The campaign is up and rolling. We are official candidates in New Hampshire and Vermont with more states to come. I've started to post articles and tweet my views. Its now time to decide the direction of this campaign. The first time I ran in 2008, I really had no central theme except I couldn't do any worse than the professional politicians. By 2012, I started to focus on flat taxes and limited government. This time, the RobertsonFalls Campaign would like some feedback from you. Let us know where we should take this and what issues we should cover. Should we face the dark problems facing this country or focus on the unlimited opportunities and talent that still exist?
Part of me wants to warn my fellow citizens that we are facing grave danger for the future of America. The reality is the average person has no clue how screwed up this thing is. They know about the Kardashians but have no clue about the Federal Reserve or how lobbyist work. Most of you have watched all the Lord of the Ring movies but never seen one documentary about our national debt. Sadly, the average person is just dumb to the potential doom headed our way. This is why I kinda feel like I need to point out the problems we face and to maybe wake some people up.
However, the best way to make it through the darkness, it to find the light. The reality is that we live in an age of great potential. The rapid increases in technology allow to easily handle problems we used to struggle with in the past. You might not believe this but violence world wide is actually down. For a majority of mankind's history, we have had major conflicts between nation states. During this century, we have had no large World Wars or even the massive genocides that we saw in the 20th century. People are able to travel all over the world and co-mingle like never before. Women today have more opportunities than ever and gays are being accepted more than ever.
So where do we go? Should we face the great darkness that looms over our society or should we shine the light of great potential? Let us know, give us some feedback.
Thanks,
Platt Robertson - Presidential Candidate
Scott Falls - VP Candidate
