Politics

I hate politics. I've been involved in politics since about 1964, when under the tutelage of the late Jimmie Thommason, I helped get a judge elected in a small town in California.  Outside of Jesus Christ, and of course, my wife, it has been one of the consuming passions of my life.

Is it me? or are the politicians getting stupider and stupider?  All I can see are closed minded, selfish idiots, whose only thought is destroying the country in the name of their political party.

If you confront them with the facts, they will shout you down, or deride you. The truth, and the true facts have no place in their lives. Only "The Party."

First of all, look what a one party system did to Russia, and China, and Argentina, and Germany, and Spain, Italy.  Now, some of those parties were right wing, some of them left wing, but all of them turned out to be dictatorships. The people of the nations suffered, and in some cases, still suffer.

This is not about a single political party system, or a multi party system, It's about a NO PARTY system.

If you read the Constitution of The United States of America, you will find no mention of, or reference to, political parties. Yet, political parties are controlling our nation. And it's unconstitutional!

Think about it. Do political parties have anything to do with "We The People"? The answer is a resounding NO! Yet political parties have perverted our laws so that in most states one is not allowed to vote if he is not registered in one of them. Or, if he belongs to one of the parties in which there is no candidate running, he is not allowed to vote.

I firmly believe this is wrong, and un-American. Is there anything I can do about it?  Well, for one thing, I have posted this for all the world to see.

I am no longer a member of any political party. I am not a Republican, I am not a Democrat, I am not a Libertarian. I am a "Free Independent American" with no party affiliation. 

Political parties have largely brought the USA to the low point that it is today, and I for one, hate it, and them.

God says I have to love people, but He never said that I can't hate bad ideas.  I can't kill people over those ideas with which I disagree, but I can still say so in this yet free America.

If those stupid people who are marching in lock step, blinded by their political party leaders, would first, read  the Constitution of The United States of America, then reread it, and reread it, and reread it, and study it, and take it for exactly what it is; the framework for government Of, For, and By, We-The-People, we might begin to have a better informed electorate.  Of course a well informed electorate is a dangerous thing to political parties.  Isn't it?
