I’m not sure how you bringing up these “facts” is going to help get a conservative elected and get rid of Obama.

Face it. Perry has a significant chance of being the nominee. Assuming for a moment he is the nominee, what are YOU going to do?

Support him?, Vote for Him?


First, sorry, but I don't share your opinion concerning Rick "Open-Borders" Perry gaining the nomination.

Once the information of his checkered conservative past is fully vetted during this campaign, the base will turn away from him. He won't make it to the finish line.

Secondly, let's say by some twist of fate he makes it to the finish line; I'll have to make that decision then based on what else comes out about him. His Open Borders positions and support for Comprehensive Immigration Reform, however, makes it unlikely, because like GWB and McCain, he will be trying to push this over the finish line and this will destroy our country.

The best way to have a real conservative candidate is find the truth about each of them - the good, the bad and the ugly. People who want to sprinkle goody goody glitter on Perry aren't doing the cause of conservatism any good at all; quite the reverse.
