Our first far right 3rd party candidate jumps into the 2012 Presidential race.

[aaaaaa5a]

Radio talk show host Laurie Roth says she will be running for the Presidency on the American Independent Party Ticket.








From the article linked below.


"Laurie Roth from Washington state is running not as a Republican, but as a self-described patriot and conservative on the American Independent Party ticket. She says she's already on the ballot in California, and will take steps to make sure her name is listed in the other 49 states."


Here is her agenda.

Roth says the president forced an unconstitutional health-care bill, sued and stood against his own governors, threatened and targeted coal plants for closure, breached the War Powers Act of 1973 by putting America into an illegal war in Libya, insulted and turned against Israel, and has failed to secure the nation's borders.

As far as her goals as president, Roth says, "I will overhaul our entire tax system."

She's looking to abolish all current taxes and institute a federal 2 percent point-of-purchase consumption tax she believes will create millions of jobs.

"No group will be exempt," she says, claiming annual collected revenues would be in the range of $10 to $20 trillion, "while citizens are liberated from massive, controlling tax oppression."

All other taxes on income, payroll, capital gains, gasoline, property and estates would be eradicated under her plan.

Another pledge by Roth is to become totally energy independent in four years.

"America will be the largest exporter of energy in the world," says Roth. "Disconnect from OPEC. Employ 20 million people in energy infrastructure jobs natural gas, oil, nuclear, solar and alternative fuels."

Roth also says she's looking to restore America's international relationships and image, institute fair-trade agreements and stand against Islamic fundamentalism and radicalism.



She's also unabashedly promoting Judeo-Christian values.

"This includes our nation's historical strength from God and the Holy Bible – including Christian principles – prayer, freedom, exceptionalism and supporting a movement away from regulation, taxation and litigation. Those who disagree are not assailed."

My take: The more right wing third party candidates the better!

[proud2BlibKansan]

1. Bring them ON!!!

K&R

[roguevalley]

18. 13-20 trillion. what a tool. she is sipping something delusional.

[orpupilofnature57]

2. Ann Coldturd for VP??

[aaaaaa5a]

3. Or maybe Michelle Malkin. LOL

[treestar]

4. I'm running for President

It seems to be all you have to say to get your 15 minutes of fame.

[orwell]

5. Epic Fail...

She's looking to abolish all current taxes and institute a federal 2 percent point-of-purchase consumption tax she believes will create millions of jobs.

"No group will be exempt," she says, claiming annual collected revenues would be in the range of $10 to $20 trillion, "while citizens are liberated from massive, controlling tax oppression."

A 2% consumption tax generates 10 to 20 trillion? WTF is this idiot smoking and can I have some...

:rofl:

[Bjorn Against]

11. Of course it would generate 10 to 20 trillion, you just have to give it a couple centuries

[boppers]

13. Here's how it works:

Farmer buys seed for a crop. 2%.
Mill purchases seed. 2%
Bakery purchases flour. 2%
Restaurant purchases buns. 2%
Restaurant sells hamburger. 2%

On that hamburger purchase, you will be paying 2% in direct taxes, but every ingredient will have been taxed all the way back to its origins, every time it changed hands. Think about some thing with a huge supply chain, say an automobile.... every part would have a 2% tax added to its cost, for all but the most vertical industries and products.

[LiberalFighter]

6. She is not all there.

[Tarheel_Dem]

7. May she get all the coverage and support her heart desires. (nt)

[TheWraith]

8. $10 to $20 trillion?

How little research does she have to have done to say something like that, when you consider the fact that the ENTIRE GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT of the United States is only $14 trillion a year? She's literally suggesting that the government would take all the money in the US and then some.

[unblock]

9. the tax cut will cause the economy to boom to at least $1 quadrillion, silly!

so $20 trillion is the 2%.

duh!

:evilgrin:

[eppur_se_muova]

10. Sign those petitions! Get her on the ballot in your state! nt

[MilesColtrane]

12. Delusional

But, some people go for that shit.

[Fantastic Anarchist]

14. Who the fuck is she?

She watches NASCAR, too. Anyone who can be dazzled by cars going in circles shouldn't be president.

Oh, plus all of her pledges suck, and she's a birther? Case closed. She's a loser.

[harun]

15. Well I am sure Congress will get right on that after you're elected missy.

Seeing as they are getting so much done now.

[zbdent]

16. good for her ...

encourage your local TEA Party activists to vote for her, instead of the "lamestream" Republican candidates ...

[JoePhilly]

17. You'll have the freedom to pray to her God ... sweet!

[Bluenorthwest]

20. Nothing new there, I currently have the freedom to not marry

because of other politicians 'God in the Mix' delusions. So that aspect of this nutter is common ground with other nutters in politics, really. I mean, you understand that ALL of the dogma spouting bigots are just as crazed as this one, don't you? There is no mitigation for crazy bigotry. None.

[Ikonoklast]

21. You'll be comfortable in the Re-education Camps.

Don't worry, her god loves everyone, but some not as much as others.

[JoePhilly]

22. Any time that God is the foundation of what they push, it needs to be rejected.

Well ... I could not care less about their "In God we Trust" nonsense. Unless it is to mock them for "masturbating" in public.

When these right wing whack jobs invoke the bible, they generally tend to demonstrate an amazing misunderstanding of everything Jesus is alleged to have said.

[Ter]

19. Is she a paleo-con?

Like Pat Buchanan?

[Skittles]

23. "putting America into an illegal war in Libya"

I'm assuming Iraq gets a big pass from her wingnut hypocrite ass

[Ter]

24. Maybe not

She sounds like a paleo-con to me (Pat Buchanan). The ultra-right paleo-con Constitution Party is also very anti-war.

[Skittles]

25. then why no mention?

[krabigirl]

27. both sides love war if it's "their guy" (or girl) pushing it.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

26. Her plan for vthe economy sounds whackier than Cain's 9-9-9 plan

She wants to do away with income tax, payroll tax, and every other kind of tax except for a consumption tax. This sounds like a giant national sales tax that will hit the poor the hardest and leave the billionaires paying relatively little. How would this plan fund a complex and giant federal government? What would happen to social security and medicare? This time, if Romney wins the nomination, we just might see a 3rd party candidate. But this one sounds even crazier than the Republicans and I don't see this degree of extremism winning much support. But then I've misjudged the degree of insanity of the Tea Party before.

[blkmusclmachine]

28. Didn't these ppl. used to be called the "Constitution Party"?

A pack of God-State Theocrats. I'm pretty sure they'd like to remake the US into the King James version of Iran. Burkas included.

[libinnyandia]

29. God is against deregulation

He's the originak regulator- thats why we have the 10 commandments.
