Many Americans expected change with the new Democratic-controlled Congress but few believe change has occurred. Polls have suggested that the new congress has the same or lower approval ratings than President Bush.

I feel such gratitude toward Congressman Ron Paul for his comments during the Republican presidential debate that I just might vote for guy. You sure as hell don't hear Democrats talking like that.

He's cashing in on 9/11, working with Karl Rove's henchmen and in cahoots with a Swift Boat-style attack on Hillary. By all accounts, he's a perfect choice to uphold the legacy of George W. Bush.

Understand this: Lesser evil voting is not courageous. It is a cowardly surrender to the disappointing two-party status quo. Voters have some remarkable opportunities to transform fine minor candidates into competitive major candidates - more honest and trustworthy people like Ron Paul, Mike Gravel and Dennis Kucinich, for example.

This has been quite the week to learn about the foreign policy vision--or lack of vision--for leading presidential contenders on both sides of the aisle.

When one candidate, Ron Paul, moves and speaks against the grain of both liberal and neo-conservative politicians, we wonder about this person. Some have called him a crackpot extremist because he doesn't fit their image of a "progressive" president. Why I'm impressed by Ron Paul? In one word: Integrity.

There's just one problem: Fred Thompson is not a conservative. He just plays one on TV.

if you are as disgusted as most people are with the clowns running for office, then think before you repeat the mantra that it's everyone's duty to go vote. Maybe if the clowns starting getting only 10 or 15 percent turnout, more responsible people would go back into politics.

Against his doctor's advice, a stooped and feeble state Sen. Mario Gallegos Jr. (D) arrives at the Texas Capitol each day, just to make sure his chamber does not take up a bill that would require voters to produce identification at the polls.

One assumes that Ron Paul knows he is not going to be the next president of the United States - or even the next Republican nominee. Yet the Texas congressman is campaigning hard, aiming particular ire and fire at Rudy Giuliani.

The courts are not the only branch responsible for upholding the Constitution. Indeed, the president's decisions -- such as whether to conduct surveillance of terrorist suspects without warrants, support a constitutional amendment on gay marriage and continue support for faith-based charitable organizations -- in large measure determine the constit

We can't count on the U.S. Constitution to protect the election process. The Constitution does not explicitly protect the right to vote, and the conservative majority on the Rehnquist and Roberts courts has proved friendly to anti-turnout measures.

Giuliani rode his prosecutions of the rich to the NYC mayoralty, just as he rode 9/11 to become a GOP presidential candidate. Giuliani 's career never served justice; it served his personal ambition, his ego. That a person so short on integrity could become a candidate for president is a damning indictment of the US political system.

The American People should contact their various legislators, remind them of their oath, and inform them that they will not receive another vote unless they do their duty and uphold the Constitution they promised to protect and defend.

since it's a Republican president and his Congressional enablers who have treated their oath-taking -- their swearing to defend the Constitution, to take care to enforce the laws -- like a horny teenager at an abstinence-only ring ceremony -- it's Republicans in particular who should be forced by these debates, by the media, and by the public to an

In an age of big money, high-pressure politics, maybe that is just naÃ;¯ve. Maybe simple truth is a dead-end strategy. But how long has it been since somebody actually tried it? Think about it Mr. Giuliani. It just might work.
