Elect Glenn Beck for President of the United States? Glenn Beck the rodeo clown? Glenn Beck the former alcoholic drug addict? Elect a man like Glenn Beck, a talk show host? Am I crazy for nominating for President a man that clings to his guns and his religion?
No I'm not smoking crack. After a lot of consideration I believe Glenn Beck is the best choice for President. Many Americans have been wanting a President that is a true Washington outsider. Glenn Beck can be that man. Kind of a Mr. Smith goes to Washington, only Glenn Becks' background is not quite so squeaky clean. Glenn Beck is a man that resembles middle America. Beck is a former alcoholic drug addict, divorced, had problems with jobs and money. Beck has wallowed in the darkest pits of despair and emerged a family man, a bread winner, one of the top men in his chosen career and last but certainly not least an honest intelligent man.
I'll have to admit, Glenn Beck drives me crazy sometimes. On his radio show he can come up with some really weird things to talk about. But when he talks politics and history, Glenn Beck knows his stuff. I am usually skeptical of anyone that calls themselves a conservative, but not a Republican. Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh try that line occasionally, but with Glenn Beck it really is believable. Beck is a cross between a conservative and a libertarian.
Elect Glenn Beck vs. John McCain
In order to really understand why we need Glenn Beck for President we have to take a look at the other candidates running for President. John McCain has the Republican nomination locked up at this point and will be their candidate for President. McCain's strong point is, he is a true patriot. Other than that he is weak on economics, promotes open borders, supports socialist agendas and supports empire building. John McCain is a liberal on a Republican ticket.
John McCain is a New World Order politician. Much to the chagrin of Glenn Beck and like thinking people, the senator from Arizona has been a major supporter of NAFTA and open borders. The American people are fed up with jobs leaving the country and minimum wage workers sneaking across the border to work here. Mexico is a sovereign country with her own borders. We do not have a right to violate those borders any more than they have a right to violate ours.
Elect Glenn Beck vs. Barack Obama
Compared to Glenn Beck, Barack Obama is a socialist. Barack Obama says he does not believe in drilling for oil in United States territory. According to Obama and his followers drilling for oil is bad for the environment. If it is bad for our environment why do we accept oil from Canada, Mexico, Venezuela and the Middle East? Is it not bad for their environment also? Now Barack Obama says that the 8% profit the oil companies made in the last year is to much. He has a plan to rob the oil companies of enough money to give every family in the United States $1,000. That, supposedly will take care of our high gasoline prices for the next 5-10 years, while scientist who have been working on alternative energy for decades, miraculously solve all our energy problems on a ramped up schedule. Glenn Beck, for the love of Pete, shut this man down!
We are a Democratic Capitalist country, not a socialist dictatorship! If 8% profit is to high, practically every company in the United States will have to start handing over profits to Big Government. This will lead to a mass exodus of corporations leaving the United States for tax friendly countries. We have already lost millions of manufacturing jobs, now the corporate headquarters of companies will be moving to places like Dubai and the United Arab Emirates. Halliburton has already made the move, who will be next? Google has a 24% profit margin, think they could not operate from anywhere in the world? A corporation that moves off shore could easily show a low profit margin on their American operations, while at the same time still making the kind of profit that they want. How many jobs do you think will be lost in the United States if corporations start moving out? Our economy will be in shambles with lost wages, and lost federal, state and local income taxes. Think it will not happen? Who would have thought as the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union collapsed that socialist in America would gain such a foothold in our politics? With Glenn Beck Democracy will continue and the free enterprise system will thrive. With Barack Obama socialism will prevail.
A Glenn Beck Platform
First and foremost Glenn Beck should be President because he believes in the Constitution of the United States. Glenn understands what the oath of office for the President and all national government employees actually means. "To uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States." That oath is taken by every national politician and member of the United States Military. No where in the Constitution does it say "this is just a fluid document and its contents should be periodically changed to suit the whims of power hungry politicians." Gee whiz, I guess socialism is out and democracy is in.
The second item in a Glenn Beck platform for the Presidency would be a serious constitutional issue. PROTECT the borders! The Presidents job is to "protect our country from all enemies, both foreign and domestic."
Crossing the border of one country into another without permission from that country is illegal. Most countries would consider millions crossing their border without permission an invasion, with the penalty being at least jail and expulsion. The United Nations and the World Court do not have any jurisdiction within the United States and unlike John McCain and Barack Obama, Glenn Beck will make sure they understand that.
A third item in a Glenn Beck platform for the Presidency would be drill here, drill now, drill everywhere, and pursue alternative energies with a vengeance. The United States is not the economic powerhouse we used to be. We are sending 700 billion dollars to other countries every year for oil. It used to be that we were a major exporter of goods and services, now we are a major importer. It is believed that two things caused the demise of the British Empire, constant wars and an erosion of their manufacturing base. It does not take a lot of sense to realize that when you start buying more than you are selling, a collapse in the economy is inevitable.
A fourth item in a Glenn Beck platform for the Presidency would be a reduction in the size of government. Our federal government is now the size of about 1/6 of our economy and growing. If John McCain or Barack Obama get into office and pass legislation for universal health care, the federal government will become even larger. Glenn Beck has studied the Constitution and literature about the founding fathers. Beck understands that our federal government was never intended to be the megalithic behemoth that it is today. The Goldwater and Reagan Republicans used to believe in a small government, but the Rockefeller arm of the Republican Party has taken over and power is the name of the game.
