I am in 100% agreement with you. But just for the sake of argument, if the leadership of the Constitutional party did have the qualifications for leadership.
Even given the fact that trying to implement most of their platform, would take 8 years to enact, does that mean that people shouldn't at least give them a try who believe in what they are advocating?
We could legitately say that Rome wasn't built in a day and unless we take that first step, positive change will not happen.

My personal feeling is, that after I did some research on that party, I might just support them, knowing full well that they had a big up hill battle a head of them.
I wouldn’t be naive enough to believe that they could get in any time soon, unless God intervened. But I would support them because the more support they had, the more effect they could have on the way the elected government is run.

I do however believe that any party with such high goals would be honest with the voting public about the long process of change. Also that their ability to implement that change isn’t entirely in their own hands, they can only do their best to foster this change.
