Chuck Baldwin won the presidential nomination (http://primebuzz.kcstar.com/?q=node/11314) today for the Constitution Party. Baldwin, a Baptist minister from Florida, bested Alan Keyes for the nomination.
I do not agree with some of Baldwin's positions, like international isolationism, but many of his other positions are appealing, including his disdain for the United Nations. Because I don't entirely trust McCain, I plan to follow Baldwin's campaign as a possible alternative.
In his acceptance speech, Baldwin said his presidency would result in the ending of illegal immigration, abortion, the streamlining of the federal government, the tapping of oil reserves in Alaska and withdrawal from Iraq.
"We will stop the international meddling...this international empire-building," Baldwin said.
When he takes office, Baldwin said, "The new world order comes crashing down!"
He pledged not only to pull out of the United Nations, but to push the international organization out of New York.
"The U.N. is going to have to find themselves another (home) because their rent is up in New York City," he said.
He said he would phase out the Internal Revenue Service and end the paying of personal income taxes. He said the country should return to the gold standard.
Home schoolers, he said, would have the best friend they ever had in the White House.
