Hillary Clinton Does Not Deserve Your Vote

    It has become quite clear in the last year, if not the years prior, that Mrs. Clinton is not only a liar, but a corrupt, careless, and mean-spirited woman.
    Hillary has lied to the American people over and over about many things.  She has repeated lies, and compounded her lies with more lies.  She has called people talking truth to and about her liars.  Hillary wouldn't know the truth if it slapped her in the face.
    Hillary, we now know, ran the State Department as a private enterprise, selling access and favors, and laundering the cash through the Clinton family's charitable foundation, and lining her personal coffers in the process.  We also know that foundation actually spent about 10% on actual charity, and 90% on salaries, travel and other expenses.
    Hillary told the world the Benghazi attacks were the result of a YouTube video.  She told the parents of the deceased the same thing.  When those families shared that with media, Hillary accused them of lying.  Sidebar: If that was a lie, then why are there two different stories about this? 
    Hillary, by accounts told by former Secret Service agents in the know, is a mean woman, who treats those around her with disdain.  She was reportedly verbally abusive to many agents, servants in the White House, and others, on many occasions. 
    This all adds up to Hillary being a contemptuous human being with little or no regard for anything we Americans hold near and dear to our hearts.  Hillary should not get your vote, and should not become our next President.

Gender Fluidity Not Supported by Science

The New Atlantis - Questions Related to Gender and Sexuality


    This paper goes into lengthy details about gender, sex and sexuality, and leads to the conclusion that gender identity is not arbitrary.  In other words, deciding you are man born in a woman's body, or woman born in a man's body, is not supported by scientific data.
    Science is something many people are not willing to spend time on, but are more than willing to make scientific declarations.  Along with climate change theory, gender identity theory says you can be whichever gender you choose, regardless of your genetics.
    This is a very interesting read, published by highly regarded and documented scientists.

Dan Rather is Laughable

Rather Tells Media to Shame Trump Supporters
    Yes, that Dan Rather.  The same Dan Rather disgraced out of a job for inventing a lie about George W. Bush. 
    Our TV News outlets today have become so biased to one side or the other it is becoming laughable.   Mostly the media lean left.  Journalists are no longer people who report just the facts, but embed opinions into news reporting in subtle and not-so-subtle ways.
    Many people I know accuse Fox News of being too conservative.  While that may be true, it only noticed because all the rest of the media is so far to the left.
    For a former journalist to suggest the media's job is the propagandize about presidential nominees goes well beyond reasonable and logical.  Journalists should be neutral in their reporting of news, and opinion pieced should be clearly identified as just that.
    Ask yourself, what is the job of journalists and news media.  Then ask if they deliver on that.
    Even the NY Times offered this piece, which tells you how far thins have moved to the left.
Liberal News Media Bias Has a Serious Effect

Government Incompetence

The Department of Health isn't telling the whole truth about Zika funding
    This demonstrates perfectly how incompetent out government machine is at providing for the general welfare of the citizens.  While claiming they need more funding for fighting the Zika virus, they waste money on other pet projects and projects of much lesser importance.
    It is very hard to justify the spending on the following list of projects when faced with a critical situation such as te spread of the Zika virus:

• Exercise programs for refugees
• Anti-smoking video games (This one is downright funny.)
• Weight-loss programs for truckers
• Gay hookup apps
• Teaching 11 year old Kenyan boys how to use condoms
• How do drunk men look at women?
• Anti-obesity rap songs
• Study the "freshman 15" (a reference to weight gains by college freshman)

    This demonstrates perfectly, to the tune of $49.5 million, how bureaucrats in DC are incapable of wisely choosing how to spend the tax dollars we all work so hard to earn and have forcibly taken from us by the IRS.
    Which would you rather the pinheads in DC spend your money on?

Convention of States Action

Article V Convention of States Action

    Article V of the US Constitution allows for the use of a convention of states to vote on proposed amendments to that constitution.  Article V is included here:

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.

   

    The following are examples of amendment topics that could be discussed at a convention of states:

• A balanced budget amendment
• A redefinition of the General Welfare Clause (the original view was the federal government could not spend money on any topic within the jurisdiction of the states)
• A redefinition of the Commerce Clause (the original view was that Congress was granted a narrow and exclusive power to regulate shipments across state lines–not all the economic activity of the nation)
• A prohibition of using international treaties and law to govern the domestic law of the United States
• A limitation on using Executive Orders and federal regulations to enact laws (since Congress is supposed to be the exclusive agency to enact laws)
• Imposing term limits on Congress and the Supreme Court
• Placing an upper limit on federal taxation
• Requiring the sunset of all existing federal taxes and a super-majority vote to replace them with new, fairer taxes

    Of course, these are merely examples of what would be up for discussion. The convention of states itself would determine which ideas deserve serious consideration, and it will take a majority of votes from the states to formally propose any amendments.
    The Founders gave us a legitimate path to save our liberty by using our state governments to impose binding restraints on the federal government. We must use the power granted to the states in the Constitution.
