Constitution Party of Idaho

This program reintroduces Americans to an enduring symbol of their heritage

Tree of Liberty

When we enter voting booths, one question is appropriate to ask:

What is the basis of your vote’s decision?

Constitution Party of Idaho

Liberty does not have the luxury of election by an ignorant population

Constitution Party of Idaho

One sure method to separate citizens from liberty is by fear mongering

The old “cattle chute” mentality

Constitution Party of Idaho

Fear mongering…used by every petty third world dictator known to man

Constitution Party of Idaho

But a voting booth is not a cattle chute!

Constitution Party of Idaho

America’s two major parties routinely push voters with fear

Votes are no longer cast FOR principle

Constitution Party of Idaho

Votes are cast “against the other guy”

Party over principles

Constitution Party of Idaho

America has an unprincipled government

Because voters choose party over principle!

Constitution Party of Idaho

Every election, voters are herded into crowd pens

Prepared by the duopoly

Constitution Party of Idaho

Crowd pen “choice”—leads to same slaughterhouse of individual

liberty

Constitution Party of Idaho

Fellow citizens…

Fear is not part of America’s heritage!

Nor are you an animal to be herded

Constitution Party of Idaho

If political fear were part of your American heritage…

We would have no Bill of Rights !

Constitution Party of Idaho

Stand on the courage of principle!

Arm yourself with knowledge

Constitution Party of Idaho

The Tree of Liberty is not a bonsai tree!

Constitution Party of IdahoThe Tree of Liberty does not thrive in a

box!

Bunker Hill Battle Flag, 17 June 1775

Constitution Party of Idaho

Skilled demagogues may distort history for their own purposes

But do not be fooled

Constitution Party of Idaho

The U.S. political duopoly insist voters “only” have two choices…

A Democrat box A Republican box

Constitution Party of Idaho

And the “logic” these two big-box parties use to justify voting for them?

Your vote is: “the lesser of two evils”

Constitution Party of Idaho

But, when voters choose the lesser of two evils—

Voters will always elect evil!

Constitution Party of Idaho

The inescapable conclusion is …

Party over principles = unprincipled

Lesser of two evils = evil

Constitution Party of Idaho

Hypocritically, the big-box “choice” is claimed to represent liberty!

But, does it?

Constitution Party of IdahoBoth major parties mistake Liberty!

Continental Flag, 17 June 1775 at Bunker Hill

Constitution Party of Idaho

Liberty does not thrive a partisan box!

Despite cradle-to-grave fear mongering!

Constitution Party of IdahoLiberty in a box = a bonsai tree

Constitution Party of Idaho

≠

But a bonsai tree does not equal a Tree of Liberty!

Constitution Party of Idaho

That bonsai tree is good for nothing

Beyond a hobby or a conversation piece

Constitution Party of Idaho

≠

It does not provide for the beasts of the field

Constitution Party of Idaho

≠

It cannot provide for the fowl of the air

Constitution Party of Idaho

≠

It will not supply shade in the heat of the day

Constitution Party of Idaho

≠

Nor can it make timber for homes

Constitution Party of Idaho

Do not accept the box!

Dribbled attention every four years by partisans…

Will not yield liberty!

Constitution Party of Idaho

True liberty…

Must grow in the fertile soil of God-given unalienable rights!

Constitution Party of Idaho

Otherwise, it can be no Tree of Liberty!

But something altogether different…

Constitution Party of Idaho

Manipulation!

Constitution Party of Idaho

As for the puppet’s liberty?…

That is not on the puppet master’s mind as he plays his partisan strings

Constitution Party of Idaho

And sadly, over time, those partisan strings… Will prove not to the liking of a free people