A fifth item in the Glenn Beck platform for President would be the ceasing of entangling alliances that we do not even have the means to support. "For over a century and a half, America held to Washington's dictum of no "permanent alliances. " Now we have treaty guarantees out to fifty nations on five continents and troops in a hundred countries. Some 150,000 U.S. Soldiers are tied down in seemingly endless wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Should the United States confront another crisis anywhere on earth, the bankruptcy of our foreign policy would be transparent to the world." (Pat Buchanan, Where The Right Went Wrong, St Martin's Press, 2004.) I believe that Glenn Beck is the type of guy that would defend our country and way of life, yet not feel the need to push our ideals on the rest of the world.
The Plan To Make Glenn Beck The President of the United States
So the real question is. How do we get a man like Glenn Beck to become the President when he seemingly has no inclination to become the most powerful man in the free world? We get him elected whether he wants the job or not. We campaign for him. Whether Barack Obama or John McCain wins the Presidency this year I believe our country is screwed. With either we will edge closer to socialism and the demise of democracy.
That gives us four years to get a serious grass roots campaign set up promoting Glenn Beck and Democracy. We do not want Beck beholden to any party or special interest group. W get him on the ballot in every state for 2012, then we elect him President. If he does not want to campaign himself, that's OK. When we get him elected we can carry him kicking and screaming up to the White House. Glenn's good at swearing, so we can have a swearing ceremony and put him to work. As a side note, Glenn, I am a handyman, so all I ask for getting you elected as president is to be your official handyman. I can just wonder the halls of the White House, Congress and the different federal buildings with a wrench and a hammer and "fix" whatever you want.
Glenn Beck is a down to earth, funny and an enlightening man. Glenn Beck would be a breath of fresh air is a field of power hungry, say anything and do anything to get more power, politicians. Elect Glenn Beck 2012!

Post a CommentNope. Not in a million years. The day Glenn Beck were to take office as President of the United States is the day all hope for the future of mankind will be lost. It would be the nadir of all of human achievement. It terrifies me that the even slight possibility of this occurring even exists.
I started listening to the Glenn Beck radio show around 10 years ago. At that time he never really talked about politics or economics, was mostly off the wall comedy parody type stuff. No politics except for during an election cycle. I remember during the Bush admin. he was called to the White House along with Rush and Hannity and all of a sudden he talked politics year around. He seemed genuine, did not agree a lot with Rush or Hannity much, so I thought he was marching to his own drum beat. I even wrote this article for Associated Content that said we should endorse him for president. Needless to say I feel pretty stupid at this point. Lately I discovered Alex Jones and started doing more research. Now I am really suspicious of what is going on at Fox. In any mainstream media organization, when the heavy pocket advertisers pull their ads and funds from a show, the show goes off the air. Murdoch is keeping Beck on the air with no mainstream advertising support. Is Beck bein
He's got my vote!
Mr Beck needs to really wake up to what is really happening in America. Yes, he knows the key words that excite the less than general public. Making bombastic statements do not make someone a president...if I wanted to go back to the 1950's where witch hunts and lying congress men you would have to be a little nuts. Has one read the Constitution of this Country I doubt you have other than the one for baring arms. It actually sets out with the words that the Govnerment is to care for the health and safety of each person in this country not just those that are Christain but for all of us...
Ones like me that have fought for this country who have bled and died to protect the likes of Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, George Bush Jr. the John Smiths, blacks, whites, natives like me, asians,
this isn't just a corperation. In fact the constitution says nothing about free enterprise or earning money...not one word in any amendment. Only that we should be honest, caring oh I forgot the Liberals that wr
love the idea.... but what if O'Reilly & Palin were on the ticket and Beck becomes their secretary of state? its no secret the vice president has been and will always continue to be a lesser factor in government operations compared to the president and the secretary of state in all capacities. the focus behind this idea is, we would have a president who is identical to Beck in every aspect of politics. just as fiesty but disciplined and controlled emotionally. his defence of the constitution(like Beck) separates him from all(the reason why i value the two so strongly). we would have a vice president that is well qualified to pick up after her lead man, if need be (hint!). a vp who will follow her lead and defend their views with fury, and at the same time mesmorize the audience with her cunning beauty and darling personality (what a combo!). then of course we would have Beck as sec. of state. a position that faces the nation and foreign countries just as much as the president
it is his destiny.
I would love to see some one like Beck run,what we need is a common man with views that align themselves with the rest of America
Hey, didn't the religious right HATE Mormons not too long ago and think they were a cult? O well i guess since they thought for WAY too long that I shouldn't have sat at the front of the bus, but please? These same guys just love him now? How do people think he's soooo sincere? I just don't get it. Mormons think Jesus was AN ANGEL, NOT THE SON OF GOD, so when he invokes Jesus, which is a lot, HE'S COMPROMISING THE RELIGION HE CLAIMS TO BE IN TO PANDER TO HIS AUDIENCE. If he was serious about his own religion, he would invoke Joseph Smith a lot more, and someone who wasn't the son of God according to him a lot less. If that doesn't make it clear he's a phony, I don't know what will. Glenn Beck is in the dictionary next to "fraud", him and Pat Robertson.
Glenn Beck can STFU. He's so frickin' ANNOYING. This BS idea that he's so FAIR and COURTEOUS and "smart" (hey, I thought he HATED smart people) and "independent" (please, this GOP SHILL? HACK AND FRAUD!) and not an irritating drama queen and C*nt, and he goes after BOTH PARTIES ( the Repubs sometimes for NOT BEING RIGHT-WING ENOUGH!) so he's sooooo independent and "factual" and better than everybody else (humble my ass) has got to die a quick, painful death.
I agree...we may have to drag him kicking and screaming into the White House, but his IS THE MAN for President of this once-great nation!
I only wonder who his running mate would be...hmmmmm?
