    It's been a long time since I had the option of
    actually voting for a candidate. It seems as of
    lately voting against a candidate is the best I
    can do.
    I know you moral high grounders will continue
    to not vote, or vote for that guy that no chance
    in all of creation of winning, and that's what
    put us where we're at now.
    I do understand though that everyone has to do
    what they can live with.[B)]

    I find myself more and more voting against someone not for someone. I hope my options are not Jeb or Hilary. If it comes to that Jeb would get my vote.[V]

    That said I don't plan on voting for him in the primary's I will vote for the most conservative candidate that comes as close as possible to what my views/values are and who I think will be a good leader. Once the primary's are over and my candidate is destroyed I will vote against the most Liberal of the two running that has even a smidgen of a chance to win.[:(!][:(!][V]

    But right now I don't even know who is running. I assume Joe Biden will run as he is the VP. He will not get my vote under any circumstances. I will be voting against him.[V]

    Bush and Huckabee's names seem to be mentioned far too often as possibilities. Both are nothing more than BIG government republicans.

    New blood. Preferably an outsider.

    Trump 2016 [:D]

    -

    Trump says he could pressure Japan into accepting U.S. goods by saying 'Fellas, you're gonna make this deal, or we're putting a nice big import tax on your cars that are pouring in'

    Trump castigated former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush for seeming soft on immigration with a recent comment that some people sneak across the U.S. border as an 'act of love'

    Trump singled out Secretary of State John Kerry for a round of mocking after his statement Friday in a closed-door meeting that Israel risks turning into an 'apartheid state' if no peace settlement with Palestinians is reached.

    A recording of Kerry's remarks, smuggled out of a meeting of the secretive Trilateral Commission, quickly made the secretary of state toxic and defensive.

    What does Mr. Trump think we should do about all the Jap cars and trucks that are (mostly) sourced and built right here in the US?

    Many of them are more American made that my '12 Fusion.

    I believe most of those are in fact imported. The US factories just assemble large pieces already imported.

    But, the tariff would be against all Japanese companies if they do not support free & fair trade practices.

    I have gotten to the point if the Republicans nominate another mainstream big government statist, I will leave my Presidential ballot blank.

    There are those who will scream up and down that I would be just giving the Presidency to the Democrats, and to that I say, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? Elect one statist or another. In the end you have a statist in the White House.

    I've held my nose for the past two elections and got nothing except a nosebleed.

    To heck with it.

    "It comes from a very ancient democracy, you see..."
    "You mean, it comes from a world of lizards?"
    "No," said Ford, who by this time was a little more rational and coherent than he had been, having finally had the coffee forced down him, "nothing so simple. Nothing anything like so straightforward. On its world, the people are people. The leaders are lizards. The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."
    "Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
    "I did," said Ford. "It is."
    "So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't people get rid of the lizards?"
    "It honestly doesn't occur to them," said Ford. "They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates to the government they want."
    "You mean they actually vote for the lizards?"
    "Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
    "But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
    "Because if they didn't vote for a lizard," said Ford, "the wrong lizard might get in. Got any gin?"

    Jeb Bush was a two term Governor here in Florida, he was a great governor (check his record) and I would vote for him in a heartbeat.
    Judging him by his last name is a poor and narrow minded approach to viewing him as a presidential candidate in my opinion.
    It will be interesting however, to see who the Republicans finally endorse for the office.

    I will vote for anybody that's not a Democrat. Any Republican. So they suck too but not like Dimocraps.
    Sorry to hurt any feelings, but all your moralizing does not change the fact that you are a fool if you help the Dimocraps by wasting your vote just to appear to be noble. They will love you for that. And laugh at your stupidity.

    I've heard and read Jeb Bush did a good job in Florida. Though not perfect by a long shot, he would be less dangerous than Mrs. Clinton. And people can fail to vote or vote for third-party candidates all they want, but the fact remains the winner will be either a Democrat or Republican. Considering what we have now, could Bush be any worse? (Yes, I know that's perhaps a defeatist attitude, but I'm willing to take a chance on a Republican, any Republican, doing less harm than the current Democrat.)

    Jeb Bush is a failure if for no other reason than not protecting Florida from mass-immigration. One-in-five Floridians born abroad..

    www.maptheimpact.org/state/florida/

    Cuba and Mexico both just open their prisons and send the criminals to the USA!

    Immigration is directly related to economic failure of the state and nation.

    Jeb is:
    a Catholic convert.
    a Knight of Columbus.
    married to a hispanic.

    All important to understanding his position on open borders with Latin America.

    So, I'm supposed to blindly vote for Jeb Bush just because he has a magic (R) next to his name when one of his major campaign planks is for giving illegal aliens amnesty, something I 100% disagree with?

    Nope. Not going to do it this time. I may exactly where all the anti-America haters in government and media want me to be. I'm disillusioned. I'm a racist, bigot, samephobe, hater without the resume because I believe hard work will get you ahead without preference to something as trivial as melanin.

    I'm done. Let's bury this place, so we can get where all the roads want to lead. Let's get down to the killing. Let's get to the end.

    What difference does it make anymore? Both parties apparently have the same goals, the only thing different is the path taken, the rhetoric used, and the manner it's presented by the media in order to guide the herd and garner a particular response.

    How about Scott Walker?


    Kind of odd that many of the other potential candidates for the Republican party are all second generation immigrants.
    I'll bet legal though.
    Maybe they are still striving to get ahead and still believe in America.

    SC Gov Nikki Haley (Indian)
    Bobby Jindal (Indian)
    Marco Rubio (Cuban)

    All of them say they are pro Second Amendment.

    Not for me. When the Chairman of the republican National Committee hails from the likes of Macon, Georgia, Montgomery, Alabama, or Vidor, Texas, I might give voting republican again some serious thought. I don't see that happening since that would give politicians a tolerable image.
    What's next?
