Next Generation Republicans will be the "Ron Paul Party" (AmConMag)
Democrats and Republicans, a generation from now
Posted on October 21st, 2009 by David Lindsay
A generation from now, the Democrats will be different but recognizable, the heirs and person of Barack Obama. But the Republicans will be completely different, the heirs of the late Ron Paul, never President despite his Nobel Peace Prize
With the long-ago passage of universal public healthcare, the old Republicans will finally have run out of anything to say, having sold the paleocon pass on trade and war to Obama, and everyone having seen through their con trick on abortion. So the people with things to say will have set about replacing them, especially after Palin lost every state in 2012. It is not unusual for parties to define themselves against their own past Leaders. The Tories over here are currently doing so. If Labour wants to survive, then it will have to do so, too. And in a generation’s time, both American parties will be defined against George Bush, which in the Democrats’ case will also mean against Bill Clinton. The nomination of Barack rather than Hillary was the beginning of that process. This Administration is the definitive break with NAFTA, with GATT, and with the bombing to smithereens of here, there and everywhere.
Of the Barack Obama Party and the Ron Paul Party, for which are they going to vote, and why? It would take a heart of stone not to laugh.

A generation from now
there will be no parties, no voting, a reduced population and a reduced standard of living. I hope that I am wrong and that it is not to late to put the Constitution and Bill of Rights in the fore front and make America truly for the People.
