I am a moderate and proud of it. I make up my own mind on political issues. I study the issues and read the legislation. If I vote and am disappointed, by my candidate or legislation i supported goes wrong, I accept the blame. I support and respect my leaders. That does not mean I agree with them. If you don't respect the man you can still respect the office he or she holds. I may make political jokes. However, I try to do no harm. I do not assume that because I support something it is the only way of approaching an issue. Before I same something about a stance on the Constitution, I know that I have done at minimum read the case law. Reread the portion of the Constitution that applies. I have read the Federalist papers and the Anti Federalist papers. However, with all that research I still do not assume my conclusion is right for all. You see like any human or group of humans I am subject . I try not to approach my views from a deeper understanding than emotion. Emotion is only a catalyst that makes me think. I wish more people would do their how work. Then again did they do it when they were in school? If they had maybe they their would be less anger and more pragmatic approaches.

It is time for all elected officials that have signed the NORQUIST PLEDGE, to retract any allegiance to it. In order to fulfill their obligation as elected officials they must look at each and every issue brought before a governmental body on its own merits. Write to your elected officials and ask them to withdraw their signature from this document. Allow your elected officials to act not because of a pledge but because they believe in what they are doing. This is one way of stopping the gridlock. I suggest people also become who Grover Norquist is, what he stands for and which organizations benefit from his pledge. THE OATH OF OFFICE IS THE ONLY PLEDGE THAT ELECTED OFFICIALS SHOULD BE HELD TO.

Voter fraud is not just an issue that involves Democrats as the Republicans
would like everyone to believe. Sometimes when someone yells fire, it is
a tactic to deflect an investigation of the perpetrator. Well here are some
possible issues regarding Republicans and voter fraud. Don't get me wrong.
Voter fraud is wrong. Will it ever be totally controlled? The answer is
a giant no. When society becomes so ethical that all types of theft stop
voter fraud will stop. I don't see that as a viable event my life time. Voter
fraud is another form of identity theft.
