Which of them do you honestly think will roll back the imperial presidency...
Which one will cut back on the use of executive signing statments...
Which one would scale back the tap tap tapping of our domestic phone calls and internet use...
Which one of these candidates would restore habeas corpus
And which one would stop the torture...
In other words, which candidate do you firmly believe will make us proud to be Americans again, not the Lee Greenwood proud but the kind of proud based on our freedoms that are guaranteed by our constitiution...
I'd like to think that all of them would, democrat and republican alike...
But I have my doubts...
I have my misgivings...
Because it not only depends on the character of the candidate but also depends upon how that candidate chooses to wield power and how that candidate chooses those who would serve the president and, more importantly, the people of the United State...
And not just democrats or republicans, but someone who would do what was right for the country for a change instead of operating this country of ours like some kind of crazy bizarre where the goods go to the highest bidder and there truly is no tomorrow...
So before you vote in the primary, before any of us vote in the primary, we should really look long and hard not just at the candidate but to listen to what they really say and pay attention to who is funding your candidate and who your candidate is surrounded by...
Well, now it's time for Turkey...
I hope and pray that this time next year I will once again be proud to be an American...
Peace...
