I do not think that the Republican party should even have a candidate in 2016. Let the Dems run unopposed. Then all the people will have to stop and ask themselves the question they have not in many many years: “What kind of country DO I want? What system of government would work best for America and why?” We are either going to return to founding principles or we will eventually return to them by exigenxy (but there is no guarantee that this will happen).
The questions faced by American now is NOT “Who should I vote for?” but “What system of government do I wnat to live under and why?” They should know though that time is running out for even making that choice. Once we re-establish government by tyranny, the only way to dislodge it is by force of arms.
I believe by 2016 we could very well have a hot “civil war”.
