Ps: what I am saying above is that we cannot rely on many published articles or even “analyses” when they appear in the mass media today. Too much uninformed or biased , distorted writing. Secondly, if you want to support a candidate, tell us why you think s/he will do good things in office — and dont twist facts or history. One argument could be that since Obama is clearly ineligible (daddy, forgetting where Obama was or wasn’t born) but has nevertheless been permitted to occupy the office, that any of several other similarly- ineligible candidates should now be permitted to maybe win the office too. Not the world’s strongest argument but at least it doesn’t misstate American history.
“Not the world’s strongest argument but at least it doesn’t misstate American history.”
1. Two wrongs do not make a right.
2. The Soviet Union had a constitution which guaranteed many noble rights, yet the totalitarian Communist government systematically destroyed those rights and tens of millions of Soviet lives while doing so. In each case, this totalitarianism was made possible by the direct abrogation of the written constitution/s and by the indirect subversion of those constitutions.
3. In case after case, each totalitarian government gained power and wielded power against the citizens by first subverting the rule of law and their constitutional governments.
4. If you want to preserve Freedom, you must first preserve the freedoms in law, and then act to preserve that rule of law responsible for preserving those freedoms. You cannot do that by embarking or tolerating infringements upon the rule of law or the infringement of Freedom in those laws.
