Dems Fund Libertarian to Defeat McConnell

 

At Least Mitch is not a Marxist

• The so-called "Conservative" GOP is anything but Conservative when they fail to support internet free speech and spend trillions in phony printing press money. The one thing the GOP has going for it is the Marxist Democrats are even worse.

(Free Beacon)  A liberal PAC is spending more than $1 million to bolster Kentucky's Libertarian Party nominee in a last-ditch attempt to funnel votes away from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R.).

Ditch Mitch Fund, an anti-McConnell PAC founded by national liberal operatives, has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars from far-left donors to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), campaign-finance disclosures show. The money has helped the group spend more than $10 million on ads slamming McConnell and championing Democratic nominee Amy McGrath. But in the closing days of the campaign, Ditch Mitch Fund is instead spending big to sing the praises of Libertarian candidate Brad Barron.

The move is part of a larger liberal strategy to peel votes away from red-state Republicans by putting substantial funds behind little-known third-party candidates. One anti-McConnell super PAC—Fire Mitch Save America—has spent more than $250,000 on pro-Barron mailers in October. In South Carolina, Democratic Senate nominee Jaime Harrison, the state's Democratic Party, and an outside group aligned with Harrison have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on campaign materials that call Constitution Party candidate Bill Bledsoe "the only true conservative on the ballot."

Federal Election Commission filings show that Ditch Mitch Fund launched an affiliate PAC called True Kentucky Patriots on October 13. Just days later, the group pushed back on reports that it was pulling its TV ads in the race's final two weeks, instead saying it was "simply adjusting and moving around" the ad buys. True Kentucky Patriots went on to report more than $300,000 spent on TV, radio, and digital spots that call Barron "Kentucky's true conservative for U.S. Senate." According to ad-buying tracker Advertising Analytics, the total ad blitz is worth more than $1 million.

"Brad Barron is a farmer and businessman who will protect our liberties from Washington politicians," one True Kentucky Patriots TV ad states. "Sorry, Mitch, 36 years is too long. Vote your values and for freedom. Vote for conservative libertarian Brad Barron."

The ad campaign dwarfs Barron's own spending in the race. The third-party candidate has disbursed less than $17,000 as of June 30 and has failed to file the last two required FEC reports.

Obama: Oath of Allegiance Optional for Muslims

GOP Joins Democrats for Open Borders

• The GOP has controlled Congress almost exclusively since 1995.  The next time you get angry about immigration call your open borders whore Republican Congressman or Senator. They are totally responsible.

(BREITBART) — Former Congressman Tom Tancredo joined SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon on Breitbart News Sunday to discuss Tancredo’s latest column for Breitbart News, “Obama Invites 18.7 Million Immigrants to Avoid Oath of Allegiance, Pledge to Defend America.”

Tancredo explained that, in July of 2015, the US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS, sometimes shortened by Tancredo to USIS) “decided there was part of the Oath of Allegiance that has been taken by millions, and millions, and millions of immigrants into this country. It’s the last thing they have to do before actually getting their citizenship” that should be made optional. It was the part of the oath in which immigrants promised, “If called upon, I will indeed take up arms to defend the United States of America.”

“They have told immigrants now – the next 18 million that are in the pipeline – they do not have to take that part of the oath. It’s still in there, but they’ve said it’s optional; you don’t have to swear,” said Tancredo.

He noted this change was made without permission from Congress, for reasons USIS has yet to disclose. “Where the hell was Congress? Where is Congress?” Tancredo asked. “Where has Congress been, over and over and over again, in these kinds of issues? They just simply did it."

The Constitution Party hosts national convention in Salt Lake City

The Constitution Party picked their presidential candidate on Saturday.
Darrell Castle's name will be on the ballot in 16 states.

A Choice, Not An Echo

• The GOP under George W. Bush betrayed Conservatism causing me to vote Libertarian in two of the last three Presidential elections. But I have never voted for a Constitution Party candidate. So in the interests of equal time here is their convention.

