You gotta love U.S. Senate Candidate Marc J. Victor for smacking Jeff Flake around on the liberty issues.  Jeff Flake is a career politician who adjusts

Republicans are mad that Americans are offered a Libertarian choice.

his populist view according to the polls.

We are hearing conservatives and Republicans complain here locally saying that a vote for Marc J. Victor is a wasted vote.

Sound familiar?

The 2 major party system and their Party bosses get hella-annoyed when people exercise their free will to vote for someone else who is more in line with their own belief system. Whatever happened to democracy and voting your conviction?

A vote for Marc Victor is a vote for Marc Victor.  A vote for Gary Johnson is a vote for Gary Johnson — comprende?

Here is what Victor has to say to Jeff Flake:

“Jeff Flake is pretending to be a Libertarian, pretending to be for freedom and free markets…” 

I’m not the only one who believes Flake is full of it.  According to a local poll seen here, you will find that over 65% of us don’t buy Flake’s Libertarian-speak.   See below:

The Republican Party ignored Gary Johnson when he was a Republican, in fact they ignored him. Now that Gary is a Libertarian, he is able to speak freely. Several former Republicans have fled the GOP to become Libertarians or Independent voters.

Allow this writing to be specifically directed to Libertarian and Libertarian-Republican voters…

Did you know that if Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson gets at least 5% of the vote, that means the Libertarian Party will have the OPTION to  receive several millions in matching campaign funds in 2016?  Johnson is polling at 6% nationally.

Johnson is clearly onto something.  Major parties, along with minor parties that reach the 5 percent threshold, do indeed qualify for grants in federal matching funds (although the $90 million figure Johnson referred to is unclear at this point).

Remember when the Republican Party would not include then Republican Gary Johnson in the debates?  Well it appears excluding Gary from his freedom of expression is not helping them this 2012 election year.

I predicted the GOP would regret excluding Johnson last year when I wrote:

Now that Gary Johnson has left the Republican Party, he will become political power house and help frame political discourse

And now the test of time has taken place and the prediction is coming into fruition.

TIME recently wrote:

For months, as Johnson ran in the Republican presidential primary, the GOP ignored him as best it could, hoping he’d just go away. Then he did, leaving the Republicans to join the Libertarians. When I ran into him at the GOP convention in Tampa, Johnson looked like a man far removed from his former party, blocks from the convention center, standing on a street corner in front of a Hooters doing interviews.

The GOP isn’t ignoring him anymore. Now that Johnson is threatening to siphon votes from Mitt Romney in close elections in Colorado and Nevada (he’s also on the ballot in 46 other states and Washington, D.C.), Republicans are doing whatever they can to limit his appeal. Michigan party officials kept him off the ballot because he filed his paperwork three minutes late. In Pennsylvania, the GOP hired a private detective who went to canvassers’ homes and flashed his old FBI badge before questioning the signatures they collected, a lawyer for Johnson’s campaign alleged. The state GOP and the investigator denied doing anything improper. (On Oct. 10 a judge decided that Johnson will be on the Pennsylvania ballot.) The experience has left Johnson, 59, alienated from some of his old comrades—which, it turns out, he doesn’t mind at all. “Going to Republican events, as I did a zillion times, I listened to Republican candidates do their spiel. I cringed at a lot of what they said, whether it was abortion, the terrorist threat, the homophobia, the ‘illegal immigrant is the source of all our problems’—man, that stuff made me crazy. The kook element of the Libertarians gets up, and I don’t cringe.”

Things are getting down right ugly here in Arizona with the deep partisanship of the two major party system between Republicans and Democrats — and this is precisely why I am an Arizona independent voter for life.

I want to demonstrate to my reader how the 2 major party system has failed American voters, and if you really want to punish the 2 major party system here in Arizona — I recommend you vote YES to an Open Arizona Primary via Prop 121.

For example, in Congressional District 9, we have seen the ugly partisanship nature of Republican Candidate  Vernon Parker attack the Democratic Candidate Kyrsten Sinema for referring to mothers as leeches.

Burnin’ Vernon states on his facebook page:

“FACT CHECK: Sinema Lies About Breast Feeding Moms Legislation; Taking Credit for Jonathan Paton’s Bill

Phoenix, AZ – Today the Vernon Parker campaign called on Kyrsten Sinema to immediately pull her blatantly false television ad claiming she sponsored legislation to protect breast feeding moms.Sinema’s Claim: “It was Sinema’s legislation that protected breastfeeding mothers like us from indecent exposure laws”FACT: HB 2376 was introduced by Jonathon Paton and Tim Bee. To see the actual bill click the link:

“Shame on Kyrsten Sinema for taking credit for someone else’s work. She should immediately apologize for lying about her record and apologize for calling stay at home moms leeches. Then she should take down this deceptive television commercial and finally come clean about her record,” said Alyssa Pivirotto, Parker Communications Director.”

On the other hand, a Libertarian-Republican friend of mine sent me this photo today below where it shows Burnin Vernon liking a fan page titled:

“Screw the skinny bitches:  A break up cookbook manual”

So how is a woman to vote in Congressional District 9 this year?  The options given to them in my view are horrendous.  It will amount to two things for the lady voters this year: Whether or not a woman finds it more offensive to be called a “leech” or finding it more offensive that politicians only like to “screw the skinny bitches” if these women voters are overweight.

I really don’t care who wins this race, but as a Latina … I am still disgusted with Burnin’ Vernon parading the border with Sheriff Joe Arpaio back in 2010…and in fact, one day before the Republican primary of 2012, my Libertarian friends told me they received robocalls from Arpaio supporting  Burnin’ Vernon Parker and shedding him in a good light.  My disdain runs deep against Arpaio since he sent a letter to his fans where he called me a liberal in 2010 — however, liberals are falsely calling me a far right winger and an Arpaio supporter despite my strong anti-Arpaio record.  The fringe groups have gone off the deep end — leaving the reasonable 80% that afraid to speak up in fear of being attacked by extremists on both sides of the aisle.

Long live the Independent Revolution, and may we be on the brink of another healthy American Revolution that will take power from both sides of the aisle.
