Just because you make speeches and rally crowds doesn't mean you are ready to take the most powerful seat in the world.

Our Founders would be disappointed in you. They wanted common people to hold office. Training to be a Doctor, or an Engineer or a whole host of professions is much, much more difficult that being President.

The average Freeper would make a fine President. We would surely not sign bills that go against the Constitution. We would surround ourselves with staff that puts America's interest first.

The two Bushes, Clinton and the Marxist have been disasters with regard to limited government.

Only the left thinks you have to be some God like person to assume office. That's B.S.

Read the Constitution, the actual duties of the President aren't that difficult.

I'm not sure how my opposition to Palin became an attack on the founding principles but I'll oblige.

We live in a much different time than what was seen back in the early 1800s and I would argue that at this moment, we in fact do have a common person in office and we are paying dearly for it.

The founding fathers simply wanted a system where the people would decide who would represent them, there is no stipulation that experience and intelligence need not be required.

I don't want a god, I want someone who can pull us back from the abyss. I don't believe Palin is that person.

My opinion only, which seems to make me a leaper on a site tagged “free” republic.
