After the very quick RICO trial there will be a lot of familiar Democrat faces working on chain gangs for a long, long time. They’ll think that “Cool Hand Luke” had a walk in the park!

That would a great and useful exercise; go ahead and write up the charges for the world to see.

The supplementary facts provided by Freepers with long memories, and historical facts should persuade everyone, except the sub-60 IQ types and the no-information parasites who literally don't know history, economics, simple arithmetic, and the simple, predictable consequence of making bad and ignorant choices. There are literally hundreds of those in Congress (both houses)!

What I'd like to see him and other conservatives advocate is that the Republican presidential candidate should be selected only by Republicans: no Rats or independents in the R primary. IMHO, it's largely because of open primaries that we get RINO nominees.

That would take the only remaining satisfying option in elections.
As a registered dim-o-crat I have in the past for Jesse Jackass, Al Sharpie and a plethora of other dimwits in the primaries.

Works both ways.

I prefer to work from within. There will always be a large group that votes for the party. It will take years, maybe decades for a third party to win the Presidency. I don't want to get stuck with 10 more Obama’s.

You're fighting the battle of the sixties. You will be stuck with 10 more Obamas (no apostrophe,) or worse if you "work from within."

When the enemy controls all venues of power, and each and all violate the constitution regularly with impunity, and there is NO recourse, "work from within" has become a cruel sick joke.

(But, the party should be based on old principals-the Constitution.)

Do it the easy way. Eliminate the Department of Education.

Cruz is working from within. Just primary out the least conservative 50% of Republicans and replace them with people as conservative as Cruz. Why not continue the same strategy that got us Cruz in the first place?

Ultimately I don’t think changing the party label magically changes anything. You have to find the right people. And once you find them, it doesn’t much matter what their label is.

I would also say give no money to the party itself unless and until it’s reformed from within. Only give to outside conservative groups who will fund conservative candidates.

The GOP has become a third-party.

The charge would be “conspiracy”. It would be quickly proven, penalties assessed, and prisoners led off in chains.
