Thomas Jefferson....a second revolution Seems to me our problems began with an election just a century and change ago. The seeds were sown by pseudo-intellectuals offering deficient, yet plausible analysis. After the 1921 troubles, America had a temporary revival. That fell apart under a brilliant, yet misguided Republican President and a Fed that intervened where it shouldn't have. Worse followed. Since, we're increasingly indoctrinated by minions with a personal financial interest and naive faith in expanding government. The barest minority have any understanding of history or the "conservative" analysis thereof. This is a pussified nation. Those whose who would restore a Constitutional Republic with a Tommy J solution face odds as bad as the Warsaw Jews in 1943. Any suitable candidate would NOT finance his campaign with bids in the advance auction for stolen goods. Tough odds. Coalescing around die-hard supporters of a failed candidate, who most even here consider a crank, are a core of true believers. Maybe they, or some similar group, can goose your Starfish/Spider action to effect. Again, tough odds.
