Reality TV star Rupert Boneham announces Libertarian candidacy for Indiana Governor

Saturday, October 22nd, 2011

It appears the Indiana Libertarian Party has found its candidate for Governor in 2012: Rupert Boneham, a former contestant on the reality TV show “Survivor.”

From the article:

Boneham, 47, is set to officially announce his intentions at an event Saturday, but told RTV6′s Todd Connor during a Friday taping of “Indianapolis This Week” that he’s excited to seek the Libertarian Party’s nomination.

“I’ve been talking to a lot of my friends, my family, my donors for Rupert’s Kids, making sure that my world would not really change, that my programs will still be maintained,” he said. “(I’ve been) talking to a lot of the people on our website, RupertForGovernor.com, seeing those stories, people out there that are struggling, that are having a hard time, and I don’t see the candidates that we have to choose from really understanding what is going on with day-to-day Hoosiers.”

Boneham touted his experience as a small business owner and his years of work on behalf of troubled teenagers with his charity, Rupert’s Kids, as his primary qualifications.

The Indiana LP has been one of the party’s strongest affiliates in recent years. 2010 Senate candidate Rebecca Sink-Burris earned 5.39% of the vote, and in 2008 LP presidential nominee Bob Barr performed better in Indiana than in any other state. However, previous Indiana Libertarian candidates have been longtime party members who were not well-known outside Libertarian ranks. Now, the party has a minor celebrity to lead its ticket in the state, and state (and national) vice-chair Mark Rutherford couldn’t be happier:

Mark Rutherford, vice chairman of the Indiana Libertarian Party, said previously that Boneham was exactly the kind of candidate Indiana needs.

Democratic Party News – Backdoor Amnesty Becoming Reality.

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

According to the Houston Chronicle, the Department of Homeland Security is in the process of trying to dismiss thousands of deportation cases against “suspected illegal immigrants.”

The Chronicle goes on to say that this effort by the Obama Administration began a little over a month ago in Houston, where the Department of Homeland Security now has five attorneys working full-time on this backdoor amnesty for illegal aliens. This program is expected to be rolled out nationwide very soon (you know the old congressional lame duck quackery)

Until Obama gets off his skinny butt and delivers on his campaign promise concerning immigration reform, the several states have no choice but to handle it themselves.

If memory serves (I may be old but not senile) Obama ran for the presidency promising secure borders, increased number of LEGAL immigrants, to remove incentives for illegal immigration, and to allow undocumented immigrants who are in good standing (no police record), to pay a fine, learn English, and go to the back of the line for the opportunity to become citizens.

He has done absolutely none of those things he promised to do, but what can one expect from a fraudulent, fast talking, phony sidewalk commando who can’t remember from one minute to the next what just came out of his mouth, and then when confronted with his own words chooses to ignore the question.

People are still questioning his very eligibility to occupy the office, which he still refuses to clarify (he won’t go near that one).

It makes not a bit of difference if amnesty is front door or backdoor, we need to put a lid on that crap.

Earlier in the year, Obama affirmed his support for the Schumer/Graham immigration legislation outline.

These ELITES in Washington keep talking about COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM, would just one of you self aggrandizing blowhards define that term.

Now try this on for size     

H.R. 1388 was passed, behind our backs.  You may want to read about it…  It wasn’t mentioned on the news…  just went by on the ticker tape at the bottom of the CNN screen.        

Obama funds M in tax payer dollars to immigrate Hamas Refugees to the USA .  This is the news that didn’t make the headlines…         

By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the expenditure of .3 million in “migration assistance” to the Palestinian refugees and “conflict victims” in Gaza .

The “presidential determination,” which allows hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States , was signed and appears in the Federal Register. 

Few on Capitol Hill, or in the media, took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with housing and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support to the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006

Now we learn that he is allowing thousands of Palestinian refuges to move to, and live in, the US at American taxpayer expense          

These important, and insightful, issues are being “lost” in the blinding bail-outs and “stimulation” packages.

Doubtful?  To verify this for yourself: www.thefederalregister.com/d.p/2009-02-04-E9-2488

I don’t know about anyone else but I can hardly recognize my own country anymore, this certainly isn’t the country I grew up in.

It should be perfectly clear that the phony schmuck in the Oval Office is not for this country or its people.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!
