GOP Warhawks Do Reason No Favors


In the recent GOP debates, many of the candidates, with the notable exception of Ron Paul, have produced plans to use military action against Iran in retaliation to their efforts at Uranium enrichment.  In the process, they are stumbling down the same road as the failure of Iraq and Afghanistan.

We do not need another war, and if we were to go to war, we need more of an endgame strategy than we have right now.  We cannot assume we will merely bomb the Iranians into submission and all will be good as gold.  Hardly.   We need a thorough plan to deal with Iran, one that does not involve bombing.  If we did resort to violence, then we must have a strategy to fight and end the war, and what to do to rebuild Iran and our own nation.

An Alternative

We aim to create a powerful third party in America.  We endeavor to be the alternative to the Republican and Democratic parties.  In doing so, we hope to reflect the values of the american people.
The traditional parties in America must stop politicizing every issue.  Our leaders instead should do what they were elected to do: lead.   This may involve taking some unpopular positions, and refusing handouts and perhaps being unpopular in the insider circle.  Our leaders must deal with all of this, and take a firm stand for the people.  We need people who will speak and vote their mind, not simply another candidate who will rubber stamp their party's agenda.  We need our leaders to be the agents of positive change in our government.  Help us elect people who will do this.  We need leaders who will improve America.
