be very careful with this guy!

(shady .... a politician)

Of the four that gets the

Of the four that gets the most mention as 2012 GOP candidates, Sanford has BY FAR the most potential. The others, Palin, Jindal and Romney are all severely lacking.

The GOP is largely split between "values/culture" voters, and economic ones. Given the current, and near future, state of the economy, the party needs to run an economy candidate in 2012. That rules out both Palin and Jindal, as they're largely "values" conservatives.

Romney has strong "economy" appeal, but is a classic neo/compassionate/big government conservative. Pro bailouts, pro stimulus, pro pretty much the entire Keynesian spaghetti soup of government sponsored meddling, that has, and is, brought the country to its current sorry state.

Also, it would be one thing if Romney used Massachusetts Care in a campaign to showcase his ability to govern in a bipartisan fashion. But he actually seems to think it is a good model for America at large. Government run health care! By a prospective GOP candidate. So, he's off the table for anyone considering themselves a conservative.

Which leaves Sanford out of the current top 4. And Sanford has potential. Like all somewhat pragmatic politicos, he has in no way nailed down a detailed program yet; as what he will eventually, if at all, campaign on will largely depend on what he perceives to appeal to his target voters come campaign season. But his history shows someone who is at least amendable to shift the GOP clearly in the right direction. Away from the flag waving rah-rah'ism of the recent past, and towards a party of fiscal responsibility and smaller government.

Of course he's no Paul, but then again, unless things change rather drastically over the next three years, no pragmatic politician will want to emulate someone who in the end only got a few percent of the primary vote. For better or worse, the GOP needs to at least make a serious effort to collect enough votes to get rid of the Obamas. Which means some vote whoring at the expense of principles is to be expected.

Gary Johnson seems a more obvious libertarian as well, but he's never really mentioned as a likely frontrunner. If both of them, or all three if Paul runs again, do end up running in the primaries, I hope they will have the sense to agree that whoever of them gets less votes, will, if necessary, throw his delegates behind the one with the most. That way they won't split the small government vote, and people can vote their conscience, instead of playing tactics.

Regardless, Sanford at least tentatively seems good enough to warrant voting for, even if he, compared to Paul, might only be a 'least of evils'. He's far better than either McCain was, or what the other three current 'top contenders' are. And one heck of an improvement over the looters currently holding court in our Capital.

The only time I would vote

The only time I would vote for Sanford is in the GOP primary IF and ONLY IF Ron Paul or Gary Johnson do not run and Jesse Ventura does not plan to run in the general election.

Ventura 2012

Cha Ching!

3 names there - RP, Gary Johnson and Jesse Ventura

lets get started with those!

you can have Sanford and all the rest -

Support Independents and those who follow the RP philospophy completely

Non-Interventionsim ..... No Empire Building

do you hear me Mark Sanford ......?

Problem is, RP has stated

Problem is, RP has stated he's unlikely to run again and Ventura is too far removed from the GOP to ever be anything more than a vanity candidate. Besides, if he runs, it will be as an independent, so supporting him in no way precludes supporting Sanford in the GOP primaries.

Gary Johnson has not specifically ruled out a run, but has, as far as I know, not given any indication this is something he's planning on doing.

Truth to be told, neither has Sanford. But lots and lots of people within the GOP is pushing Sanford, so, given some support, a run from him is a lot more likely.

And the other candidates currently being 'primed', Palin, Romney and Jindal, and perhaps Jeb, are all a lot less acceptable than Sanford is. With the possible exception of a resurgent Romney, I suspect they are a lot less likely to fare well against Obama as well.

So, at least consider supporting Sanford's rise within the context of the mainstream GOP. Having the GOP machine behind Sanford is a lot better than having it behind any of the other likely candidates.

