Guest Post by Martin Armstrong
In 1920 the world watched as candidate Eugene Debs fought for the title of President of the United States. Eugene Victor Debs of the Socialist Party was found guilty of violating the Sedition Act during the Great War and was sentenced to 10 year imprisonment. Debs was nominated as his party’s candidate in 1920 despite being behind bars.
From his prison cell in Atlanta, Georgia, Debs campaigned with the help of speakers and messengers acting on his behalf. This was obviously far more difficult, given the technology of the time. Still, Debs won over 1 million votes or 3.4% of the popular vote. His imprisonment became a part of his campaign strategy and he even used his inmate number 9653 on campaign merchandise and flyers to remind the people of the cause he sacrificed his freedom for.
More recently, in 1992, Lyndon LaRouche campaigned from prison where he was serving a fifteen year sentence for conspiracy against the IRS. Like Debs, LaRouche used his inmate number as part of his campaign. He lost the Democratic Party nomination to Bill Clinton but garnered much attention due to his notoriety.
The US Constitution does not prohibit a citizen from seeking election if they are incarcerated or have a felony. Article II, Section 1, states:
"No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States."
The Founding Fathers never addressed the matter. Trump’s team has said that he will seek re-election despite any barrier put before him. However, he will face difficulties. Trump would be unable to travel, attend debates like the one that Biden finally promised to do, or campaign in person. He would need to rely on proxies to carry out his campaigning efforts on his behalf, and given the widespread support, he would find no issue in doing so. The real issue is that the establishment simply cannot risk a Trump presidency, and they will do everything and anything to prevent him from leading America.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis. So each time you visit the site, I would ask that you consider the value that you receive and have received from The Burning Platform and the community of which you are a vital part. I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive. Please consider contributing an amount commensurate to the value that you receive from this site and community, or even by becoming a sustaining supporter through periodic contributions.

We need to hang those communists who are doing this to Trump. You may be next.
It’s not about just Trump, it is about all their political opposition. Just look at the people they are trying and locking up.
Example. Grannies praying at abortion clinic getting ten years in prison.
Jane’s Revenge bombing and burning abortion clinic, they can’t find them as they happen at night when it is dark out. No prosecutions.
You are a little mixed up.
Jane’s Revenge is a militant, extremist abortion rights group that encourages and claims responsibility for acts of firebombing, vandalism, and arson in the United States. The group’s actions have targeted crisis pregnancy centers, a church, and a congressional office.
Their communication:
‘This was only a warning. We demand the disbanding of all anti-choice establishments, fake clinics, and violent anti-choice groups within the next thirty days. This is not a mere “difference of opinion” as some have framed it. We are literally fighting for our lives… As you continue to bomb clinics and assassinate doctors with impunity, so too shall we adopt increasingly extreme tactics to maintain freedom over our own bodies. We are forced to adopt the minimum military requirement for a political struggle’.
Who are those “we” you are talking about?
You party poopers always trying to ruin the surprise. I tell ya. Some people’s children.
Oh oh another narrative believer. Does anyone actually think there ridiculous trials are real and they’d jail their most successful puppet? Trump has trained for this role for a long time. Another write up that tries to validate elections. Fucking ridiculous.
Do you think Trump would voluntarily accept being bankrupted, imprisoned, humiliated and shamed just to serve a second term? Then you are an idiot. Trump is a narcissist, and a narcissist would never accept that.
I guess if they succeed in assassinating Trump you will say Trump was in on the plan?
‘ I’m with the felon” !
I’m with the “justice impacted individual”.
More Illinois shit. The low IQ Chicago state rep who wanted to make it illegal to stop speeders unless 25+ over the sped limit now has proposed three unpaid moving violations before the court can take away a drivers license. Low IQ’s seem very interested in “justice impacted individuals.” Low IQ’s have no new name for victims of justice impacted individuals. Do you suppose Governor Smirking Pig Face will try to arrest your States Attorney if he calls Rastusia or Jontraveonicus an “offender?”
I’m with the political prisoner.
I think that, at this point, we’re pretty much gonna demand it! Nothing else makes any sense here in Klown World Today. We’re all gonna be very disappointed if you set the table for us and then didn’t bring the meal. That’s how riots start.
Wow…how ironic, we had a Socialist candidate jailed and running for President in 1920 and 100 years later they imprison the patriots and install an ass puppet as President.
Debs was a great Man, I read his book: ‘Walls and Bars’, about his time in prison, very enlightening. One of my ancestors Eugene Field, who wrote the poem ‘Winken Blinken & Nod,’ was his friend. I am sure he never though Blinken would grow up to become secretary of the imposition of a communist totalitarian state, through all out total nuclear world war.
Having looked at Trumps’s natal chart, he has no future, except for misery and pain. Biden will no doubt be executed for his crimes.
Both of them have used up all their luck.
If we get a woman or tranny woman president most likley, there is no hope at all for us.
Amercia does not need a new president, it has no cure for the death that is coming.
It needs to purged of all evil and to make full repentence for all that evil has caused the rest of the world. Otherwise the punishment for past sins of the evil controlers of America will be it’s total destruction. However, if the US continues to commit the most agregious sins possible, such as it’s defence, participaion, consent,and praise and flattery and support, of the hell on earth taking place in Gaza, it will become the same or a worse hell very soon when its borders are completely opened to a total war, from which it will never recover. Starvation, torture and death of everything that was good and right and of God will come, instead of the purging of all that is evil. It must be one or the other, and those who think they are so good, are actually just enablers of evil, blind to the truth of what evil really is.
Mistaking evil for good, will be the USA’s final fatel mistake, one they are very good at making all through history. The american way has always been just lower your standards of what good is and devolve, and call it getting better and making progress foward into the new better future, which is litterally suicide, attracting and inviting death.
lower is not better, losing your moral, scruples, ethics and spirtual values, is the death of the soul. Only materialists who serve their own egos and other delusions, must kill their own souls to feel they are making forward progess, when they are actually devolving lower spiritually down towards Hell. That road seems so pretty and full of contentment, until suddenly the bottom drops out from under you which is always does like the sink holes warn us it will. Then you see the truth of where that road really led you.
It is ice cold, like your hearts, and completely dark like your minds and the soul is dead and gone forever. Like the USA. When the dollar and genacide Joe drop for the last time, so will america finally fall through that sink hole, gone forever. Unless we fight with our hearts, with truth, and do it for Love, with prayer to God as our master and guide.
It is not too late for Amercia to turn back to God and beg forgiveness for our wickedness and sin, but eventually if we wait too long, it will be too late.
I am sure that Israel, Russia, and China won’t warn Washington DC, before they nuke it.
It doesn’t matter who gets elected, or not, they will nuke DC first for sure, saving them all that money they pay them, it’s all in the banks for them to take back, because that is how they do it every time the take down a nation: the Rothschild way to always get back their investments. Pay the big players, hide the money in their banks for safe keeping, kill them all in the war, then get it all back. What they really want is all the reserve GOLD, in the USA, of which we hold the most in the entire world. Then they will go for the physical wealth in gold jewels, etc, here, in India in their Hindu Temples, and also in the Vatican.
Watch and see, oh sorry, no electricity, no internet no one will know what is happening, how convenient for the Rothschilds who always do their evil deeds under darkness in tunnels at night.
