Actually, I think now that the Constitution Party is the only home we have. I now see the Republican party as a mission field for conservative 'political missionaries.'
I mean, Ron Paul is the only major candidate who anyone in their right mind would believe will actually shrink and cut back our bloated, totalitarian government (to say nothing of the rest of his conservative worldview), and look at the vicious hate poured on him from within the Socialist, I mean, Republican party. To say nothing of the attempts to smear everyone who supports him as some kind of weirdo. (Some of his supporters are fringe types, but that's incidental to the fact that he's the only option for a consistent conservative in this race.)
Thank you. You presented an interesting point of view.
You are right that Ron Paul holds consistent small government positions. However, I believe he is wrong on Iraq and his anti war views tend to marginalize him among a majority of Republicans. It seems to me he is running in the wrong party. Of course, the hard reality is that no other party has a chance of winning the presidency at this time.
Perhaps in the future a viable third party will emerge. I just don’t see that happening yet.
