…k to 2008, we remember that we were coming to the end of a Bush’s last term, a President whom the Democrats and media dubbed a Neocon, the 2006 election was backlash against Republicans, and the “Maverick” McCain served as an independent or moderate Republican who could win… and he was nominated. Unfortunately, McCain lost to an inexperienced far left ideologue, Barack Obama. If we remember back to just a few short years ago, Mitt Romney was “to…

…n, when a multiplex with sixteen screens will show only ten films, all puerile, adolescent sex-romps, eight of which are also playing at the ten-plex across town, and there’s not a single film for grown-ups! Meanwhile, worthy independent films get totally shafted. How many weekends a year can you have a segment of your audience conclude, “there’s nothing playing at the movies,” before they stop inquiring? Week in and week out, the NFL puts an exc…

…ndon in 1936. Long History of Rejecting Conservatism Romney assured Massachusetts voters when he was running for the Senate in 1994 that he did not want to go back to Reaganomics. He said during that campaign, ”I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I’m not trying to return to Reagan-Bush.” Romney was also one of the few Republicans in 1994 to refuse to sign on to Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America. He sai…

I’m not a Republican. I’m not a Democrat. I am one of those over-analyzed, unpredictable, card-carrying Independents who definitely swings both ways. (PS: Thank God we exist! We’re the only voters out here who the politicians cannot peg.) That said, I was prepared to write a lengthy article on why I pray that Ron Paul runs on an Independent ticket should he fail to garner the GOP nomination – not because I agree with e…

… I believe it is because they are afraid. I see it by the actions of the house Republicans, I see it in the action of the Senator’s Republicans and I’ve seen it in the actions of the Speaker. I have a lot of friends who are Independents who constantly ask me what is going on. They ask me how the Republican Party expects to get the votes of Independents when they can’t even agree amongst themselves on anything. I simply don’t know what to tell…

…t. The heroes, however, that’s a little more complicated. The actual heroes of the story are Republicans Henry Paulson (Secretary of the Treasury), Ben Bernanke (Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve) and Independent Timothy Geithner (President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York). They artfully maneuver their way through the minefield of economic collapse. Bear Stearns has already collapsed, Lehman Brothers is on the b…

… Constitution. This large amount of name recognition has Ms. Taitz as the perceived front runner in a field of Republicans seeking to dethrone Dianne Feinstein in the Senate this year. In fact, according to the Santa Barbara Independent on April 12, 2012: ”California Republicans are aghast at the distinct possibility that the GOP could be represented in the state’s 2012 U.S. Senate race by “birther queen” Orly Taitz.” The Orange Cou…

He may be a registered Independent, but the tone of his show is adamantly anti-Republican. And, evidently, he wants his anti-Republican show to leave voters with an impression that hopefully impacts elections. Lorne Michaels, who has donated a pa…

Cynthia believes he is correct that we spend way too much money nation building, and too much on the extravagant embassies, but added she does want us to remain a super power. Sarah is an independent but likes Ron Paul even though she doesn’t believe he has a chance.
