Times that try men's souls vs living in interesting times

We are currently experiencing both and it is challenging.

I pray FR survives this election. Our forum has never been so divided. But even more so, I pray our divided nation survives. If traitor Hillary or communist Sanders is elected, it will be difficult to continue as a free nation without invoking certain clauses in the Declaration. Our constitution is certainly being put to the test.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness

God is in charge. The original colonies were established mostly in the name of Judeo-Christianity and primarily for religious freedom. And our current government was founded on Judeo-Christian principles.

Republican, democrat, conservative, liberal, progressive are all political constructs and are useful, but are not the ultimate causes.

God, family, country, liberty are our causes.

We are all created in God's image. God gave us life and liberty. He taught us how to live, how to work, how to fend for ourselves and family, how to govern ourselves, how to defend ourselves our family our country, and how to worship and be faithful. Most of us on FR believe He had a mighty hand on the founding of our nation and that we should continue seeking Him as our guiding light.

Today we are caught up in what could very well be the climatic struggle for our nation's survival. We've been struggling in this nation against godless progressivism for at least 100 years. And, of course, against Satanic Islamic totalitarianism for 1400 years. Now we have the godless progressives, Marxist communists and Satanic Islamic fascist totalitarians all joining forces to try for the final destruction of our Judeo-Christian nation.

We are being invaded from within and without and we will fail as a nation if we do not recognize this and we fail to unite as a free people under God to fight for our survival.

At first I was very skeptical about Donald Trump entering the race. I'm a great believer in Ted Cruz and his godly conservatism. And I pray that if he's the candidate, that the nation bands together and grants him a landslide victory and a mandate to secure our nation and set it back on the righteous path.

But I have to admit that Trump surprised me and got my patriotic emotions stirring again. He is obviously not the evangelical constitutional conservative that Cruz is, but does appear to be a powerful leader with a love for America and freedom. And he's proving that he can pull in large crowds and great numbers in the polls.

As I said, I was skeptical at first, but after watching him campaign and learning some of the details about his Reagan-like tax plan and his determination to secure our borders and secure our nation I became a little more interested. And his non-PC approach to handling the media and the GOPe intrigued me.

His bold statements that we should build a wall, enforce the law, deport them ALL, end the sanctuary cities, end the anchor babies were shocking to most of the political class, but as his polling numbers attest, are exactly what the people want. Even more shocking were his bold statements of going after the families and the mosques of the terrorists and even slapping a moratorium on Muslim immigration. Shocking, but again, exactly what we need if we are to survive the war the Muslims are waging against us.

The political class to a man immediately rejected these bold statements as being unconstitutional and un-American, but as they see the people are for them, they are starting to come around.

Am I totally sold on Trump? Not yet. But if he continues as he is and doesn't blowup, he could very well be our nominee. And if so, I will support him to the hilt.

We have two great candidates in Cruz and Trump and I hope neither are knocked out too soon. We have RINO amnesty pimps Rubio, Kasich, Bush, et al, lurking just behind. And the GOPe is far from dead.

Go, Cruz, Go!

Go, Trump, Go!

Either way, we win, they lose.

And I pray one of these two gets it and that we can all join forces against the true enemy when he does.

God us all and bless America.

And FReepers, please quit attacking each other. We're all in this together.

I have a fleeting thought that perhaps Palin said whoever is ahead between them at such and such a date before the primary, gets the endorsement. I hope that came with a promise that the other gets the VP nod...I may be wrong and get flamed. I see the history of each and their flaws, one bigger flawed than the other but, oh well. I do hope my fellow Freepers put their weapons down, sharp pencils, and stop hating the one while supporting the other (rabidly); I like Cruz better but will clearly still crawl over broken glass to vote for Trump and vica versa.

And that is why I'm the last dog to die on Cruz. I trust him to be Cruz. I trust Trump to be Trump, but I really don't know what Trump is.

If traitor Hillary or communist Sanders is elected...

Jim, and all:

Please stop referring to Mrs. Clinton as "Hillary". It's way too warm for that horrible woman. It conveys a warmth that she does not deserve. Notice that you referred to "Sanders" and not "Bernie". At least do the same for Mrs. Clinton and drop the "Hillary" bit.

I prefer the same. But I remember swallowing my pride and voting for Romney in a futile attempt to prevent a second term for Hussein.

I think he is a capitalist who loves America and freedom.

I also know what Hillary and Sanders are. Godless Marxist/fascist America-hating, liberty-hating traitors.

Trump has already done a great service by bringing Immigration to the front and center. Stopping Islamic imperialism is also a nice touch when it was all but untouchable by anybody else. I’ve been for Cruz from the beginning but I’ll still happily vote for Trump for his common sense positions on Islam and Undocumented Democrats.

Very well said Jim and perfect timing. While people are fighting over Cruz or Trump what is Obama up to? I liked this race earlier when Trump and Cruz were liking each other.
