Constitution Party Presidential Candidate Darrell Castle: “We will all love our Slavery as Today’s Freedom Lovers die off.”
Constitution Party Presidential Candidate Darrell Castle: “We will all love our Slavery as Today’s Freedom Lovers die off.” freedomoutpost — May 1, 2016
Editor's Note: Because so many people in America really don't have an idea of what a candidate for president actually sounds like outside of those who wear a Democrat or Republican jersey. In many cases, they don't even understand that the two party system was abhorred by the founding fathers nor do they understand that the two party system is how those behind DC campaigns continued to control things and nothing ever changes because of it. That's why we're making you aware of the Constitution Party's presidential candidate, Darrell Castle. The Constitution Party actually holds their candidates to a standard and if they break with that standard, the party simply breaks with them. This interview was conducted by Ken Lambert of Eagle Rising.
"We will all love our slavery as today’s freedom lovers die off.” — 2016 Presidential Candidate Darrell Castle to Eagle Rising.
Third parties in the American political scene have had little impact in national elections during the past 100 years. Ross Perot in 1992 had a minor run, and prior to that Teddy Roosevelt ran an unsuccessful Presidential campaign as a “Bull Moose” candidate back in 1912.
Today there are several third parties, one of which is the Constitution Party. The CP originated in 1992 as the US Taxpayers Party and changed to its current name in 1999. They have less than 80,000 official members and are currently only on 19 state ballots. The party is considered by many, including most within the party, as a “far-right,” traditional political party. It is strongly Judeo-Christian based, and some of its platform causes ripples with many in the Democrat AND Republican parties. One example is the CP stance on abortion. It is staunchly pro-life,even in cases of rape or incest. (Writer’s note- while that may seem extreme to some, it is relevant to add that the Roman Catholic Church has the same exact opinion on the matter. The RCC is the largest denomination in the United States.)
Recently the Constitution Party nominated long-time party favorite Darrell Castle, Esq. as their Presidential candidate for 2016. Mr. Castle has run his own law practice for decades in Tennessee, and is a Vietnam War veteran, serving with the U.S. Marines.
Eagle Rising was able to ask Castle several questions about his political aspirations, and the direction of the country.
Eagle Rising: It is likely that the two mainstream candidates will be Trump and Clinton. In your opinion, who would be worse and more dangerous for America as President?
Darrell Castle: Hillary Clinton is far worse than Donald Trump. She is the favorite establishment neocon and is more likely than any other to provoke World War III. If that’s not enough, she has 147 FBI agents investigating her for possible crimes allegedly committed while she was Secretary of State.
Eagle Rising: Many will claim that a vote for you in November could hand the election to Hillary, in a close state race. What is your answer and defense to this allegation?
Darrell Castle: If you think things are fine and you’re happy with the way things are going just keep those Republicans and Democrats — you are guaranteed to be happy. If not, then it is time for a change. Eagle Rising: In your first 100 days in office, if you did win the election, what are the first 3-4 items on your agenda?
Darrell Castle: Withdraw the United States from the United Nations and explain the decision to the American people. Start the process of ending the Federal Reserve and returning the American monetary system to the American people through their representatives in Congress.
Start the process of winding down the agencies that need to be closed.
Eagle Rising: Do you believe that Trump will jump ship and seek the Presidency via a 3rd Party, if he does not receive the Republican nomination? Why? If so, what Party potentially?
Darrell Castle: No, I do not believe that he will do that for at least two reasons. 1) He just used that threat as leverage to keep Republicans from cheating him as they did Ron Paul. He does not want to be a pariah. 2) Practically speaking, it would be impossible to obtain access to all 50 ballots in time unless he got the Libertarian nomination and they are for open borders…so I don’t think so. Eagle Rising: Sanders talks a lot about it, but in your mind- what exactly is a democratic socialist?
Darrell Castle: A democratic socialist is a person who wants the government to own the means of production, to allocate that production and to take from producers by force and redistribute to more favored groups. The Democratic part is that we vote to decide who gets to be in charge of the armed robbery.
Eagle Rising: What are a couple of CP planks/ principles that were once part of the Republican platform- but no longer are?
Darrell Castle: The pro-life plank used to be important to Republicans but it no longer is. Even if it remains, they conspire to ignore it. The concept of a balanced budget has long been abandoned by Republicans.
Eagle Rising: Some people, including Republicans, have a large problem with the CP stance on abortion. Why do you believe that you are in the right?
Darrell Castle: The right to life comes from God. Governments are instituted among men to protect the God given right of life, liberty and property. The 5th and 14th Amendments both say “No person may be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. That is very inconvenient for Republicans.
Eagle Rising: In a perfect world, 5 years from now, what actions do you desire to see the United States federal government accomplish? Darrell Castle: Return to fiscal sanity and solvency. Do what it takes to bring spending under control so the debt can be brought down and we are freed from enslavement to creditors.
Take a more non-interventionist approach to foreign policy to build a more peaceful world.
Eagle Rising: If we continue on this trajectory, will the country in 25 years remotely resemble the United States from 25 years ago? What are your thoughts?
Darrell Castle: No, the United States 25 years from now will have a much lower standard of living. There will be two classes of people – extremely rich and poor. We will all be blended into one polyglot soup of humanity with one world money, world taxation and world government. We will all love our slavery as today’s freedom lovers die off.
