won the GOP Primary Election. We, The (Republican) People had our choice of Gary Bauer, Steve Forbes, Alan Keyes, Orrin Hatch, John McCain and George W. Bush. There weren't enough people to vote for, say, Alan Keyes, even though it was a sort of do-or-die election in the sense that to allow Gore to be elected would essentially be a continuation of the Clinton presidency.

If "principled" voters are so numerous, why didn't Alan Keyes win the primary and subsequently the presidency? The answer is in President Bush's own words, "I was not elected to serve one party, but to serve one nation."

If you are maddened by the Democrats moving so far to the left, you will likely go totally insane when your "principled" vote contributes to the defeat of Dubya, especially since the makeup of the Judicial branch of government depends upon its outcome.

President Kerry, the liberals he appoints to his cabinet, the leftist politically correct person who serves as his Vice President, the Democrat Senators and Congresspersons who will ride his coattails in the election, the World Court and United Nations under whom he will receive "permission," and of course the Clintons, are grateful to you and yours for helping to save their Party and take back "their" country.
