Name a Christian conservative they have not “damaged”, or demonized.
Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until resigning in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and beat Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002, and won with 56 percent, to become Florida's first two-term Republican Governor.
During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating improvements in the economy, environment, and health care, as well as reforming the education system. He was also responsible for ending the Florida high speed rail initiative.
=================================
TEXAS might go for him.
How about a decent suggestion then?
It's just too easy to be negative. All those NEGATIVE waves, Moriarty.
Governor Palin dismantled part of the crony capitalist machine in Alaska. From the crony capitalist position she is the most dangerous person on the planet.
Governor Palin not only kicked them off the gravy train, she put a few in jail.
We need responsible adults in charge, not overgrown liberal adolescents with no common sense, beholden to liberal ideology no matter the consequences.
Lefty Libtards will be jumping ALL OVER this today before any of them realize that Massie is Black.
The liberals will work to destroy any strong conservative. What they have done with Sarah, they will do to any other strong conservative who emerges. If we play that game, then we will never get a conservative due to fears of liberals and the media.
White - don’t care, matters exactly zero to me.
Christian - preferable, but in the end irrelevant as long as they don’t pursue an anti-Christian agenda.
Conservative - yes, please. One who actually acts conservative, not just talks it
Most importantly, though, we need someone who not only will refrain from abusing the power of the state to impose an agenda, but someone who will start rolling it back. I want the President to be a large figure internationally, but a small one at home.
NO WE WILL NOT VOTE FOR JEB
To tell you the truth if Rick Perry ran I and many others would vote for him..I would love to see Palin/Perry or the other way around..To me either one would try to get this country back to the old AMERICA we once knew..Perry has been our governor for many years and look where we are here in Texas now..
yeah, the ‘white’ part is pretty moroninc.
Indeed the media has tried to bash Sarah. They have called her every name in the book. However, nothing has stuck, as she proves by her actions that all they say is wrong. The great “They” will say hate filled things against any candidate we send up. With Sarah we already know the skimpy,unfounded, misinformed, and silly stuff they will throw. I think we can fend them off, for we already know their game plan and its flaws.
One who has been gifted by God with leadership skills is key...as I stated previously. That entails the skill set needed to govern wisely.
I’d just like to see someone capable of doing the job.
No Carson. 2nd Amendment disqualification.
Cruz/Palin. Hat tip to your Kellys Heros line. What a great movie. LOL Shermans going up against Tigers.Insane
and what I am saying is in the hunt for that person, many have screwed up totally by being blinded by the outward, and sometimes phony, profession of faith on the part of those. We as voters are NOT capable of determining this, and evidenced by recent mistakes.
Bush was awful.
Santorum or Huck would be AWWWWWWFUL!!!
So tell me, who in your divinely inspired wisdom IS this person???
I don’t have anyone firmly in mind yet (though I very much like Ted Cruz). I AM asking God to grant us such a leader.
I am also praying that the people of this nation wake up and repent and turn back to God.
"Reckon I'm gonna have to go along with it joe……" (speaking of Kellys Heroes moments…)
I am also praying that the people of this nation wake up and repent and turn back to God.
I favor Cruz at this point, tho I'm focused on 2014 - because if we don't turn back the Dems then, it won't matter. (may not matter if we do, but it doggoned sure will NOT matter if we don't.)
Now, to your second point: that's a separate issue really. The church in Acts did not overthrow the Roman occupation.
