everything on the economy. He made some hard line points that tells me he will do whats right for the country and not what looks good politically.like_that;1738300 wrote:Any highlights?
The CNN panel this morning was literally foaming at the mouth over Trump.BoatShoes;1738433 wrote:Donald Trump is running second in Iowa and New Hampshire. Establishment Pubs are pulling their hair out but they can't figure it out because he is saying all of the things that the millions of talk radio listeners actually believe.
Probably because he is not a ***** and has no filter. He is going to say whatever is on his mind. It will make for great tv.fish82;1738439 wrote:The CNN panel this morning was literally foaming at the mouth over Trump.
He's not going to sniff the nomination, so I honestly don't see why everyone seems to have a stiffy over him.
Pretty much the #1 reason I like him. It's rare for a politician to listen to the people these days.HitsRus;1741799 wrote:I like Kasich,... maybe a little to much of a RINO, but he'd be a whole lot better than having a 'progressive' agenda rammed up our asses for another 4 years.

Clearly, he values what the "people" say, unlike others who continue to press an unwinnable position. He is a uniter, who will move the country forward, just as he has done in the state of Ohio.
I've had enough of a Prez that values his personal agenda more than moving the country forward according to the will of the people. I'm tired of being divided into groups and pitting the interests of one against the other.
Our president listens to the people. He finally lowered the flag today.like_that;1741815 wrote:Pretty much the #1 reason I like him. It's rare for a politician to listen to the people these days.
I like Paul as well. After that when it comes to solid governing I like Walker. I have a small issue with Kasich. But overall not a large problem. Would likely vote for him.like_that;1741796 wrote:Looks like the GOP has their 200th candidate in kasich. All being said I would take Paul first then kasich. I think kasich could do really good things with this country. He has a good track record.
And this is my small issue (not so much with Kasich). I am not a fan of direct democracy. Its a foolish way to govern. The average voter is easily confused by the legaleeze professional lawyers draw up in these "issues". I realize states have their own laws and that is fine I respect that but our founders established a representative republic. State governments are formed in the same manner but are not obliged to follow however. I understand Kasich standing down politically in this case.like_that;1741815 wrote:Pretty much the #1 reason I like him. It's rare for a politician to listen to the people these days.
I would take this over an arrogant prick forcing agendas down everyone's throat just to cement a "legacy."majorspark;1741846 wrote:And this is my small issue (not so much with Kasich).

That is why I said it was a "small" issue. In the grand scheme of what is happening politically today I agree.like_that;1741848 wrote:I would take this over an arrogant prick forcing agendas down everyone's throat just to cement a "legacy."
Don't be fooled that Kasich does not have a personal agenda that he has, and will try again to push....hard.HitsRus;1741799 wrote:I like Kasich,... maybe a little to much of a RINO, but he'd be a whole lot better than having a 'progressive' agenda rammed up our asses for another 4 years.
