Primary Elections are private

Having had many conversations recently regarding primary election process with my husband and others, I have come to the position that political parties are private, not public, clubs. As such those clubs should not be wasting public time or public monies to do anything that is solely an internal matter; deciding candidates to run in elections for public office. Following is an excerpt from a letter to the editor on this topic written by Dick Wells.

"Since political parties are private clubs; and as such, they are necessarily like any other "special interest" group; therefore, it is perfectly permissible for them to exclude valid candidates from their "forums." Is it not possible for someone else, other than the power parties, to conduct a forum to offer a balanced opportunity to all the candidates?

It does however, beg question of why the public bears the cost of selecting the party's candidates in a primary election, if we cannot hear from all the candidates who can receive our vote in November. Moreover, is there not doubt concerning whether or not a voter is really a party member when he casts his vote in the primary, in that party? Nothing beyond personal integrity will keep a voter from voting in the opposition party's election to enhance his party's candidate's chances by ruining a stronger, opposition-candidate's chances. That being the case, what makes anyone think the people made "their" choice in picking a party's candidate in a primary election?

I believe that there is a strong argument for abolishing the primary election entirely, unless it is in each party's central committee meeting, and leave the public's money completely out of the picture until the general election. Let each political party decide amongst themselves, who their candidates will be. Think about it: no endless campaigning, until the month or two before the general election, unless you are attending party meetings."

Interesting Confluence of Tyranny

Consider the year 1916 and a few just before and after:

Death tax
Income tax - 16th amendment
Federal Reserve
Lost State's right to balance Congress - 17th amendment Prohibition (we all know how well THAT worked) - repealed 14 years later, after a miserable failure -- BUT, it set the stage for the largest expansion of tyrannical government spying and despotism the world has ever seen (no apology to FBI managers, many of whose underlings deserve praise for doing their jobs well, but some deserve only derision - Horiuchi and Ruby Ridge come to mind....)

Can you think of other things to add? Please do so and reply with them as well -- and please pass this on to your other email contacts.

'Colonel' Edward Mandell House - corruption of the Republic

Though I do not watch FOX on a regular basis - due to inability to receive it by antenna - I am not particularly a fan of the personality of Glenn Beck though he is serving the Cause of Freedom greatly in bring to his viewers attention certain untaught and unreported historic factoids - important stuff that is affecting all of us and has led to the current dissolution of our Constitutional Republic of theses United States in America. I learned that Beck's recent program July 15, 2010 was devoted to 'Colonel' Edward Mandell House and his role in the establishment of the Council on Foreign Relations. Below are two links to further elaborate on CFR and 'Colonel' House that I encourage all to read.
