Greetings to all. I am an independent candidate for President in the 2008 election. That decision was made due to the fact that I believe both parties have abandoned the Constitution and duped the American people into accepting a lie. The lie is that we have no other choice, nowhere else to go, and we must therefore always vote the lesser of two evils. The tactic used is the oldest one of all, repeating the lie again and again until it becomes accepted as true. The DEM/GOP/MSM propaganda machines have been very successful, and the result has been a steady accruing of power by the two parties and increased partisanship in the congress. The benefit to our nation - none! I hope to meet more likeminded, independent thinking folks here and look forward to engaging in well thought out discussions about our great nation and its future. If you are interested, I do have a website, joeolivaforpresident.org. I hope you will take some time and visit. Your comments and thoughts are always welcome. My wife and I live on Long Island, with our two dogs, two cats and one bird.