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4 Utah)  –  There's a national convention going on in Salt Lake City right now, but chances are you know little about the political party running it.

Delegates from 28 states are gathering at the Downtown Hilton for The Constitution Party National Convention. They come with little fanfare to take care of party business and nominate candidates.As party leaders host the convention they admit their philosophy is relatively unknown.
 

"I agree, they have never probably heard of The Constitutional Party," said National Chair, Frank Fluckiger.

As political parties go it's a new comer. Fluckiger says it was established in 1992 with the goal of returning the country to the principles of the Constitution.

 

"The best government comes from the local level first, then what the local level can't handle, then it goes to the next level and on up. And that way if something is wrong it can be changed more readily," said Fluckiger.
 

The party is pro life, pro 2nd Amendment and against what it calls undeclared unconstitutional wars, such as Iraq and Afghanistan.

Darrell Castle is seeking the party's nomination for president, he says immigration is a big issue.
 

"Our borders are worth defending. If we can secure the borders of Korea and Germany, then we can secure the borders of the United States," said Castle.
 

He says the economy needs reform as well.
 

"I prefer ending the Federal Reserve and Central Bank control of the American economy."
 

On education he favors local control.
 

"The federal government shouldn't have any role in education."

It's a message that is silent on the national stage, but the party insists the current chaos is peaking interest.
 

"We're just amazed. We had our party caucuses in Utah, we had a record turnout," said Fluckiger.

The hallway outside the small ballroom of the convention had a United Nations flag taped to the ground so people could step on it. (More)

2012 Constitution Party nominee named to Trump team

Former Congressman Virgil Goode

Virgil Goode Endorses Trump

• As the 2012 nominee of the Constitution Party, Goode was on the ballot in 26 states and pulled a tiny 122,388 votes.  I am not sure anyone actually knew he was a candidate. Still, and endorsement is an endorsement.
• Goode was not on my California ballot. I cast my anti-GOP Establishment presidential protest vote for New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party. Johnson got 143,221 votes in California alone. More votes than Goode received in all of the 26 states where he appeared.

(Go Dan River.com) VIRGINIA  -  Former congressman and Constitution Party presidential candidate Virgil Goode will head Donald Trump’s 5th congressional district leadership team, according to a news release from the Trump presidential campaign Wednesday.

Goode served in Congress from 1997 to 2008 as a Democrat, Independent and Republican. In 2008, he lost his seat to Democrat Tom Perriello, who lost to Republican Rep. Robert Hurt in 2010. Hurt currently represents the 5th district.

“Contrary to the claims of the political consultant class, Mr. Trump is the only candidate who can defeat Hillary Clinton. Millions of Republican voters stayed home in 2008 and 2012 because they felt the GOP represented the interests of Wall Street rather than those of working Americans,” Goode said in the news release. “Donald Trump is the best candidate to connect with voters who feel disaffected from both parties.”

Goode could not be reached at the number posted for his Rocky Mount law office.

The 5th congressional district includes Campbell, Appomattox and Nelson counties and most of Bedford County.

Goode, whose 2012 presidential campaign slogan was “Citizenship Matters,” has long called for building a fence on the nation’s Southern border, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Trump has championed that idea throughout his campaign.

The release said other leadership team members include Republican Party of Virginia State Central Committee member Trent Maxey, Moneta-area businessman and political activist Jim McKelvey, and Lynchburg-area attorney Susan Oliver.

Ex Congressman Leaves the GOP

What Does a Conservative Do?

I feel the pain of former Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo.  The insane open borders, warmonger, big government loving whack-jobs of the GOP drove me out of the party in 2003.

Tancredo has chosen to become an independent and support Ted Cruz. In my case I am technically a registered Republican in California.  But I consider myself a Conservative RINO, an independent Constitutional Federalist if you will, who is backing The Donald.

The problem is even if The Donald won the open borders Wall Street Establishment would still own both parties in Congress.

