I could easily vote for a Scott Walker/Rand Paul ticket in 2016. Two constitutionalists in the White House? Wow, we have not seen such a thing since. . . the Harding/Coolidge ticket during the 1920 Election.
My current political hero is Scott Walker. He got elected on conservative principles, applied those conservative principles, turned the State of Wisconsin around economically, survived a recall election after taking on the unions, and then got elected again, all in a four year span, and all in a blue State.
He did not back down, and he did what he said he would. A relentless, principled conservative in the Republican Party? Absolutely. Which is exactly why the establishment will fight tooth and nail to keep Mr. Walker down.

I don’t believe Rand Paul is a constitutionalist and Scott Walker is for Amnesty. Both deal breakers for me.
TED CRUZ 2016
Walker would be great.
Not so sure about RP.
I’m just looking forward to a POTUS that isn’t an Ivy Leaguer.
I think RR was the last one, he did pretty well.
While my first choice is Ted Cruz I could get behind Scott Walker. As long as he appointed Ted to the Supreme Court!
Walker took on the government employee unions and caught hell for that. Walker did the right thing.
But what’s he going to do about Amnesty and illegal immigration?????
Is he going to close the border and enforce the law including sending people back where they came from or he is going to say we need some sort of bipartisan “reform” that is Amnesty by another name????????
Ted Cruze 2016. Like the ring of that.
He’s my first choice.
Give us a break from the Ivy League.
Even if it’s only 8 years.
Sen Ted Cruz also supports temporary legalization status in the immigration bill
On Immigration, Cruz aims for middle ground
Cruz cannot be trusted on immigration.
No thank you.
I was working for a public employee union in CA when Walker’s recall was going on. The union was giving money to his opposition of course, and I gave the measly dollars I could afford to Walker.
I don’t think any politician is going to agree with me 100% of the time, so I prefer to see their record, among other factors, before I make judgment.
And if King Obama refuses to vacate the throne?
Na ,stay in Wisconsin and drive the Unions and Democrats crazier for a few more years , LOL
He can do exactly what Eisenhower did. Enforce the border and aggressively deport those he catches, then send the word that deportations will continue and employers hiring illegals will be punished. With a firm hand from day one it’ll send an unmistakable message and only a few hundred thousand will have to be actually deported. Millions more will choose to self-deport.

Operation Wetback was the name back then.
I cringe every time I hear Wisconsin referred to as a Blue State. Madison & Milwaukee are Blue but the rest of state is pretty damn Red.
I did too. He’s not Ivy League (good), and fought back against the union tide in a studied and meaningful way.
I don’t think Walker would commit himself to that. I wonder if any Republican would.
Australia is faced with illegals who use boats and the boats are being turned back and others are being emptied of passengers who are transported to centers in New Guinea and other South Pacific islands where their cases are considered with some being deported back to their home countries.
Australia under PM Tony Abbott is doing something a lot tougher than the US is and perhaps we should look there for policy and look to a new political party in this country to advocate for such a policy.
The Deportation Party....I like it.
