"He has name recognition."

To who??
I have nothing against Paul Ryan but if you walked down the street here in Missouri and asked 100 people who Paul Ryan is 95 of them would give you a blank stare.

And thus, you have hit the nail on the head. People just do not educate themselves on presidential candidates. Thus, good, solid, deserving people either do not run or cannot get a foot hold because everyone keeps wanting the same ole, same ole, I.E. McLame last election. The RINO party needs new, younger blood for them to start getting too the younger individuals who we rarely get. The old folks on the majority are solid in their beliefs one side or the other and rarely change. You need middle to younger people, and I am not saying 21, 22 year olds. 30-50 ages. That is what they need to pull in. The young folks have all fallen for the give them everything for free. That has to change.

Right. None of these new people are at all well known enough.

He doesn’t have name recognition and he hasn’t shown a gift for crafting palatable positions and policies. He has zero executive experience, which is what you don’t want to send up against a sitting president.

Kudos to Ryan for being an earnest, wonkish and articulate congressman, but he’s no presidential savior.
