The enemy was Communism, and it is not the same. As you well know. Nazi Germany was socialist. Progressive = Socialism = Communism It is the time frame that differs.

So why did we hang Japanese troops who waterboarded POWs? Revenge, to the victor belong the spoils. We were still pissed about Pearl Harbor. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

"Natural Citizen" is not yet defined. Legitimate discussion on "possible solutions", not a problem. Do you fear executive orders now? Not a problem, bills are introduced to state a position. That does not make them law. I agree with rushmc, waterboarding is not torture. Inducing fear to gain information is standard interrogation. I see no violations of the Constitution in your examples, only the fear of conservative violations to counter the liberal violations already in place. I grew up and served in the military during a time when socialism was America's enemy. Please explain the difference between socialism and the Democratic Party.

Article 2; S 1: That is not applicable unless the courts say it is. Article 2; S 2: I see no conflict here. Amendment 1: I see no conflict here. Amendment 8: Not relevant at all. Looks like you are shooting in the dark. I have to choose one candidate. If Cruz does not make the nomination, rest assured I will cast my final ballot for Trump... or Rubio. I think Kim Jong Un is a better choice than Hillary. At least everyone would do whatever it takes to keep him on a leash, but HRC is given way more credit than she has, in fact, earned. Anyone but Hillary is going to be 'hold your nose and vote,' simply to keep her out of power. The alternatives all suck out loud (Cruz is 3% better than HRC at best). Who do you like thus far in this drama? I find any and all of them nauseating, for various reasons and to different extents. I think Hillary is evil. I think Sanders is both naive and arithmetically illiterate. I think Cruz is just another extrusion from Harvard Law. I'm underwhelmed by Rubio. I found him so unimpressive right out of the gate that I have not seen fit to reexamine his potential. I was impressed that Bush was the person to have in charge when hurricanes Frances and Jeanne went overhead, but I sincerely doubt that he has the skillset to do well on the world stage. His brother seemed to be reasonably competent when Governor of Texas, but he was out of his league in the Oval Office. Kasich, similarly, seems quite competent as Chief Executive of Ohio, where getting results is akin to herding cats. I am unconvinced that he has the combination of global and historical perspective, economic system understanding, charisma, humor, managerial skills, credibility and raw cunning necessary to pull it all together in the White house. Trump is the worst kind of political joke. The only saving graces of his that come to mind are that people who view Obama as a pussy could worry that Trump might summarily rain on their parade, and, should he decide to do so, he might turn a profit in doing so. He seems like the kind of person that gives Americans a richly deserved bad name, but it would be nice to have someone in charge who understood how to generate wealth (at least for himself). The idea that you can get rich by spending other people's money works if he would fund our hegemony with other countries' treasuries. If he viewed the U.S. Government as being simply one more organization that he could bankrupt while retaining his own golden parachute, not so good. We find ourselves like being in an aircraft descending at 12,000 fpm through 1,000 feet, where who takes the controls basically changes only the angle of impact. Our economy has such downward momentum that 'recovery' as we understand it is not a viable option. If we had elected the Mormon in the last go around (boy, is that guy charismatic!), we might have had a chance to limit the damage. I do not think we have anyone this time with the skills and chutzpah to pull it off, and I think we are too far gone in any event (run the numbers). I wish I was wrong, but see no indication that that is the case. It was fun while it lasted. BSBD, Winsor Yeah, I agree but, there is a part of me that wants to maintain some glimmer of hope.

Kudos to the Don. He is up front and you know where he stands. If he is elected president all these accusations will be forgotten. Remember, he is a 100% New Yorker; it's what they do. I've seen and heard New Yorkers threatened to sue over trivial matters many times living in FL. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Be advised that Ted Cruz is a product of Harvard Law. Saying what you want to hear is his stock in trade. The principle of doing the same thing and expecting different results applies here. I have no argument there. Cruz is the only candidate campaigning on upholding the U.S. Constitution. The others are authoritarian, socialist/progressive and status quo.

My wife and I were discussing our current presidential circus. We agreed that our anger/fear strongly influences us to make a decision for Donald Trump. In so doing, we would be in the same camp with our peer group. However, we decided that the proper decision for the good of the country is Ted Cruz. Now we have to sell it.

Homosexual behavior is an abomination in God's word. He places that sinful behavior in a special category. Society has accepted it, I do not. There is nothing I can do about it. Homosexuals cannot get married in the Church of God, my church. All the rest of the issues mentioned above mean nothing to me. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

I don't mind y'all trying to give me crap but at least try to stay within the proper context. I have never made any claims to the date of the Battle of Armageddon. It will not occur until after the Tribulation, the rapture, the rise of the Antichrist, the desolation of the temple just to name a few events. Right now we have to elect leaders that will reverse the damage done by BHO and his Muslim cohorts. Number one is to close off the southwest border.

Correct, however, the county sheriff is the final authority. Plus, we have one year to turn things around. It does not look good though. Our country has become too decadent, irresponsible and self-serving. God's punishment is likely about to manifest. He will not grant us grace beyond our obedience.

An excellent use of our technology and surpluses. The equipment is put to good use and is benevolent. The scary thought is, what if we have a malevolent administration?

I was silent on the issue until normiss introduced it. I entered the thread with my opinion on Trump's popularity. BHO is a closed issued. George Soros made him and used him to hose America. Nothing can be done about that now. We have to hope we can reverse his influence on the next go round. I don't necessarily think Trump is the answer because Cruz is more reasonable and politically knowledgeable. However, I like the way that Trump rattles the progressive liberals including the media.

I love it when people presume things about other people. No shit? Really? After 8ish years talking about the subject off and on here there was no way I could have known that. Thanks for the civics lesson, Professor. Nonsense. Presume!!? I was minding my own business when you starting acting like you needed a scapegoat. You must be having a bad. SAT, I hope it gets better for you. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Only in regards to BHO. Which means it really has nothing to do with whether or not the individual is a "natural born citizen," but rather something else. Good job. Define "natural born citizen." Dude. YOU are the one with the problem. YOU define it. Dude, you haven't been keeping up with the news. The term is not defined constitutionally. For the record, Cruz's birth certificate has never been in question. BHO had to manufacture a replica following public pressure. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.
