Thomas Sowell favors Scott Walker and Bobby Jindal because of their accomplishments.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconssin interest ping list.
Best accomplishment too come is to graciously drop out.
I just watched this on the show’s replay.
bttt!
"....Governors with superb records -- such as Bobby Jindal in Louisiana and Scott Walker in Wisconsin -- may not have much name recognition on the national scene. And certainly the little sound bites in the so-called debates are not likely to tell the voters much.
This is not just the candidates problem. With this country facing historic dangers, both internally and internationally, we urgently need to find someone with depth, insight, and courage as the next president of the United States.
But, with the media obsessed with Donald Trumps show biz talents and persona -- and covering everything he says, does, or might do, 24/7 -- how are the voters to sort through the large number of Republican candidates to find a couple that are worth getting to know more thoroughly?
It will be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. And never was finding that needle, the right leader, more important for the nation.
Internally, we are so polarized over immigration that our current leaders have left our borders wide open to terrorists from around the world, rather than take the political risks of offending voters on one side of this issue or offending voters on the opposite side. Instead, they risk American lives by their inaction.
Internationally, our leaders have written a blank check for our most dangerous and fanatical enemy -- Iran -- to get both nuclear bombs and the missiles to deliver them. And the Obama administration, with a track record of huge shameless lies, offers us its reassurances.
We had better find that needle in a haystack, someone who can salvage a desperate situation. Flamboyant rhetoric is not enough."
Walker seems to prefer being on the ropes instead of taking a more "energetic" approach and might not fight well. Jindal would probably run a good end game but I really have no solid sense of his real fighting abilities.
GO CRUZ!!! Keep it up Trump!
I would agree with Sowell... I was a bit disappointed with Walkers performance during the debate as he seemed flat. Then again, it became a Trump circus to a large degree. I am not a Trump fan whatsoever...I think he’s a media opportunist.
It’s great when you come to the same conclusions as Thomas Sowell
Agree.
