I suspect that it comes from either a misunderstanding of what the true foundation for moral code actually is, particularly given Krug's misguided assessment of its correlation between Man and government previously, or never knowing what the true foundation for moral code is at all. I suppose that this misunderstanding of what the foundation for moral code actually is, is likely the driver for trends like projecting leadership whose position is that it is an acceptable Man-to-Government relation to force a feller to relinquish his property to another feller at the direction of the barrel of a government gun in the name of Liberty itself and stuff like that.

Technically I'm not 100% certain if it's ever been filed and such. I just... left. It's been almost 8 years to the day, though, so I would consider that enough time to be able to say we're divorced It was not a good situation. I know some folks who aren't divorced, and I know others who take to it like it's the national passtime.
Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.
I did the same thing. You aren't technically divorced, though, until the state has the final say with papers and such. That is if you ever intend to remarry under the authority of the state. Personally, if I ever get married again, it won't be one of those state licensed marriages.
I guess Johnson's out too.

The only candidate who isn't divorced is Hillary,...and that's only because she won't lift her face up outta Huma's crotch long enough to call a lawyer.

Go Forward With Courage
When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;
when doubt no longer exists for you, then go forward with courage.
So long as mists envelop you, be still;
be still until the sunlight pours through and dispels the mists
-- as it surely will.
Then act with courage.

Yes, I understand that there have been Presidents who were faithful in marriage, and yet they did not uphold their oaths of office, betraying the American people and the States. But those Presidents were hypocrites.
The point I'm driving at is that Donald Trump has a history of breaking his vows to love someone for all of his life, and that says a lot about himself as a person. If he were elected, then it would make sense for him to not be faithful to his oath because he has done that throughout his life with people who were supposed to be his highest object of love. As lilymc so eloquently put it:
All I'm saying is that, at the outset of the general election, there is no reason to expect Trump to do any of the things that he claims to do (whether it's abolishing trade deals, having a sensible foreign policy, or anything else that members of this forum praise him for) because he does not honor oaths in his own personal life.

Exactly. Generally speaking, we all look for some sort of credentials from a person before we trust them to perform a service to us, which in this case, we're investigating ethical credentials. Ethical credentials do matter, especially when a person is seeking the most prestigious office in America. If someone believes that it's okay to break sacred bonds whenever it's convenient for himself, then it's more than likely he will act on that in other areas of his life, such as in business or in civics.

I can imagine being married to Donald Trump is exhausting. It's a big household to run and a lot of personal maintenance. Maybe the rooms of cash buy them more hours in the day, but I doubt it.
DT obviously loves kids. He had a lot of them and he seems to enjoy his grandchildren.

Prostitutes don't flock to the site of National Political Party conventions because they want to hear the speakers.
Washington D.C. is one of the most Hedonistic places on Earth. Dwelling on a candidate's sexual purity isn't something that's going to generate a lot of conversation.
Well,....unless it involves Ted Cruz. But even then it was only because everybody was shocked that he could find 5 women who would have sex with him.
A person's sexual purity is one of the most important factors about a person's character because it deals with his deepest commitments to intimacy. While I agree with you that Washington D.C. is filled with hedonism, that's all the more reason why we need a President (or any political figure, for that matter) who does not give in to his sexual desires that violate his commitment to his spouse, just as we want him to resist the temptation to take power that he is not authorized to have by the Constitution.
The two are linked. The more we ignore the truth that what a person does in his private life comes to light in his public life, the more we will continue to allow corrupt people to sit in seats of public office because those people hide themselves under empty promises and false allegiances to correct principles and policies. I'm going to be crude here and say that, on a basic, ethical level, where a person chooses to stick his dick in at night determines how he uses his pen in the daytime.

I'm in Japan right now, and I'm not planning to vote by an absentee ballot, only because the candidate I would support is not on the ticket in my state--Darrell Castle of the Constitution Party. But, of course, sexual purity is just one of the prerequisites that I look for in a candidate of my choosing.

Yes, and that metric is simply a matter of public record. We all can find out how many times a candidate has been married or when his sexual infidelities have been exposed to the public. That's all I'm touching on when I mention Trump's multiple marriages as a basis for questioning his fidelities to the American people and the States. Obviously, I can't find out every instance of sexual deviancy from a candidate, so I can only stick with information that is known in the public domain.
And to that point, I can generally say that Darrell Castle's marital commitment is much better than Trump's, as evidenced here.

Seems like a quality individual. But I honestly don't see any path to the White House for him.
The reality is, this election is between Trump and Hillary.
Trump isn't the number one person in the United States that I want to be President, but I think it's very important that the government not be turned over to the Clinton machine.
They're a very bad bunch.
Mark Sanford not only cheated on his wife and lied about it to the people of his state, but he also cheated on his mistress too.
Yet he was the best governor in the country and voted almost identically to Ron Paul when they originally served in Congress. Right in the middle of cheating on his wife, he was turning down stimulus money for his state on principle.
There is no correlation between having an affair and not advancing for smaller government.
But what did Mark Sanford do once his affairs were made public? Did he reason, "Well, I've been advocating for smaller government in my state, so I'll stay in office, even though I was caught cheating on my wife"? No, of course not. Sanford knew that his credibility as a principled governor was shot in the public's eye, so he resigned (and rightfully so). He understood the correlation between his infidelities to his wife and the ramifications of them in holding a public office in his constituents' trust.

He endorsed neocon Ted Cruz? To me that says a lot. He's no Ron Paul.
He voted for TPA. Another red flag.
And apparently he attended a Bilderberg meeting? Of course he downplayed it. I wouldn't trust the guy, he sounds like a duplicitous creep. Not only for being a serial cheater, but it's a gut feeling I have just from doing a bit of research. To me he seems to be just like a lot of R/D's, just going along with the charade, but in reality have already sold out to the PTSB.
