He came of an ancient plebeian family who all were noted for some military service but not for the discharge of the higher civil offices. He was bred, after the manner of his Latin forefathers, to agriculture , to which he devoted himself when not engaged in military service. But, having attracted the notice of Lucius Valerius Flaccus , he was brought to Rome , and successively held the offices of cursus honorum tribune (214 BC), quaestor (204 BC), aedile (199 BC), praetor (198 BC), consul (195 BC) together with his old patron, and finally censor (184 BC).

      Cato the Elder was born in Tusculum , a municipal town of Latium , to which his ancestors had belonged for some generations. His father had earned the reputation of a brave soldier, and his great-grandfather had received a reward from the state for five horses killed under him in battle. However the Tusculan Porcii had never obtained the privileges of the Roman magistracy. Cato the Elder, their famous descendant, at the beginning of his career in Rome , was regarded as a novus homo , and the feeling of his unsatisfactory position, working along with the self-awareness of inherent superiority, contributed to exasperate and stimulate his ambition. Early in life, he so far exceeded the previous deeds of his predecessors that he is frequently spoken of, not only as the leader, but as the founder, of the Porcia Gens.

also known as Cato the Censor The progress from quaestor to consul via offices of aedile and praetor was a natural one and came more quickly to men who had proved themselves able soldiers in times of war. However, no one man could hold the same office twice in ten years. Therefore, unless there was a provincial governor needed somewhere, some men could at the very height of their power suddenly find themselves unemployed. This befell Marcus Porcius Cato, a political leader of great integrity and determination, also known as Cato the Elder to distinguish him from his great-grandson.
Cato the Elder (the additive 'the Elder' is used to distinguish him from his grandson who also rose to prominence in Roman history and is known as 'the Younger') was born at Tusculum in 234 BC.
He grew up on his fathers country estate and entered military service at the tender age of 17. By 195 BC he had climbed the traditional ladder of magistrative offices to the its very pinnacle by achieving the post of consul. In this position he won a great victory in the wars in Spain.
Then in 191 BC he retired from the army and concentrated instead on participating in debates in the senate.

Executive summary: Roman statesman, hated Carthage Roman statesman, surnamed "the Elder" or "the Censor", to distinguish him from Cato of Utica From the date of his censorship (184) to his death in 149, Cato held no public office, but continued to distinguish himself in the senate as the persistent opponent of the new ideas. He was struck with horror, along with many other Romans of the graver stamp, at the licence of the Bacchanalian mysteries, which he attributed to the fatal influence of Greek manners; and he vehemently urged the dismissal of the philosophers (Carneades, Diogenes and Critolaus ), who came as ambassadors from Athens, on account of the dangerous nature of the views expressed by them. He had a horror of physicians, who were chiefly Greeks. He procured the release of Polybius , the historian, and his fellow prisoners, contemptuously asking whether the senate had nothing more important to do than discuss whether a few Greeks should die at Rome or in their own land. It was not until his eightieth year that he made his first acquaintance with Greek literature. Almost his last publlc act was to urge his countrymen to the Third Punic War and the destruction of Carthage. In 157 he was one of the deputies sent to Carthage to arbitrate between the Carthaginians and Massinissa, king of Numidia. The mission was unsuccessful and the commissioners returned home. But Cato was so struck by the evidences of Carthaginian prosperity that he was convinced that the security of Rome depended on the annihilation of Carthage. From this time, in season and out of season, he kept repeating the cry: "Delenda est Carthago."

(Vol. II) Plutarch, The Parallel Lives
The Life of Cato the Elder
The family of Marcus Cato, it is said, was of Tusculan origin, though he lived, previous to his career as soldier and statesman, on an inherited estate in the country of the Sabines. His ancestors commonly passed for men of no note whatever, but Cato himself extols his father, Marcus, as a brave man and good soldier. He also says that his grandfather, Cato, often won prizes for soldierly valour, and received from the state treasury, because of his bravery, the price of five horses which had been killed under him in battle.  The Romans used to call men who had no family distinction, but were coming into public notice through their own achievements, "new men," and such they called Cato. But he himself used to say that as far as office and distinction went, he was indeed new, but having regard to ancestral deeds of valour, he was oldest of the old. His third name was not Cato at first, but Priscus. Afterwards he got the surname of Cato for his great abilities. The Romans call a man who is wise and prudent, catus   As for his outward appearance, he had reddish hair, and keen grey eyes, as the author of the well-known

