Here I go into more detail about why I support Mike Gravel's candidacy for President and compare him to some of the other underdog candidates.

  • I recognize a map of Portland when I see it. Hola neighbor. This is one of the saner response videos I've seen. I hope I actually get the chance to vote for Gravel, but I doubt it'll happen.

  • Sorry, but I'm not sure I follow your train of thought. Could you please refer to something I said that connects to your point. If you've listened to RP's liberty, freedom, and peace message, I don't think you will ever find him wanting to impose solutions to yours, mine, or anyones problems as that is not what goc. is supposed to do. He has repeatedly stated he doesn't want to run anyones life, or the economy, or police the world.

  • So instead of the true majority, we have a very small minority (our elected or appointed officials) in power. Personally, I prefer a majority to that minority when it comes to who deprives or limits liberty and freedom. The National Initiative could serve to more directly represent the people, in cases when that minority pursues its own interests over the interests of the whole.

  • bbburton: I see nothing in the Constitution that states that these departments cannot exist. On the other hand, without them we would be forced to rely on the private sector (inevitably, large corporations) for our, energy, military, social security, education, and more. Does that not frighten you?

  • bbburton: I agree, except on one point: income tax is constitutional. The 16th amendmant, in particular, made it so.

    But I agree with your other criticisms of the income tax and others (for example, it encourages a consumerist culture, the source of many of our country's problems). That's why I support Gravel's dissolution of the income tax.

  • Those who crafted the Constitution did so with one purpose in mind, to secure to the people the blessings of liberty and freedom. Your interpretation is that the gov. is responsible for dispensing liberty and freedom. This is so wrong. We are a Constitutional Republic; democracy is a potential threat to both liberty and freedom if we believe the majority can deprive or limit individual liberty and freedom.