Personally I would eagerly join a Conservative Party like they have in New York. I would like to see Conservatives target and win highly Republican legislative districts at the state level. Build a new party from the bottom up.

But there appears to be no interest at all from the voters. They keep voting for any Establishment fool as long as he has the magic "R" behind his name.

Below are some highlights from Tancredo's article in Breitbart.


Highlights
Tom Tancredo Speaks Out

"The proudly socialist Democrats are full of passionate intensity, while the Republican leadership is full of pathetic excuses. After this week’s House GOP “budget deal,” which betrays nearly every promise made to grassroots conservatives since 2010, I have decided it is time to end my affiliation with the Republican Party."

• As a Member of Congress for ten years (1998-2008), I was subjected to threats and pressures from the Congressional Leadership and President George W. Bush to support the creation of an expensive Medicare prescription drug program–even though creating a new government spending program financed by massive debt flies in the face of the Republican Party’s core principles.

• I was told by President Bush’s top political operative, Karl Rove, “never to darken the door of the White House again” because of my criticism of the administration’s dangerously lax immigration policies in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks.

• When I first arrived in the U.S. House of Representatives, I naively believed that it was primarily the Democrats who were committed to open borders. But I quickly learned the entire Republican establishment also supported a policy of immigration non-enforcement. I was repeatedly pulled into the office of the then-Majority Leader, Tom DeLay, and threatened with dire consequences if I continued to speak out publicly for common-sense immigration policies and true border security

2014 Elections  

Yet, despite these historic gains, nothing changed. The GOP neither advanced a conservative agenda nor checked the radical “transformative” agenda of Barack Obama. We got condescending lip service, and nothing more.

• Promises have been broken and principles abandoned, while millions of American families watched their dreams slip further and further out of reach.

• Republican congressional leaders maneuvered to deliver votes to fund President Obama’s unconstitutional amnesty order, and more recently, his unprecedented job-killing EPA rules.

• No one has been held accountable for the outrageous IRS and VA scandals.

Sadly, it has become obvious that the Republican establishment simply has no intention of ever fulfilling promises made in platforms and campaign speeches. To their mind, there are elections, and then there is “governing,” and governing to them means not messing with a gargantuan government on autopilot.

• The Republican establishment does not want to control spending.
• It does not want to secure the borders or enforce immigration laws.
• It does not care about American sovereignty.
• It has no interest in ending the unaccountable and corrupt culture that has become a hallmark of official Washington.

By insulting the grassroots, the GOP leadership has set upon a suicide mission.

The Boehner budget deal is the last straw, and enough is enough. I cannot any longer defend this transparently dishonest charade called the Republican Party.

What I will do instead is join the largest political group in the nation, unaffiliated Independents. In Colorado, they outnumber both “major” political parties.

The next day I will begin working my tail off for the next twelve months to organize Independents to help elect Senator Ted Cruz as President of the United States.

Leaving the GOP
Tancredo already left the pussy, open borders GOP in 2010. But nothing
changes. The Establishment Elites ride out any revolt and fully fund all
candidates for other offices. The rebellion fades and the Elites turn the
screws on any Republican stupid enough to have backed controlling
immigration and Conservatism.
.
The corrupt Elites have solved the "rebellion" problem in the People's
Republic of California where I live. They passed a law banning all
small opposition political parties and independents from all future general
election ballots. They have made sure that the Sheeple voters will
only have a choice of a Dem or a Republican.

Constitution Party Outpolls GOP in Partisan New Mexico County Sheriff Election

A Tiny Ray of Hope

• Very, very tiny.  I always celebrate when any small opposition political party shows any signs of progress.  I hope against hope that the United States might one day join the other democratic nations of the world and return to the free multi-party election system we used to have. 

(Ballot Access News)  -  On November 4, the only minor party candidate in the state of New Mexico for any partisan office was Michael E. Lunnon, the Constitution Party nominee for Sheriff of McKinley County.

