The Big Picture: "Vine & Fig Tree"

A third-party candidate running against the third most powerful Republican in Congress--who won the last election with a landslide 70% of the vote--would have to be insane to believe that he could win the election. Certainly not without a lot of man-hours of work by an army of volunteers, and perhaps a little Divine Intervention.

But as I said yesterday, I'm running more to defend "the Big Picture."

So what is "the Big Picture?"

There are a couple of ways to describe it. One way is to recall the animating vision of America's Founding Fathers, who used the words of the Bible, and the Prophet Micah in particular; who spoke of a day when every man would be able to dwell under his Vine and under his Fig Tree, with no one to make them afraid. It was a vision of private property, unmolested by princes or other pirates.

I have just updated the first of a couple of hundred webpages from my 2004 campaign website:
