The CHP won’t win, but I’m voting for them

The CHP will not win, but here are a few reasons why I’m voting for them in the next election;

They will eliminate all income tax, and replace it with a consumption tax. You will still be taxed, but on what you purchase, not what you earn.

They will replace the Canada Pension Plan with a new Personal Security Income Account that belongs to you, not the Government of Canada.

If one parent stays at home while the other parent works, the family would receive $1,000 a month to raise their children until age 18.

They will require criminals to make restitution to the victim.

As I said, the CHP will not win, and here are a few reasons why;

At the present time, the strict guidelines of the CHP do not allow them to run a Candidate in every Federal riding. This is a good thing, as they are seeking only quality candidates.

They rely strongly on Christian Churches to get them elected. As the number of Christian Churches in Canada continues to dwindle, so do their chances for being elected.

These past few elections have seen voter turnout plunge to extremely low levels. The CHP needs the votes from those who are not voting. These non-voters are the ones who feel that the system has failed. They know that, regardless of who they vote for, it will be the same circus, just different clowns.

The CHP distance themselves from certain media outlets, as the CHP do not want “unfavourable coverage”.

I had to think what Jesus would say about this.

I turned to Luke 19:1-10, and saw what Jesus did about "unfavourable coverage". Here was Jesus, coming to find and restore the lost. Yet everyone criticized him for finding and restoring one who was lost!

I also turned to Romans 12, and thought that instead of the CHP distancing itself from certain media outlets, the CHP should instead be trying to build good relations with all media outlets.

Hiding from certain media outlets does nothing for the CHP. It makes me feel that the CHP consist only of Rabbit Hole Christians (http://www.rbc.org/devotionals/our-daily-bread/2005/03/10/devotion.aspx)

If the CHP expect to get enough votes to have elected Members of Parliament, they are going to have to deal with this "unfavourable coverage", and learn to build bridges, instead of tearing bridges down.

The CHP should use some of their funds and place advertisements in newspapers, calling people to meetings, so that the people can learn of the positive ideas the CHP has.

Increasing public awareness is the only way the CHP can get the votes of people who do not presently vote. When the CHP starts placing third, or second, in each Federal riding, this will send a wake-up call to the presently elected political parties, and will force them to re-think the devastating laws they have implemented on all Canadian Taxpayers.

So, come next election, join me in voting for the CHP, if they are running a candidate in your riding. They won’t get elected, so you’ve nothing to lose, but have a lot to gain.
