Time for Gary Johnson to seize the moment

With Cruz dropping out tonight, there are no main party candidates left who behave in accordance with the Constitution. If there is ever a time for someone else to rise up, now is the time. I doubt it will be seized, however.

The GOP RINOs would not allow my county's elected GOP chairman, a Tea Partier, participate at the Florida GOP convention a few years ago. The Florida GOP RINOs also were largely responsible for John McCain getting nominated in 2008. The GOP establishment is now getting its just desserts.

GOP - Rest in Pieces

    While I like the title here, and also like Gary Johnson, let's face it, folks. Our Libertarian Party has always been shunted aside.
    I'll not join into the eternal discussion about that; just to say that the Dem-Rep monopoly has managed to bend or break the rules such that it's become impossible for any "3rd party" to gain and keep a foothold.
    Having watched 98% of the voters last round vote for socialist tyranny (either Obama or the ABO Romney crowd) while Johnson got just 1%.
    These days, we watch the money go to the D-R monopoly, not the the LP nor to any other "party".
    America has a problem which Voting can never cure. I await the Great Global Collapse ahead, but fear that the majority fools will merely set out to replace this GOVERNment with another to fail yet again. If that's correct, the human species will probably then blow it's last chance to avoid self-extinction.

    "GOP - Rest in Pieces" I like that! The one thing that I worry about big time is, if either The Hildebeast, Crazy Bernie, or Uncle Joe wins the White House, he or she will be appointing at least one person to the Supreme Court.

    "The wrong founders" !!!
    The USA being founded twice is an extremely interesting concept.

    I can tell you this much, I won't vote for Trump or Hillary.

    My prediction: barring an outright indictment of Hillary Clinton, Trump's going to get beat in the Electoral college by 200 votes. He'll lose every key swing state including Ohio, Florida and Nevada. This will be the most lop-sided Presidential race since Reagan and Carter. And you'll also see the lowest voter participation rate in 40 years: there aren't two less disliked people in politics than Clinton and Trump.

    Trump's going to get killed in the debates. He never debated well in the Primaries and his refusal to go one-on-one with Cruz was a mark not only of his pettiness, but his lack of any real policy position. He's not going to have anything to fall back on and the moderators are going to crucify him. And his lack of any real policies separating him from Hillary Clinton is going to result in the same thing we saw with McCain and Romney: losses.

    Bad news lies ahead for America, I fear.

    And the creepy propaganda machine blames the founders. Unfortunately they blame the wrong founders. It's the Hamilton followers and their corporastatist swarm that have stealthily stolen the power that Jefferson and Franklin won for the people.

    Indeed, we have not kept the republic that Ben Franklin and the other founders gave us.

    A close friend was fond of saying: "America will get what she deserves." I guess the people are no longer virtuous enough to deserve freedom as it was intended by our forefathers...I will not bend over...
