How to Fight Fascism

Iraq veteran, Adam Kokesh, speaks out again the pending totalitarian force emanating from our federal government.
Two thousand years ago, a Roman Senator suggested that all slaves wear white armbands to better identify them. “No,” said a wiser Senator, “If they see how many of them there are, they may revolt.”
Liberty Candidates: Too Many to Count?

Rand Paul. RJ Harris. Adam Kokesh. Peter Schiff. Debra Medina. The list of liberty candidates running for political office is seemingly endless.
Just yesterday B.J. Lawson joined the ranks. He is running for North Carolina’s 4th district U.S. House of Representatives seat. Two years ago he was one of only a handful of liberty candidates running. Though he was defeated, this year a win is much more likely.
Two years ago having an (R) by your name was more of a liability than an asset. Bush was not popular and the Republican Party as a whole was not seen in a positive light. The public was ready for change, but recently have shown they were not looking for a change towards a hard-left agenda.
Liberty candidates are in practice more libertarian than the typical “Conservative” than the typical Republican. They are in effect in a very desirable position. Though the Republican Party is still not looked at favorably among the public, many will vote for Republicans as a vote against Democrats. On top of that liberty candidates have the added benefit of gaining many Independents and Democratic voters because of their libertarian-leaning stances that resonate with them.

Adam Kokesh on real health care reform and the Repeal It pledge

Repeal It pledge picks up steam
Sun, 01/17/2010 - 12:59pm | posted by Jason Pye
On Thursday I posted a link to a new website sponsored by the Club for Growth that offered a pledge to lawmakers, candidates and citizens to help repeal ObamaCare should it pass the Congress this year.
Since the launch of Repeal It, 5,203 citizens (likely to be more by the time you read this) have given their pledge to support candidates for federal office that will work to repeal the legislation being falsely promoted as “health care reform.”
Twenty-nine lawmakers, members of the House and Senate, have signed the pledge for their respective chambers promising their states and districts that they will repeal ObamaCare.
And 58 candidates for either the House or Senate have also taken the pledge to “to sponsor and support legislation to repeal any federal health care takeover passed in 2010, and replace it with real reforms that lower health care costs without growing government.”
Three signers of the candidate pledge are candidates we’ve been following here at United Liberty because of their extraordinary stances on issues of economic and personal liberty: Adam Kokesh (R-NM-3), Rand Paul (R-KY-Senate) and Peter Schiff (R-CT-Senate).
Other notable candidates that have signed the pledge are:
Adam Kokesh profiled by Washington Independent

Over at the Washington Independent, Dave Weigel has put up a great profile of Adam Kokesh, who is running for Congress in New Mexico’s Third Congressional District:
“The ground has really shifted away from the neocon agenda,” Kokesh told TWI during a break in his campaign schedule. “There was no influx of young people getting into the Republican Party to support John McCain. By contrast, Ron Paul brought a huge number of young people into the Republican Party. It’s really exciting to see that happening again with my campaign.”
