Okay this post is for anyone to post what they would like Chuck Baldwin to talk about. I will start off with one: corporations patenting pre-existing genetics. That's right there are corporations who are obtaining copyrights to plant genetics that were never copyrighted before because people assume that any plant that comes from nature is public domain. Also they are coming out with new biologically engineered plants that farmers have to obtain a license to grow their copyrighted plants then they charged a farmer for illegally using the plants when in a fact a seed from another farm was blown by the wind to their land.

Also I want to know his position on drug wars and whether or not he agrees with the Constitution Party platform against gambling.

What is Chuck's position on jobs? A friend of mine who has been laid off and out of work for a long time wanted me to ask that.

Quotes:

"Gone, too, is the NAFTA superhighway. And for that matter, I would lead the United States out of NAFTA and CAFTA altogether. And any prospect for the FTAA would be dead as well.

"I oppose all international trade agreements which have the effect of diminishing America's economic self-sufficiency and of exporting jobs, the loss of which impoverishes American families, undermines American communities, and diminishes America's capacity for economic self-reliance, and the provision of national defense.

"We see our country and its workers as much more than bargaining chips for multinational corporations and international banks in their ill-conceived and evil New World Order. At every turn I will stand up for the economic security and well being of the American people and for the independence and sovereignty of our American republic."

Seven Principles of the Constitution Party are:

1. Life: For all human beings, from conception to natural death;
2. Liberty: Freedom of conscience and actions for the self-governed individual;
3. Family: One husband and one wife with their children as divinely instituted;
4. Property: Each individual's right to own and steward personal property without government burden;
5. Constitution: and Bill of Rights interpreted according to the actual intent of the Founding Fathers;
6. States' Rights: Everything not specifically delegated by the Constitution to the federal government is reserved for the state and local jurisdictions;
7. American Sovereignty: American government committed to the protection of the borders, trade, and common defense of Americans, and not entangled in foreign alliances.

How about genetic modification - plants, animals and humans.

Chuck Baldwin should really talk about the flaws in the electronic voting machine and how many experts have testified that those machines can be hacked. When Chuck Baldwin wins this election the Democrats and Republicans will try to rig the election results so he better warn people first about this.

No political party is rigging elections...
im sure that private operatives are...
but the stakes are two high, for two party's of so much power,
to risk that for a few million votes, which they could pick up in 4 years if they lose.

Anyone know the answer to this? I'm updating my election guide to add Mr. Baldwin, and have accumulated the following:

The Constitution Party's platform opposes gaming. It says: "Gambling promotes an increase in crime, destruction of family values, and a decline in the moral fiber of our country. We are opposed to government sponsorship, involvement in, or promotion of gambling, such as lotteries, or subsidization of Native American casinos in the name of economic development. We call for the repeal of federal legislation that usurps state and local authority regarding authorization and regulation of tribal casinos in the states."

Baldwin has made a number of similar statements:

http://www.constitutionparty.net/news_print.php?aid=36 : "Can you imagine a nation without an A.C.L.U. or a N.E.A.? Can you imagine a country that did not legally murder its own unborn children and that would not pander to sexual deviants and criminals? Can you imagine a country without legalized gambling? Can you imagine a nation with strong state governments and an unobtrusive federal government?" Keep in mind that he didn't write, "Can you imagine a country where individuals each chose of their free will to not gamble". Rather, he wrote, "Can you imagine a country without legalized gambling". That's the key. He's imaging (and advocating) a country where the majority collectively assert rights over individuals in the area of all gaming. So long as this is at the state level and not the federal, Baldwin is happy.

From http://www.newswithviews.com/baldwin/baldwin239.htm , by Baldwin: "George Barna summarized his findings by saying, "Faith makes very little difference in their [Christians] lives: believers do not train their children to think or act differently [from the world]. It's no wonder that they [Christian children] grow up to be just as involved in gambling, excessive drinking, and any other unbiblical behavior as everyone else."

From http://www.newswithviews.com/baldwin/baldwin380.htm : "Can you imagine a nation without an A.C.L.U. or a N.E.A.? Can you imagine a country that did not legally murder its own unborn children and that would not pander to sexual deviants or criminals? Can you imagine a country that did not glorify, much less sponsor, gambling? Can you imagine a nation with strong state governments and a limited federal government?"

From http://www.theconservativevoice.com/arti...l?id=12718 : "Beyond that, our nation has become addicted, yes, even obsessed, with sports, leisure, and gambling! Sports celebrities are more than icons, they are gods! Leisure is more than a pastime, it is the greatest motivation for living. It seems that all people dream about is having the financial ability to retire. By retirement they mean living a life without responsibility, duty, or obligation. In other words, a life of total self-absorption. And since most are unwilling or even incapable of earning such a life, gambling is the preferred method of obtaining this ultimate life of irresponsibility."

I appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks!

I like Chuck Baldwin on a number of issues, but the main thing I want to know about him and all the other presidential candidates is what his position on the Federal Reserve is. This monster needs to be abolished ASAP! I cannot take ANY presidential candate seriously unless I hear him clearly state that he would abolish the Fed. So far, only Ron Paul has satisfied this requirement.

I believe Chuck Baldwin is the only nominee to take that position. Bob Barr would make it a long term goal but is not as unequivocal about it as either Dr. Paul or Pastor Baldwin. McCain, Obama, Nader and McKinney all LOVE the Fed.
