Another reason we need to do everything in our power to keep any Democrat out of the White House is the risk of what will likely change at the United Nations with leftist support from the U.S.

For example, the UN is again attempting to disarm us right now. They are currently meeting in session to facilitate that very real possibility.

I attended and participated in the first United Nations meeting on the Proliferation of Small Arms and Light Weapons several years ago in New York.

Ambassador John Bolton and his assistant Don McConnell were strong in their stance against any restrictions on limiting the manufacture, sale, and transfer of legal weapons -- threatening even to walk out if these issues were brought up.

Many of the UN member nations and IANSA (a rabid anti-gun NGO) were very angry with the U.S. for standing its ground on this issue; and because of the consensus nature of resolution passage at the UN, fortunately nothing was agreed upon. UN Secretary General Kofi Annan lamented at the end of that conference, "We failed this time, but this is just the beginning."

A Democrat U.S. president might just hand them that victory.
