“Anyone still willfully pushing for him as President needs to be laughed out of conservatism.”

I truly believe that we should be trying to elect as many people as possible from outside the system. American politics has been infiltrated, and I don’t think any of us know for sure who can be trusted and who can’t from within the system.

The only way to be sure is to bring in fresh blood that is untainted. That in and of itself isn’t easy, but it is necessary.

Well, we know by his actions, Ron Jr. is absolutely a company man. He proves it about once a week.

The Pauls aren’t conservatives, and while they self-identify as Republicans, they are obviously Democrats in the good old KKK tradition.

There is no existing mechanism for it and if there were it would already be corrupted - but I truly believe we would be better represented if officeholders were selected randomly from the population at large.

25 years or older, not bedridden, insane, or any felony convictions - and otherwise selected by random lottery.

It will never happen, but we would get better people than the professional charlatans.