In addition, no political platform for a 2012 run is fixed yet. Exactly what platform an ambitious candidate runs on, will depend on what support he perceives he is able get. And Sanford is someone who is not so far ideologically removed from Paul that he could not bend quite some ways in our direction if he perceives enough votes were available here. This of course, swings both ways. If we, already, 3 years early, dismisses him out of hand, he may have no choice but to search for other constituencies.

So I say we should give him all the encouragement we can, even if we eventually do end up with a 'better' candidate, like Paul, come primary time; or if we end up voting independent in the general election.

I wouldn't dismiss him just yet, either.

NOT a wishful thinking, but reading his body language suggests that he is at worst conflicted, and at best, seem actually quite oblivious.

Don't know if you've ever watched Murderdoch's Fox' latest TV series, Lie to Me. The film is based on psychologist Paul Ekman's therories on facial signals and body language. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Ekman

While I do NOT believe Paul Ekman's theories should be taught to LEO or military, as they've been erroneously deployed in israel to what can best be described as 'guestimating' terrorists by reading their nervousness as a cue; I don't know any sane human being who'd enjoy being isolated in a room with armed militant thugs wearing badges interrogating you, there are some credence to his theories. Humans have been 'reading' and intuiting each other's body languages for as long as we've been walking the earth. Just ask numerous failed relationships, or successful or unsuccessful entrepreneurs, and business people who routinely deal with a diverse range of personalities, every day. Anyone who's ever worked retail, or sales know what I' talking about.

The problem emerges when it becomes codified as they're beginning to do, with our own TSA, and companies involved in privacy violation technology such as RFID, facial recognition, and any other biometrics.
As you all know, any time you give an inherently tyrannical institution power, they'll ABUSE it, 10000% of the time. It will be invariably used as a tool of oppression, not to mention the fact that reading facial signals and body language is an ART, more than a technical science, which can be taught and repeated over and over again for institutional purposes like govt or law enforcement.

So unless Sanford is a DeNiro caliber actor, which I HIGHLY doubt, I would not dismiss him as a sycophantic minion of the New World Order, just yet.

Granted, just because he speaks highly of our GOOD DOCTOR, does not automatically qualify him as an ally, but in the same token, NOR does it qualify him as an ardent minion of the NWO, even if he did, indeed attend the Bilderberg Conference in Chantilly, VA in 2008, at the request of a friend. I'm sure he's heard of them around conservative circles, and were curious.

Who knows, we may be able to turn him into a true ALLY, instead of an enemy. For one thing, I've never seen ANYONE on Daniel Estulin or Jim Tucker provided list of annual Bilderberg attendees EVER ANSWER ANYONE from the alternative press, the Truth Movement, or the Patriot Movement, for the length that SC C.H.A.N.G.E has been able to. So for that I was actually quite surprised. Whether he's actively trying to maintain some semblance of our support remains to be seen.

But for one thing, his past actions, does put him in the plus column for me. He is by far, next to Dr.Ronald Ernest (really folks, his real middle name means 'sincere & honest,' and he lives up to it, everyday!) Paul, Jesse Ventura, and soon to be Senator Rand Paul, I've yet to see another poliko with more liberty minded voting record, thus far.

I always ask the same internal question when I come upon a anyone working within the NWO's sphere of influence: if I were a freedom fighter in Vichy France during WWII, and I came across a French woman hustling Nazi soldiers, or a bar owner that Nazis frequented to let their douchebagging hair down, would I immediately assume the woman or the bar owner to be enemy-collaborators, or possible allies?

Historical documents tell us that there were numerous double, or even triple agents (an agent of one side 'acting' like a double agent}, on both sides. Such example is best illustrated in a Charlize Theron film, "Head in the Clouds." She plays a double agent, but NO ONE knows until near end of the film. And when she's caught injured with local contact missing, no one is there to vouch for her. Everyone should check it out, if not but to see her and Penelope Cruz on the screen concurrently in the same frame. But, even without the element of intrigue, are we SO certain that Mark Sanford is a shill?

