Actually, it's Sarah Palin or Paul Ryan's "turn" based on tradition, Dick.

I could go with Pence\Rand but Rand would probably crush Pence in the primary before that ever came to pass.

I am a huge Mike Pence fan and could definitely get behind him. That said, calling Cruz a Washington insider is a little silly. Pence was in Washington for a number of years before returning to Indiana. Cruz was Texas’s Solicitor General and has spent a career taking on Washington.

I’d vote for either one.

Just one glance at a picture of Pence tells me he couldn’t win.

I can always tell a winner at a glance.

Yes, we certainly wouldn't want a first-term rookie Senator to skip to the head of the line.

Oh.....wait.

Remember, if patriots forced the federal government to work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers, then probably nobody would want to be president anyway. That’s partly why the Founding States established the electoral college to elect president.

In other words, the only reason that corrupt politicians try to get themselves elected to the Oval Office or Congress is to follow the tsunami of illegal federal taxes to DC, taxes which Congress cannot justify under its Secton 8-limited powers. Such politicians get themselves elected by exploiting low-information voters who do not understand that much of the promises that federal politicians make to get themselves elected are constitutionally indefensible.

“Assuming the Democrat ‘product' is going to be Hillary Clinton this time

Didn't everyone assume Hitlary was going to be the candidate in 2008. You know what happens when you assume?

I will not support Rand Paul. He is proving himself to be a go along to get along liberal. He arrogantly talks down to social conservatives. No thanks.

What is this bilge about it being someone’s “turn”? WE need a man like Ted Cruz now! How did Dole’s, McCain’s and Romney’s “turns” work out? Bob

Rand Paul will never make it to the White House. The MSM will constantly hang his father around his neck.

I am always going to prefer a sitting/former Governor of a state in the Oval Office. If you can show me that you can successfully run a state in a conservative manner I would be more willing to trust you with national command authority. I do not trust current/former legislators with the reins of government. Legislators are trained compromisers, not trained leaders. The prime example is, of course, the train wreck currently occupying the Oval Office.

That being said, I do like Ted Cruz's total brass in facing down the enemy. He needs to get elected Governor of Texas for a term and then run for POTUS. If he can keep his integrity, courage and values through all that he would be a dynamite candidate and a great President.
