LOVE that remark! Overall this guy want's it both ways. On one hand he is saying republicans cannot afford to only want people who think alike.. However, he doesn't want ron paul in the republican party because he doesn't think like himself.. HYPOCRITE! “just because you have a gun doesn’t make you a conservative!”

Each one consists of different webs of upper class cliques... GOP: Bush family, some WASP old money (<ex-backbone of GOP), Big Oil, Rupert Murdoch, few remaining industrial capitalists, some financial capitalists, ultra-Zionist & neocon cliques, ex- and current military high brass, Rockefellers (traditionally) DEM: financial capitalists, media capitalists, insurance companies, Jewish new money (incl. Soros), Kennedys, privileged and affirmative actioned Black Elite, Brzezinski-aligned military/intell clique Where does the "lower class" fit into this? Labour unions didn't even make up 2% of the Democrats' funding last election cycle. The middle and working classes must fight together for a conservative populism!

The status quo of the Republican party has lost credibility not doing what it said it would, has earned it's losing minority representation. What's wrong with a balanced budget? What's wrong with freedom and personal liberty? Neither Graham nor Paul would like to see the Democratic party continue on it's path, it's ever expanding role of government involvement and regulation, and unprecedented growth of the national deficit. Ron Paul is popular right now, things he has consistently been fighting for and supporting are today getting much grass roots support. Look up videos of him decades ago and he was consistently fighting for the same principles. I don't understand why Graham would want to start a fight with Ron Paul. A growing number of young people are concerned with the huge national deficit that we will have to face in our lifetimes, and of the expanding role of government into our own personal liberties, excessive regulation and redistribution of wealth.

Don't trust either party. One is for the upper-class. One is for the lower-class. We need a Conservative Middle-class Party. We're the ones supporting this country. Question to ask ourselves: Why are the rich and powerful in congress supporting this move toward socialism? It won't help the middle-class majority who are willing to work for a living. It only helps the lower-class and those already in power, and rich enough to stay there. Those in power become more powerful while the rest of us fall into servitude.

According to The Frozen Republic, by Daniel Lazare, The United States Constitution was based on the 16th century, unwritten British constitution, which consisted of two houses of Parliament and a monarch, plus innumerable local sovereign officials. The result was paralysis and stagnation. Only bribery kept the system from grinding to a halt. Hence, the expresssion, grease. Why make a fetish out of our 18th century constitution?

There's no need for two unpatriotic, globalist, left-leaning parties. Once the GOP begins again to take care of America and Americans first, something neither party now does, they'll again start winning elections.

I am trying to decide whether to register R or I this fall. Should I help the R's come back to their conservatism by being able to vote in primaries? Should I hold out & choose between who is offered based on what the represent? Lindsey Graham is NOT what I would vote for if GOP. I already have donated $800 to various campaigns for people to unseat Specter in PA, FOR Rubio in FL, and refused a request from RNCC to donate to Scarafava or whatever her name is in NY, NOT conservative. I sent AARP a letter WD from membership due to their support of HC reforms that are too invasive! RNC & McCain got a similar letters saying I will not donate to "country club, get along" RHINOs! Follow the lead. I have never before been active but the writing is on the wall now & it is ugly! We either get back to our constitution or we go the way of Europe with sharia law being incorporated into ours, huge welfare programs but no money for military support (just community groups!) and concern for the UN's decisions & rules. NOT AMERICA! We won't stand for it! I wish I'd retired from school principalship earlier to get an idea of how bad things were!
