At this late date who do you suggest we vote for?
"It is precisely the fact that the market does not respect vested interests that makes the people concerned ask for government interference" ~ Ludwig von Mises
The problem with the state--which is organized power that claims and violently enforces a monopoly on the use of coercive force and the provision of governmental services--is the same problem that arises with _any_ hierarchically-organized power structure. And it's the same problem that arises when any person or group has a monopoly. And it's the same problem that arises when any human attains power.
We have met the enemy, and he is us--human beings. You cannot solve the problem of wrongful use of power by creating hierarchical power structures that concentrate power at the top of the hierarchy. But such concentration of power is mathematically inevitable as the result of the hierarchical power relationships that must be established in order to organize the command and control mechanisms necessary to convert any group into an effective army or state.
And when you do establish such a power hierarchy, and then go on to make the additional mistake of ceding it monopoly power on the making, enforcing and judging of law, you create a single point of failure, and a high-value target of corruption. And those mistakes in combination can have no other result but to cede power to the rich and powerful, who will always wind up in control.
“...the most improper job of any man, even saints (who at any rate were at least unwilling to take it on), is bossing other men. Not one in a million is fit for it, and least of all those who seek the opportunity.” ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." ~ H. L. Mencken
"Democracy? I want nothing to do with a system which operates on the premise that my rights don't exist simply because I am outnumbered." ~ R. Lee Wrights
"A man is no less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years." ~ Lysander Spooner
“Since outright slavery has been discredited, 'democracy' is the only remaining rationale for state compulsion that most people will accept. Democracy has proved only that the best way to gain power over people is to assure the people that they are ruling themselves. Once they believe that, they make wonderfully submissive slaves.” ~ Joseph Sobran
The nation that has killed 60 million babies is under judgement from YHWH. He is done with the United States of America.
We have been under judgement ever since the 1962 School Prayer ruling. The first official Muslim Brotherhood front organization founded in the U.S. was the Muslim Students Association (MSA), established on the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University of Illinois in 1964. The Muslim Brotherhood is a type of the Assyrian that YHWH used to bring judgement on the 10 tribes that made up Israel. Al Qaeda is an off-shoot of the Muslim Brotherhood. Their 9/11 attack was a perfect fulfillment of Isaiah 9:8-13.
Since the 1973 Roe v. Wade things have really gotten worse. Since then we have never won a war, before then we never lost one. With Obama we finally got Isaiah 3:4-5 “I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. The people will be oppressed, everyone by another and every one by his neighbor; The child will be insolent toward the elder and the base to the honorable.”
All this moral decay was codified by Judges, just as the moral decay in Sodom and Gomorrah was, according to the Jewish sages, was codified by Judges. That puts us as “in the days of Lot” (Luke 17:28-37). The “great sign in the heaven” from Revelation 12:1-2 actually occurs on September 23-24, 2017.

As for Donald Trump, I view him as a type of Samson, whom YHWH raised up to bring down the Temple of Dagon on the Philistines. Read Judges 13-16 and then look at the characteristics Donald Trump shares with Samson: Doesn’t drink, ever; has really wild hair; is really harsh if you treat him badly or unfairly; ran around with a lot of foreign women.
Now look at Donald Trump’s slogan: “Make America Great Again”. Alexis de Tocqueville said: “America is great because she is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.” Donald Trump knows that in a country overrun with Philistines one can not campaign on “Make America Good Again”. However, if you look at what he says he will do, how offended he is by people lying about him, how offended he is with dirty tricks, how he hates the corruption in American government, etc. you know that he is trying to do is make America good again. So Donald Trump is bringing people out of the shadows, so to speak, and giving them hope that things can be better. This puts them out in the world where the Holy Spirit can bring believers into contact with those who are to be saved. So that is the spiritual aspect of the Trump campaign.
On the Bible Prophecy side, how is YHWH going to convince the Iranians that 2017 would be about the last time they, with their allies, can wipe out the United States and attack Israel to wipe it off the map?
How about we elect Donald Trump and he starts to make the American Military so strong that no one will want to mess with us? How about if he starts to root out the Muslim Brotherhood infiltration of the Government? In fact, the threat of having Donald Trump in the Whitehouse may well trigger the attack that is described in Ezekiel 38:10-13, which YHWH does not stop, so that the attack in Ezekiel 38:14-23, which YHWH will stop can take place. Then the End will come.
When the world gets to these critical points, there isn’t anything one can do to change the course set by YHWH for the world. It is much easier if you focus on that narrow way YHWH has for you to do as your part in His magnificent Word.
In 2012, I said that my Dog (who is as dumb as a Box of Barbara Boxers) could beat Obama. Well, I was mistaken.
Let’s hope for a better outcome against Lying Crooked Hillary this time around.
Most American dogs have more validation and
papers than the First Impostor Moslem from
whereever he hold true citizenship.
Is this your opus? This from someone who doesn’t see the importance of electing Trump is questioning his IQ? Your idiot meter just hit 11.
What exactly are you trying to say?
I presume you're voting for Donald Trump?
Vote Trump!
Your byline said it all, “Ignorant.” You could add lazy, for not finding out what is actually happening, or tolerant for letting them get away with it because it doesn’t hurt you (you think), or gullible for believing the liars, or just plain dishonest because you think you’re going to get something from the small pittance they leave behind,.......
This could take all day. So if you think there is something wrong with the system, find someone that will try to change it, or join the many.
I don’t agree with all the things Trump wants to do. But in the essence of a movie quote from Paint Your Wagon,
“You don’t know what you’ll get.
Maybe not, but I know what I’ve had.”

I assume Stayfree is saying anyone who voted for Obama or Clinton in the past and will again vote for Clinton has a negative IQ, which is hard to argue with. I think the phrasing caused some confusion.
Except perhaps BTK who was a dog catcher. But he would have been no worse for sure.
A conservative is going to compromise their principles whether or not they vote for Trump -- either by voting for a man with questionable consevative credentials or by not doing the most important patriotic duty a conservative has which is to defend our Constitution, our Republic and our God-given freedoms.
Despite all the hand-wringing, excuses and posturing, it really distills down to this.
I was astonished Obama won the first time and nearly fell over when he won again. Of course, the GOP ran spectacularly bad candidates. But, what comes around goes around. Hillary is a thousand times worse than Bob Dole. I believe she will lose by the largest margin in history.
Any toddler or person from death row would make a be/er president than Hillary, even if the death row inmate promised to do his best job to try and destroy america. Why? Hillary knows exactly what to do and how to destroy it but the death row inmate doesnt... Every single one of the 350 million americans would do a better job at President.
Is that you, Bill Kristol?
Let’s assume that Trump is as crooked as Hillary.
With the press and the government and all the 3 letter agencies hating him like they do he won’t be able to get away with .000001% of the stuff that the Billaries get away with.
That alone makes him a million times more desirable guarding the national assets and the American people.
