Jim, there is a Republican Candidate in the field who meets ALL of your criteria.
Every single one.
PRO-GOD -- Jim, I have been posting since 1999 (I have one old screen name, Uriel1975, a "legacy" account from my old days before I rejoined the Church), and I know that you have always supported the Christian Church while never taking sides in any inter-denominational squabbles.
- RON PAUL is the ONLY socially-conservative Candidate defending the independence of the Christian Church against Federal "Faith-Based Socialism".
- "Government funding of religious organizations will transform them into adjuncts of the federal welfare state, more concerned about obeying federal rules and regulations than fulfilling the obligations of their faith." – Ron Paul (source). Every other so-called "social conservative" candidate actually FAVORS this underhanded Orwellian Federal assault on the Freedom of the Christian Church.
PRO-Country, Family, Life and Liberty.
- Ron Paul introduced the Sanctity of Life Act of 2005, recognizing the Personhood of every unborn baby and removing Abortion from the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
- Ron Paul is rated ZERO percent by the National Abortion Rights Action League.
- Ron Paul is an original co-sponsor of the Marriage Protection Act.
- Ron Paul voted to ban Homosexual adoption in Washington DC.
Strong national security, national defense,
- Ron Paul voted for the National Missile Defense Act. (source)
- Ron Paul is one of only two co-sponsors of H. Res. 123, for the establishment of a Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs to "conduct a full investigation of all unresolved matters relating to any United States personnel unaccounted for from the Vietnam era, the Korean conflict, World War II, Cold War Missions, or Gulf War, including MIA's and POW's." (POW-MIA InterNetwork)
POW/MIA: You Are Not Forgotten - Ron Paul supports a strengthened Coast Guard and increased port security, and increased benefits for veterans.
- "Ron Paul is one of the outstanding leaders fighting for a stronger national defense. As a former Air Force officer, he knows well the needs of our armed forces, and he always puts them first. We need to keep him fighting for our country." --U.S. President Ronald Reagan
National sovereignty.
- Ron Paul advocates United States withdrawal from the United Nations and withdrawal from the World Trade Organization. Says Ron Paul: "We don’t need CAFTA or any other international agreement to reap the economic benefits promised by CAFTA supporters, we only need to change our own harmful economic and tax policies. Let the rest of the world hurt their citizens with tariffs; if we simply reduce tariffs and taxes at home, we will attract capital and see our economy flourish."
- Ron Paul voted for the Secure Fence Act of 2006. “Amnesty for lawbreakers is not the answer, and it’s time to rethink birthright citizenship,” Paul added. ("Paul Votes for Stronger Border Security")
- Ron Paul is a co-sponsor of HR 487, which "expresses the sense of Congress that the United States should not engage in the construction of a NAFTA superhighway or enter into any plans to create a North American Union between Canada, the U.S., and Mexico."
- "We need to allocate far more resources, both in terms of money and manpower, to securing our borders and coastlines here at home. This is the most critical task before us, both in terms of immigration problems and the threat of foreign terrorists. Unless and until we secure our borders, illegal immigration and the problems associated with it will only increase." – Ron Paul (source)
Limited Constitutional government, spending, and taxes.
- Ron Paul is ranked by Human Events as the biggest Tax Cutter in all of Congress. Paul Named #1 Tax Cutter in Congress: “(Paul) is a co-sponsor… of a constitutional amendment to repeal the 16th amendment and end income, gift, and estate taxes. Regularly pushes for tax cuts. Sponsor of bills to allow tax credits for private school tuition, to permit tax deduction of college tuition, and to stop all taxation of Social Security benefits. Opposes all unconstitutional spending programs.”
- Ron Paul has ranked in the 99th percentile of the National Taxpayer Union ratings every year he has been in Congress -- thus standing head and shoulders above his big government Republican rivals like gun-grabber John McCain, transvestite Rudy Giuliani, "Amnesty Sam" Brownback, Mike "Bill Clinton embodies the American Dream" Huckabee, and Pork-Barrel King Duncan Hunter.
- "Dr. Ron Paul (R-TX), a pro-life obstetrician, leans towards Paleolibertarianism on most issues and Paleoconservatism on others. He would have America return to Non-interventionism, the Gold standard, and States' rights. He would have America Abolish the Federal Reserve, Abolish the Income Tax, and Repeal the Seventeenth Amendment" ~~ (http://orientem.blogspot.com/search/label/Ron%20Paul%20for%20President) (as called for by "Jim Robinson" of Free Republic -- Congressman Ron Paul is the ONLY Republican supporting this Free Republic proposal)
Individual Rights and State's Rights.
- "Congress Unanimously Supports Paul Amendment to Protect Civil Liberties"
- Ron Paul is one of only five Congressman to have an A+ Rating from the Gun Owners of America.
- Ron Paul Denounces National ID Card.
The ruling government of Iraq is dominated by the psychopathic gang of murderers known as the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) and the Islamic Al Dawa Party, who are the very same Islamic Terrorist Parties which bombed the US & French Embassies in Kuwait, and murdered 241 United States Marines in Beirut in 1983. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, of the Al Dawa Party, was the Bureau Chief of the Al Dawa Party's terrorist "Jihad Office" in Damascus in the 1980s and was thus heavily responsible for Al Dawa operations in Beirut, while parliament member Jamal Jafaar Mohammed of his ruling coalition is one of the "Kuwait 17", still under a Kuwaiti death sentence (in absentia) for his direct involvement in the vicious attack on the US Embassy in Kuwait!
Jim -- Why should the Federal Government spend American Blood and Treasure defending these Anti-American Terrorist Scum? Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate calling for an immediate END to all Military and Financial support for the criminal Islamic Terrorist thug-regime of Iraq.
There is only ONE Candidate who stands for God, country, family, life and liberty. Strong national security, national defense, national sovereignty. Limited (constitutional) government, spending, taxes. Individual rights and state's rights.
Only ONE Candidate who was a "Reagan Republican" long before Reagan was Cool.
His name is: RON PAUL.
"Mr. Speaker, all Americans mourn the death of President Ronald Reagan, but those of us who had the opportunity to know him are especially saddened. I got to know President Reagan in 1976 when, as a freshman congressman, I was one of only four members of that body to endorse then-Governor Reagan’s primary challenge to President Gerald Ford. I had the privilege of serving as the leader of President Reagan’s Texas delegation at the Republican convention of 1976, where Ronald Reagan almost defeated an incumbent president for his party’s nomination. I was one of the millions attracted to Ronald Reagan by his strong support for limited government and the free-market. I felt affinity for a politician who based his conservative philosophy on '...a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom.' I wish more of today’s conservative leaders based their philosophy on a desire for less government and more freedom." – Ron Paul, Remembering Ronald Reagan
