H. Brooke Paige is absolutely correct when he recites, “You solemnly swear, or affirm, ….you will do it so in your conscience you shall judge will most conduce to the best interest of the same, as established by the Constitution, without fear or favor of any person.”
In other words, if you know a candidate plans to violate the Constitution by taking money from one person and giving it to another; forcing children into daycare; forcing Vermonters to make insurance companies wealthier or continuing with the real estate tax forced on Vermonters by Governor Peter Shumlin, legislators, town clerks, listers, boards of civil authority, the attorney general, Shap Smith, and most judges in Vermont who know the tax has been found to be unconstitutional and not according to wealth – is illegal – you can’t vote for that candidate. The “National Popular Vote Interstate Compact” further erodes the one person – one vote.
While our military members are forced to illegally invade foreign countries to impose government’s version of free elections, they work in America to ensure campaign contributors get what they want! Patrick Leahy, Bernard Sanders and Peter Welch abuse, denigrate and disrespect our fellow citizens imposing horrific service.
Comply with YOUR voter’s oath and stop voting for the Republicans and Democrats – they’ve proven they hate this country and its Constitutions.
