Food for thought

Bad politicians are often elected by people that don't vote.

That right there is the REAL problem. Good one B&B. How does a country that is free not to vote get more of it's citizens to vote?

I think we need a starting point, or we play into the liberal narrative towards socialism= How stupid and hard headed do we remain? How more ignorant can any one of the 54 million conservative Christians be by sitting back and refuse to vote because they disagree with a few principals of a select candidate, if they are waiting for the perfect candidate, you will sit on the side lines for an entire life...Hence my definition of a one Rand Paul...However thoughtful on constitutional matters, the man scares the hell out of me on defending our Nation, we need someone who is willing and able to recognize the threats to America and Americans and will use whatever force necessary to defeat the enemy, this man lacks the balls when crunch times comes and as of yesterday and today, it's crunch time people! That said, should he get the GOP nod....I vote for the man simply because he represents one more time in my view the lesser of two evils! In my book, Rand Paul is NOT my choice nor is Trump, nor are most of the rest of the hopefuls....Any single Republican candidate beats the alternative.

I got to refrain from these post, You either get this or you don't!

To bad they aren't like mister potato head dolls huh, an arm hear, a ear there and put together the best candidate from all the candidates. I hear that a lot about Rand Paul, the only problem is that Congress has the power to declare war not the president, furthermore, two things. Our debt is dangerous, possibly more so than any other threat out there, remember why empires fail. All through history they fail because they over extend themselves. Romans, England, Russia, America?. Second, our defense should not be an offense. It does not make us more safe to go around violating other country's sovereignty and bombing wedding parties. That makes more enemies both in those countries and from other allies around the world. No, it's time to rethink our foreign policy. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is insanity. Just as insane as liberals thinking socialism will work hear even though it has failed around the world.

Peace can only be obtained through superior fire power...The only thing any enemy understands is knowing beyond a doubt we will tolerate zero nonsense and have the fire power to back it up, this is what deeply troubles me about Rand Paul, I agree with his analogy about sticking our nose in where it doesn't belong, but by burying your head in the sand will only serve to get us all killed, some point soon, we need to profile and address the problem within our own borders, don't matter if we are trillions in debt or debt free, really doesn't concern radical Muslims intent on killing us all! Our current POTUS has this process backwards and prefers to profile honest law abiding Americans and offer a free pass to his own kind.....I truly believe we need to secure our borders and arm ourselves to the hilt and mind our own business and when any enemy becomes a threat, we simply eliminate them. The same applies when I'm in grizzly bear country, I'm not looking to provoke an attack but rather end it quickly!

The last presidential election we found conservative Christians unable to support and vote for a Mormon, so by refusing to turn out and vote, elected a radical Anti American! Makes me sick to think we are set to repeat the same thing all over.

O, hey Barbra (AKA mike martell, aka the chump) hehe have you guys ever seen a monkey try and f### a football? That is what this reminds me of. Check out this chart that I got of a documentary called the flaw on Netflix. Note when the chart starts to tank is when the right wingers poster boy took office in the 1980s. He got in bed with Merrill Lynch and turned out the stock market bull, this is good for people like me that can make money in a bull market but not the general public or halfwits like Barbra (AKA mike martell).

That's pretty much the founder's idea as well as Paul's. Maybe if we started to ostracize and make fun of people we meet that don't vote, doesn't seem right but with mail in ballots, there really is no reason that most people shouldn't vote. Without the majority voting, all we get are the extreme's and the loonies getting what they want.

Hounds, you're getting old. Can't libs make a point without resorting to name calling? It's probably in the Rules for Radicals book. Part of the plan eh? Hounds, if you are a liberal, you do realize that they are just as much to blame as the republicans are right? Maybe even more so for using the low income and minority segments of our population as pawns for their "progressive", read regressive ideology. Which is implemented and then paid for by BORROWING 10 million dollars a minute. You to are a pawn too. It's the reds fault. This shit ain't football. Partisanship is killing this country. Listen to what politicians say, read how they vote, then watch the outcomes of their policies. Remember presidents can only do so much, the house and the senate, by the design of the US Constitution have more power than the president. Who had control of the house and senate during Reagan's and Carter's presidency? Personally, that's who bears most of the blame.
