STEPHEN PERCY ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Senator Paul I have to admit made a good point today after war mongering in the Middle East and who are the people endorsing Marco Rubio.

[NHI]

If all are in agreement, then will end this round at 10 am EST?
The next round will have the campaign jump ahead to early Dec.

Agree.

[NewYorkExpress]

Agree, if only because it's almost 10AM...

Also, is there any way the turns could be one week long again? Coming up with things to do for two weeks is really tiring...

If it's about the time you have in two days to make a two-week-long schedule, I think you could just ask for a 24 hour extension for the turn.

True, but that doesn't completely solve the problem. In any event since we would now be in December, and the Iowa Caucus is in February, I think one week for a two day turn is justified.

Marco Rubio's speech ahead of voters at Holman Stadium in Nashua, New Hampshire, responding to Rand Paul

Well, folks, I think Rand forgot Hezbollah because I did not say that Bachar al-Assad would take the risk of invading Israel by himself. I said he is supporting Hezbollah by providing weapons to this radical Islamic terrorist group to make Hezbollah able to keep committing terrorist attacks against Israel.

And there is something strange about Rand's standing on foreign policy : he keeps saying over and over again that we are too much engaged in foreign affairs. And yet, two years ago, he supported an Iron Dome-style missile defense system to defend major U.S. cities and to protect Israel, a measure which I absolutely agree with for the sake of America's security and Israel's security. Three months ago, Rand said that we should fight Iran over its nuclear program with diplomacy and military strength, which is exactly my plan to accomplish our goal to prevent an eventual military nuclear Iran and to preserve peace through stronger military partnerships with our Middle Eastern allies, including Iran's neighbors, through the establishment of an anti-missile shield between Europe and the Middle East to destroy any nuclear missile launched by Iran and through stronger diplomatic and economic sanctions against Tehran. And finally, last year, Senator Paul said that we should deploy missile defense in Eastern Europe, but that they should pay for it. I agree that Eastern Europe needs a missile defense in order to take down any Russian missile launched against our allies and to dissuade Vladimir Putin from invading Eastern Europe like he's doing right now in Ukraine by supporting a pro-Russian rebellion.

So, my friends, if Rand Paul sometimes adopts foreign policy positions that I have, then sometime we're not sure where he is on this matter. But right now our enemies are fearing us less and our allies are trusting us less because of our increasing disengagement in the fight against terrorism. I believe that peace and security requires a stronger American leadership, a stronger American military and a stronger American diplomacy. It's through collaboration with our allies that they will recover their trust in us. It's through trust that we will be united in a common goal : defeating terrorism. In this race, I am the candidate who has the best national security experience and knowledge to accomplish this agenda and that's why I'm asking for your vote.

Thank you. God bless the United States of America.

[Loud applause from the audience]

[GoTfan]

Okay, with everything that has happened, I'll be unable to post a detailed schedule. So  with that in mind:

Summary Sanders focused this week on organising his campaign in the Super Tuesday states, while his surrogats camapigned for him in Iowa, Nea Hampshire and Nevada, attempting to focus thekr efforts on these critical eary states. In particular, surrogates were taught to emphasize Sanders' decisive straw poll win in Iowa as proof that the progeessive movement is surging.

Do we start the next turn tonight?

[NHI]

Do we start the next turn tonight?

TURN 8: 2016 Presidential Election

Republicans:
Senators Rand Paul and Marco Rubio are starting to go after each, specifically in the area of foreign policy. The debate between the two Senators strikes at the heart of the party's internal battles over the GOP foreign policy of the 21st century. Paul, a critic of the neo-conservative/interventionist wing, and Marco Rubio a proponent of such policy.

Even Stephen Percy has jumped in on the action, lobbying attacks against Rubio and his policy positions. The GOP activist has seen a boost in both New Hampshire and Iowa. The Florida Senator has done his best to stand up to the scrutiny, but the back and forth with Paul has weakened him in Iowa, at a time when he hopes to be building onto his support.

