Title: US Republican President candidates true colors fly with tough questions

The true test of an American politician's convictions to their party are found in how they answer the tough questions.

The Republican party preaches less government and more control with the states to set their own laws. In the US the state of Colorado has legalized recreational use of marijuana. In the Republican debate tonight (held in Colorado) the candidates were asked what their position was on marijuana legalization.

  • Several candidates were for legalization for medical use
  • Most candidates were against the states deciding how to handle the legalization question
  • Carly Fiorina is the only one who stayed true to Republican ideals - let the states decide but her personal choice is she's against it

These candidates are bums. Fiorina may be the best pick at this point...

Kinda leaves you with a sense that allot of the candidates mostly republican are way out of date with reality, especially the ones that want to roll back the laws that the citizens and their states enacted, bullying their self righteous way into office,to cleans us all what a bunch of horse crape. think long and hard about who you vote for. there are snakes in the pits.

1.  The history of drug illegality has it's roots in Democratic policy and politicians.  Deep roots.

2.  The perpetuation of abusing drug policy has occurred equally in both parties.

3.  The primary beneficiaries of abusive drug policy at all levels are lawyers.  As a voting block lawyers are hugely Democratic.

4.  Democrats seem to have been FOR federal decisions on birth control, health insurance, gun control, free speech (or not), generally anti-constitutional in their approach.  If they are willing to look the other way when states enact pro marihuana legislation, it is simply part of their No Rule of Law attitude.

5.  Republicans seem to be SLIGHTLY leaning toward federal control of marihuana policy.  But that isn't the same as "anti marihuana," is it?

Just trying to inject some clarity here...

Have you heard Fiorina's foreign policy about refusing to even speak w/ Putin and to start throwing billions more into new air craft carriers and military planes? We have more than we need right now especially if we're focused on just protecting the US mainland. Rand Paul has always been for states' rights as any libertarian would be, it's just that the mainstream media wants to keep him in the backdrop w/o a chance to surge. Rand is the true anti-establishment candidate but the media is misrepresenting this fact and thus they've been making this a Trump-Carson-Fiorina charade w/ a few attaboys for Bush and Rubio. If you watched the debate yesterday, the panel wasn't even gonna let Rand talk about his flat tax until he butted in. It was so obvious that he wasn't getting his share of time that they had to sit back and let him speak. These guys are corporate media hacks and Rand Paul would shut off the big spending that these guys' backers need and want; none of the others on stage would challenge the status quo except maybe Cruz to some degree.

This is all true.

There's a united effort by all persons and parties to move Rand Paul to the basement.
