I DO DARE SAY that your post does reveal the content of your character. First and foremost, the Founding Fathers never intended for an elected office to be a "full time" paid position with benefits, including the Presidency. They only intended that they be reimbursed for travel, and housing expenses etc. For you to use the Presidency as an example to back up your opinion that the possible conflict of interest and nepotism are a good thing is preposterous! These ideals are the very progressive cancer that is feeding on the Republican party. Besides, your name says it all! What is the purpose of GOP unity if the electorate doesn't trust the GOP and won't vote for them because they allow corruption, conflict of interest, nepotism, back room deals?M Campbellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7920409706667621883.post-12996503194679692452010-07-20T20:51:18.965-04:002010-07-20T20:51:18.965-04:00M Campbell, you do not know me, and I was only pro...M Campbell, you do not know me, and I was only providing an alternate point of view.

What about conflict of interest? What about nepotism? Sometimes those that have the "good of the party" attitude also have the "what's in it for me attitude" instead of following God's will. I think the GOP would do a lot better as elected officials if they had the "what is Gods will for me","what can I do for the good of the people" and "what can I do for my Country" attitude. It is very clear, we must elect true God fearing Statesman instead of selfish politicians!M Campbellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7920409706667621883.post-87935650894013703772010-07-19T20:47:31.465-04:002010-07-19T20:47:31.465-04:00Yes, anonymous, that's the point.

They are like irresponsible children that didn't follow the rules so now we have to take the keys away. The only way this is going to be fixed is for the citizens of this Country to stand up, start fixing the foundation at the local level and then work our way up. I just pray that we have enough time left to do it before it all comes crumbling down on us.

The establishment doesn't understand that the downfall of the Republican Party is that by endorsing any and all candidates with an "R" by their name they are setting themselves up. When voters see that there are a lot of Republicans and Democrats in office that are taking us down the same road, they get turned off by the party. The voters don't like it when they see the party endorse guys like Arlen Specter just a couple of years ago who clearly was part of the cancer in the party. Then on top of that, the party continues to endorse candidates just like him! Who wants to be associated with that? If the party truly wanted good candidates in office that would make a good name for the party, they would allow the committee people to do their job and let the voters know who all the candidates are in the primary. Secondly, if a voter asks you who to vote for, you should be able to say, these are the candidates I support and give them a reason why. I mean, they asked and if the candidates you suggested are in the party, no rules were broken. When Armstrong GOP Committee's Secretary, Kirk Atwood, made that comment regarding Sam Rohrer, doesn't that tell us that he obviously did not support Sam and then doesn't that mean he broke his own rule and should he be subject to being removed from the committee?M Campbellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7920409706667621883.post-2120003453148580442010-06-28T11:39:46.441-04:002010-06-28T11:39:46.441-04:00Is this the same "Randy Cloak" who was p...Is this the same "Randy Cloak" who was paid as a "consultant" for doing committee work, putting on fundraising events?
