Mathematically, Ted Cruz needs 87% of the remaining delegates to reach the 1,237 needed to become the nominee. Two new polls show some bad news for Cruz. In California, Landslide/NSON shows Donald Trump with 38.3% of the vote and Ted Cruz with just 22.4%. And with less than 10% undecided, there will not be a […]

Dear Friends, Those pushing for an Article V convention assure you that Delegates to a convention can be controlled by State laws. But that is not true. Delegates to such a convention are the Sovereign Representatives of The People and have the inherent sovereign power to throw off our Form of government and institute a […]

The Republicans won, which is great for them, probably better for us, but it remains the duty of each citizen to hold their elected representatives accountable. Most voters do not believe that there is anything they can do, besides to vote, to hold their representatives accountable. I would like to offer three simple things that […]

A Letter from Susan Stimpson exposes the latest Republican attempt in the Va House to fool voters: Today the GOP leadership in the House of Delegates is holding a staged vote against Medicaid/ObamaCare Expansion. It’s a cynical attempt to cast a vote that can be used for political cover in 2015 primary contests. No matter […]

I am generally pleased with Governor McDonnell’s State of the Commonwealth address.