Just being cautious here, that we don't assume anything about anybody without concrete facts. Throwing accusations about people's allegiance is ALWAYS dangerous to individual freedoms and liberty, especially against someone who does have some verifiable public record of doing otherwise, like Sanford. However, if Estulin's source can verify Sanford's real hierarchy to be otherwise in the Bilderbergs, of course that changes things, but until then, I'll keep my guard up, but not concretely assume.

Some of you are too much....

So just attending the Bilderberg meeting as a guest disqualifies you? WTF? If you really think the Bilderberg Group is so nefarious, wouldn't you want to attend and see what they are up to?

And Sanford was not one of the first people to endorse McCain. To the contrary, he was one of the last elected Republicans to do so. The McCain people begged him to do so earlier and tried to bribe him by suggesting they'd put him on the VP short list and he reportedly responded by saying, "I'm already on your shortlist". When he finally did endorse McCain, after McCain had mathematically wrapped up the nomination, he did so by just sending out a press release.

You make good some real good points

But the bottom line is this: Sanford is not even close to being a libertarian. He is a conservative. I don't think I will give him any support.

"Not even close to being a libertarian"?

From what I understand, his voting record in Congress was virtually identical to Dr. Paul's.

Sanford has done an incredible job sticking to his principles. He is governor. He has an entire state to manage. That is completely different from being a legislator.

Well, he supports

the two wars. Also, I wonder if he supported the Patriot Act? I guess he wouldn't have voted on it being a governor. But I wonder if he supports it ideologically.

He is opposed to pre-emptive

He is opposed to pre-emptive war.

So, you are saying that he was opposed...

to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars? I thought he supported them, but I might be wrong. That would be a pleasant surprise.

Do you have any links where he opposes them?
According to Eric Dondero, Mark is "known to be a staunch support of the War on Terror."

And I remember, that video of him from a few weeks ago (from Hannity I think) where he says how he pretty much deferred questions of foreign policy to Newt Ginrich back in his Congress days.

Ron Paul voted for

Ron Paul voted for authorization to go into Afghanistan.

On Iraq, I don't believe he is on record one way or another, but he has stated that is against pre-emptive war.

There are many Ron Paul supporters who would might be more willing to support Mark Sanford.

reply

Ron Paul voted for authorization to go into Afghanistan.

That's true. He shouldn't have tho. He should have known that the operation wouldn't be "kept limited" to the specific constraints of the resolution that he voted 'yes' for.
As the great Harry Browne once said: "The last thing you should ever do is take a politician's word that this country is in danger."

On Iraq, I don't believe he is on record one way or another, but he has stated that is against pre-emptive war.

Could he be trying to sway votes his way by using that rhetoric? I definitely think so.

There are many Ron Paul supporters who would might be more willing to support Mark Sanford.

Probably. He's better than a Lindsey Graham type that's for sure. But to say that he is close to being a libertarian is false I would argue.

Mark Sanford is a Bilderberg attendee

Last year in 2008 Mark Sanford was invited to go to the Bilderberg 2008 Meeting and did indeed go. He admits it on video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNtuFERbbPY

He is in violation of the Logan Act for doing this....He plays ignorance in the interview, but he might well of just been an idiot when going to the meetings and didn't really know about the group. You can't really tell where he stands on the group itself but it is refreshing for an attendee to discuss the topics of the meetings. MANY others from the USA have attended, including...

Henry Kissinger / Recently said that Obama has been primed for the NWO
Ben Bernanke / Federal Reserve Chairman
Timothy Geithner / US Secretary of the Treasury
Henry M Paulson / US Secretary of the Treasury
Kathleen Sibelius / Nominee for Secretary of Human Health
Bill Clinton
Chris Dodd
Tom Daschel
Diane Feinstein
Richard Haas / President, Council on Foreign Relations
George Soros

I would not take this guy seriously about true libertarian ideals just yet. I think he may just be trying to appeal to "our" crowd. Only time will tell though. Just thought I'd mention this.

