constitutionalist != a member of Constitution Party.

Besides, Soviet party members claims that they live in a democratic country.

Alan Keyes and Ron Paul (who is still a Republican) vie for the Presidential nomination of the Constitution Party

Anyone else seen this? Is it for real?

I wish. The Constitution Party or the Libertarian Party nomination is Ron Paul's on a silver plate, if he just asks for it. But Dr. Paul says he isn't going to run third party.

 

[FSP-Rebel]

I would be officially through considering the CP as a viable 3rd party if they nominate Keyes. In fact, that would tank their montra as the biggest 3rd party. I'm more of an LP guy, though I don't waste money on them any more. My money goes to Free Talk Live and the Free State Project. FTL is the biggest and most pure libertarian radio show in the world. Any RP supporter would enjoy this show, considering the hosts have all given money to the campaign as well as they've continually talked about him for the last year straight.

What happens if Ron Paul is drafted to the CP nomination? Would he then outright reject it or use it as the new vehicle for the movement, or keep it as an Ace in his pocket as we go to the convention, or what?

Interesting dynamics there. Dr. Paul won't run third party ... but he might be drafted into it. Fascinating.

 

[Jaykzo]

Wait, we're talking about the same Alan Keyes that disowned his daughter after finding out she was gay, while cutting off his funding for her college education and leaving her no place to live?


Naw, I'll pass.

CP = theocrats.

Yes they are constitional, but they believe the state should be unfluenced by the church

Actually, you have it backwards. The LP wants the state unfluenced by the church, and the CP wants the state influenced by the church.

You might be on to something there. That would be a very interesting turn of events. It would also invoke even more leverage for Dr. Paul at the NEOCON convention.

suprised you would challenge the principle of harming others.

The Constitution Party is supposedly pro-liberty, but manages to also be anti-pornography. Somehow, they reconcile this difference.

yes but liberty doesnt give parties the right to harm others, especially the weakest and most vulnerable in our society.

 

[scandinaviany3]

what about Roy Moore/goldwater jr.

You know though...the trick here is not the CP, LP, reform, greens, etc.

But a viable independent run with 3rd parties co-nominating an independent candidate to give them ballot access in as many states as possible.

Having no party control the ticket is the best of all worlds.

Americans appear to want:

-economy fixed
-no amnesty and leaving of all criminal illegals from US
-out of iraq
-anti NWO efforts

So we arent going to see any of these issues addressed by hillary, obama or mccain.

But when looking over resumes we know Ron wont run.

But those who have supported Ron and have some fame and following include:

Chuck Baldwin, Walter Williams, Napolitano, Roy Moore, Goldwater Jr, Lou Dobbs, Mel Gibson's father.

I believe when you see this list you can easily see a way for Ron to endorse a ticket from within this group.

For govt experience and fame Roy Moore and Goldwater Jr leap to the front.

I doubt Goldwater Jr. would want to run at the head of the ticket. But no reason for Ron's friend not to run as VP.

Second Mr. Moore has been hunted by the Bush NWO guys, is super supported by the illegal immigration groups and faith groups. He is a living legend in their communities and very anti NWO!

I personally vote for some good old Paulite spirit to unite the factions behind these two guys...

i agree with keyes being a mess....

But a Moore/Goldwater ticket i believe would win in 2008.

It would be up to us to recruit signature collectors quickly in all the states, contact mr. goldwater and mr. Moore to ok the petition...

I would expect that union would draw in 40% of the US voting population and give us the 100 million + we need to run the race to win!

 

[FreeTraveler]

I don't think the CP would have the power to make some of the changes it wants to make without amending the Constitution (which would be legal, but unlikely).

That didn't slow the neocons down one little bit, now, did it?

The only government I fear worse than the one we have today is a theocracy.

 

[yongrel]

yes but liberty doesnt give parties the right to harm others, especially the weakest and most vulnerable in our society.

How does porn hurt the weakest and most vulnerable?

All I see is a 3rd party trying to legislate religious morality, which I'm not a fan of.

 

[Shink]

Well, remember awhile back on LRC? The rumors about Ron Paul and Bob Barr meeting and possibly planning something, perhaps a ticket together? I saw on thirdpartywatch somebody confirm that they did indeed meet, but what the talk was about and what will result are still unknown. Maybe something beautiful is on the way.

 

[Jeremy]

The Constitution, Libertarian, and Reform parties have already endorsed Paul... RP is not running for them... but they want him.

 

[torchbearer]

constitutionalist != a member of Constitution Party.

Besides, Soviet party members claims that they live in a democratic country.

They did live in a "democratic" country, they just weren't smart enough to fake opposotion and split the communist party into two "competing" parties with the same agenda....
that is the only difference between modern day USSA and the old USSR.

It would be very interesting if they just went ahead and nominate him anyway. I strongly doubt that Ron Paul will accept as he's still running for GOP nomination, but this could be useful as an ace in his sleeve.

I dunno. They didn't have to fake opposition because communist party was just so darned popular! How could millions of communists be possibly wrong?!? Any one who didn't like the communist agenda, liked it!

They wasted no time posturing, that's for sure.

I'm talking about that is the only difference between the collectivist here and those collectivist in the USSR.
Here- people "think" they have a choice when really its just two branches of the same tree.
In russia they were more upfront about it... "we will have elections so you can choose which one of us is going to rule over you- us being the people of this ONE communist party."
so they have as much democracy as we have today, and we have just as many choices thank to a mysterious media black-out on the only real alternative in the presidential race.

 

[Banana]

torchbearer, I understand that. I was making humor of how Soviets would probably have presented their case for having only one party. None of that frilly pandering and silly grandstanding. Everything was more simple. You voted. Communists win. No need for those debates or spins. It get tiring after a while, you know?

Too bad I can't find that Tintin cartoon someone posted on other thread a while ago... It was so perfect.... It was in french.

 

[ItsTime]

now we have vote dem or vote rep and you have neo-con oh well im tired.

your joking right?