In New Hampshire, Paul has jumped to a commanding lead, while Percy has seen his numbers rise. Also, on the rise in Iowa is Jerry Moran, who finished a strong second in the Iowa Straw Poll; giving his campaign hope for a good showing in the first caucus state contest. He did receive the backing of the Des Moines Register -- the state's major newspaper, however it is undecided if it will have much effect on the race.

As the establishment favorite, Rubio will have a large donor and endorsement list to call on, but the attacks from Paul and Percy show his path to the nomination will not be an easy one. He did however receive a major backing from Former South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint, who praised Rubio for his stances on foreign policy, and called him a "strong leader for the times".

Endorsements:
Rand Paul:
Former Representative from Michigan Kerry Bentivolio - Bentivolio describes himself as a conservative who has libertarian leanings, he supports a non interventionist foreign policy, is pro life and has many free trade ideas, all this lines pretty well to Rand Paul's policies.

Former Florida Representative Connie Mack IV - Exactly the same reasoning from Kerry.

Marco Rubio:
Bob Dole, former Kansas Senator, former Senate Majority Leader and 1996 Republican presidential nominee, endorses Marco Rubio because he worked for his 1996 presidential campaign in the Dade County in Florida, due to shared views on economic, social and foreign policy issues and also because of Rubio's intention to grow the Republican Party.

Jim DeMint, President of Heritage Foundation and former South Carolina Senator, endorses Marco Rubio due to their shared hard-core conservative faith and philosophy, to their shared support to free market and to a stronger foreign policy.

Mick Mulvaney, South Carolina Congressman, endorses Marco Rubio due to shared views on economic and social issues.e

Tom Rooney, Florida Congressman, should endorse Marco Rubio because they are from the same state and also due to shared views on foreign policy.

Rodd Blum, Iowa Congressman, endorses Marco Rubio due to shared views on economic, social and support to a constitutional amendment to balance the budget and limit spending.

Harold Hamm, CEO of Continental Resources, endorse Marco Rubio due to shared views on energy and economic issues and to Rubio's determination to get America to energy independence.

Robert J. O'Neill, retired U.S. Navy SEAL,endorses Marco Rubio due to shared views on foreign policy. Since O'Neill is the SEAL who killed Osama Bin Laden during the Operation Neptune's Spear in Pakistan in 2011, he is convinced that Senator Rubio has the best plan to defeat radical Islamic terrorism.

John Cornyn, Texas Senator, endorses Marco Rubio due to shared views on homeland security and energy as well as economic, social and foreign policy issues.

David Young, Iowa Congressman, endorses Marco Rubio due to shared views on agriculture and shared determination to repeal Obamacare.

The Des Moines Register endorses Marco Rubio due to Rubio's success in Iowa and because this editorial is increasingly becoming conservative since the 2012 election.

Frank Guinta, New Hampshire Congressman and former Mayor of Manchester, endorses Marco Rubio due to shared views on economic issues and national security and their shared intention of abolishing funds for Planned Parenthood in order to restrict abortion.

Ron De Santis, Florida Congressman, endorses Marco Rubio because they are from the same state and also due to shared views on foreign policy issues.

Democrats:
Senator Bernie Sanders is proving a force to be reckoned with in the Democratic Primary. He received a major endorsement: AFL-CIO: The organization said in part, "Sanders has fought for the working class his entire life. Whether it's raising the minimum wage, fighting corrupt trade deals, or standing up to the big owners, Bernie has been on the front lines, standing guard for the middle and working classes"

Another endorsement for Sanders is: Americans for Democratic Action: "America has been at its strongest when progressives like Roosevelt and Johnson have been at the helm. Today, America has the chance to elect a progressive in Bernie Sanders, that is why we support him."

The Vermont Senator has seen a major boost in donation and support, and for the first time has taken a lead in a poll! Now all three contenders lead in the first three contests: Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina.