Sanford is a Shill

I just watched the bilderberg interview with Sanford. Mark Sanford is a shill for the New world Order, don't trust him. He will talk the talk but he is not one of us.

Wouldn't dismiss him, just yet. [some typos fixed from previous]

NOT a wishful thinking, but reading his body language suggests that he is at worst conflicted, and at best, seem actually quite oblivious.

Don't know if you've ever watched Murderdoch FOX's latest TV series, "Lie to Me." The show is based on psychologist Paul Ekman's theories on reading human facial signals and body language. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Ekman

Humans have been 'reading' and intuiting each other's body languages for as long as we've been walking the earth. Just ask numerous failed relationships, or successful or unsuccessful entrepreneurs, and business people who routinely deal with a diverse range of personalities, every day.

It will be invariably used as a tool of oppression, not to mention the fact that reading facial signals and body language is an ART, more than a technical science, which can be taught and repeated over and over again for institutional purposes like govt or "law enforcement."

Really, EVERYONE should have their head examined if they thought giving cops the right to taser a citizen for mere compliance was a good idea. Like guns, as inanimate objects, Tasers, in it of themselves are NOT a problem. However, I am FIRMLY of the mind that it is an inherently a MORE dangerous device than a gun, because the outcome is perceived to be much less lethal which dictates that Statist MORONS & minion idiots will abuse it more, WILLFULLY, as pulling a trigger on a Glock23 has FAR more obvious consequences for a pimple faced police academy grad than pulling trigger on a "product" that looks like a fancy $1000 sparky flashlight with a pistol grip.

To make matters worse, in every ILLEGAL taser case, cops are ROUTINELY allowed to be held UNACCOUNTABLE and get away with it. I mean really, does any of us who live in a sane universe believe it's a rational excuse to be able to state publicly, and to the surviving family of the victim, 'um, gee, mam, I really confused my gun for a taser.' But it's happened more than just once: most notable being the BART thug Mehserle's MURDER of Oscar Grant, early this year.

But I digress, but only a bit. So unless Sanford is a DeNiro caliber actor, which I HIGHLY doubt, I would not dismiss him as a sycophantic minion of the New World Order, just yet.

Granted, just because he speaks highly of our GOOD DOCTOR, does not automatically qualify him as an ally, but in the same token, NOR does it qualify him as an ardent minion of the NWO, even if he did, indeed attend the Bilderberg Conference in Chantilly, VA in 2008, at the request of a friend.

So for that, I was actually quite surprised. Whether he's actively trying to maintain some semblance of our support remains to be seen.

He is by far, next to Dr.Ronald Ernest (really folks, his real middle name means 'sincere & honest,' and he lives up to it, everyday!)

Everyone should check it out, only if to see her and Penelope Cruz on screen concurrently in the same frame. But, even without the element of intrigue, are we SO certain that Mark Sanford is a shill?

What we can be certain is that Lindsey Graham IS an establishment goon, and an operative. Whether he is a significant minion of the NWO, is up for debate, but nonetheless he is a sycophantic THUG. What is even more alarming for this pro-torture douchebag, is that he used to be a Judge Advocate General, a.k.a. JAG, a govt lawyer or judge that handle military cases. That is both appalling and alarming, not to mention absurd. But as we've seen with all the torture apologists in BOTH oBUSHma's and village idiot's administration, like Bybee, no Statist govt illegality should surprise any of us anymore.

Just being cautious here, that we don't assume anything about anybody without concrete facts. Throwing accusations about people's allegiance is ALWAYS dangerous to individual freedoms and liberty, especially against someone who does have some verifiable public record of doing otherwise, like Mark Sanford.

Now how do you think

people like Jim Tucker and Alex Jones get their detailed info about the Bilderberg meetings every year, at a different place? Do you think they have some high tech listening device to listen to the conversations? No, they probably have one or more of the attendees that give them the info confidentially. Now is this person or persons who attend the Bilderburg meetings and give the info, evil? Hardly! Enough of this totalitarian mistrust generalizations and ad hominem attacks as being a so called shill.

