I doubt the 2016 election will be held...I think Our Friendly MARXIST will cancel it!!

I said long before the election that if this man is elected, he has no intention of standing down. He may be force to, but he doesn't intend to leave on his own.

OK, is there anyone who doesn’t out there??

I'll take the first 400 people in the phone book over the lot of them.

That was said a lot about the Clintons too but it wasn’t correct.
I think Baraq would be happy to retire to a life on the golf course, and daily worship sessions on MSNBC.

No candidate will be good enough for many on here.

Name one that is. We have had only one since Roosevelt, hint he didn’t have Bush as a last name.

because of some new interpretation of the constitution they made up yesterday.

Are you absolutely nuts?

>> The amnesty brothers Rubio and Paul are just setting themselves up to split the conservative base. <<

That worries me as well. Rubio would be the 2016 version of Perry (establishment guy in tea party drag), with Rand Paul the libertarian guy in conservative drag, and they'd split the gullible conservative vote while Jeb Bush runs away with the nomination.

"...while the Democrats will do a better job 49 - 37 percent on health care, 49 - 28 percent on same-sex marriage, and 42 - 38 percent on immigration. "

Define "better job". What kind of ridiculous question is that?

Yeah, you’re right. There will be one issue or another that each candidate isn’t quite conservative enough on and the infighting begins.

I know too little about Walker and McDonnell to make a judgement at this time.
Christie and Bush are non-starters, Jindal has zero charisma.
At this time I am leery of Rubio the weather vane.

Rand has been prominent lately and I like what he has said. Ryan, liked him during the campaign.
Palin? really like but the MSM has done so much damage to her I’m not sure she could recover

To be fair though, that is a MAJOR consolation. Those who have not been conditioned to view gov’t benefits as a lifeline will pull through ok - certainly they will do just fine relative to those who ahve been conditioned to think they are entitled to everyone else’s money.

I’ll say this much - among Ted Cruz, Sarah Palin, Rand Paul, Ben Carson and, yes, Paul Ryan and Marco Rubio, if we can get any of them to win over Hillary and any one of them does win, the vast majority of American conservatives will not exactly be in mourning. In fact, by and large they will be doing backflips once they stop to fully reconsider what the alternative would be. They may get a lot of flak now, but just wait and see what the attitude is by 2016.

About Cruz and the birthers, so what?

Let them eat cake at the kiddie table while the adults elect a conservative President.

BTW is Walker not interested? He is never in any of these polls.

RE :”BTW is Walker not interested? He is never in any of these polls.

He's never going to sell any books or get TV contracts with FNC by staying out of that national limelight~ cameras. Doesnt he know that playing candidate =$$$$$ ? The MSM either is very gullible or they are part of the scam.

New Jersey Gov. Christopher Christie, who ran better than other Republicans against top Democrats in a March 7 survey of all American voters by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN- uh-pe-ack) University, gets only 14 percent of Republican voters today.
Florida U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio gets 19 percent of Republican voters, with 17 percent for U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, 15 percent for U.S. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and 10 percent for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. Other contenders are at 3 percent or less”

not again!

I will not support someone thinks that any citizen can be killed by the government at any time, for any reason. He argues that there might be some scenario that justifies drones. Why doesn’t he ask whether their usefulness justifies the trillions of dollars we are spending on the? Because he is 100% socialist. It’s time for socialists like him to stop getting a free ride.

I agree 15 years ago, this theory was not in existence. Some conservatives changed everything they believed in because of Obama. Show the continually evolving history of eligibility.
