CONSTITUTIONAL FREEDOM PARTY
by Tom Lineaweaver

Did you ever hear of this Party? I considered joining this Party and running for President. But, I read their platform, and it is very flawed. You can see it here: constfreparty.blogspot.com/2012/12/motto-constitution-is-not-instrument.html
How did I find this Party? Before forming Freedom USA Party, now United Constitution Party, I looked for other parties I could be comfortable in, and run for President in their Party. This is one of those parties. But, after reading their platform, I decided this is not the party for me.
The first item in their platform...
OUR JUDEO/CHRISTIAN HERITAGE:
While this nation is comprised of many different beliefs, we value the Christian heritage, which this nation was founded upon. We will not be made submissive to the secular/humanist agenda, which has pushed to remove any mention of Jesus Christ or symbols thereof from the public square. We recognize the rights of everyone to worship or not according to their own religious beliefs. If beliefs however step out of Constitutional bounds, they will not trump the Constitution. Ours is a Constitutional Republic. It has been a beacon of freedom for people all over the world from every ethnic and religious background. Our Judeo/Christian Heritage is, as Patrick Henry stated, the "very reason, peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity and freedom to worship here."
America was born a Christian nation. The Constitutional Freedom Party will ensure it remains a Christian Nation and will work to preserve and strengthen it by adhering to the Constitution, in the original intent of the Founding Fathers.

The problem with this is there is no such thing as Judeo-Christianity, so how can there be a Judeo-Christian heritage. You can see an explanation of this here: wayoftruth.motion-forum.net/t445-the-judeo-christian-lie
The reason this is a problem is it is the basis for our Foreign Policy regarding Israel. That portion of our Foreign Policy is based on lies, and that has to be corrected. It has caused us to fight in wars that we should not have fought in.
Not one part of our Foreign Policy should based on a religious premise, but solely upon the Constitution.
Continuing on this theme since it is a major flaw in their platform...
ISRAEL AND FOREIGN AFFAIRS:
We believe that Israel is a sovereign state and has the right to defend her people from enemy attacks. We stand with Israel in their right to build settlements and defend their rights to securing their borders. We believe that peace can only come when Israel's enemies are willing to permanently lay down their rockets and suicide vests, and allow Israel's right to exist. Israel has citizens of different religious and ethnicities, including Arabs, who also enjoy all the benefits of citizenship including freedom of religion and seats in Israel's Parliament. When Jews are allowed the same status among Arab neighbor nations, perhaps peace talks will be successful.
The Constitutional Freedom Party recognizes Jerusalem as the Capital City of Israel. We will work towards moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem.
We oppose giving aid to nations who harbor terrorist organizations, who vote against America's interests when it comes to defense actions, or who oppose American values of freedom or espouse anti-Western threats. We must look at aid on a nation-by-nation basis only.

I wonder if this Party ever heard of the Balfour Declaration, and how it came to be. There is nothing wholesome about how Israel became a nation. How good and decent people can support that process is beyond me. The process included two world wars and the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of native Palestinians. For some reason, Christians in America have come to approve of that process. In fact, Christians have pressured our Government to approve of that process. And they continually pressure the Government to support Israel. But, this is one guy that, as President, I will not be pressured. It is greatly understandable that Palestinians fight back. What would you do if someone invaded your home? How would you like it if a Foreign Government would invade the United States, take over some of our land, rip people out of their homes and business, take them out in the streets and shoot them? Obviously, you wouldn't like it. Who would? So why would you support the foreign invaders of Palestine, that has done the very thing I just described? And they are still doing it. we must correct our Foreign Policy to fix this.
Israel even kills Americans and so far with complete impunity. Is it okay for Israel to kill Americans? line2016.freeforums.net/thread/394/okay-israel-americans
This Party says they, "oppose giving aid to nations who harbor terrorist organizations." Then why give aid to Israel who supports ISIS, or ISIL, which ever you prefer. In fact, ISIS are Israeli soldiers... line2016.freeforums.net/thread/453/isis-israeli-soldiers
The most appropriate thing for the next President to do regarding Israel is to ask Congress for a Declaration of War. Not for what they have done to the Palestinians, Egyptians, Syrians, Lebanese and Jordanians, but what they have done to Americans. The USS Liberty, Rachel Corrie, and possibly the 9-11-2001 attacks. And that's just for starters.
For an ally, they have not treated us very well. They have spied on us to learn military secrets. They have used double agents against us. And for what purpose?
So, you can see, this is a big problem I have with the Constitutional Freedom Party. There is no way I could become a member of that Party.
There is a better way than...
