Dont stand down, I think your on the right track with this, though you must also then accept that also no where in the consitution does it say you can print money, sacrafice liberty for security or invade other countries etc
Ron Pauls your man when it comes to following the constitution, While I'm not a fellow American, I got to say that Ron paul makes more sense to me than just about any politican i can think of in my life time. in fact Im kinda jealous that we dont have a Ron Paul type guy in the UK.
I dont agree with RP on absolutley everything, (no one person is ever 100% right on everything) but Imho he seems to be a step in the right direction for America at this point in time (and possibly for most of the western world too)
Whats the alternative, Romney or Obama? or 'Robama' as they are refered to now - since they are one in the same. A pair of pro big government flip-floppers sponsored by Goldman $achs who are both more than happy to trample the constitution into the mud
. You can pretty much tell what you will get from a president or leader, going by their track record rather than what they will tell you. Obama is a bad president, but Mitt Romney is Joke too, does this clown actually have an opinion on anything?
I used to consider my self center-left, but if RP represents true conserveratism, you can consider me converted. Honestely though, isn't all this Left vs Right wing politics in western democracy is pretty much dead?
Isn't it just a puppet show they continue to play out for all the little people like us, so that we naively believe we actually have some democratic power over government? when in fact we pretty much have our two party dictatorships that have largely sold them selves out to the highest bidder. Mega Banks/Oil companies/Arms manufacturers etc.
Whoever is in power, it never really changes does it? Our governments continue to expand, chip away at our civil liberties (by fear mongering) and gradually gain more and more control over all different aspects of our lives.
Its not that governments and mega co-orperations are all pure evil, its simply a problem of greed and corruption... That unfortunatley is just the way alot of us human beings roll..
But anyway its pretty obvious that the game is rigged.
Also a great quote I heard recently:
"Congressmen should wear NASCAR uniforms so we can see who their sponsors are"
