And so, since the old vehicle is obviously worn out and useless, we're building a new one. That's what free Americans do.
From now on, we'll only support candidates based on America's founding principles, and any prospective leader's record of adherence to them, NOT obviously meaningless party labels.
Our attitude? The same as our last Independent President, George Washington:
"Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair; the rest is in the hands of God."
My understanding of history is that it is those who take this attitude who end up winning in the end, no matter the odds.
Thank God they didn't waste their lives calculating outcomes. They were too busy simply doing the right thing, and trusting in God's Providence to carry the day.
. With all the 3rd parties taking off...one will sooner or later soar.
MyTake on this years Presidential race
Something to consider this election year. That Barack Hussein Obama is even ahead of John McCain at all and has been at least since Obama wrapped up his race with Hillary Clinton should say more about the Republican presidential candidate than it does about the Democrat presidential candidate. Considering that if this were any other election year it would be completely understandable if these two men were most any other typical party candidates. But with Obama apparently being the most extreme left wing tax and spend liberally Marxist/communist/socialist and least inexperienced candidate in our nations history that I'm aware of for any major office and that McCain is trailing Obama in most national polls by anywhere from 1 to 6 points and is only marginally (3-5 points - statistically tied) behind McCain here in Texas gives us a critical clue as to just how bad this Republican candidate really is in comparison.
If it weren't for John McCain and his effort to move the party to the center-left and stiffing the Christian conservatives most any other typical Republican candidate in the race would be out front by 15-20 points or more. If this doesn't reveal just how bad and weak McCain and the RNC is I don't know what else would. This also says a lot as well about those pushing his candidacy with so much at stake. I don't even think Texas, where everyone knows everything is bigger, makes clothespins big enough to block out the stench emanating from this candidate this year. Texas for sure is also risking losing its majority share of statewide elected Republican officials due to the typical coat-tail effect. It appears that the Democrats will be in control of both the White House and Congress as well come November. Can anyone say shades of the 'Whig Party'?!
Please don’t compare yourself to the Founders while you help Obama seat a couple more whackjobs on the SCOTUS who will rubberstamp Roe vs. Wade for another generation.
Please don’t compare yourself to the Founders while you promote a tax plan that will involve establishing the largest government entitlement program in world history.
Please don’t compare yourself to the men who put George Washington at the head of the Continental Army while you prepare to help a clueless neophyte become commander-in-chief in a time of war.
I wish your party well...beginning on the first Wednesday in November. Until then, you’re part of the problem, not part of the solution. Until then, you’re not only thinking Nineveh will get better by electing Jonah to Mayoral office, you’re thinking Nineveh will get better if we have Ahab run Nineveh for four years and then elect Jonah.
