First GOP Presidential Debate Postponed

Wednesday, 30 Mar 2011 11:29 AM

WASHINGTON - The first scheduled debate of the 2012 Republican presidential nominating race has been postponed from May to September because of a lack of candidates.

The May 2 debate at the Ronald Reagan presidential library will be moved to Sept. 14 to allow time for Republicans to enter the race for the right to challenge President Barack Obama in 2012.

The Republican campaign has been slow to begin, with a large field of potential candidates gauging their prospects but few jumping in. Former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty last week became the first major contender to take a formal step toward running when he formed a committee to explore a bid.

"Although there will be a long and impressive list of Republican candidates who eventually take the field, too few have made the commitment thus far for a debate to be worthwhile in early May," said John Heubusch, director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation in Simi Valley, California.

Another Republican debate, scheduled for May 5 in South Carolina, is still on. The debates will be televised.

That is true. This country has been abused so much by TPTB, that the only way a President could be effective is to go into hiding from TPTB. Then he must use his executive powers and through his Justice Department, begin indictment proceeding against many of TPTB (we know who they are), claw back the money stolen by TPTB and put it back into the Treasury. Criminally charged would include many Lobbyist Organizations and their X-politician employees, many cabinet officers and Tzar appointees of prior administrations, most of the executives of the top 5 Banks in the country, Freddy Mac and FannieMae, and much of the top executives of the Military Industrial Complex corporations. I doubt if any President could do what needs to be done, and still remain alive, but I pray that someone does try. There are many laws that were broken, that could easily be proven, but they all boil down to one Capital Offense, TREASON.
