General Voting Guide

Here are links to the major party platforms:

Below is my assessment of the key differences between the parties (discounting campaign rhetoric where politicians say anything to get elected):

Issue Democrats Republicans
1.    Economy 1.    Capitalism is flawed; we should move toward Socialism (eventually Communism?) and more regulations.

2.    Promote welfare for the poor and middle class over the wealthy.

3.    Expand government; spend more, tax more.  No intent to balance the budget; likely to continue massive deficit spending.  Eventually cancel the debt via a great reset.

4.    Shift more of the tax burden to the wealthy and corporations without regard to the resultant drag on the economy.

5.    Support Digital Currency and elimination of cash, despite hardship to the poor, the elderly and small business.

6.    Price controls are a viable option to contain inflation.

7.    Support tax on unrealized capital gains.

 1.    Capitalism is good, having lifted more people out of poverty than any other system.  Link1  Link2

2.    Tariffs that protect American industry are OK, but generally leave capitalism alone with reasonable regulations.

3.    Limited government; spend less, tax less.  Little appetite for balancing budget; likely to continue deficit spending but at reduced level.

4.    Stop outsourcing, reduce dependency on adversaries.

5.    More likely to contain or reduce taxes at all levels.  Recognize all taxes are a drag on the economy.  Overtaxing business will reduce investment and cost jobs.

6.    Keep US Dollar as the world’s reserve currency.  Allow digital currencies, crypto currencies.

7.    Price controls have never worked.  They result in shortages, reduced quality, and underground economies.  Must reduce government spending to curb inflation.

8.    Tax on unrealized capital gains would be catastrophic to the economy and jobs.
Immigration 1.    Open borders; maximize migration; diversity is a strength. Recent Flip?

2.    Emphasize compassion for the poor of other countries, even giving them preferential treatment over our domestic poor. Link  Link2  Link3

3.    Turn a blind eye towards the increased risks of crime, terrorism, drug and human trafficking.

4.    There is no conflict between having tight security at airports but little or no security at the border.

 1.    Seal the border; stop the migration invasion. Link1

2.    Emphasize national security and reduce exposure to crime, terrorism, drug and human trafficking. Link2  Link3  Link4  Link5

2.    Emphasize wind and solar energy sources.

3.    Resist drilling, grudgingly tolerate fracking.

 1.    Strive for Energy Independence as a nation.

2.    Wind & Solar OK but these cannot supply enough.

3.    Continue Drilling & Fracking to meet energy demands.
Climate Change 1.    Climate change is a major threat.

2.    Consider Carbon Dioxide to be a pollutant.

3.    Allocate massive funds to reduce carbon emissions and promote other globalist goals.

4.    Promote / mandate electric vehicles, ignoring the downsides to battery production and the associated environmental impact

 1.    Climate changes naturally; humanity’s influence is overblown.  Link

2.    Carbon Dioxide is good for plants and not a pollutant.

2.    Partner with Big Tech to censor speech and promote government agenda.

3.    Pack supreme court so the party in power can get the decisions they want.

 1.    Defend current constitution with freedom of speech, freedom of religion, right to keep and bear arms.

2.    Retain the Supreme Court as independent of the Executive and Legislative branches of government.

3.    The only exceptions to free speech should be restrictions on inciting to violence and pornography.
Law Enforcement 1.    OK to use Dept. of Justice, FBI, CIA and IRS to attack political opponents. Link

2.    Enforce laws against political enemies but not against own party.

3.    Encourage harassment of political opponents. Link

4.    Release criminals rather than risk violating their rights. If you disagree, you are racist.

 1.    Justice should be objectively applied to all.

2.    Stop weaponization of government agencies against political opponents.

3.    Enforce the law; stop letting criminals go free.  It’s about justice and security, not race.
Military 1.    Inconsistent support for Israel, Hamas

2.    Support Ukraine without limits

3.    Oppose Russia at every opportunity

4.    War can be a means to achieve political ends.

 1.    Support Israel.

2.    Support Ukraine up to a point.

3.    Avoid WW3 and entanglements that don’t support America’s interests.

4.    Strong military; peace through strength.
Abortion 1.    Radically pro-choice, even pro-abortion.

LGBTQ+ 1.    Male/female differences are not significant and don’t matter.

3.    Disallow Drag Queen story hours and pornographic materials at public libraries, emphasize common sense, common decency.

4.    Criminalize gender transitions for minors without parental consent.

5.    The perceived needs of a tiny minority do not outweigh the needs of the many.
Education 1.    Promote Critical Race Theory, LBGTQ+ gender ideology, sex education and abortion, the younger the better.

2.    More centralized control via Federal Dept. of Education. Link

3.    Professional educators know how best to education children.  Resist parental control. Link

4.    People who have never been to college, or who went to college and paid off their loans, should pay the debts of students who still have college loans to pay off.

 1.    Cut Federal funding for any school pushing Critical Race Theory, Radical Gender Ideology, or other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content on our children.

