I know it is none of my business, but…

So you believe an actor, Mr Washington and disbelieve Trump who has actually run the United States of America… didn’t receive a paycheck for it. I mean, you are unreal… You sound like a typical liberal

I never claimed you called me a name. You called the Democrats names. This does not persuade me to vote for your candidate.

Again, I am not a supporter of Kamala Harris, nor the Democrats. I know both Trump supporters and Kamala Harris supporters (if she will even be their nominee after the DNC Convention) claim that my vote does not count for the individuals I do support, but is a vote for their enemy (which is either voter suppression or voter fraud, as my vote counts for three people, my guy, their guy, and your guy ; ) But, in reality, my vote is a vote for NOTA (none of the above).

I am casting my vote for a Pro-Life Candidate. Dr. Ron Paul actually spent his life prior to politics delivering babies.

Do you believe that President is “the chosen one”? If two sports fans are Praying for their team to win the World Championships, is God not also on the side of the teams that didn’t make it to the Championships? Or is God only on your side and the side of the opposing Championship team.

Did you know that the Republican Party was once a third Party? And that they teamed up with other Parties that opposed slavery.

Going back to the topic of Pro-Life candidates, Randall Terry (the Constitution Party Presidential Candidate) actually adopted a baby of a woman who was about to enter until she saw him standing there as a witness to her! He is probably the most Pro-Life candidate who may be on your ballot. Instead of J.D. Vance, maybe Trump should have offered the VP slot to Terry. Just like the Democrats should offer the VP pick to RFK Jr. Politically speaking, this would be strategy for either Party.

I’ll take one at a time. Do you not think that the Left-wing media reports the news in such a way to sway their viewers politically? Do you believe that the Right-wing media reports the news in a way not to sway you?

This is a poll (or a statistic), not a fact. I have been in many polls where the pollsters do not ask the right questions. Like you, I like a good conspiracy theory and there are more theories than just these two. It does not mean that I believe them, but my point is that if asked about one vs. what the media says is fact, does not mean that one or the other is true just because a majority polled believes it, nor does it mean either is true or that both can’t be true.

Hate to break it to you, but both Democrats & Republicans caused this inflation. It was not just the Democrats who spent beyond their means by $35 Trillion! President Trump signed every massive spending bill that crossed his desk. And Democrats AND Republicans in Congress created the spending that these past & present Presidents signed off on. Prior to the creation of the Federal Reserve none of this was possible.

I will recommend you read a couple of these books:

  1. “Basic Economics” by the great Thomas Sowell
  2. “What has Government done to our Money” by Murray Rothbard
  3. “Economic Policy” by Rothbard
  4. “End the Fed” by Dr. Ron Paul
  5. “How Inflation Destroys Civilization” by Hülsmann

This is fake news. I believe in objective truth. The fact is that I act like propaganda does exist (all you have to do is look at the response to Covid to know that this is true). Just because your news says it is “fair & balanced” or “the most trusted name in news” does not mean that it is.

And if you get your news from an independent source, often these individuals are getting their information from the mainstream and not doing actual investigating. Most independent news outlets do not have the big funding to actually investigate. And by the time any news organization does investigate, it is old news.

I am not your enemy. I do not want to tell you whom you must vote for. Nor do I want to use government force to make you believe as I believe (even though you and I probably agree on most things when it comes to faith & morality).

Feel free to ask me what I really believe and I am happy to share. You do not have to assume what it is I believe.

Christ’s peace be with you!

Yes.

No : )

I did not intend for this topic to become so political. It was more for fun.

But, to make my point about how voting for bad politicians, just because they have an “R” or a “D” by their name, is part of the problem.

This is our Ohio, “Republican” Governor who locked us in our homes for 2 years, made us cover our mouths, shut down our Churches, pushed the inadequately-tested messenger RNA, is not 2A, and is only pro-life when he wants your vote.

Many Democrats think he’s great, most Republicans voted for him (something about “lesser of two evils”).

The only way to hold elected politicians accountable is for them to lose.

At least in Virginia I wasn’t locked into my home. I was free to go to work till that became remote, go shopping, go to the doctor, even go to the park. Those of us who prayed weekly near an abortion clinic never stopped going. And even though regular church services were suspended, my bride and I had a church wedding in July 2020.

That is Awesome! Your Governor did the right thing in my opinion.

Being a Minnesota native, I apologize for Tim Walz. He has been a disaster for our state, and I don’t wish him on the rest of the country…although that would get him out of our hair!

Well, to that extent, yes, but when indoor public gatherings such as church services were suspended, liquor stores and abortion clinics stayed open as nesessites.>:(

Always despised DeWine, but seeing this post makes my eyes want to bleed.

You make zero sense. Voting for Ron Paul is not going to do a thing. He isn’t even running. You are illogical. You act like we have more than 2 candidates or choices…

yeh, Walz is great! He had a hot line for people (during covid) to report their neighbors or “friends” who didn’t mask up. Hiel!

He watched Minneapolis burn and did nothing.

He lied about what rank he was in the army.

TRUMP 2024!

Thank you for showing me the error of my ways, that voting for Ron Paul (a #NOTA vote) is a waste. You have convinced me to vote for Kamala who will “do more” than even voting for Trump will ; )

I do not want politicians to “do more.” I want politicians to do less.

Summary

If a vote is valued by how likely one is to win, then why have elections at all. Just give it to the one who is most likely to win. And I disagree with you that there will only be two options on your ballot in November. Care to put money on it?

I know you don’t mean literally two options. But, what you are not understand is that I do not vote for the “lesser of two evils.” I am a minarchist. I believe government hast three purposes: to protect life, liberty, and private property (in this order). Anything more than this is over-reach and not to mention authoritarian. And I’m not really voting for Kamala : )
