    I have never liked McCain. I never will. It is time for him to take a bow and leave life's stage.
    I suspect that decision has been made for him.

    Circumstances have.

    I look forward to seeing a Conservative take his place. I hope McCain's replacement will be a giant like Mike Lee or Ted Cruz.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    Ted Cruz is a weasel. Sorry. I disagree with Lee, but he seems sincere.

    Both are Constitutional Conservatives. Tim Scott, as well.

    I understand that is your position, but I think that you are trying to close the barn door long after the horse escaped.

    Do you mean the America we were given is ended? If so, why not begin the war now?

    Possibly because the constitutionalists are in the minority?

    Well, we would be more than happy to "mind our own business" if we were really given that choice.

    But Dear Leader appears to want to strike the US militarily--something that not even his father or grandfather threatened to do; so the US never came to the brink of war with North Korea when either of these was in power--but that is no longer the case.

    Does it not trouble you that America could easily become the target of a nuclear missile from a deranged Kim Jong-un?

    Or do you believe (as Neville Chamberlain once did) that the path to peace is through pacifism?

    A successful rebellion is possible if just 3% of the populace chooses to fight. When the options are slavery to an all powerful state or a fight for one chance to be free, then it is time to fight.