2.    Reduce or eliminate Federal Dept. of Education in favor of individual states.

3.    Parents know what is best for their children.

4.    Resist Voter ID, proof of citizenship, cleaning up voter rolls.

5.    Downplay the extent of voter fraud.

6.    We should count non-citizens in the census which determines how many votes each state gets in Congress.

 1.    Must better secure our elections to eliminate fraud.

2.    Strongly prefer in person voting.

3.    Some favor early voting; others same day voting.

4.    Paper ballots to preclude hacking voting machines.

5.    Voter ID and proof of citizenship required.

6.    No ballot harvesting, mail-in voting tolerated if tightly controlled.

7.    Clean up voter rolls to remove those who have deceased or moved.

8.    Census for voting should count only citizens.

My intent on the above comparison is to help you focus on the stark differences between the two parties.  This election should not be about choosing the most likable person, but rather choosing the ideology that will guide the country going forward.

Here is a comparison by First Liberty between the two presidential candidates: Trump vs. Harris: Their Record on Religious Freedom and Other Key Issues – News – First Liberty – 8/30/24.  First Liberty’s focus is primarily 1st Amendment rights.

If you vote in Kamala Harris and the Democrats, then this is what will likely be the result:

  1. Laws will be enacted that ensure the Democrats will never lose another election. Non-citizens and felons will be allowed to vote.  See link1, link2, link3.
  2. Free speech and other 1st amendment rights will be lost. See link, link2, link3.
  3. Government censorship and propaganda will be pervasive (link), and Government protests will be put down harshly.
  4. Political opponents will continue to be aggressively attacked and suppressed via weaponization of FBI, CIA, IRS, and the Department of Justice (link, link2). Enforcement of law will even more depend on the person’s political persuasion.
  5. Crime, drug and human sex trafficking will continue to escalate, fueled by an open border. See link, link2, link3. Pedophilia will be tolerated and eventually decriminalized (link).
  6. Terrorists flooding across the border will eventually mobilize and strike (link).
  7. Supreme Court will be “packed”, or expanded so that the Democrats can appoint enough new justices to ensure the Court supports all Democrat party policies. See link1, link2, link3.
  8. More activist judge appointments will further erode the original intent of the Constitution.
  9. Government health insurance will replace all private health insurance.
  10. Government will control food and other commodities in short supply.
  11. Drag Queen story hours and pornographic materials for children at public schools and libraries will continue and proliferate (link).
  12. The country will devolve steadily into socialism and then communism or Totalitarianism.
  13. As the border becomes meaningless, USA sovereignty will give way to a global one world government and religion. See link, link2.

Some additional relevant links:

  1. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz
  2. Election Fraud Articles and Videos
  3. Illegal Immigration and Child Sex Trafficking
  4. Transgender / LGBTQ

  6. Kamala Harris Would Overhaul Supreme Court – including expansive “court packing”.

    • He shines a light on the complicity of bishops in covering up abuses and misconduct – particularly with Cardinal McCarrick, who was publicly denounced by now-excommunicated whistle-blower Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò – when they knew about and overlooked McCarrick’s crimes for a long time.
    • He praises the late Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (Benedict XVI) for his efforts to address these issues, despite facing resistance from various quarters.

  12. Archbishop Viganò: Bergoglio’s ‘blessings’ for homosexual couples show he is a ‘servant of Satan’ – Lifesitenews.com – 12/21/23
  13. Blessing Same-Sex Couples: a CA Roundtable | Catholic Answers Magazine – 12/21/23 – Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF)
    1. Trent Horn – Given the practical difficulty involved in the wide variety of ministers giving and individuals seeking these “spontaneous blessings,” I would not have released the document—or at I least I would have included the reminder from the 2021 DDF ruling, still in force, that God “does not and cannot bless sin.”
    2. Karlo Broussard – the DDF is safe doctrinally but has failed (gravely?) in exercising pastoral prudence. The damage has been done. Confusion is setting in. Let’s implore God that he will bring order out of disorder and peace out of chaos.
    3. Cy Kellett – At every talk I give, I meet people who are at their wits‘ end with Francis and people who are at their wits‘ end with those who oppose Francis. Everybody seems on edge. This isn’t helping… Fiducia Supplicans, in my view, is basically correct in its approach to blessings—if what it’s saying is that Pope Francis wants people to receive the blessings of the Church without priests actually blessing sinful unions.
    4. Todd Aglialoro – Fiducia Supplicans suggests that it is not their false claim to legitimate conjugal union or the sinful sexual acts that accompany it, but rather “all that is true, good, and humanly valid in their lives and their relationships”. This strikes me as, at best, an unrealistic view.  I fear that the result of this document will be to present confusion and scandal to the world… to dishearten and impede the efforts of faithful clerical and lay ministers currently resisting the tide of sexual libertinism…
    5. Joe Heschmeyer – So what has the DDF now added to the conversation? The idea that in certain contexts, a priest might give an informal blessing to a “same-sex couple.” It’s not true, therefore (as some have said), that the DDF is okaying the blessing of same-sex “unions.” But it’s also not true (as others have claimed) that this is nothing new, since it’s just about blessing same-sex-attracted individuals. It’s not about individuals or unions, but a third thing, seemingly in between the two: a “couple.”
    6. Tom Nash – nowhere does FS acknowledge and affirm chaste living, as do faithful apostolates that minister to persons with same-sex attraction. Consequently, whatever good intention he may have, a cleric who attempts to bless the relationship of a same-sex couple will do them a grave disservice.
    7. Christopher Check – within hours of the Dicastery’s publication of Fiducia Supplicans, media all over the globe reported that the Catholic Church had reversed its teaching of 2021 that homosexual couples and “irregular” heterosexual couples cannot be blessed. The Catechism tells us that “scandal is an attitude or behavior which leads another to do evil. why would Rome cause scandal? Did the DDF not know what consequences FS would produce? One telltale sign: the word repent is noticeably absent from the document.

