Really? You should watch this, then tell me intervention is a great idea.

Elections are meaningless.

Name one candidate, once elected, that actually :
_ Dared to mention the "State of Emergency" in place since 1933;
_ Admitted that "dollar bills" are not dollars, nor are they redeemable;
_ Pointed out that FICA (socialism) is 100% voluntary, and no law compels participation;
_ Explained that due to clause 4, 14th amendment, USCON, no one can question the validity of the public debt, even if it IS fraudulent;
_ Understood the meaning and source of the "republican form of government" as guaranteed in Art. 4, Sec. 4, USCON.

Rand is right and probably the smartest Republican running...but you can just see in the debates that his thought process for some of the other Repub candidates is 'how can you be this dumb?' Which of course turns off a lot of people.

Like Iraq? Or the embargo that killed over a million children in Iraq?

They never messed with America until we went into the Middle East.Naive is thinking differently

So if China puts troops on our soil you'd feel the same?
