Featured La La Land

Obama had an opportunity not only to improve relations between black and white but to inspire young blacks to make something of their lives instead of becoming prison inmates and/or impregnating young girls. Instead he has made everything much worse. I believe deliberately.

Before you start throwing the racist label around I live in a state with the only black Republican Senator and a Governor whose parents were immigrants from India. I would also note that Sen. Scott, when he ran for the House, beat the sons of former Governor Campbell and Senator Thurmond in the Republican primary. So don't be so quick throwing the racist label around!

 

I believe you have made a brilliant observation! But perhaps Zaac has an identical twin or could it be a clone!

 

Putting it politely as possible you really don't know what you are talking about. I was a Conservative Republican when that was a dirty word in the South and probably while you were still wetting your diapers!

I would have preferred another candidate than McCain in 2008 but relative to the Marxist Obama he was Conservative. He ran a poor campaign and refused to attack Obama, nor would he let his people do so. But voting for a third party is simply throwing your vote away.

I would have preferred another candidate besides Romney in 2012. Again compared to the Marxist Obama he was Conservative. He also had a proven record of success in the business world at turning failing businesses, and may I say the Olympics, around. Furthermore I was not voting for my pastor, preacher, or spiritual advisor I was voting for president.

It is a fact that Obama has done more damage to this country than all other liberal democrats combined. He has taken the most powerful nation in the world and made it a puppet to a bunch of rag heads in the Middle East, Russia, China, and the laughing stock of the rest of the world.

He said he was going to fundamentally change America and he has done a masterful job.

 

Senator Scott is an exceptional man. His story is similar to that Of Dr Carson. he was headed the wrong way as a teenager. My understanding is that a white businessman talked with him and changed the direction of his life. He started his own business {I admire anyone able to do that.} was successful and then entered politics. I am proud to have him as Senator!

 

hack-speak or Zaac speak!

 

I just said you didn't know what you were talking about. We fortunately have a two party system unlike most western countries. We could be like Italy with half a dozen or so!

We have a primary nominating process. The person who wins is the nominee. It is generally agreed that Conservative voters usually dominate the primaries.

I suspect that Nixon, the 68, 72 candidate was more liberal than Ford the 76 candidate. Ford lost because: 1} Nixon lied! and 2} A lot of people were taken in by "Born Again" Jimmy Carter!

Republicans lost in 1992 because of third party candidate Ross Perot who got almost 20 million votes.

That is nonsense! Conservatives in the Republican Party began the have a stronger voice with Goldwater in 1964. Actually the influence of the North East began to decrease under Eisenhower when he recognized the South as part of the Union. Although Nixon was what I call a big government conservative he ran against two far left candidates in '68 and '72 and the Republicans were wise enough in 1968 to keep the democrats from stealing the election as they did in 1960. Nixon beat Humphrey by less than 1,000,000 votes. Third party candidate George Wallace got ~10,000,000 votes.

The primary process is what it is, Obama won basically for three reasons in 2008:

1. Bush never defended himself against the rabid criticism from the left so many people believed the criticism.

2. McCain ran a weak campaign. In the 2000 primaries he said he would beat Gore like a drum. When he won the primary in 2008 he hardly made a squeak against Obama and kept anyone else from pointing out Obama's problems.

3. Many people, especially young voters, wanted that warm glow by saying they voted for the first black president. Some are still looking for jobs I expect!

We lost in 2012 because a lot of evangelical Christians sat on their duffs and would not vote for that cult member. These same people voted for Carter in 1976 and look what we got!

If Paul wins the nomination I will support him. However, he has the same problem Obama has when it comes to confronting enemies overseas. I would never support him in a primary. He has some of the kookie libertarian ideas his father has! I hope Ted Bush does not run, I will not vote for him in the primary but would support him against any democrat. I just think 3 Bushes looks too much like a monarchy.

Carson, Walker, Kasich, Perry, Jindal, any Republican Governor, except possibly Christy, I could support in the primary. I prefer a Governor over a Senator.

 

I admire McCain as a war hero. His problem is not that he is a liberal, even a moderate. He just seems inconsistent in some things he does. I also strongly disagree with him, and Graham, and Rubio on that 2000 page comprehensive immigration bill they were conned into authoring by Turbin Durbin and Slick Schumer. Anyone who would get in the same room with those two is sure to get shafted!
