I have to admit, so far I am not impressed with any of them. Yes I like Bachmann but she has no way of defeating Barry Hussain. As for the rest well.. EH?!? What is your opinion?

I am not so sure Michelle Bachmann cannot defeat Obama. The main obstacle is for her to get the nomination.
But if she does (a big IF, I admit), she has personal qualities that can make the difference. Another obstacle is that she will face hostile media that will try to ridicule her faith. There is also the issue of her being a woman, which may deter some voters who might think she is not fit to be the commander in chief for example. On another hand, she could turn the fact that she would be the first woman to be elected President into an advantage.
True, it is a long way, but it is not impossible.

Anybody but Obama.

There's really not one of them I'm completely happy with.

So far, I like Michele Bachmann the best.

Even Ron Paul....

I will vote for anyone but Obama so long as it is not Ron Paul. If Paul is nominated I will honestly sit-out this vote or possibly leave the country.

So far the only good candidate is Michelle Bachmann . But I have my doubts of her ever beating Barry 0 sadly.

BritishSword · « **Reply #8 on:** June 16, 2011, 09:49:39 PM »

Bachmann for the win!!! Its got to be!

MasterWolf1 · « **Reply #9 on:** June 17, 2011, 03:10:19 AM »

I hope you are all right about Bachmann,, but knowing hos cunning the lefties are.. And does she has that right fire power to defeat Bambo? Look how they are running after Palin and she isn't even in the race. Even though they did look stupid looking into her emails finding nothing to nail her on. Don't we wish they would of ran after all of Bambo's shady past and history the same way. No, with him everything got swept under the rug. Including where he came from and till now I am convinced he is from another country

None of them yet have done or said anything, which indicates they would be better [when push comes to shove] than George W. Bush who although he spoke nicer words to Israel than Obama, also pressured Israel to make suicidal concessions.
If someone has any proof that at least one of these politicians, will be better than Bush, please present it to us.
In any case now is the time to lobby them, to take pro-israel positions as I have written in another discussion thread.

I want them to stop illegal immigration and put a moratorium on legal immigration or at least restrict it if that's not able to be done.

Yes, in a doomsday scenario like that as much as I think Paul is a crackpot I would have to go with him...
I don't think it's possible for Ron Paul to gather the sort of support that he would need to ever get the party nod however if the choice was between Paul or the shvartza President I would have to sadly go with Paul... Some things are just to far fetched to even consider and I think Ron Paul getting enough support to even try an independent run is really way out there... There is really no sitting this next election out... The creature in the White House now needs to be shown the door in 2012 if the American people know whats good for them... If people sit this election out they had better understand that they might be tossing in the towel for keeps... As far as leaving the country a second term for this president will have worldwide implications... Like the old saying goes you can run but you can't hide.

I sure hope that Ron Paul doesn't win the nomination...

But today he won a GOP poll... This is not good...

That straw poll doesn't indicate anything. No worries here

So far I like only Bachmann and she is pro-Israel so I'm happy about that. I too have my doubts whether she could win over Obummer:(. I do not want to see him win the 2012. There doesn't seem to be many strong male candidates. Some of my youtube buddies want Ron Paul for 2012. Others - Alan West. Any thoughts regarding Alan West? Would he be a good candidate? Just wondering.

This is all I've found so far (just checked today):

cyphrinfinity · « **Reply #16 on:** June 19, 2011, 08:17:14 PM »

I just read that he's not running, but I wish he was. His speech was great (one on my last post before this) in my opinion. He is right in saying 'But now we need a lion to lead us'. If he would be that lion to lead America, surely it has to be better than who is in the office now!!!

Secularbeliever · « **Reply #17 on:** June 19, 2011, 08:59:35 PM »

It is too early for Alan West. He just got elected to Congress for the first time. Maybe in 2016.

To Alan West's credit he said as much himself when asked if he would run for president.

Paul always does well in these 'straw polls' since he gets his zombie followers to all take part in them, and is always overrepresented. I wouldn't worry.

The key is for the other GOPers to have Paul's fiscal policy, and not his wacko libertarianism and isolationism; then they will garner votes from the majority of America.

I think that if the economy continue to tank, the shvartza sultan in the white mosque is going to have tough time rigging the elections.

So you favor less individual liberty and more military intervention throughout the world?
