There was no national Republican star born last night or standing on stage. There were “NOT OBAMAs” on stage. If the current slate of contenders is it, and if someone can't grow into the kind of candidate and president this country needs, we are in big trouble.

We don’t need a national star on stage running for the office...we need a strong person who is a leader and first of all loves America and respects what the country is all about. Best are the Governors of our states who deal with it all on an everyday basis. We have had enough of B Obama, his vacationing wife and V. Jarrett his prime advisor, also not a natural born citizen!! Rick Perry did just fine by taking the bull by the horns. If he wins this race, we will give him our full support.

Are you kidding ...any one of the current contenders could beat the big Zero and are eminently more qualified!!!

I did not expect any GOP “stars to be born” on an MSNBC forum. It was framed as a “gotcha” attempt to decimate Rick Perry and it didn’t work.