Mark Sanford attended Ron Paul's Liberty caucus while he was in congress (you can see it in the wikipedia article) and Paul mentioned him along with Walter Williams as a possible VP candidate.

Another question to you and others to think about: if Mark Sanford would be this NW shill, why would he strongly oppose any bailout (e.g. the bailout that strengthen and enhance the NWO?)? Also in this interview he struck he as a very sincere, honest person. The issue I am more concerned about is that as a governor and earlier freshman congressman, he does not have a lot of foreign policy experience and may assume Gingrich's influence on this. For this and other reasons, I prefer Gary Johnson as Paul's VP. (I think Alex has stated that gary Johnson also attended Bilderberg years ago? Well, who did Gary Johnson enthusiastically endorse? Ron Paul).

Yup, focusing activism & truthsquadding for effect.

I'd concentrate more on confronting KNOWN minions of the NWO, or just plainly ARROGANT thugs like lindsey graham.

Douchebags like graham MUST be confronted EVERYWHERE there is light, to force them to scurry back to their cockroach abodes; need to put the likes of him in his place, as a public SERVANT, and NOT as a "leader" as so many of these civil servant morons who feed off our tax dollars and public trough love o delude.

Personally I would have had a few more choice words for lindsey, especially after listening him say some mindless 2nd grade B.S. like "I'm a winner pal." Gee, lindsey, how honest of you. Isn't if often that REAL LOSERS love telling themselves things that invoke images of man that they'd like to be, rather who they really are? Kinda like repeat-o-mantra. "I'm pretty. I'm special. I'm beautiful. Everyone must love me. How can they not?" Um, guess who rode on the "Little Yellow Bus" to school? No offense to the mentally challenged.

As we can all plainly see, the only mental affliction we see infecting America today are coming from massively delusional politikos, useless K-Street lobbyists, and wonks like Anna Marie Cox, former proprietor of the Wonkette, who made it a mission in their lives to trash our Good Doctor, solely to get ratings.

Of course, on top of that useless human fungus mentally defective degenerate list are the sycophantic-turd minions of the NWO gloablists, who actually delude that they'd be part of the billionaire and the trillionaire club, like the rockefellers(they were billionaires at the turn of the last century), only if they carry out their orders. I got one phrase for you idiots: Night of the Long Knives. Historically, would-be tyrants ALWAYS, first eliminate EVERYONE who helped them reach the initial stages of a coup, before they make the final move. And like it or not, history ALWAYS repeats itself.

Call it karma.

Liberty is Lovable!

I just can't imagine anyone saying "I love authority" or "I love slavery."

Bilderberg Interview

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNtuFERbbPY

Note that he doesn't talk about what was discussed at Bilderberg.

Thank you

dallasjustice, i see you already posted the interview with Sanford. I just posted it myself, sorry bout that. I wasn't trying to upstage you or anything, i just got carried away.

No Big Deal

I also think its interesting that everyone wants to be a Libertarian these days. For example: Mark Levin, Neal Boortz, etc. . . .

Of Course They Do

The GOP brand is crap...folks have only forgotten the DEMS crappy brand and will see it again soon also.

Libertarians, take the Tea Parties back... Don't let the GOP define you!

I don't know much about Sanford

but he seems reasonable enough.

In St. Louis

Dr. Paul talked about the many occasions he was the sole no vote in Congress. He said there was one congressperson that would come to him after the vote and ask him why he had voted the way he did. After a short time, Dr. Paul stated a second person started voting no as well. That representative was Mark Sanford. Take what you will from this bit of information.

Exactly!

Exactly!

i don't trust him

I don't trust Mark Sanford. Is he a member of CFR or Trilateral?

Keep your eyes and ears open. Sanford may be a shill.

