On a gun forum which I sue frequently, the news that the NRA has endorsed a sole democrat politician for this years elections has drawn the ire of many forum members. The thing is that the forum members who oppose the NRA having done so probably are, in my estimation, using the same basic method of how they have gone about deciding to oppose the NRA on this issue; that method was, by my guess, to base their decision on a single issue. In this case that would be that the forum users disagree with the NRA based solely on the fact that the politician is a democrat and thus must be opposed. Of course, I think the NRA's single issue used to by them to decide to endorse her was something different, her support of the right to keep and bear arms, but the method of using only a single issue to make their decision is the same.
The thing is,
it is not a single issue situation, one has to consider all of the other
issues which she supported and voted for in addition to those she
openly opposed and voted against in order to make a wise decision as to whether to support or oppose the NRA's endorsement of her. I am pretty certain though, the NRA
bases the political endorsements they give to politicians on only one
issue, the RKBA or at least in the great part upon that lone issue. In that regard, many in the gun forum's thread discussing this seem to be of the
same ilk, as is the mindset of other conservative who oppose the NRA's endorsement of her, as far as how they are going about judging the NRA. By that I mean they
evidently are basing their dislike of the NRA's endorsement of
congresswoman Mary Peltola, D–Alaska (more at the source) on a single issue when there is no
doubt one issue does not make up the platforms of most politicians nor
the ideals of most voters.At least I think not of logical voters in
most elections. If this lady is consistently one who votes more
conservatively or at least logically and is not woke nor a DEI selection by voters,
then maybe she deserves not only an A+ from the NRA but the support of
those in the Rebooblican Party who currently oppose her, having received
the nod from the NRA, just because she is a registered Demonkrat.
I
had been thinking, just in the last couple of weeks of registering as a
Demonkrat; that just so I could vote in the Demonkrat primaries - the
ones that should have been held with little delay after the likes of Schumer, Pelosi, Harris and others seemingly conspired to boot out
Biden. Let's face it, my (any any other voters) due process as a voter may have been violated by
them not allowing voters the opportunity to vote for their candidate of
choice to replace Biden on the ticket. I would have voted for almost
anyone other than Harris; my vote probably would have come to be a write in vote or Biden (it
would be great if dems did that en masse, voted for Biden in the new
primary (that should have been held) and then Biden would have wound up with more
votes than Harris. You may think it great that she was appointed by the
Dems and is running against Trump but I think a leftist of lesser degree
would be easier for Trump to defeat; and the easiest would have been Biden - easily accomplished, as I said, by
way of write in votes for Biden.
Now,
I am not very religious; although, sometimes I wonder if I am more
religious than I think and at other times ponder whether or not I am
religious at all. Yet, I do embrace several, or I suppose it is actually many, Christian morals, philosophies, ideals and etiquette and live most of my
life with them as guidelines along with some of the same from a few other
religions and or lay philosophies of some who are agnostic or not
religious at all. In general, I think I live my life by trying to do the
right things much more frequently than not. Despite that, I have as of late found
myself sort of praying to God (if there is one), or the Gods if more than
one (the early Christians number one way into the hearts of those of
other faiths to win them over, I think, was mainly the fact that despite
claiming there was only one God, they kind of sort of almost practiced a
religion that was polytheism in a way never seen before because their
one God was also three Gods all miraculously being one and the same), Nature, the Force or whatever powers that may be that Harris does not defeat The Donald and then wind up destroying outr great nation and I base my prayers on several issues. In
the case of the upcoming election while the one issue of the RKBA is
extremely important to me, I still believe candidates need be judged on several issues and have their voting records and their
overall politics scrutinized by a multitude of
examiners, the voters, just to assure their platform and possibly prior behavior agree
with those types of essentially Judaeo-Christian and other religion's
ideals before anyone decides to give them a shining endorsement or their
vote.
It is much the same
when deciding whom not to support and voting against someone, for instance Harris. There are many points I can think of why one should not vote for Harris.
Those being the disaster of the essentially open border, her abject
disrespect for the law when it came to what I think was post G. Floyd
terrorism practiced by BLM and ANTIFA among others, her extreme
disrespect for law enforcers as I see it based upon her thinking
defunding the police was a good idea and I believe she probably still
thinks it, her seeming belief that riots involving those groups were
peaceful protests, an alleged large number of race based convictions of
black men for minor marijuana infractions when she was a prosecutor, my belief she is a racist, her playing all sides against the middle by claiming at
different times to be of different races, her failure as Border Czar, the failing economy, her anti-RKBA stance, her
poor judgement as in her selection of her running mate- even many dems
agree on that, her all too often senseless babble that she repeatedly
regurgitates, her inability to get her point across to make anyone
understand what she actually means when speaking about the issues (this has been a
long time ploy of leftists leaving it to their followers to decide
the meaning of her babble for themselves thus getting self satisfaction
even if their interpretations are very different than one anothers in
the dem party - keeps everyone happy when they all can make believe they
got it right), her seeming frequent inability to finish making a point
about something serious without breaking out into a wild cackle, her
very apparent lack of knowledge on subjects about which she is
interviewed or about which she is making a statement, her evident lies about the competency of Joe Biden.
All
that said, I cannot understand why anyone who is acting rationally
would vote for her. Instead I see a multitude of mindless adherents who
will vote for her because they believe she would be the first woman
president and sex is their one issue, she would be the first black woman
president and race and sex are what does it for them or simply race alone is enough,
she would be the first person of Asian descent and her ancestry, race and
ethnicity does it for other voters. I prefer to base my distaste for her
on multiple issues: first of all that she is the selection of the deep state within
the Demonkrat party and thus her candidacy was not put to a vote and
deprived other candidates of a fair chance and also deprived the voters of the
opportunity to make the selection, that she goes along with how she was
selected as the candidate, she seems to support late term abortion, she
is anti-RKBA, she did nothing to get the economy out of the mess it is
in but supported Bidenomics that caused the economy to falter, that she
evidently lied about Bidens mental acuity, that she apparently lied
about her support of Biden as the dem candidate, that she speaks in
senseless riddles or babble, that she seems very uninformed and unknowledgeable about major issues, opposes Donald Trump and has
seemingly expressed the same hatred for him as other mindless Demonkrats by which they hate him so much they'd do anything to
prevent him from being elected again - even supporting his assassination, that she plays both sides against
the middle in the Israel versus Hamas war... The list goes on and on but
those multiple issues I just presented are more than enough reason for
me never to vote for Harris and probably for me to never vote for a
Demonkrat ever again because it seems the great majority of the party's members are
actually functioning irrationally when it comes to politics.
While
I tend to doubt it, maybe the NRA decided to endorse congresswoman Mary
Peltola, D–Alaska based upon multiple issues, after their scrutiny of her overall politics, as
opposed to doing so based upon a single issue. I certainly would hope voters do so, that is to consider many issues if not all of them even if the NRA maybe did not. I definitely wish they'd do so when it comes to whom they decide to cast their vote for president - Harris or Trump. If they do that, I think there is no way Trump can lose unless the election is rigged.
All the best,
Glenn B
