Lewis, 26, is the father of a 2-year-old girl, and says he plans to run on a single issue — Boehner's support of a federal budget that includes funding for Planned Parenthood, which he calls "the largest killer of unborn babies in America."

Without an across the board personal freedom directive, for all we know this candidate will take away all other personal freedoms while saving one.

There is more to freedom promotion than just one issue.

This could backfire on many followers if they jump in too fast.

Great graphic! Point well made (and taken)

Look, it’s encouraging and exciting that someone even wants to challenge the limp noodle. It’s early yet. If the guy is legit, then platforms can be revised accordingly and encompass the issues that are critical to our survival.

For those thinking that the guy doesn’t have a chance, I would encourage you to look at the elections on Tuesday; particularly the NY election with Turner.

"Could backfire." It is at least 99% certain to backfire, to the extent that it has an effect at all.

Did that arms joined picture in a protest even suggest the ability to articulate one's beliefs in a persuasive manner--or merely a form of self-proclamation!

People need to "wake up and smell the coffee," before they try their hands at ideological confrontation. It requires empathy--the ability to understand what motivates others. Without that, you cannot really persuade.

But Boeahner does need to be challenged.
