In 2010, also before his run for the presidency, Newt stated categorically on the tour for his insightful book “To Save America” that the Obama regime is “the most radical administration in American history. ... (This is) a secular socialist machine ... deeply opposed to God being in public life ... deeply opposed to religious values defining how we think about things. ... They clearly represent a value system that any reasonable person would call secular ... on a scale that is the opposite of the Founding Fathers.”

If they looked at the sorry collection we have today, they’d think the king of England wasn’t so bad after all....

For Whom Would America's Founders Vote for President?

I don't think it is "whom" they would vote for, rather, it is "whom" they would even allow to be considered for a vote.
Let's face it, the Constitution has been under attack for a very long time now and by and large this country is completely asleep at the wheel. We are in decline and if we had founders of the original intent, many candidates would be too damn scared to peddle their bullshit for fear of an actual consequence.

I saw this line on Twitter recently:

If Obama had been present at the founding of this country, he would have written the Declaration of Dependence.

..I can see Newt sitting down with Hamilton, Franklin and Jefferson and having a rich intellectual discussion—while the other candidates would have to wait out in the hall...

I think they’d take Ron Paul to school on several facts about the the Constitution...

It was not intended as a license to remove morality from public policy.

“Defending the borders” isn’t about literally putting troops on the border, it’s about doing whatever it takes to defeat our enemies, such as taking out the Barbary pirates on the open seas.

It’s called the UNITED States for a reason. We’re not a series of loosely connected independent countries that can secede whenever they want to.

Lol. Paul would have been a redcoat loyalist complaining the Founders weren’t adhering to the original intent of the King and were warmongers.

In my opinion, the Founding Fathers would be so disgusted that they would not vote for any of them, but would organize a second revolution and bring this country back to where it belongs.

“I don't think it is “whom” they would vote for, rather, it is “whom” they would even allow to be considered for a vote.”

My guess is that they would also question “whom” is allowed to vote.

So do I. Besides Newt knows their writings inside out, so he is the only one who could chat at leisure with them :)

Ron Paul doesn’t even know what a Commander-in-Chief job is really like.

Paul sees one as an old coot, smoking pot and pontificate to young drug-addicts ...

There is no question the founders would support Ron Paul, the only candidate who wants to control the size, scope, and power of the US Government, to restore it to something they would be capable of recognizing. RON PAUL 2012!
