I think that every Republican, two orangutans, and an apricot will be trying for the GOP nomination before it's all said and done.

Walker and Cruz, in whichever order, would be an excellent ticket to get us through the next 16 years.

I do not disagree.
I prefer a Cruz presidency, at the moment. But, it's early in the game. I could change my mind.

Walker has the creds for the job, and Cruz can talk a good game. I would like them both on a ticket against Hillary.

(shrugs) They're a'ight.
They both have credibility, and talk a good game, but I'm just tired of politics, politicians, butthurt-thin skinned moronic behavior, and money being the indicator of who wins.
I want a STATEMAN! Not a politician.

Better than anything else currently available.
Progressives/Liberals - Promoting tyranny and a defenseless people since 1913.

SHMIV. I have found Dave Brat to fit that title closer than any politician I have met as of late.
Mainly because he wasn't supposed to WIN!!!!!
A regular, highly educated guy took the prize. I think he would do a fine job.

Rev you would probably like Rep Justin Amash from Michigan and Rep Thomas Massie from Kentucky. Both are very consistent with their voting record and are average folks. Amash explains his votes on his Facebook page and has been ranked as the #1 rep to vote opposite of Pelosi. GOP leadership doesn't like him too much. lol Massie is a farmer and has fought against the EPA's regulations regarding wood stoves and has passed legislation to allow hemp farming to take place again in states that want to do that.

SB... indeed! I think they're two of the better ones as well!
I wish we had an influx of Statemens in that cesspool.