For the other self-described progressive in the race Elizabeth Warren received the backings of: Tammy Duckworth, Kamala Harris, Kirsten Gillibrand, Kathleen Rice, Xavier Becerra and Nancy Pelosi. In hopes to solidify her stance as the progressive darling, her campaign is hoping some big name backers from the party's establishment will present her as a strong alternative to Joe Biden and more electable than Sanders.

Joe Biden, continues to lead nationally and is viewed as the safe, electable choice, but the Vice President will need to fire up progressive eager to correct some off the wrongs/or shortcomings of the Obama Years. In head to head match ups, Biden is still the favorite. He bests all Republicans between 45% and 48% of the vote. His closest race is with Marco Rubio, but he still defeats him: 47% to 43%.

STEPHEN PERCY ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT THE PARIS ATTACKS

Paris today was hit by one of the worst terrorist attacks I have seen since 9/11 tonight.

ISIS is now not just a major threat to the Middle East but a major threat to the world.

ISIS seems to be the coming of the Fourth Reich.

My thoughts go out to the people affected by this cruel soulless group who are trying to destroy western  civilization.

[NewYorkExpress]

Schedule for Elizabeth Warren

November 30, 2015

Speech at Holman Field, Nashua, New Hampshire (With Maggie Hassan and Ann McLane Kuster)

Three times Bernie Sanders has cosponsored legislation to create a Department of Peace. He's being very naïve in my opinion. There will always be people or countries who want to fight or go to war with other people or countries, and sometimes mediation and negotiation does not work.

Speech at Rivier University, Nashua, New Hampshire (With Maggie Hassan and Paul Hodes)

It's about time this country took climate change seriously! While the Paris agreement, recently agreed to is not perfect, it is a huge step forward and I am proud of the Obama administration for bringing us into this agreement. Even so, there's still more work to be done, and I, as President will seek to push for further reductions in carbon emissions than outlined in agreement, and I will seek to bring other big polluters, like China and India on board.

Town Hall on Anti-Terrorism Policy in Franklin, New Hampshire (With Ann McLane Kuster, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid)

With the recent attacks in Paris, do you believe we are safer at home and abroad?
First off, let me say that I, like so many others, stand with the city of Paris in their darkest hours. To answer your question, you can't stop living your life because you feel scared. As President, I'll push for budget increases for the FBI and TSA, so that we are safe at home, and encourage our allies to share intelligence about terror plots with us, so that we can more easily disrupt them.

December 1, 2015

Meet Voters in Pittsfield, New Hampshire (With Maggie Hassan)

Speech at Franklin Pierce University, Rinidge, New Hampshire (With Maggie Hassan)

Volkswagen's cheating on emissions tests is another example of corporate greed at its finest! As President, I will direct the Attorney General to prosecute Volkswagen, and its executives to the extent of the law, both civilly and criminally, holding them accountable for their bottomless pursuit of the almighty dollar.

Speech at Alumni Field, Keene, New Hampshire (With Maggie Hassan)

I was recently asked if Saudi Arabia is an allies or an enemy. Well, the answer is that fifteen of the September Eleventh hijackers came from Saudi Arabia, their leadership has turned a blind eye to terrorism around the globe, and they seek the destruction of other allies, namely Israel. If they are our allies, they sure don't behave like it, and I would be more inclined to say their closer to opposition.

Speech at Keene State College, Keene, New Hampshire (With Maggie Hassan and Ed Markey)

College is one of the most expensive things a young person can do, and millions spend themselves into debt because of the sky-high cost of tuition. As President, I will push for free college for families, and individuals making less than $200,000 annually.

December 3, 2015

Speech in Ottumwa, Iowa (With Tom Harkin)

Don't get fooled by Bernie Sanders's hype! He is not electable in a general election, and will cost Democrats wins across the nation if he is nominated, especially against a Rubio or a Moran.

