I think that he is a congressman but not sure. At least he is pro-Life. I think we should watch this candidate and check out his credentials. At least he is correct on one issue.

Yes, but he doesn’t have a chance. So to vote for him is to throw away your vote.
 
Your probably right. He, like Abraham Lincoln, has lost several elections.

The same issue comes up every election. Christians much compromise some basic principle in order to vote for anyone. I’m for a Catholic monarchy.

It’s better to throw your vote away than to casrt it for the baby murderers. It’s not a Democrat versus Republican issue.

If Guiliani and Clinton–both pro-death are the respective nominees I will vote 3d party pro-life.

Anyone who votes for pro-death candidates will have to answer for it–either in this world or the next!

I have never liked this idea.

The idea that a vote for a candidate that is perceived to have no hope of winning is to throw your vote away.

That is just nonsense. To hold to his logic is to say that the only proper use of your vote is to vote like everyone else and to ignore your conscience.

Leeta (and others),

The way the American political system works, he doesn’t have to win in order to be effective. What happens is that the two main parties get increasingly out-of-touch with the voters and a third party starts up that answers the voters’ concerns. After the third party gets about 15 percent of the vote, the two major parties wake up (“They’re stealing our votes!”) and adopt the third party’s platform. So the platform gets implemented and the third party fades away.

Me too! I would completly support a movement for Monarchy within the United States. I’m glad to know I’m not the only one in the world.

Now if I can remember how to select a write in candidate. I did vote for one in the last election for Governor of Ill. When I looked at the election results the next day they didn’t even record his votes. Makes me a bit suspicious but perhaps I did it wrong.

Father Corapi and Father Pavone hip hip hurrah! Will Pope Benedict go along with this?
