I figured it would probably never see the light of day but I feel very strongly that we most certainly do NOT need another Bush or Clinton in the White House. That is why I posted here even though politics are a dangerous topic.
My motto for the 2016 campaign would be "Almost Anyone But Bush!"
I can't say who I would support but I know about a dozen that I will definitely not support.
Anyway, here is what I wrote in it's unedited entirety.
Mr. Bush:
Please withdraw from the presidential race. We The People have had enough of the Bush
family, and their political ideology, in the executive branch and in politics
in general.
While we certainly acknowledge your right to run for the
office of president, it's difficult to see what you bring to the table that is good
for the United States.
It's time for fresh perspectives. More accurately, it’s time for perspectives
rooted in the wisdom of those who built this representative republic;
perspective that understands the admonishments of those who warned us not get
embroiled in the affairs of other nations.
We need right-minded perspectives rather than the same hawkish mentality
of projected military force, intervention in the affairs of other nations,
outright toppling of legitimate governments, feeding the international corporate
beasts and the endless trampling under foot of the Constitution.
Your father embraced globalism and your brother took this
country quickly down the path toward becoming literal police state. They both boosted federally centered statism
and corporatism while injuring or destroying the quality of life for millions
of people around the world. Your brother
ignored the Constitution and put his “war” against “terrorism” above the
fetters of the law. I am sure that you
will exercise more of the same dangerous and destructive policies, having
shared much in common with his formative upbringing.
We don't need more of the same, and that’s all you have to
offer. You sir look the same as those
who have occupied the White House for the last several decades. You appear to be a blend of the hawks and the
apologists; a man whose principles are given to him by the interests which
support you.
But we will NOT support you in your bid for the Republican
nomination, and if you are successful in achieving that goal, we will certainly
oppose you in the general election.
We will not stop speaking out against the same, tired
foreign policy that has engendered such misery around the world.
We will not stop opposing the erosion and outright attacks
against the Constitution in this nation.
We will not cease from shining the light on the lack of
border security and the inherent risks such dereliction of duty brings to our
nation.
We will continue to protest against overbearing,
bureaucratic controls imposed against our will; squelching industry and
destroying industry and the middle class.
We will not turn a blind eye, or deaf ear, to the gross violations
of constitutionally guaranteed rights of the citizens of these great states.
You may be legally entitled, but you sir are not fit to hold
the office of President of the United States, and we ask that you humbly
acknowledge that and remove yourself from consideration.
Respectfully,
Timothy Gaunt
One of The People
