Finally, an Honest Politician . . .

And he is not a Democrat or a Republican. He is the Socialist Party candidate for president. I saw him interviewed by John Stossel the other night. He wants a $15 per hour minimum wage, free education from pre-K to Ph.D., national health care, etc. A socialist idiot, but an honest man who tells you up front exactly what he believes. This is especially unlike Republicans like drug warrior, warmonger, and police statist Mitch McConnell who complain about the Democrats when they are not a dime's worth of difference from them.

There is no such thing as a honest politician.  Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul.  The politician does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions.  His virtures are not real to him.  His sins, if there are such thing as sins, are borrowed.  He becomes an echo of someone else's music... an actor of a part that has not been written for him.

When politicians say they do not care what others think of them, (Obuma, Ron Paul) for the most part they deceive themselves.  Generally they mean only that they will do as they choose, in the confidence that no one will know their vagaries; and at the utmost only that they are willing to act contrary to the opinion of the majorities because they are supported by the approval of their cronies.  It's not difficult to be unconventional in the eyes of the world when your unconventionality is but the convention of your set.

Personally, I consider Pell Grants to be a great investment in our country's future.   Very interesting posts It's nice to see another side.

Diane, you'd consdier any socialist program like Pell Grants to be a good investment in our country's future.

Our freedom and liberty is being compromised for socialism by people who believe like you do.

Red..ya don't even stop grousing long enough to appreciate what you have.
  Call me names if you must. I really feel sorry for you.

I really feel sorry for you.

Who was it that sang that song.... "Feelings, nothing more than feelings...."

I think Diane would really appreciate it if I was a socialist.  Sorry Diane, I'm not
joining your kind of thinking.  Many of our forefathers left Europe to escape the
sociialist doctrine yet you see no reason to keep this country as right as we can.

redcliffsw, when it comes to the founding fathers you usually have a pretty good handle. You seem to be distorting history in your statement.  A quick review of our founding fathers or framers birthplaces show that they were born in what we now call the United States of America, not Europe. (Britain, Ireland, West Indies, other places under crown rule) Also, the socialist movement in Great Britain came in the 19th century. So in conclusion they did not leave Europe to escape the socialist doctrine.

There were immigrants and still are.

Some immigrants were socialists.  Many German socialist immigrants joined
Lincoln's union army for the War of Northern Aggression.  No doubt that they
wanted to change the USA and they did.  Things were different in the north
and in the South after the northern victory.

It should make no sense to any of us to look to the Fed's for programs and money.

We're not immigrants so let's stand for our liberty and look to the founding fathers and the Constitution.
