For example, Boston Tea Party (2006), America First Party (2002), Light Party (early 1990s), Moderate Party (2006), New Party (1990s), and quite a few more. All information on these parties, and others, came from here: http://www.politics1.com/parties.htm 3) There are radical Parties. For example, American Nazi Party, Freedom Socialist Party/Radical Women, Socialist Party USA, among others. Information found at: http://www.politics1.com/parties.htm 4) There are Parties that are too far to the left or too far to the right. 5) There are Parties that have so outrageous Platforms that no one in their right mind would vote for them. For example, U.S. Marijuana Party, U.S. Pacifist Party, Pot Party, and others. Information found at: http://www.politics1.com/parties.htm These are the main reasons I believe Republicans and Democrats win the largest majority of the seats in all of the Local, State, and Federal elections, each time one comes around.

There are some key issues as to why he will not become Our next President. I have listed some main points from the Constitution Party's Platform and listed the reasons, I believe, why he won't win. 1) Roe v. Wade is an illegitimate usurpation of authority, contrary to the law of the nation's Charter and Constitution. My answer: There are a large number of women that believe in the Freedom to Choose whether they want to have an abortion or not. And, Roe v. Wade gave them that Freedom. So, he would loose a big majority of the women's vote, especially the younger women. 2) Our party leaders and public officials must display exemplary qualities of honesty, integrity, reliability, moral uprightness, fidelity, prudence, temperance, justice, fortitude, self-restraint, courage, kindness, and compassion. My answer: If there was an actual person that could fill all of these qualities, there's no way they would get elected. Because, the majority of people don't vote for honest people. That's why you see a lot of lawyers elected to office. 3) We seek to abolish Congressional pensions. ...

There was another candidate that did the same thing, Ron Paul. He ran as the Libertarian Party's candidate while remaining registered as a Republican, in 1988. He failed then in his bid for the White House, as he did this year. But, back to Bob Barr. He will not win the 2008 election because of the Platform he has endorsed. There are items in that Platform that are very unpopular in this Nation. The list of items are highlighted in bold, from the list of items. It’s platform is reflective of this. Besides the American heritage of liberty, enterprise, and personal responsibility, Libertarians believe: The reduction of constitutional safeguards should be eliminated Only actions that infringe on the rights of others can be called crimes Government should not define, license or regulate gender, gender identity, marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration or military service laws Abortion is a personal choice and not subject to government interference Free markets and property rights stimulate the technological innovations and behavioral changes required to protect our environment and ecosystems All government control of ...

And, it will never happen in the next thousand years, either. But, I thought it would be fun to see what answers everyone comes up with. I hope others will play along because I believe everyone will see the point I'm trying to make without having to go into a long dialog. So, here's the question: If no one casts a vote then who becomes the next President? My answer:  There couldn't be one elected, as far as I know. The White House would sit dormant. Even though, it would be a virtual tie among all of the candidates, the Speaker of the House would not be able to choose a candidate. Mainly, because, the Constitution states that there have to be ballots cast in each State. And, if no one casts a vote, the Constitution doesn't spell out what must be done. Because, there are no contingencies for no votes cast. So, America would be better off if we could keep everyone from voting instead of putting any currently running candidate in office, even the ones that aren't Republican or Democrat.

