You know full well that this is not possible when the Parties will only trot out their trick ponies as a candidate, and all the ponies know only one trick. You really think anyone wanted Bush? He was all that was offered for us to "make do" with.
Don't try to use tired, old, slogans with me, it's lame. It's time for a change.
Bravo Sierra. Anyone who meets the requirements outlined in the Constitution can run in the primary; the hard part is winning the primary, and that sort of thing is why God invented the concept known as "work."
You really think anyone wanted Bush?
Yes, actually, they did. That's why he survived the primary process.
He was all that was offered for us to "make do" with.
Hey, Keyes was running.
Don't try to use tired, old, slogans with me, it's lame.
The loser's standard complaint: "WAAH! IT'S NOT FAIR!"
It's time for a change.
The make the change happen. Or is that just a little too much like work for your taste?
No, it doesn't. Remember that elections are LOCALLY decided. That means that any hypothesized vote fraud takes place at the local level.
BTW, would you like some cheese and moose to go with your whine?
You must be very naive to believe that ballot boxes were not stuffed locally on the orders of the national party in the last election. How do you think Hillary attained the heights of Senatehood? There were five thousand more votes than registered voters in New Mexico alone.
Too much power is concentrated in D.C., far, far, too much power. Since you like to quote this one and that, how about "Absolute power corrupts absolutely"? Power needs to be drained from D.C. and taken back by the States and local governments, so stop whining about it.=o)
It is accomplished by just such actions as Grant County took for a start, then citizens of a state demanding more action from their governors just saying no to D.C. and sending their entangling Federal money back to them, sans their input.
Placing a ceiling on just how much the citizens of their states can be taxed by D.C. and limiting or ending control of the Fed over their resources and population and being willing to back up their laws with their own national guard, in co-operation with other states if it becomes neccessary. Change begins at the bottom with the individual citizen joining with other like minded individuals and growing support for their idea's based on the basic logic of the right of survival, it's time for a change.
You are probably correct. However, to see citizens rise up and spit in the face of their government is encouraging. Almost leads one to believe that citizens could become even more audacious in their acts of insolence, toward a U.N. loving Socialist government.Would you agree?
The high prices of electricity devastated small businesses in Oregone last year.
Portland and the other left wing cities in Oregone work 24/7 to slam business and to promote the zero people equation of the enviro whackos. This drives business away. Intel basically told the anti business whackos to forget it. This killed future construction of Intel offices or enlargement of their campus in Beaverton.
Add all of the above and other anti business/human agendas brought on by the enviral nazis and their governor to our national recession and loss of tourism after 9/11 put Oregon in a terrible situation re financial. The WSJ early last year put Oregon up as one of the first states to be in a full blown recession. Its sister states, also, ruled by Enviral Fascist Governors, Washington and Kali are right there with Oregone!
