many many times that there needs to be a balance of power. When one party gains too much power it seems the power goes to their heads and they start feeling invincible and above the law. Same for the branches of government. The Judicial checks and balances the legislative and executive. The executive checks and balances the legislative and judicial and the legislative checks and balances the executive and judicial. Without these checks and balances we would be doomed to tyranny. The greatest check and balance in our political system worked Tuesday. It is called the American voter. We have the greatest power if we will use it correctly.

We need to get back to constitutional government that answers to the law and the people.

I agree totally. In fact, I believe in balance for believers too. Which is often, as I see it, why we do have error in some doctrines. Most do not look at both sides of the issue, finding the balance God meant for us to see in the first place. But read something in scripture, getting totally unbalanced about it after that. In fact, I believe the Lord told me this is how the devil does cause us to be in error quite often to begin with. Kind of like telling someone a bit of truth, along with a bit of a lie, so to speak. Causing that one not to see the whole matter ultimately.

Also need to watch closely what one is doing and saying too, before voting for them. And a bit of prayer always helps too.

I have thought about switching from what I have always referred to myself as being, which is republican, to being independent. But then you cannot vote in the primaries when you do this. So have decided not to do so for that reason. But just to vote independently instead. LOL

I received this today for anyone that is interested in this issue. As I am. Not that I want to take away anything from anybody. But neither do I believe in inviting the breaking of the laws of our country either. As they are there for a purpose I believe. And people who come here illegally are doing just that. No matter how one excuses it. And many do.
