So if the Constitution Party ever has an elected representative, are you saying that not one political benefit will go to political friends and allies? I somehow doubt that.

You defenders of corruption seemed determined to force words into my mouth. Finding none of my own that you can use against my arguments, you choose instead to invent them yourselves then coyley ask if they are mine.

Should we come to authority, the chief benefit our friends will get is the benefit of an end to using the government to give political benefits- save for those that are iminical to the process. A party that beleives in much smaller federal government will not so many political benefits to give. A party that does not believe in taking earnings from one group of Americans in order to use it to buy the votes of another group of Americans who have not earned it will not have as many benefits to give.

Our supporters will be the ones appointed to serve, we shall not appoint our enemies to enact our agenda. I suppose then it depends on how you define "political benefit". Certainly nothing this unseemly will be allowed to pass muster.
