MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate, took part in a nationwide criminal scheme to coordinate fundraising with conservative groups, prosecutors said in court documents unsealed Thursday.

No charges have been filed against Walker or any member of his staff. The documents were filed in December as part of an investigation into alleged illegal fundraising and campaign coordination by Walker and his campaign, the Wisconsin Club for Growth, the state Chamber of Commerce and other groups.

White males are the most discriminated against group. Just because it is done ‘legally’ doesn’t make it right.

Michael 'Meathead' Stivic: Archie, you're violating his rights under the First Amendment. 

Archie Bunker: Whose side are you on anyhow, huh? Look at me, I know I got a lot going against me, I'm white, I'm Protestant, I'm hard-working. Can't you find one lousy amendment to protect me?

Oh, no, it was far worse than no charges filed. The Bush Administration did file charges against those NBPP thugs and had the case won. Holder had the charges dropped.

Sorry, Archie. No protection for you. But you get to keep working and paying taxes to support this country that hates you.

If all the white males would quit paying taxes, the country would collapse. We’ll be doing our part next year by retiring early. I wish more would do the calculations to see if they could do the same. The freedoms and pursuit of happiness the founders meant was not all about the relentless pursuit of material goods. Although the freedoms they created allowed for the fastest economic and technological growth the world has ever seen. But that was a byproduct of the freedoms, not the goal.

“He was found innocent...”

One is not found innocent. One is always innocent until proven guilty. Two judges agreed that SW was not guilty.

Actually, this will be brought up if he makes a play for the White House.

It isn’t evidence, it is the charges.

Yes, see, Gov. Walker is a criminal because Republican and Conservative groups raised a few dollars for him.

But Barack Obama is NOT a criminal, when he gave Al Qaeda America weapons, ordered the IRS to attack US political opponents, sent guns to Mexican drug gangs, abandoned a US ambassador in Libya, spied on AP reporters, failed to enforce laws he disagreed with in full violation of his oath, issued Executive Orders well out of the scope of what they can do, shipped 100,000 children illegally to America, changed Obamacare 27 times without Congressional Approval, and made recess appointments when nothing was in recess.

Y'see.

“maybe they fear a Walker/Cruz ticket?”

That would be a dream ticket for me. The GOP would never allow it. The dems must know they’ll run the weakest possible candidate.

This is a clear indication the dems see Walker as a threat to their White House ambitions. They know he’s successful, so it’s now time to create a false narrative. I notice how AP/Yahoo ingratiated them by juxtaposing his name with the word “criminal.”

The Republican governors in the Midwest states around Illinois (WI, IN, OH and MI) are making the Democrat moron, Gov. Pat Quinn, look even worse by contrast. Seriously, search “Pat-Quinn moron” in Google and you get 734,000 results.
