The American Dream is preserved on paper. Declaration of Independence, Constitution , Federalist Papers, Anti Federalist papers...etc. tones
Very true, but if you want us to support your candidate, you have to go down to the reasons why someone thinks or feels about that candidate. Express those reasons; defend those reasons. It's all in the name of civil discourse, and as you espoused earlier, educating the populace.
You have that opportunity. You have that opportunity to support John McCain here. Tell us why he will make a great president. We're right here, we're listening.
How is that unprincipled??Ron Paul is a REPUBLICAN and CHOSE to stay in it and try to reform it...
Hmmmmm
And again, I'm sorry if I made you feel antagonized or belittled. It was not my intent.
You're missing out on a great opportunity to support your candidate; you have an active thread. Please, I beg you to tell us with facts and a logic chain why we should support your candidate, John McCain.
How is that unprincipled??
He fights everyday for the constitution, he won't give an INCH!
Am I right?
You have mis quoted me... My commnts about educating peole was about the liberty movement not who Im voting for.
How many times do I have to say.. I am not trying t convert or convince anyone of who to vote for (In this election).
I am trying to get peopl here to help the movement not hurt it...
(voting for Mccain is not hurting this movement because one of them is going to win.).
Whatkind of ewvidence do you want to see to 'PROVE" my point. No one "KNOWS"
the future..
If you take that tack, then you'd have to consider both Obama and McCain equally unknowable in the future.
If I couldproduce something that "hypothetically" could convince you.. what would that be?
Fine... I pick mccain...
there done..
Well some would argue that he did try to get money for his district...
and I dont think my decision is unprincipled...
Ron Paul has to work within the parameters that exist in reality
It is not perfect.. but he has to work with it... you don't see him being a tax resistor even though he does not think the IRS is constitutional...
He is making a choice (compromise) for the greater good
How is voting for McCain educating people about the liberty movement?
I don't anyone is asking you try to convert people. I'm telling you that you have an opportunity to tell people here why it is logical to vote for McCain. It helps the movement to be able to flesh out specific alignment to the "liberty cause". Whether you convince or convert people is immaterial; but the whole forum is smarter for your contribution. Nobody has yet posted the McCain = C4L movement yet; you have an EXCELLENT opportunity to do that.
I think we're in agreement here. If you can establish that link between voting for McCain and the C4L, then we actually have a way to funnel the rest of the entrenched GOP over to the principles of the C4L. In essense, we will get more poeple here to help the movement, not hurt it...
I think McCain would be safer for USA than OBama, so if he wins, fine. (my friends/family win)
If Obama wins, allthe better. (crank up the heat)
TIME TO DROP ABOUT 300,000,000 FROGS INTO SOME BOILING WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was not my request. We want to know why you are convinced. We want to know the reasons. We want to know the facts you used and the logic chain you used to get to your conclusion. Nothing hypothetical about that.
This is a huge opportunity to get more McCain supporters like yourself on board the C4L.
My main issue in the suprem court
Mccain and obama put their views out there

Step away from the keyboard. Go outside. Never return.
I do believe that there is possibilities with Palin.. she seems real to me and most of the people that know her. She likes Ron Paul and feels somewhat aligned with him. I think that palin in office could begood for C4L
And to be quite frank, if RP had miraculously gotten the nomination, I would have hoped he'd pick Palin as his VP. I just wished the entrenched GOP didn't get to her first. She needs to stop talking about lipstick and other benign topics and start getting fully educated on economic and foreign policy.
And, I wish the VP had some substantive constitutional power aside from the tiebreaking vote in the Senate. Oh well, so it goes.
