I don't understand how the Republican Party focused like a laser on a woman's right to choose nor why gay marriage is a more important issue than domestic surveillance, foreign interventionism, reducing government agencies, nor the war on individual rights. One would think that a party supposedly devoted to small government would stop worrying about social issues. One would think that......
I don't think that government can be all things to all people as the Democrats do and I do believe that "the safety net can become a hammock" as Thomas Sowell so aptly observed. At every increase of increasing big government; I see the heavy hand behind it: for your own good. Safety issue. a risk.
So, there is NO Constitutionally sound, socially liberal, fiscally conservative party nor viable candidate out there today. Writing in my conscience seems easy, right? Write in a libertarian candidate like Ron Paul or Gary Johnson.
And then the Democratic National Party adds as part of their official platform, the below, and draws a line in the sand. Sigh....
we can work together to enact commonsense improvements—like reinstating the assault weapons ban
