I completely missed that article.
I don’t remember it.
Thanks.
My pleasure. My own view is that no matter who becomes federal President,
Tea Party candidates must be elected to as many offices at as many levels of government as possible. A hypertrophic obsession with the federal presidency at this time is self-defeating. Our side needs to have a broader focus. The government must be peopled with as many Tea Party conservatives as possible.
Next, we’ve got to get someone who will talk about the federal reserve. Perry at least showed awareness of a problem in this area with his remarks on “helicopter Ben’s” printing press treason. .
Then, our trade policies with foreign countries need a total overhaul. The “Free trade” ideology has morphed into a national suicide pact. Trump was right on this particular point (and looking back, so was Perot and even Paddie Buchanan). I doubt that Trump would stoop to become Commerce Secretary, but someone like Thad McCotter might (Jack is also a McCotter fan). If we can get these issues on the table, we might have just enough time, with the grace of God, to get our national finances in some semblance of order.
A Tea Party Congress and a Pres Perry won’t be a cure-all. Even with the ideal people in office, I expect we’ll have to lock horns with our preferred candidates at some point, just as we did during the amnesty dust up in 2007. Nevertheless, those are battles we can win and I can live with that. I don’t see things playing out any other way given the current array of forces.
It’s getting late in the day to wait on people with “great potential.” We need a concrete person who’s in the game and can deliver results. Freedom still lives, but the socialist twilight is gathering.
