Since then, I learned some things.
There are more choices for President.
They need to be included in the Presidential debates in order for the Country to take them seriously.
There’s a website that helps you identify the candidate that matches your issues.
We need to pray and work to make these other candidates known.
Let’s start with the last one.
We need to pray and work to make these other candidates known.
I’m not going to vote for anyone that I don’t trust. Therefore, I’m not going to vote for Hillary or Trump. So, I’m asking you to join me in prayer again, that the Presidential Debate Committee will open the debates for third party candidates. To date, as far as I know, only one third party is being considered. The Libertarian Party. And yes, I do trust those candidates more than I trust either Hillary or Trump. They both sound very honest and have a proven track record as Governors, where they successfully improved the quality of life in their respective states. I also like their idea that they will run the country as co-Presidents. It reminds me of the way the Catholic Church was moved to Rome by Sts. Peter and Paul.
But, I have learned that there are other Parties out there, who have not been given attention by the Media. Letting them into the debates would allow the voting public to be more completely informed on the options that they have for President.
There’s a website that helps you identify the candidate that matches your issues.
Until I went to this website, I thought I was a one issue voter. But, they offer a quiz which is very detailed. You even have the option to write in some of your answers. I did, on two or three occasions. It took me about an hour to complete the quiz. It came up with several candidates in order of which I matched more closely. I only looked as deeply as the first five and I don’t remember how many choices it produced. But it was nice to know that we are not necessarily locked in to the two candidates that the Media and the Establishment are trying to shove down our throats.
They need to be included in the Presidential debates in order for the Country to take them seriously.
Folks, we’ve prayed for God to give us candidates worthy of our vote. God has revealed that there are other people out there. Now, let’s work to get these people on the Presidential debates and in the News so that we can make an informed decision on who we want for President. To that end, I ask you to again, join me in prayer. This time to the Patron Saint of Politicians.
Dear St. Thomas More, in your earthly life, you were a model of prudence. You never thrust yourself rashly into any serious undertaking; instead, you tested the strength of your powers and waited on God’s will in prayer and penance, then boldly carried it out without hesitation. Through your prayers and intercession, obtain for me the virtues of patience, prudence, wisdom and courage. Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory Be…Glorious St. Thomas More, I beg you to take up my cause, confident that you will advocate for me before God’s Throne with the same zeal and diligence that marked your career on earth. If it be in accord with God’s will, obtain for me the favor I seek, namely that the Presidential Debate Committee be persuaded to permit Third Parties to participate in the Presidential Debates.V. Pray for us, O Blessed St. Thomas More.R. That we may faithfully follow you on the hard road that leads to the narrow gate of eternal life.
In Conclusion
Folks, thanks for participating with me. I hope that you agree with me that the People of these United States deserve better than the two choices which are now being forced upon us. And I hope you will join me in bringing these other choices to light, so that we can all make an informed decision.
I firmly believe that a vote for someone in whom we don’t trust, is a wasted vote! Let’s identify good people to vote for. And let’s vote for them.
