My name is Moroni J. Holm and I am running for president.

Our country has been over-run by socialists in every sense of the word.
We have a Constitution that is torn and mangled and all the important founding principles in it are only hanging by a thin thread, all thanks to the God-hating few who have crept into our political ranks. We have only a few true-American freedom-loving patriots left in government. They seem to be the more religiously inclined of our leading class.
It stands to reason for me to see that when people in power begin to think that they are providential givers and distributors of the public's taxes, or by bullying banks and merchants through mandates to be overly fair to those irresponsible, they are changing the Constitution and it's purpose.
It also stands to reason for me that to legislate morality(which both parties do) they are also taking away personal choices(which is why, I was told, the devil was banished from heaven).
Too many laws. Too many regulations. Too many federal programs and projects. And too many half-wits pulling at our heartstrings.
Our federal budget is more than triple what it could be. I aim to change that.
Our debt is unsustainable without a responsible leader. Someone who will be willing and able to cut the fat.
I offer real free and true, to God, American change.
Not communistic change(Cuba and China).
Not Marxist change(USSR).
Not tyrannical change(Chavez).
Not a monarchy(England).
Not Theocracy(Rome or Iran)
Not Corporatism change(Obama).
Not National Socialism change(Nazi).
And no collective moralist change(New World Order).
We don't need the UN in our pockets. And we don't need the world to instruct us on good behavior. We need God in our hearts to make a righteous choice.

Attempted Terrorist Attacks

Starting the timeline at 9-11 is how the War on Terror is promoted. If we are to counter the misnomer that "the terrorists attacked us first" we need to start the historic timeline before 9-11.

This is what I say to moderates or conservatives in an attempt to counter that misnomer:

In the 2000 election one of the major presidential candidates criticized the foreign policy of the previous administration (Clinton's) by saying that "our soldiers shouldn't be used for what's called nation-building" and "policing the world" and "if we go around the world telling other people what to do, they will resent us".

That is exactly what the foreign policy of the 1990s (and earlier) was all about, and many people in other countries DID resent the US for "policing" their countries and "telling them what to do".

Saddam Hussein was encouraged and helped by US intelligence in his war with Iran from 1980-88. US (and Soviet) weapons helped Saddam stay in power by suppressing minorities in Iraq (Kurds and Shi'ites). Once he consolidated power, he invaded Kuwait after a US diplomat said that the US wouldn't object.

Instead of letting Arab countries remove Saddam, the US pushed the UN to sanction the Persian Gulf War (an undeclared war that left Saddam in power). This resulted in US military bases in Saudi Arabia (that remained long after the Gulf War was supposedly over), along with a lot of "telling other countries what to do", "policing" their Muslim holy sites and the "no-fly zones" over Iraq, and the occasional bombing of Baghdad in the 1990s.

Don't forget the intervention in Somalia to secure the UN's humanitarian mission in 1992, which was ramped into a "nation building" scheme in 1993. The 'Black Hawk down' incident turned the country against that blunder, and most of the troops came home, but then came the interventions in Bosnia and Kosovo for the rest of that decade. All of those were "policing the world" and "nation-building" schemes to help the "poor helpless Muslims join the 20th Century", as Clinton and the national press corps repeated ad infinitum.

But some of them didn't want "our help" and resented the arrogance of outsiders to "tell them what to do" and station our troops on their land, aiding corrupt dictators (Mubarak) and monarchs (Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait and the Saudis) and meddling in their internal affairs.

Some of them resented the US enough to attack the US government embassies in East Africa and the US military in the Middle East (Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia and USS Cole in Yemen). And then, around the time of the 2000 election, 19 of them were already in the US, working on their plan to fly planes into the WTC towers on 9-11.

The "resentment" had already boiled over into a few attacks on the US abroad. But even though that 2000 presidential candidate was not sincere about changing the policy (he responded by expanding it, instead) we now have a presidential candidate that not only makes the same statements, but has a proven record of voting for a "humble foreign policy" of "no nation-building" and "no policing the world".

------

People are tricked into thinking that someone saying something is the same as them doing it. They remember Bush saying those things in the 2000 elections, and they foolishly assume that "he tried it and it didn't work; 9-11 happened".

Sadly, you can't make people think, but you can keep trying to talk sense until you find people willing to listen and think. And keep trying different ways to explain things if people don't understand your first try. Resist the temptation to dig in your heels if people don't get it at first.

We (in the r3VOLution) have plenty of knowledge and information.

Unfortunately we have too little wisdom.

There is a huge difference between the two.
