Bush was 0-3 when it came to his Treasury Sec. appointments. Fiorina would be an improvement over Bush & Obama's picks, but only because there's nowhere to go but up.

It's all about the cards we're dealt. When the choice was Romney, Newt,Loon Paul, or Santorum, I went with Santorum in a heartbeat. If the choice is Ted Cruz, Scott Walker, or Santorum... sorry Rick, better luck next time.

Fiorina is just being hyped into being something she's not. I had similar issues in hindsight with Paul Ryan, but at least he had a consistent track record of winning.

Somewhere in this is no mention that if she were to create a 39 or 49, I forget, honestly, behemoth of compaq and hp, she would collect a bonus from both. We (the accused deadwood that we’re accused of being here on FR) watched her collect her bonus by adding cpq and hp gross sales together and made her bonus. What was that? About $19 mil? Andrew C. got that running hud into the ground. And enough to run a campaign for gov of ny. For the rest of you deniers, did you know that hp paid for her cross-country shipping of her sailboat? Ironic that it may cross-country ship yet again.

"“Great. Her campaign as a Republican is to give more weapons to muslims"

When muslims are killing muslims, give them more weapons and ammo.

Certain CEO’s have a specialty in cutbacks and they’re hired for that reason.

If I remember correctly, HP was a manufacturer of electronic equipment for the industry in the 1950’s/60’s with emphasis on military electronics before their adventures with the PC industry. I’m quite sure that they had built up quite a complement of military-industrial overhead that needed quite a bit of culling the herd.

She very much supports globalization, outsourcing jobs etc...

And she did it as CEO of a multi-national.

It may have been a requirement for the long-term health of the company. She didn’t create the economic climate that she had to compete in. Therefore, I don’t feel I know enough to judge her performance at HP.

I am okay with free trade with some nations. However, it must be fair trade.

Again, I really don’t know enough about her to say either way. There are some candidates I currently like better and that includes Cruz.

The HP herd you refer to were culled to Agilent, a company formed to take over HP's instrument business. They are doing quite well.

Fiorona is an incompetent clown like most of the Washington establishment. Her proposals vis-à-vis the Islamic state are as juvenile as the moronic liberals who think more government money will fix everything. To destroy the Islamic state will mean recognizing Assad’s continued right to rule Syria. To overthrow Assad means the further expansion of Sunni fundamentalist power in the middle east. One path is mutually exclusive of the other. To claim otherwise is patent nonsense akin to a whore claiming technical virginity. The entire Washington establishment is speaking with forked tongues because they actually do not want to do anything about Isis at all. One cannot speak of the Vietnam war without mentioning the role of the Soviet Union and PRC in backing the Vietnamese communists yet Isis has apparently seized half of Iraq and Syria after manifesting from the desert air. Simply put Isis is the catspaw of the Gulf petrostates and Turkey. They keep the former funded and supplied and allow and even actively facilitate the entry of Jihadists into the war. The Islamic state exists because the Sunni’s want it to, believing it to be a useful tool to roll back Shia in general and Iranians specifically. The US has the capability to roll back and destroy the Islamic state in weeks if it wanted to. It does not, so everyone is making pious sheep noises about Isis barbarism while the enablers continue to keep giving them money. Idle hands are the devil’s playthings and in this case the rich petrol sheiks have decoded that Jihad is a worthwhile activity instead of working for a living. It will be interesting to see if the Gulf states and Turkey can keep the crazies on a leash to direct them against targets of their choosing or if will slip free and eventually behead them in turn for insufficient zeal in Mohammedanism.

You do realize that precedent now strongly favors “natural born citizen” being analogous to “natural born subject” in the sense of Blackstone’s reading of English common law, not “natives” in the sense of Vattel, so your continuing to dwell on the dual jus-soli/jus-sanguinis requirement is not particularly meaningful.

They’re trying to fight for their lives, not coming for us. Besides the ones that are our enemies are being armed by Obama. Where have you been?

It does, doesn’t it. But thats what ‘history’ did with muslims. Killed and or conquered for the most part, from the crusades through the British Empire or contained until recently. There were no 9/11 type scenarios (relative to their time) and no Sharia spreading throughout the world.

Who is helping him? The GOP. Who turned out to be ISIS? Moderate Muslims. Whose weapons are being used to kill innocent Christians? Ours. Who is responsible? The people who elected them.