Here is a link to the unofficial election returns from the Secretary of State’s web page. The results are: Democrat Ronald R. Silversmith 9,682; Constitution Party nominee Lunnon 2,163; Republican Clayton E. Garcia 2,146.

Lunnon was probably helped by the fact that New Mexico no longer has a straight-ticket device on the ballot.

McKinley County is in northwest New Mexico. The county seat is Gallup. The county is a stronghold for the Democratic Party.

New Mexico had fewer minor party nominees on the ballot in this month’s election than any other state. Also, during the entire period 2001-2014, New Mexico and North Dakota were tied for having the fewest independent and minor party candidates on the ballot. The November 1, 2014 printed Ballot Access News has a chart which shows this data for each state.

The Libertarian and Independent American Parties were and are on the ballot in New Mexico, but neither of them ran any nominees in 2014. This is mostly because New Mexico forces ballot-qualified minor parties to submit a petition of 1% of the last vote cast for all its nominees.

New Mexico is the only state that requires the nominees of any qualified party to submit a petition to appear on the November ballot. The policy lacks logic.

Former Congressman Virgil Goode
Ex-Congressman Goode of Virginia served as both a Democrat and a Republican.  In 2012 he was the nominee of the Constitution Party for President.

Choices on Your Ballot  -  In every other democratic nation on earth voters are given multiple real choices on their general election ballots, but not in the United States.  In 2012 American voters were given the "choice" between the author of Obamacare and the author of Romneycare.  Now that is choice for you.
.
The media and Presidential "debates" are controlled to make sure that un-approved political thought on both the Left and the Right is not allowed to present their message to the voters.  With no other apparent choices available to them, the Sheeple voters bleat baaa and cast their votes for the Washington D.C. funded oligarchy.

Oligarchy

[ol-i-gahr-kee]

Cliven Bundy leaves GOP, joins the Independent American Party

Good-Bye Republican Party

• Can you blame Bundy?  As the ultra-corrupt Harry Reid and his Communist Chinese loving bastard son were raping a rancher on live TV, you saw "small government" GOP hack politicians run for the hills and dig deep caves to hide in.
• If Republicans can't crawl out from under their rocks to defend property rights and freedom then just what the Hell are they good for?

With the Republican embrace of Cliven Bundy tepid to non-existent, the Nevada rancher has decided to switch his allegiances.

According to the Associated Press, Bundy officially left the Republican Party last Friday, when both he and his wife registered as voters with the conservative Independent American Party. The switch took place at an event held by his new political group, which was organized to honor “his courage in standing up for state sovereignty.”

Asked why he was changing parties, the Elko Daily quoted Bundy saying, “Well, I haven’t got much good out of the Democrats and Republicans so I decided to try a new one.”

Bundy has been involved in a growing dispute with the federal government over land rights. The Bureau of Land Management claims it’s been over 20 years since the rancher paid the fees associated with allowing his cattle to graze on public land, meaning he’s amassed an overdue bill of roughly $1 million.

Bundy, however, does not recognize federal authority over public land, and argues that he doesn’t owe the government anything for using what his family had operated on since the late 1800s.

Ohio GOP tries to rig the 2014 elections

The New Face of Fascism

The Ohio Republican Party adopts Fascism and tries to

keep smaller opposition parties off the ballot.

By Gary;

Neo-Fascist Bullshit like this from the GOP is the reason I now call myself an independent Constitutional Federalist instead of a Conservative Republican.

A corrupt Ohio Republican Party rammed through the GOP legislature the John Kasich Re-Election Protection Act which would disenfranchise every Ohio voter by taking away their right to vote for smaller opposition political parties on the November ballot.

See our original article:  GOP Fears Democracy May Break Out.

The newly passed GOP law comes as Ohio Republicans face growing competition from tea party supporters who say they may support a third-party challenger to Obamacare loving Republican Governor John Kasich. 

If you can't win on the issues then ban your opponents from the ballot.