I think

Barry Goldwater Jr. was also a member of the CFR. Does this mean he works against Dr. Paul? Who did he endorse and campaigned for? I have heard about the CFR already decades ago and thought about it. I think for many CFR members or at least some it is simply a bi-partisan exchange of ideas and policies outside the time in congress and maybe to get to know each other better. I do believe there is or may be a core group, also some in the smaller Bilderberg group, with a distinct NWO agenda. This does not mean all with the CFR adhere to this.

With the NWO it is about US_UK hemegony, right? Think about it, China, Russia, Japan etc. will be eventually economically stronger than the US and UK and China is moving much more free market. They are actually already better capitalists than Americans.

ok i get it...

Lindsay the irrelevent was setting Mark up for the 2012 run...
I might buy it if Ron doesn't run.
Bilderberg plan in the making?

Nope

I don't think you get it. Google liberty caucus and you will see Mark Sanford attended Ron Paul's Caucus already years ago, before he became governor and before Lindsay Graham even became a senator. Sanford strongly disagreed with the bailout, while graham endorsed TARP 1, while rejecting the others.

BTW: Have you noticed with the other views of CFLSC that graham said he is all in favor of the senate version of audit the fed?

pretty good... but I sort of

pretty good... but I sort of wish Sanford had called Graham out a little more... I mean, it is a nice change to not see people directly attacking each other, but at the same time, if leaders within the Republican party don't do more to step up and defend us/support us/our ideas, and condemn those who say we're not welcome, then our struggle will only persist.

Sanford hit a sore spot with me

When I hear anyone say "American experiment", I want to respond, "How dare you imply the USA was an experiement. The UN is the experiment and America is better off without being burdened to a UN experiment.

I feel that the word "experiment", especially coming form Libertarian/GOP is to prepare people to accept the American Experiment has failed.

So how about renewing the American Experiment?

http://www.yesmagazine.org/article.asp?ID=1004

It kind of was an experiment...

And not in a negative sense. It was an experiment because it was unique at the time... The idea of a republic, three branches of government, etc.

Experiments don't need to fail. But it was untested at the time.

NO

an experiment has a beginning and END and then an evaluation of what went right or wrong or indifferent. The US did not have to end. It was taken over by corruption, plain and simple, with mind control no less.

We need to take it back and make it right. Clean out the corruption. Pelosi and Kissinger would be two good places to start and then keep on keeping on.

Good Point

You called it on the definition of an experiment; however both are right in a sense. Just as the Constitution is a living document our nation and how it exists through time is a "living experiment" in which we start and end and evaluate what went wrong, right and indifferent. "Absolute corrupts absolutely...."

But lets be REAL, Pelosi and Kissinger are just a piece of the puzzle that is attempting to fleece us. The evil is on both sides of the aisle...point blank...Gonzalez, Cheney, and all and everyone who justifies illegal acts are criminals and should be breaking rocks themselves as well.

I guess Sanford is better than most

Thomas Jefferson once said, "The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground."

Well, I guess he called that one.

That's Too Much Like

voting for the lesser of two evils ..... (it's still evil)

Out with the Old Gaurd...

Sorry, this man and many put up as "leaders" in the GOP as well as the DEMS are and have been caught in too much hipocracy. Liberty is the success of innovative ideas, not the same old folks spitting what sounds good to them now.

Sorry all, I know y'all may not agree with me.... But it's time for term limitations on all political leaders from the smallest neighborhood association to the federal government.

Give me Liberty...not the same talking noise from the corporate media (ALL OF IT, FOX INCLUDED).

Good words

This is the sort of response that is needed to educate principled conservatives of the true meaning of "libertarian" - simply a lover of liberty.

to remind ourselves about Mark Sanford's shortcomings. I have cataloged him into the suspicious category. Can someone list the reasons why?

Bilderberg Attendance

That's all i got.

What more would you need?

I'd think attending the Bilderberger conference as a guest tells us all we need to know.