There is no way I could have expressed my views as easy as they have. Therefore, I praise The New Yorker magazine for composing a wonderful piece of Artwork. I am planning on buying a copy of the magazine so I can relish in their great accomplishment in exposing the real, Barack Hussein Obama. And, when the MSM continues to tell people that it's just satire, don't believe them because it's reality at it's finest. *credit* - picture acquired from The New Yorker online at: http://www.newyorker.com/ and the actual address of the picture is: http://www.newyorker.com/images/2008/07/21/p154/080721_2008_p154.jpg   Mon, 14 Jul 2008 12:34:31 GMT Creampuff http://www.firesociety.com/forum/thread/27549/The-New-Yorker-magazine--Satire-or-Reality/?src=103 http://www.firesociety.com/forum/thread/27409/The-Only-HOPE-For-America./?src=103 I see the only way America can survive a total disaster from within is to do as my new profile picture says: NO OBAMA, NO MCCAIN, NO MEXI-MERICA. Unfortunately, there are too many Americans whom are blind to what they will be really getting when they decide to elect McCain or Obama. And, my guess is: It will be Obama that they choose. But why are they acting like they are so ignorant to realize that both candidates are only saying what they want to hear? Everyone complains about it each election year. But, they continue to vote the same way as the last, with utter disregard for wanting a truthful and honest candidate. Maybe, people just want to hear that everything is going to be okay instead of actually wanting it to happen. It's like when a person finds out that they won the lottery. They're all happy, jumping for joy, and ready to faint. But, when they get the money, they go spend it right away without having all of the hooplah associated with it. Maybe, that's what is happening here. People are more interested in having that immediate release instead of wanting to wait for it. Personally ...

Tom Harkin, arguing that energizing the party's base is the only way to oust a Democrat who is seeking his fifth term in the Senate. The candidates in the June 3 primary are: --George Eichhorn, a lawyer from Stratford and former legislator. --Steve Rathje, a Cedar Rapids resident who runs a manufacturing supplies business. --Christopher Reed, a Marion resident who operates a telephone answering business. Only Eichhorn has held elective office, and he lost his legislative seat in the last election. "I am running to change Washington, not become changed by Washington like Harkin," Eichhorn said. "I have a proven, consistent record of common sense conservatism." The three are sounding sharply conservative themes, hoping to ...

Postville immigration raid: Picking up the pieces Roundup leaves small northeast Iowa town reeling By Jens Manuel Krogstad and Dennis Magee, Lee Enterprises POSTVILLE -- Monday's federal immigration raid damaged Postville's schools, businesses, neighborhoods and the fragile relationships forged between the city's diverse cultures, upset residents say. Community members say they don't understand what the biggest immigration raid on a single site in U.S. history accomplished, if anything. ''Drive around Iowa and there's a lot of dead towns,'' businessman Gabay Menahn said. ''Here it's the same thing, but we've got a heart beating - it's called Agriprocessors. When you take away the heart, the body dies.'' Federal agents arrested 390 workers at Agriprocessors, the nation's largest kosher meat processing plant. Many in town dealing with the aftermath said the raid took away fathers and mothers who only wanted to be left alone to support their families and replaced relative harmony in the community with fear and suspicion: Rumors floated through town about unmarked Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicles on patrol and about car chases and shootings in the wake of the raid. Volunteers at St. Bridget Catholic Church, where many from the Hispanic community are staying, said many people ...

She asked people to bet a little something on the Filly, Eight Belles. Maybe, she was predicting what was going to happen with her campaign, have to be put down. That's what happened to Eight Belles, she had to be euthenized on the track. I suppose it will be up to the Superdelegates to put her campaign to rest. And, we can only hope that happens soon.

Does Hispanic growth equal influence? 1:00 AM WASHINGTON (AP) -- The number of Hispanics in the United States rose by 1.4 million over a years's time to 45.5 million as of last July, continuing rapid growth that could increase their influence. This election year has focused more attention on how much it is increasing. The top 10 states that saw the growth rates in their populations were in the Southeast, according to new census data released Thursday. South Carolina topped the list with an 8.7 percent increase, gaining 13,569 Hispanics, according to an analysis of the Census data by William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution. The state's total Hispanic population was 168,920 last July 1, a 76 percent increase from July 2000. Other Southeastern states that saw increases are Tennessee, with 8.1 percent growth; North Carolina, 7.8 percent; Georgia, 7.1 percent; Alabama, Mississippi and Kentucky, 7 percent; Arkansas, 6.8; Louisiana, 6.5 percent. Florida had a 3.6 percent gain, which ranked 37th among states. For the second consecutive year, Texas accounted for more of the gains in the numbers of Hispanics than California. Texas' share was about 21.2 percent of the additional Hispanics in 2007, while California's ...
