Forum Post: The presidential application #TPA : A document by the people made from 100% free speech

What say you?

An application with the power of the Norquist tax pledge but on both parties. Supported by the two most popular political movements of the day, Occupy and the Tea Party.

We would need a forum specifically designed for the drafting of the application and open to public registration, heavily moderated, with the goal of drafting the application for each presidential election. Presidential candidates who refuse the application will risk losing the votes of those in support of the application. Candidates must fill out the application prior to any primary so positions on current issues can be locked in. The questions will be compiled from everyday people , removing any grey area for politicians to spin and wiggle.

A document by the people made from 100% free speech and a use of technology that levels the political playing field.

Only you could be fuckin dumb enough to think that site it anything besides what it is...

go vote for more bombs. There's plenty of resources to still exploit.

It's the neolibe(R)tarains that are profiting off not only the bombs, but the propaganda that makes you say such things..........!

Get your lies straight!

Your staunch refusal to even accept the possibility that politics could extend beyond a simple duopoly IS the result of propaganda.

Where else have you heard a theory using a third, worldwide political philosophy, that fits the evidence?

A philosophy whose very tenets are about self profits?

The philosophy that's practiced in boardrooms all over the World?

Irrespective of the governments involved?

Subjugating them or pitting them against each other if need be?

CNN?

FLAKESnews?

MSNBC?

CATO?

I don't think so.

Neolibertarianism, is that philosophy.

It manifests itself through influence, not it's name.

It's not that stuff from the French revolution.

I'm sorry, should have I add a fuck in there somewhere?

Only if you needed to, but we all know what you are hiding, so no need.

Who's we, and what do you think they know about me?

Word is, that you guys are probably establishment paid guys who come to sites to recite the same talking points as the media that they already own. Reinforce it.

Word from who?

Please do tell where in the media you've heard what I am proposing?

Where in the media have you heard the term neolibe(R)tarian?

It's you who's stuck in the "winger" paradigm.

I'll give you your cute little names, those are definitely all yours. You've earned them.

Making less sense, with fewer words.

I'll give you that.

Heyo!!

Others are working on voting rights.

What I'm talking about is a spearhead program to take over the political conversation in the US. The tip of the spear being the application document itself, which will then shed light on the conversation that takes place in drafting each application for each election.

"Voter rights". What does that mean?
