Its time to start a third party, but elect a 2008 third party President? be realistic!

I am all for a Constitutional party but I am also a realist. Anyone who thinks that a third party candidate can be elected as President in the United States in 2008 is not playing with a full deck.

I doubt if the Constitutional party could even be on half of the state ballets by election time so how in the world can that party elect a president? Even if it could, what good would be a President that did not have the support from the political parties controlling the House and Senate?

2008 might be a good year to get a third party off the ground with eyes for 2012. It would at least take that long to dismantle the many roadblocks that the other two parties have put up to stop any third party movement.

In addition, the list of candidates that the Constitutional party suggests running for President is moronic. Keyes, Duncan etc are not going to ever break out of the single digits and Judge Roy Moore has about as much chance as that talking bean dog on TV. Chuck Baldwin for President? Please get real? He probably would not even carry his own county.

No. the Constitutional party must get someone of truly national significance to run. Someone that is a Christian military hero or someone like James Dobson himself. In order to get media time he also would have to be backed by a multi billionaire with unlimited pockets and he must be backed by the vast majority of the thousands of voices across the country that cannot endure the choices of the two major parties.

I sincerely doubt that anyone can achieve this combination before a great depression or a world war. Yet, lay the grass roots support this year, or it won’t ever get done.

Let’s face it, if the Republicans were going to support Christian values they would have did it while they had control of government. And we know the Democrats are never going to attempt to support any biblical Christian values or constitutional government. So if Christians and Consititutionalists want a future voice in this nation they had better start their own political party.

Nevertheless, when we do start a viable third party let us use our brains and be realistic because hype produces disappoint and disappoint kills third party movements before they even get off the ground.

Voting ‘no’ on Hillary, Obama and McCain

“Voting for the lesser of two evils will still yield evil. The major parties offer a choice between driving our country over the cliff to ruin at 50 miles per hour or 70 miles per hour. For example, Republican Supreme Court appointees gave the country Roe v. Wade and other liberal rulings. … If the fear of voting third party is maintained, there will never be hope for change …”The United States of America was not founded upon compromise and rationalism. If was founded upon the belief that people are accountable to God for the principles that they stand for,” the Constitutional Party says.

Gary Odom, the national field director for the party, told WND the party’s convention in Kansas City will determine the candidate.

“Anybody with a sense of reality can tell we have a ways to go, [but] we are making progress,” he said.

He said the time is ripe in 2008