The Courts Act to Protect Voters from the GOP

On January 7, U.S. District Court Judge Michael H. Watson ruled that due process requires that Ohio not implement its new ballot access barriers for minor parties for the 2014 election.


The Ohio GOP dropped
the elephant in favor
of the Fasces.

The 28-page opinion depends on the fact that the Ohio legislature did not pass the new requirements until November 2013, after various candidates of the minor parties had already been circulating petitions to place themselves on their own party’s primary ballot.

The case is Libertarian Party of Ohio v Husted, southern district, 2:13cv-953 reports Ballot Access News.

The decision also depends on the fact that the new law doesn’t take effect until February 2014. The Republican majority in the legislature wanted the new requirements to take effect immediately, but the bill would have needed 60% in each House of the legislature to take effect immediately, and because some Republican legislators voted against the bill, the bill did not pass with 60% in the State House.

The decision says, “The Ohio Legislature moved the proverbial goalpost in the midst of the game. Stripping the Plaintiffs of the opportunity to participate in the 2014 primary in these circumstances would be patently unfair.”

On January 10, Ohio filed a notice of appeal in Libertarian Party of Ohio v Husted. The state hopes the Sixth Circuit will reverse the U.S. District Court order of January 7, and remove the qualified minor parties reports Ballot Access News.

The only thing missing is a good old fashioned sieg heil right arm salute.



GOP Acts to Ban the Constitution Party
Every democratic nation on earth has all political parties and independent candidates on a single general election ballot so the voters have multiple real choices for their leaders.
.
But Ohio Republicans don't like the idea of free men and women having the right to vote for who they want.  So the GOP passed a law to rig the system and keep the Constitution, Libertarian and Green parties off the ballot. 

The GOP says:  "Keep those small parties off the ballot."

Does the GOP Believe in Anything?
Governor John Kasich and the entire Ohio Republican Party should get on their fucking knees and beg forgiveness from the voters for trying to rig elections in their favor.

Somehow I doubt that John Nicholas Hetrick (above) fought to create a country that prevented free elections.

The Republicans already banned opposition parties in California.  See for yourself what the GOP is now up to in Montana:  GOP looks to rig Montana's elections.

Colorado - Battleground State

Colorado the Swing State.
Colorado became a state weeks before the ultra close election of 1876.  Republican Rutherford B. Hayes won the election by a single electoral vote.  The new state of Colorado cast their three votes for Hayes.

People in Colorado Swing Both Ways

• So to speak.

By Gary;

Basically no poll has any real meaning until the first Presidential debate has been held.  For good or bad, years of campaigning comes down to the two candidates performing for the public on live TV like trained animals in some Roman Empire circus. 

In no way is this insane system what the Founding Fathers wanted for the selection of a President.

But getting to the point, Mitt Romney needs Colorado badly if he is to prevent four more years of Socialist rule from the White House, and I am not sure Colorado will go GOP.  The looter and moocher class will keep voting for free bread and circuses from the Democrats as long as someone else pays the bill.

Colorado will be a tough nut to crack:

• Romney has been behind in Colorado polls all of 2012.
• Comrade Obama carried Colorado with 53% in 2008.
• The state has a Democrat Governor and two Democrat Senators.
• The Democrats control the State Senate and the GOP won the lower house by only one seat.
• 4 of 7 Congressmen are Republicans.

In past elections there has been a late shift of voters creating GOP wins for President.  We will all know in a few weeks.  God help what is left of the Republic if Comrade Obama wins another term.



2010  -  A totally disorganized Republican Party.
In a hot Republican year, a screwed up GOP managed to get beaten by the Constitution Party in the race for governor.

Republican 'thankful that we survived' House election against Constitution Party

The voters are angry with the Republican Party protecting every possible Big Brother program and working with the Democrats to drive up our national debt.  This special election below in Alabama shows voter anger bubbling up.

put together a race against everything the state Republican Party has to throw at you,

and you still come out only 8 percent behind, I’d say you did alright,"
