Chuck Baldwin Defeats Alan Keyes for Constitution Party Nomination Posted by Eric A. Garris at April 26, 2008 10:11 AM

The Constitution Party just overwhelmingly defeated the warmongering neocon Alan Keyes by nominating Chuck Baldwin, 383 to 125.

Last night, CP founder Howard Phillips strongly denounced Keyes as a warmonger, neocon, and egomanic. Phillips was subsequently attacked by Jim Clymer, the CP national chairman.

In spite of Keyes bringing in a lot of delegates, the CP remained true to their anti-interventionist views and rejected Keyes.

Good news (for a change)! I'm sure that Alan Keyes was a GOP plant sent into the CP to neuter it. CP supporters had the good sense to say "no" to neoconservatism.

I never thought for one minute about voting for Alan Keyes for anything after that dumb@$$ statement he made about Michael New--twice the man (at least) that Keyes could hope to be.

Keyes also favors slavery reparations in the form of a special tax cut for all blacks. Even Obama opposes slavery reparations, which puts Keyes in the same league of race panderers as Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.

I guess he is just another poverty pimp. A bit better educated and a little more well spoken but just another flaming racist at heart. Why should white people be forced to pay descendants of black people for things that happened four or five hundred years ago and over which none of us had any control? It is absurd. And that is completely overlooking that if they had been left in Africa their life spans would be much shorter and it is highly unlikely that they would have ever had the kind of life there--most of them anyway--that most of their descendants have had here. Not saying I condone slavery because I don't and I think that many of the ills we have faced and will continue to face are a punishment for it (nationally I mean). Still it doesn't make sense to blame descendants for what their ancestors several generations back did or didn't do.
