or explain away just about any behavior as long as their policy is acceptable.

Still no candidate that meets your superior morals?

None that meet mine. I’d like for them just to simply be honest people, not take money from lobby groups, not become millionaires after getting elected.

Not absolutely sinless they don’t even need to be perfect. How about just simply decent good people.

You got Massie, Ran Paul they seem to be decent people. Who else? I don’t know.

Politicians that haven’t become millionaires AFTER getting into office. If something like this is impossible then there is no way the country will ever even slightly get a little bit better. I don’t think that’s too much to ask.

or explain why they are ashamed to admit who they voted for while at the same time shaming everyone else who actually voted.

or explain why no candidate is worth supporting because he isn’t Jesus Christ.

or explain why he thinks he is hot snot for his opinionated positions on politics when he is nothing more than cold buggers who enjoys stirring up political controversy which he says he despises.

No argument here. I rely on the old adage: "Politicians and diapers need frequent changing, both for the same reason." Even with candidates I tend to support, after an an average of two terms, it's time for them to move on.

The intent of my original reply was to try to get Mr. Sub to finally divulge the name of the candidate who has the right balance of policy and moral superiority that we can all get behind without violating our conscience.

Having millions before you go into public service is often a reason for people to criticize the candidate too, because having money means you can buy elections. Danged if ya do, darned if you don’t. People just love to criticize, which is why the saying “You can please some of the people all of the time, and you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time".

A wise preacher told me once, "I can't please everyone so, I just try to offend everyone equally."

I would expect that to be the result when the Gospel is preached. Good on him.

@subllibrm what are we looking for in a candidate? Someone that meets what requirements?

I honestly don’t know of any politicians that have ever bought an election. Being bought is something different.
