The contributors to White House 2016 represent a cross-section of conservative opinions.

The 4 original authors are brought together by a chance encounter on a political debate website called U4Prez.com, a site where you are afforded the opportunity to run your own campaign for president, in between what often turns out to be intense debate.

Through their involvement on U4Prez, Anthony, Jim, Ike, and Mike, developed an ideological bond that has helped turn into a joint venture which in 2010 was known as White House 2012.  Now as White House 2016, the site has become a central location for information, news and conservative opinion and analysis on today’s political issues and tomorrow’s presidential election. Over time, WH16′s sphere of influence has expanded and  our family of conservative authors has grown.

The dramatic changes delivered by the liberal regime of Obama, Pelosi, and Reid, have many Americans chomping at the bit to run quickly in another direction, a direction that the right Republican ticket can take the nation in. For that reason, the race for the Republican presidential nomination is going to start quickly and last long.  But before we get to there, while White House 2016 will document and reveal the developing race for President, it will also cover the political issues of the day as well as  the coming 2014 midterm elections.

With the addition of new contributors  in the form of state editors, White House 2016 hopes to keep you up to date on the latest developments in on each U.S. Senate and gubernatorial election.

I am old enough to serve as witness to the “rot” occurring in America. This sound-bite based, PC, half-truth environment that our leaders, celebrities, unions and special interest groups have fostered is a fallacy and a farce. It is mocking those that died for this country, turning the citizens into buffoons and ripping this country apart.

The propaganda press will hide it as best they can but the consistent hypocrisy, relentless corruption and intentional destruction of the Constitution by both parties within the Federal government must be exposed. Big government and nanny-state policy is not the answer.

Small government is good government. I just can’t decide whether it should be small or infinitesimal. I question government on all levels and doubt its’ competency with all enterprises. As a result, I have been labeled “to the right of conservative transcendentalism”. Strangely, I’m somewhat comfortable with that.
