Election 2008

Monday, September 1st, 2008

Well while I’m at it, I’ll post some political thoughts.

My last post linked to Ron Paul’s Exploratory site. That site turned into www.RonPaul2008.com which has since turned into www.CampaignForLiberty.org . The Campaign For Liberty is holding the Rally for the Republic this week. Too bad the Republicans aren’t allowing Paul to speak at the Covention, but they invited Rudy Giuliani and Joe Lieberman who isn’t even a Republican speak. They deserve to lose, but so do the Democrats. I think Sarah Palin is a good Vice Presidential pick for John McCain. Palin, with some federal level experience, would make a better President than McCain or Obama.

At this point, I am suggesting you vote for either Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party, or Bob Barr of the Libertarian Party. Even Cynthia McKinney of the Green Party or Ralph Nader would be improvements over the choices given to us by the Republicrats. For the record, I will be a Presidential Elector is Congressional District 1 of Louisiana for Chuck Baldwin and Darrel Castle. I don’t know if Alan Keyes’ California supporters are acting on their own or on his behalf, but they have shown they have no integrity and if he supported their actions he also has shown he has no integrity.

There are a number of good candidates running through out the country. B.J. Lawson, House in North Carolina; Bob Bird, Senate in Alaska; Peter Vidrin, House in Louisiana; Bob Conley, Senate in South Carolina; and Darryl W. Perry, (write-in) Senate in Alabama. Most (perhaps all) of these people have an up hill battle, but would be better than the people they would be replacing.

(I don’t think I’ll be posting again for a while. Be glad I posted this.)
