Laura Ingraham: Sen. Jeff Sessions Should Run for President (Not so fast, Laura)
breitbart ^ | 3/4/14 | m boyle

Posted on 03/04/2014 2:08:34 PM PST by bestintxas

Nationally syndicated conservative radio host Laura Ingraham said on Monday morning Senate Budget Committee ranking member Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) should run for president. Ingraham’s comments came after she played segments of Sessions’ keynote address, given at the Tea Party Patriots' five-year anniversary event last Thursday evening.

“Jeff Sessions, we need Sessions for President,” Ingraham said. Elaborating, she continued:

Really, is there anyone out there who is better than Jeff Sessions on any of these issues? He’s great. I think someone like Sessions could probably attract Democrats, Hispanics who are here legally who are tired of these stupid trade agreements and who have had their own wages undercut by illegal immigration, African Americans, certainly I think a lot of Tea Party people. Sessions is one of the few people to actually say it like it is. Last week during that keynote speech, Sessions called on the Republican Party to start offering policies that help ordinary Americans and to ditch special interests like Wall Street and Silicon Valley figures attempting to influence the party’s policies.

“I believe the Republican Party needs to sever itself from this elite consensus,” Sessions said during that speech. “We need to break it off. Wall Street, we love ya. Davos, hope you have a good time over there. But we’re going to be representing everyday Americans by the millions.”

BS. I’d vote for Sessions in a heartbeat. I’d go back to sending out the max donation to a GOP candidate. I’d go back to making phone calls and standing on the corner with a sign convincing anybody that was convincible to vote for Sessions.

>> This sounds a lot like Southern speak

Political etiquette with a South’n ta’wang.

Jeff Sessions is great. He’s been my distant, adopted Senator over the years.

Sessions was the third man standing next to Lee and Cruz back in September when Obama and Reid shutdown the govt.

Ok, so what part of ‘he was sure that Mr. Holder would be “a responsible legal officer and not a politician.”’ did you not read?

Sounds like someone who does not know the people around him doesn’t it?

BTW, I have the same problem with Ted Cruz.

Did you happen to notice what I said about Senators trying to be Presidents?

A Senator is hired by the people to offer an opinion, that’s all. He does not need to be right, just blather and vote.

Ted Kennedy way wrong 99% of the time. He would not make a good president.

Very very few sitting Senators make the Presidency.

So Rick Perry would be a better president than Cruz?

Bush would have been better than Pat Buchanan?

Pat McCrory is the best governor to run for president imo. Scott Walker is for cheap labor.

Gov. Pat McCrory on Wednesday accused unnamed High Point manufacturers of pushing for a loophole in state law so they can hire illegal immigrants instead of American citizens.

It sounds like you don’t have the sense God gave a rabbit.

“How would you know?”

fact 1: Jeff Sessions approved Holder as AG
fact 2: Jeff Sessions uttered those words
fact 3: Only two Presidents have ever been elected as sitting Senators, Harding and Kennedy. Neither were exceptional.

Where are your facts that this Senator will make a good President? He has already thrown mud in his face after accolades for Holder.

Other posters adequately explained to you that Sessions’s comments were polite and didn’t indicate that he supported Holder.

You are either disingenuous and have an agenda or you are a dope. In your case I’m betting it’s both.
