Just a few political positions held by many conservatives

Here are a few beliefs a lot of us conservatives hold. Here goes, and to heck with political correctness!

Free, fair and legal elections should by law require a registered and documented citizen voter, and to include any overseas voter -- primarily military. Anything else encourages unmitigated fraud. Uninformed and entitled folk should not be coerced to vote.

The Republican contestants for president have some outstandingly qualified participants. Half the American public actually are "sick and tired" of Bernie; as for Hillary ... well! It is beginning to look like Gen. Petraeus was shamefully "railroaded."

Benghazi: If all the relevant information had been made available two years ago, we would not require this present commission.

I do not fundamentally believe this administration on anything relevant. Every fact\figure is fudged to their advantage, and the most accomplished "terminological inexactitude" individual is at the "top."

Responding aggressively to the law is inadvisable and escalates to become deadly. Dorian Johnson of Ferguson should be indicted for solely contributing to the "hands up" theory, with catastrophic results.

"War on Women" is a Democratic cliché, but what actually comes to my mind is Clinton, Cosby and Chappaquiddick.

Vehicular homicides far outweigh that of firearms. What next, confiscate vehicles? The fact is the "operator" is the killer, whatever size of implement/conveyance is used. When the president threatens with extra gun laws, the sale of firearms skyrockets.

We do not need any new laws, just vigorously enforce those already on the books.

The national debt will have doubled during this administration. It is absolutely essential to commence balancing the budget without further delay.
