Re: Romney leads the Republican 2016 Prez list!

I'd rather help Jeb Bush get elected than help Hillary defeat Romney.

There is no way, it is absolutely impossible, I will NEVER support a Romney - X any body Republican ticket.

Honestly, if anyone is going to beat Hillary (and it will be very tough), it will be Jeb Bush. Whoever his VP, that person CANNOT be a fringe idiot! The person needs to be articulate.

If Jeb Bush can find a Conservative Latina as his running partner, he would make the race SO COMPETITIVE (but this implies that race and sex will be a factor for some in their political decision-making).

In fact, he needs to look for such a running mate who has a non-traditional political background, like President Obama's background.

And your retort makes you appear ignorant and immature. But that's just how you appear....you may have me fooled. But then again, you do support a Christian hating, baby killing President....so maybe I perceive of you correctly.

I don't understand the whole "Libertarian Christian" label. I've always thought you were either Christian or not. I understand that Christians may hold Libertarian, Conservative, Moderate, Liberal political views...for instance, I hold Libertarian views on a few issues...less government is better. But as for marriage...I don't see the problem with government upholding what God designed, and what nature itself teaches per say. If gay people wanna do whatever, so be it, but what right should they have to steal or partake in something God instituted and desecrate it? And abortion...there have been bills produced that would have protected the mothers life and given her a choice in the case of a fatal birth. ....empowering government to protect human life? That's part of our constitution. We have laws in place today, written and enacted by our Government that are there to protect us....should we abolish those because it may empower the Government? Abortion isn't a political issue anyway...it's a moral issue. No matter how Libertarian you wanna be or are proud to be....no law equates to chaos...especially in today's society. Life comes from God and no one has a right to take that life...if there were to be just one law, i'd like to think Christians would have no problem with that law being protection for defense less innocent life. Anybody can say they're a Christian...but today, that word is meaningless because everybody who believes that there is a God, is considered a Christian. We are all sinners, unworthy to even feel the presence of God....we are human and make countless mistakes,...that's not what makes us a non Christian, but when our core beliefs are so in line with the mainstream on something so evil and disgusting as abortion...something is terribly wrong.

Re: Romney leads the Republican 2016 Prez list!

I am a Christian first before anything. I used to be a Republican but decided there was not enough difference between the two parties. Abortion, wars and spending are the same in both parties. So I checked out a few Libertarian books. One of the core values is that each person has inalienable rights. This fits perfectly with what I believe. The unborn child in the womb has rights to. Like the right to be born. My two cents.

Oh one other thing. We do not have to go all the way back to 1776 but we do need to make drastic changes. We do need a safety net for those less fortunate but it should not become full of misuse and fraud. I don't want to shut down the post office either but they need to be held accountable for the money that they are given. Poor result with no changes for improvement, then you get a pay cut.

Bottom line is we all need to have common sense and work together.

I would like to know what private method there is out there that would have any kind of an effect on abortion.
