as a side comment, does the Constitution Party say the death penalty is wrong? if so, that seems very ironic in that, aren't they a "Bible believing political party"? ... if so, it's funny they take this position, as the Bible condones the death penalty when there is no shadow of doubt of a murder.

"The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism.  But, under the name of 'liberalism', they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."

Bob:  That’s a great point, Jose.  But the CP is also a minor party that has almost no effect on government policy.  Is that the model for the LP?  If so, I won’t rejoin, not because I’m not “libertarian,” but because I have better things to do with my time.  And, actually, Reps, Dems, and Libertarians have differing views on the death penalty.  And abortion.  And what’s a defensive war, and what isn’t.  Politics, as opposed to political philosophy, is about DIRECTION, not end states.  If I lived in Ron Paul’s district, I’d probably vote for him, although I happen to disagree with him on abortion and other issues.  I happen to like his direction.