  19. Kirby – I Will Not Be Blessing Couples in Irregular Unions (complicitclergy.com) – 12/31/23. These ‘pastoral’ blessings do not require repentance and the desire to change like all other church blessings. These same-sex couples are in a state of sin. Conditions: no vestments, no formal prayers, not in civil union ceremony, must be spontaneous, not part of sacred liturgy. God & the Church cannot bless states of sin.

  26. LGBT ‘Catholic’ groups celebrate Fiducia Supplicans as an endorsement of homosexual relationships – Lifesitenews.com – 1/5/24
  27. Golden Opportunities Missed – The Catholic Thing – 1/5/24 – David Carlin
    1. The first thing we have to note is that most Americans who have heard of FS – whether Catholics or Protestants or non-Christians, and whether they be pro-SR or anti-SR – perceive FS as a significant victory for the LGBTQ+ movement, a movement which, as I see it, has as one of its aims to undermine and destroy the Christian ideal of sexual morality, hence Christianity itself.
    2. Most people see FS as the Catholic Church giving ground to the LGBTQ+ gang.  They see FS as a sign that Catholicism, like liberal Protestantism, will eventually remove homosexual practice from its list of serious sins.  Defenders of FS can tell people, all they want, that they are mistaken to see things that way; all the same, that’s how they see it.
    3. Second, the American Catholic bishops are once again offered a golden opportunity to put themselves at the head of the SR counter-revolution.  But to do this, they will have to do something that is almost a psychological impossibility for a Catholic bishop: they will have to make a public declaration of their disagreement with the pope.

American Bishops Failed to Discipline Pro-Abortion Catholic Politicians

American Bishops Failed to Discipline Pro-Abortion Catholic Politicians (15+ articles)

  1. A few are now speaking up, but they waited until AFTER the election, to their shame

An investigation could reveal whether any of these clerics were likewise groomed by or had sex with then-Archbishop Jorge Bergoglio and today are “passing the tradition on.” By advising Viganò to “keep your mouth shut,” some journalists in the Catholic media world may prefer not to know the answer.

    • Less emphasis on evangelization, warnings against proselytizing
    • Catholic social teaching emphasis to exclusion of recognizing Jesus Christ as the only way to be saved
    • Globalist sustainability goals, many of which are contrary to the Faith
    • Personnel is Policy – the Pope’s appointments tell you where he really stands. g. Abp. Paglia who gutted the JP2 Institute; Cardinals Cupich, Tobin in Vatican Dicastery that chooses future bishops.  Bp. McElroy of San Diego appointed Cardinal; Abp. Fernandez as new head of the Dicastery or Office of the Doctrine of Faith, who has been the Pope’s primary theologian and ghost writer; he wrote a shocking, pornographic book “Healing with Your Mouth: the Art of the Kiss”. He believes everyone is saved no matter what.  Pope Francis wrote a letter to him “I don’t want you to be correcting heresy…”

  38. The Wheels Are Coming Off | The Wanderer Newspaper (thewandererpress.com) – 8/17/23
    • The purpose of the Church is to save souls by moving them from Earth to Heaven. That objective is accomplished by teaching the Deposit of Faith and giving the sacraments so that souls are saved by grace. That God-given and divinely mandated purpose of the Church is violated by the documents of this pontificate, by the scandalous words and actions of men appointed to prominent positions by Pope Francis, and without correction by him, and by the Synod agenda.
    • Pope Francis has made abundantly obvious even to those who do not specialize in prophecy that he intends to change the truth itself. He is very determined. An impossible task and yet just one more fantasy. But it is not an idle threat. Why? The phenomenon of papolatry, a perversion of the doctrine of papal infallibility, has been growing apace for many years now and has laid the groundwork for many to believe that whatever a Pope says is true, even if it contradicts matters of faith and morals that preceded him.
