PROLIFE--I'm sick of you spouting out the same crap. Get this through your thick skull--and I say this only 'cause we've crossed this bridge several times in the past: I DO NOT TOW A DNC PARTY LINE!
I'm completely independent, my thoughts are my own and not someone else's. I don't parrot a party line. I think the two party system does more harm than good, and the evidence to this is the clear and blatant fact that so few people vote.
That I would prefer a Democrat over a Republican is obvious, and with good reason--look at what Republicans stand for: profits over people. I'm for people. But this doesn't mean I "tow" a party line.
Heck, I disliked Clinton way back when he formed and became president of the Southern Democratic Leadership Conference (is that the correct name--I forget?), the group that put Super Tuesday together. I didn't need a weak and red herring-like excuse you folks did in order not to like Clinton as a politician. And my dislike for him predated your bum trip. Got it?
Libertarians are cool except virtually every Libertarian I've ever met usally has an issue or few that they really can't be all that Libertarian on, whether it's health care, the environment or taxes, etc.
Of the third party candidates of recent decades--candidates who never stood a chance of winning in America--I'd say Nader and Andersen were the most interesting.
Regarding the hardlinism of Socialist Workers Party, Communist Party, etc., I think they've got some pretty good ideas but many of them are unworkable and don't quite fit where people are really at.
I pretty much fall into a position where I say right on to the hula-hoop, the pet rock and the entreprenurial spirit of people; however, I damn the bastards who took the tin, who took the copper, the silver, the gold, the diamonds, the timber, the rubber, the oil, etc. from third world nations leaving the people who live in those nations under the lousy spell of dictators who made the deals with the respective corporations.
In my life I ran twice and won as a Democrat, ran once and lost as a Republican and am the receipient of the Libertarian Party Friend of Freedom Award. In fact, I'm one of the very few candidates I voted for who actually won--lol! Most of the people I vote for lose.
Now, after reading all of this will you do me a favor? Please don't ever lead off one of your posts to me like you did the last one. This said, let me read the rest of what you wrote, as I only read the first line which prompted this reponse. |
