Do you prefer the Hindenburg or the Titanic?

That is the choice in the 2024 presidential race

All the candidates in the 2024 presidential race are constitutionally illiterate sociopaths who would have fought for the Redcoats against the Minutemen at Lexington and Concord and would have been denied entry to the constitutional convention. Never in the history of nations has so much liberty been squandered by so many for less than a mess of pottage.

History hath but one page. We are reenacting the fall of Athens, about which Edward Gibbon wrote: “In the end, more than freedom, they wanted security. They wanted a comfortable life, and they lost it all - security, comfort, and freedom. When the Athenians finally wanted not to give to society but for society to give to them, when the freedom they wished for most was freedom from responsibility then Athens ceased to be free and was never free again.”
