Liberty candidate for Nevada 2010 Senate

I think this guy would be able to win the general election, or at least have a good chance at doing so. Getting the nomination is the real issue.
 
Does Nevada have a candidate for the third congressional district there? Apparently the GOP needs a new candidate...

For the moment, the GOP in Nevada is scrambling, after Republican banker John Guedry abruptly dropped his bid to compete for the suburban 3rd district seat in Congress against freshman Democrat Dina Titus. Republicans might get bailed out, however, as their entreaties might have hit home with their "plan B" candidate. The millisecond Guedry dropped out, apparently, party leaders began working on state legislator Joe Heck, who is (at present) a candidate for Governor. On Friday night, Heck's campaign manager seemed to make clear that Heck was not switching races. Today, however, Heck refused to rule it out, and said it was something that required the obligatory family discussion. Stay tuned.

Please point me to where he is not a raging (foreign intervention, empire building, fight the war on terror with everthing we got) kind of candidate

Like Brian4Liberty pointed out above, he's a C4L member. It's highly unlikely that he's a neocon. At http://www.parsonforsenate2010.com/platform/ he explains his position that America should respond against aggressors and their sponsors when American citizens are attacked; that's true.
 
It is ludicrous that this charlatan chould be considred a freedom movement candidate. In a lon, extensive we page in which he discussed dozens of issues large and small there is not one word abouth the United States carrying on two undeclared wars, invading two nations that had neither threatened nor carried out any possible offense against us, and slaughtering civilians or displacing from their homes by the hundreds of thousands. Supporting two faced moly coddlers like this is what got us eight years of George Bush.

It is absurd that you would come to such an assessment based upon what is not said about foreign policy. You have presented no evidence whatsoever that this man is a 'charlatan.' You are simply speculating based upon absence. The only thing I see which may cause some suspicion is a link to this video:

YouTube - Harry Reid: Iraq War Is Lost


However, there's also a link to this video:

YouTube - Milton Friedman - Abolish the FED!


And there's discussion of targeting for removal federal judges who abuse the Constitution, supporting state sovereignty and getting rid of the IRS. And he links to http://www.campaignforliberty.com/index.php

While he's not perfect, what candidate is? He's exponentially better than Sen. Reid.

0^anything is still zero :p.

Although I agree, he's a much better candidate and the GOP could do much worse.
 
Sorry foreign policy is #1 on my list. I would give him a pass if he was running for Gov. But in the Senate we could decide the next war of aggression we fight.

I can deal with social issues.

But a trillion dollar war with over 4,000 soldiers killed, maybe 100,000 Iraqi civilians, undeclared, reasons for going changing every few months, objective changing every few months.

If he agrees we should have went to war in Iraq and thinks Reid is some kind of traitor because he wanted to pull out, then everything he says is put into question. It shows his base is not the Constitution but rather what HE thinks is right.

Perhaps you should e-mail him and ask for clarification on his position.

Finally some sense. We should never bitch unless we've already tried and failed to get an answer from the candidate.

Plus, it MAKES SENSE for him to be quiet on the foreign policy thing, because there are quite a few pro-war republicans out there, and he's running for the GOP nomination. So long as the war isn't the center of the issues debate, it's best to ignore it if it's divisive. Save that shit for the general election!!!

This.

I emailed him about his position on the Fairtax. I'll let you all know if/how he responds.

Hopefully you're not too hung up on the Fairtax. Even Ron Paul has said that he'd vote for it if it crossed his desk.
 
I live in Nevada. I was watching some news this morning and when they announced that Sue Lowden was going to run --- see http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=212945 --- and mentioned some of the other Republican contenders, they did not mention Bill Parson.

When I saw that, I thought that maybe he was running as an independent. So I went to http://www.fec.gov/ to look up the race and no, Parson is running as a Republican. See http://www.fec.gov/DisclosureSearch...tion_yr=2010&category=stateS_all&stateName=NV

This isn't going to be an easy primary. As of today, there's 9 Republicans listed as candidates on that FEC report, and with Lowden that's at least 10 now. But Parson is one of only two Republicans on that list that has any money listed, and yet he still wasn't named by the news.

Is the establishment trying to avoid Parson? I don't know. Maybe. It wouldn't surprise me.
