Would you vote for a man who openly says he would repeal ObamaCare…..
favors a fair tax and wants to abolish the Internal Revenue Service….opposes Obama’s efforts to offer illegal aliens
amnesty and promises to secure the borders…..decries a federal government “that
wages an assault on our religious liberty…..wants a federal government that
“works to defend the sanctity of human life” and would “uphold the sacrament of
marriage”….defends our Second Amendment rights and condemns the effort ban
ammunition….who condemns a federal government that seeks to dictate school
curriculums and wants to repeal “every word of Common Core….who would stand “unapologetically
with the nation of Israel….would do everything he could to ensure that Iran
does not acquire a nuclear weapon….says he would do everything he could to
defeat radical Islamic terrorism?
I said I would on May 6, 2013
when he was beginning to get attention. Columnist George Will said he was “as
good as it gets” when it comes to being a true conservative in Congress.........It has been a long time since a real conservative Republican, Ronald
Reagan, was elected President, but it can happen again as serious voters,
particularly those who are independents, join with those who find Sen. Cruz a
refreshing voice, Will he get the nomination?..........To Read More....

Americans are learning the hard way that the federal government should
not be permitted to impose one-size-fits-all standards to education. It was
never intended to play a role in education and the absence of any mention in
the Constitution is proof enough that education was intended to be supervised
by the states where the school districts, schools, and parents are closest to
the process. Common Core is going to play a large role in the
2016 elections and that is likely to impact former Governor Jeb Bush the most.
At the heart of the unhappiness with Common Core has been its emphasis on
testing. A March 20th Wall Street Journal
article, “Bush Faces Test of Exam Policy”, reported that “A Rasmussen Reports
nationwide survey in February found that 52% of respondents thought there was
too much emphasis on testing in schools and 69% believed there was too much
‘teaching to the test.’” The transformation of the nation’s educational
system began when the Department of Education was signed into law by Jimmy
Carter in 1979 and began operating in 1980……. It continued with the passage of
No Child Left Behind (NCLB)…… To Read More.....

President Obama made no secret of his displeasure that Benjamin
Netanyahu was reelected to be Israel’s Prime Minister. Only David Ben Gurion,
Israel’s first Prime Minister and one of the nation’s founders, served longer. Obama lives in some
parallel universe apart from the lessons of history and the realities of what
is actually occurring. On May 18, 2009, not long after Obama had been in office
and Netanyahu was visiting the White House, Obama was demanding that he endorse
Palestinian statehood and freeze the settlements on the West Bank. Considering that the
Palestinians had refused statehood from the day the United Nations endorsed
Israel’s independence that has been a fool’s mission no matter who was
President or Prime Minister…… To Read More.....