-Meet with voters in Des Moines, Iowa
-Fundraising event at the Civic Center of Greater Des Moines in Des Moines, Iowa
-Economic policy speech ahead of college voters at AIB College of Business in Des Moines, Iowa
-Rally with voters in Des Moines, Iowa with David Young who announces his endorsement to Marco Rubio :

Thank you Des Moines.

As a member of the Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration and Related Agencies, I understand the struggles that American farmers and ranchers are suffering across the country, including here in Iowa, due to higher taxes and regulations.

As President of the United States, Marco Rubio will  cut taxes for businesses, including tractor and seed companies, to help them to innovate and to manufacture more tractors and seeds, which will boost job creation, improve agricultural technologies, ensure Iowa's and America's subsistence, reduce the food prices through the reduction of inflation and reduce Americans' dependence on food stamps, which will reinforce their purchasing power and give them more access to food. That's how we're going to make sure that the American people will live better lives by finding good-paying jobs, fulfilling their food needs and accomplishing their agricultural activities.

As a member of the Subcommittee on Homeland Security, I understand the American people's increasing concerns about our national security, especially after the terrorist attacks in Paris. If we don't take real action against terrorism, a terrorist attack like the one in Paris could be coming here in America. If the Democrats win next year, this will be a disaster for America's security and liberty because our country will be an easier target for radical Islamic terrorists due to deep cuts in defense spending and in security measures.

Marco Rubio will defeat radical Islamic terrorism by reinforcing our borders, our military and our homeland security and by building great coalitions that will defeat our enemies. In our history, it was always through collaboration with our allies that we defeated our enemies whether it was during the American Revolution, the two world wars or the Cold War. Thanks to Marco Rubio's plan, radical Islamic terrorism will be wiped off the map and our country as well as the rest of the world will be safe.

That's why I endorse Marco Rubio and I encourage you to join him in this fight for America's future.

Thank you. God bless America.

This time, it happened in Paris. I send all my condolences to the people who lost family members and dear friends. May they rest in peace. May God bless them.

But we will never surrender to radical Islamic terrorism. We will never surrender to cowards. We will stand with France and all of our allies and together, like we did throughout our nation's history, we will defeat our enemies. We will defeat radical Islamic terrorism for the sake of peace, security, freedom and justice.

-Rally with voters at Johnson Hagood Stadium in Charleston, South Carolina with Nikki Haley and Tim Scott for a speech in response to Stephen Pearcy's accusations on taxes :

Recently, my rival Stephen Pearcy has proven to be ready to say and do anything to get elected. During a rally at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, Mr. Pearcy lied about my tax plan, claiming that I will only cut taxes to only 5 % while he knows very well that this is not true. These attacks are not only lies but they are also shameful and desperate.

Let me help you with the facts, Mr. Pearcy. I support flat-rate federal tax. As President of the United States, I will cut taxes for all Americans, from the bottom to the top. I will abolish the IRS and replace it with a 15 % flat tax, not 5 % like you claimed. I will cut taxes for all businesses of all sizes to 25 %, which will help American businesses to create millions of jobs through innovation, competitiveness and stronger production and selling. I will oppose any new taxes and that's why I signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge against raising taxes in 2012. As a husband, as a father of 4 children and as the son of a bartender and a housekeeper, both immigrants who came here for opportunity and worked hard, who lived the American Dream, which I strongly cherish and which I'm proudly defending against the government's increasing influence and intrusion, I am a proud to be a fiscal conservative Republican, I am proud to be adopting a fiscal conservative agenda and as President of the United States I will be proud to put in place this fiscal conservative agenda in order to protect the American Dream and America's prosperity, and that's why I am endorsed by Americans for Tax Reform. So shame on you, Stephen Pearcy for dishonoring the American Dream and for dividing our party through your calumnies.