234 - 149 BC
" Censer Carthaginem esse delendam " or " I declare that Carthage must be destroyed ."
These are the famous words of Marcus Porcius Cato, spoken at the end of his many speeches while he was Censor of the Roman state. These words supposedly sparked the beginning of the Third Punic War that ended with the destruction of Carthage. Marcus Porcius Cato the Elder lived from 234 BC to 149 BC. Born at Tusculum, but growing up in the country of Sabines as a farmer, Cato, from the very beginning of his life, established his thoughts and feelings about the "simple life." With little formal education during his youth, Cato became a soldier, then tribune, then quaestor (treasurer) during the Second Punic War to fight against Hannibal and the Carthanians. Because of his bravery and success on the battle field his surname, originally Priscus, was changed to Cato. Catus for the Romans meant "skilled man." Back to "Roman Republic" Chronology

CATO THE ELDER
[a.k.a. Cato the Censor] Part 2 Part 3 Cato was born Marcus Porcius Priscus but, due to his abilities as a skillful orator, he became known as Marcus Porcius Cato. The Romans called an experienced or skillful man Catus. The Latin word catus means sharp intellect. Cato was also known as Cato the Censor for his monitoring of the behavior of public officials and his desire to extricate any Greek influence or capitalist ideas and to return to conservative Roman conduct and morality. As censor, he attempted to preserve old Roman ancestral custom, mos maiorum . He supported, in 181 BC, the law against luxury, lex Orchia lex Voconia . He is also known as Cato the Censor due to his austere scrutinization of Senate officials in 184 BC and the removal of those who he considered too liberal or open to new foreign ideas, and those who were extravagant or who he felt lived luxurious, immoral lives. Earlier, Cato was sent on a diplomatic mission to Africa to negotiate peace terms between the Carthaginians and Numidian tribesmen. While visiting Carthage he became disgusted at the wasteful indulgence and luxury, the wealth and power of the merchants and their thriving international trade, and he believed that Carthage posed a threat to Rome. Cato concluded every speech that he gave with the phrase, ato served as a quaestor under Scipio Africanus in 204 BC. A quaestor was a Roman official either in charge of public funds such as a state treasurer or army paymaster, or a public judge or prosecutor in a criminal trial. He served as an aedile in 199 BC. An aedile was a Roman official who was the superintendent of public works, monitored the public grain supply, was responsible for policing the city and maintaining order, and was held accountable for providing for the public games. He was an advocate of public works and supported the construction of the

Cato the Elder
Cato (sometimes called the Censor) lived from 234 to 149 BC and was one of the most prominent figures in ancient Rome. An accomplished soldier, politician and statesman, his contributions to the Roman world even without his published works are immense.
Though probably best known for his zeal to destroy Carthage and bring on the Third Punic War with the words "Carthago Delende Est"; to remember Cato for this alone is a terrible mistake. He produced many works and was the first historian to write a history of Rome in Latin. Unfortunately a great deal of Cato's literature has been lost to history, but that which remains is an invaluable resource. Works:
De Agricultura
(On Farming)
Not Surviving Works:
Origines (a history of Rome from the foundation though the Second Punic War)
Praecepta ad Filium (a collection of maxims)
Carmen de Monibus (a set of rules and philosophy for every day life)
A collection of over 150 speeches

born 234 BC , Tusculum, Latium [Italy] died 149 Roman statesman, orator, and the first Latin prose writer of importance. He was noted for his conservative and anti-Hellenic policies, in opposition to the phil-Hellenic ideals of the Scipio family. Cato was born of plebeian stock and fought as a military tribune in the Second Punic War. His oratorical and legal skills and his rigid morality attracted the notice of the patrician Lucius Valerius Flaccus , who helped him begin a political career at Rome. Cato was elected quaestor (205), aedile (199), and praetor (198) in Sardinia, where he suppressed usury. He was elected consul with Flaccus in 195, and as consul he unsuccessfully opposed the repeal of a measure restricting female extravagance ( Lex Oppia ). Then, in an extensive and bitter military campaign, he stamped out an insurrection in Spain and organized the province of Nearer Spain. In 191 Cato served with distinction under Manius Acilius Glabrio at Thermopylae in the war against the Seleucid king Antiochus III. Shortly thereafter he included Glabrio in his denunciation of the supporters of the Scipios. He then attacked

Why We Need A Third Party
Let's just say you should scroll down for an explanation:
The recent poll results from Democracy Corps just show we need a third (or even fourth or fifth) party in America. Having only two is an abomination. Parties are what America is all about. Besides, having only two means there are never any parties on my block. If you let me form a party myself, that will soon change.
Furthermore, note that neither party is addressing the real concerns of America. I understand that both parties say they want a drug-free America, but like P.J. O'Rourke said, if that's the case then I want my free drugs now. And don't tell me I'm confusing two different kinds of parties. Have you ever seen a political convention or a candidate addressing his supporters on election night? Streamers, confetti, balloons, alcohol. Count me in. We need as much of that as possible.
