We hear precious little from any of the other candidates about reigning in an out of control Fed, Taking back control of our money from the world banksters, drastically cutting the size and scope of the Federal Government by eliminating entire agencies, or about simply taking the Constitution seriously when it comes to States rights and the power that is reserved to the people.

Only the kooks actually go there. None of the other candidates give any of that more than token lip service, and little, if any, actual observable action.

Why is that?

Why?

Even Sarah Palin, who will get my vote if she runs, doesn’t seem to be able to take the leadership of support for the Constitution from Ron Paul.

How did seriously following the Constitution become the new third rail in this country?

How did we let Ron Paul become the primary owner of that political position?

This essay boiled down to raw facts is just a tepid assertion to cowtow to the ideology of Northeastern Liberal and Moderate Republicans.

Their rallying cry is:

“We want our money and smaller Constitutional Government.
But send the Neo-Cons (anybody who believes in “Peace through Strenght”)....and send the Social Conservatives home.

We Conservatives don’t accept Mitt Romney, who is at least sane when it comes to fighting terrorists and having a sound Foreign and Military policy.

But we should accept Ron Paul, who’s radical beliefs are to the Left of Obama on many issues in the NatSecurity and Social Issues area?

Sorry, if they want to come along in the Conservative / libertarian / Independent coalition...as with Reagan, fine.

But I will not entertain the lie that they are conservatives or any more acceptable than NE Liberals in the GOP.

Because he's the only one who has been willing to take the heat for it. I wish that weren't true too. God Knows it would be a whole lot better to have a younger, prettier candidate who espoused those values and put their careers on the line with it, but am still waiting for that candidate -- and he/she is nowhere in sight.