[Loud and strong applause from the audience ]

And Mr. Pearcy claimed to be the most fiscal conservative candidate in this race. That's simply not true. Mr. Pearcy called to reinstate Dodd-Frank. Dodd-Frank is a remarkable demonstration of how socialism starts : socialism starts when the government creates a problem and gets in to solve it. Just like Ronald Reagan said, the government is not the solution to the problem. Government is the problem.

[Applause from the audience]

Due to Dodd-Frank, big banks are big because the government made them big by imposing thousands of pages of regulations. Unlike small banks, big banks are able to deal with all these regulations because they have an army of lawyers and compliance officers. As a consequence, big banks got bigger and small banks are struggling to lend or to exist. We have actually created a category of systemically important institutions, and these banks go around bragging about it. You know what they say to people with a wink and a nod? We are so big, we are so important that if we get in trouble, the government has to bail us out.

Dodd-Frank has reduced consumer choice while driving consumer costs and the compliance burden higher. This law cost almost 40 billion dollars during the last 5 years, has added complexity and confusion for consumers and financial intuitions, which is detrimental to the housing market, work force, and free market in general.

Dodd-Frank is eviscerating small businesses and small banks. Over 40 % of small and mid-size banks that loan money to small businesses have been wiped out since Dodd-Frank has passed in 2010, which bankrupted small businesses, killed tens of thousands of jobs and drastically raised the unemployment rate.

It's not conservative to support a policy like Dodd-Frank that made the government bigger, that is making big banks even bigger, that is threatening consumption as well as free market, that is causing small businesses' decline and that is killing American jobs. We need to make America fair again for all businesses, including those being run by small business owners, which requires promoting free market policies, reducing the size of government and cutting taxes and regulations for all the American people and for business owners.

We need to repeal Dodd-Frank in order to promote free market and to get small businesses growing again to hire people who are working hard for opportunity and for a better future here on the land of opportunity. That's what I will do as President of the United States and as a proud fiscal conservative Republican.

Thank you. God bless the United States of America.

I watched President Obama's speech on terrorism in which he said that the terrorist threat must not be contained, but defeated, which we all agree about. But Barack Obama as well as Joe Biden, who is running for his third term, have no idea of what they are doing. While the radical Islamic terrorist threat has grown in the last few months and last few years, they keep cutting in defense budget and in homeland security, which is putting American lives in danger. What happened in Paris could happen here. ISIS could leverage the Paris attacks to add recruits and raise money, which will help them to commit further terrorist attacks, including against the United States. The United States need to move immediately to assemble a stronger coalition to fight ISIS. When I become President of the United States, I will reinforce our security measures and give the FBI and our police the necessary tools to help stopping any terrorist attack from being committed here in America so we can be safe at home. We will arm the Kurds to help them to defend themselves against ISIS. I will reinforce and modernize our intelligence and military technologies to find and destroy terrorist positions. I will help to build great coalitions with our allies.

We have common security interests with our allies in the Middle East and in South Asia : destroying terrorism. So it will motivate them to coalesce into an intergovernmental military alliance that I am proposing and that I would be name Southern and Western Asia Defense Alliance (SWADA). As a consequence, thanks to collaboration with our local allies (Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India), to our military power as well as India's Turkey's military powers, and to the numeric advantage of American and allied troops in Syria and Iraq, we will cut ISIS resources, surround ISIS' territory, force ISIS fighters to divide their forces for the defense of all the corners of their territory and defeat ISIS more easily. That way, we will finally find al-Baghdadi's refuge, attack it and capture or kill him, thus weakening ISIS, leading progressively to its end, thus bringing peace, stability and justice back in the Middle East.

Thank you. God bless all of you and God bless America.

STEPHEN PERCY RESPONDS TO MARCO RUBIO ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Senator Rubio has taken my quotes out of context. Dodd Frank is in a disaster in its current form. However as president I will  re-negotiate it to make it work. I will also bring back Glass Stegall
