President Reagan once said: The best vision of big government is in the rear view mirror as youre driving away from it.
The 2000 platform of the Republican Party, still in effect, says: "We are the party that follows its bold words with bold deeds. Since the election of 1860, the Republican Party has had a special calling to advance the founding principles of freedom and limited government and the dignity and worth of every individual. These principles form the foundation of both an agenda for America in the year 2000 and this platform for our party."
Apparently that was all window dressing.
President George W. Bush has expanded the size of the federal government into a gross distortion of his partys principles. The $49-billion No Child Left Behind program pours money at a system that educates the youth of America in the humanist religion. The Medicare bill passed last fall expands the role of the federal government. Modest tax cuts wilt against $15 billion AIDS packages and multi-billion space projects.
Despite President Bushs criticism of President Clintons immigration policy, Americas sovereignty is under siege from moderates and liberals aiming to dissolve the nations borders.
U.S. forces guard the borders of Korea, Afghanistan and Iraq. Our own borders are over-run every single day.
The president has made himself accountable to the globalist Bilderbergs, and a second Bush term will champion a Union of the Americas. Bush tries to please everyone -- to win votes -- and in the end pleases no one. He sends Karl Rove to talk to pro-family groups while Marc Racicot huddles with radical leftist organizations assaulting the American family. For more than three years now, Bush has thrown a few crumbs to conservatives. Those crumbs include a solidly pro-life agenda, a positive presence at the United Nations to oppose the radical culture of death crowd, and the subduing of many terrorists around the world.
The question is whether good Bush outweighs bad Bush.
The larger question is whether or not Bush deserves the vote of conservatives. Many staunch Republicans have sworn to sit out the 2004 presidential election, in the aftermath of the Bush Temporary Worker Program announcement. Of course, Congress could squelch that plan which offers nothing short of amnesty to lawbreakers.
Looking ahead to November, conservatives will consider whether or not the success of a pseudo-conservative is their responsibility. Just as California conservatives had done last fall during a gubernatorial race in which Tom McClintock was the one true conservative candidate.
McClintock did not win the governors office in California, but the McClintock phenomenon lives on this year at a higher level.
Michael Anthony Peroutka, of Millersville, Md., is the Constitution Party candidate for president. He is the founder of the Institute on the Constitution, a nation-wide program teaching the principles incorporated in the Declaration of Independence. Peroutka serves on the Board of Trustees of the Conservative Caucus Research, Analysis and Education Foundation. An attorney by trade, Peroutka is a defender of life, the Constitution and the religious heritage of the United States.
The first item on Peroutkas list of issues concerns our Creator: The attack against the right of the people to acknowledge God is disgraceful and it is un-American. The Constitution Party is committed to an American understanding of law and government -- that rights come from God and that it is the purpose of government to secure and defend them.
Peroutka vows to defend the families of America: Strong families are the essential building blocks of a strong, moral, and just community. But Americas families today are under constant by federally-funded programs that are dangerous and unconstitutional. Government schools are drugging and dumbing down our children, making them dependent and compliant.
The Constitution Partys champion wants to restore this great Republic: America needs and deserves a president that is willing to stand up against the entrenched socialists, elitists, and globalists who presently have a stranglehold on American political power. It is clear that both major political parties are committed to the agenda of the new world order and seek to enforce economic, military and social policies that are antithetical to the interests of the people of America.
America cant do education right because it cant do education constitutionally, Peroutka says.
As president, Peroutka would secure our borders and deport those here illegally. In fact, this would be one of his top priorities.
Conservatives do not have to hold their noses in the voting booth this year. They have the opportunity to vote for a genuine conservative who will not compromise on principle. As Alan Keyes has stated, the lesser of two evils is still evil. Peroutka is the clear choice of conservatives in 2004. It is not the responsibility of conservatives to contribute to the success of candidates who do not share our views. It is AmeriConservatives distinction to endorse Michael Anthony Peroutka for the Office of President of the United States in 2004.

I propose that concerned citizens do what Mr. Durband is doing now and support Michael Peroutka for President now to build public interest now so that when November comes around Americans who want to restore fiscal sanity and Constitutional integrity may do so by voting for his ticket.

I'll be campaigning and voting for President Bush. The way I look at, fiscal sanity and "Constitutional integrity" will be academic when the USA, as a political entity, ceases to exist. Considering the fact any link between the Democrat Party and strength on national defense is purely coincidental.

What kind of reform do you think would be accomplished if Bush were re-elected?

No, I must not be kidding. If you have a point to make, please be specific. This forum is for people who express ideas clearly. Thanks
I think that I made myself clear, I see you got the point.

My support for Bush at this time is based on two issues:
Maintained support for the war.
Court appointments on all levels.
All other issues at this point are luxuries, a distraction.

Nope. Peroutka is campaigning against Kerry, too. He has made the point that Kerry mistakenly refers to our form of government as a democracy when it is actually a Constitutional republic.

I consider the right to life, increasing the national debt, enforcement of border defense, and the freedom of speech to be more than just "luxury" issues.

If we don't win the wars we are facing:
I don't believe Islamic republics allow abortion, it's hard to speak freely without a tongue, borders will be of little matter and when you only have to cloth, teach and provide medical attention to half of your population, national debt has a tendency to fall.

The Fifth Amendment of our Constitution protects such personal liberties, but if we have elected officials that violate the Constitution in other areas, what is to stop us from believing they will uphold the Fifth Amendment? Just the mere fact that there have been federal funding of abortion programs (signed by Bush's pen) shows that even the the right to life is not sacred today.

Do you have a source document on the NJ pro-abortion appointments?

You can call the Legal Center for the Defense of Life in Morristown, NJ, for further information. The lawyers there are volunteers who help and defend pro-life activists and argue for or against certain legislation. They have all the facts. None of the newspaper articles reported on "issues" the articles were written for reporting that an appointment had been made and listed some of thier education and other legal jobs and history.
