Suggest a GOP platform?

We Answered:

The platform which the GOP should run on was laid out by Ron Paul during his campaign for the Republican nomination last year.

The GOP should advocate the withdrawal of America from the UN. The UN is a threat to the sovereignty of the United States and has consistently attacked genuine freedom and human rights (for example, the UN Human Rights Commission believes that criticizing religion in general and Islam in particular is a human rights violation, the UN favors gun "control," and the UN promotes abortion). The GOP should advocate the abolition of the IRS tax and its replacement by nothing (if we abolish the IRS, we could pay for the same level of big government we had 10 years ago without replacing it). The GOP should advocate the abolition of the Federal Reserve (the root cause of the economic crisis) and a return to sound money (a gold or silver standard would restrain the growth of government, would end inflation, and would prevent future recessions). The GOP should once again advocate the abolition of the Departments of Education and Energy (useless departments which Reagan promised to abolish, a promise he unfortunately failed to keep). The GOP should call for the abolition of welfare (which has been outsourced to churches as part of the Bush administration's "compassionate conservatism").

The Republican Party should return to its traditional foreign policy of noninterventionism and repudiate the failed Neo-Con foreign policy of Bush (which was based upon the foreign policy of Democrats Woodrow Wilson, Harry Truman, and Lyndon Johnson). In fact, Bush ran on noninterventionism in 2000 and condemned Clinton and Gore's nation-building, yet embraced the interventionist foreign and domestic policies of the Democrats once he was sworn into office (and in doing so was harshly criticized by Democrat partisans).

Ron Paul (and others within his faction of the GOP) saw the current problems coming and predicted every bit of what we are witnessing today. The libertarian wing of the Republican Party can achieve for Republicans what David Cameron has achieved for the Conservative Party of the UK (which is expected to win a landslide victory this year in the UK general election). Ron Paul Republicanism is a more principled version of the socially moderate and fiscally conservative ideology that has been so successful for the British Tories.

Americans are increasingly becoming more socially tolerant and so the returns from social conservatism will continue to diminish. However, the number of Americans who are fiscally conservative is likely to increase, as it did during the days of FDR (in fact, the Ron Paul movement is a revival of the Old Right which was opposed to FDR and which won a decisive victory in the 1946 Congressional election, but were stopped by the Rockefeller Republicans from ever following up their congressional victory with a presidential election victory even though they had the support of the majority of Americans, especially in the midwest, from 1946 to 1952 or so). As Obama's interventionist policies leave us with an America that is unrecognizable and fail to bring about economic recovery, the remnant of libertarians who believe in the founding values of this country will increase. If the Republican nominee for president in 2012 is Gary Johnson, Ron Paul, or somebody else accepted to the increasing libertarian constituency, then Obama's reign of terror will be over in January of 2013 and the Federal Reserve will hopefully be dead before its 100th birthday on November 22nd, 2013.

Spiritually speaking how do you feel about the new Texas GOP platform?

We Answered:

I bet they claim to believe in freedom.

What morons. They believe that only white, conservative Christians should have freedoms, and then only the limited freedoms that the party elite declare. They probably think the Bill of Rights is a radical, leftist idea.

Becky Said:

Why have the Montana and Texas GOP adopted a policy of "criminalizing homosexuality" on their party platform?

We Answered:

Maybe they just want people to do it only in the privacy of their own homes. Where is the language of their proposed law? I've seen you post this so many times. Find their proposal and post that for analysis.
