I can’t honestly think of a governor I would want as president.

Looks like Walker is bucking to be VP on Chria Christie’s ticket

I agree. The GOP has a lot of them right now, but I don’t think any are as stoutly conservative or charismatic as the circumstances require.

Cruz and Palin are the party’s top talent right now.

I admire Gov. Walker.

However ...

Unsurprisingly, he doesn’t seem to understand the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers.

More specifically, the federal government basically has the power to maintain the armed forces, negotiate treaties including trade, and make sure the US Mail gets delivered. Most things that the federal government does beyond those basic things is based on state powers which the corrupt federal government has wrongly stolen from the states.

So although his intentions are likely good, as a consequence of not knowing the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers, Gov. Walker is inadvertently helping to keep the unconstitutonally big federal government unconstitutionally big imo.

Mike Pence, maybe?

His position as Gov is just a resume builder.

I think we do not need any training presidents! We need people who have ran things. That would include the Likes of Huckabee, Palin, Walker, Perry and even Mitt Romney. Now, in some cases we might pick a general who has ran a big war or effort—Like IKE,

I can think of a former governor who would be a great president, and I hope American voters can make it happen.
