Nathan Deal is not running for President thank God. Now that Scotty is fading thank God for that. He’s a regional candidate and he’s typical GOPe middle of the roader. Not what is needed in the Whitehut.

So you are in favor of race baiting and racial division?

How exactly is Walker "fading" and what exactly makes him a "regional" candidate? He's probably more popular in GA and in the South than Deal is.

A typical "GOPer" doesn't kick union ass and save taxpayers billions of dollars and rescued a state that was in danger of turning into Massachusetts.

Walker has done great things in WI. There's a reason why he's running for POTUS and why Deal will turn GA blue.

No I think Mitt Walker is a nothing burger candidate who would have zero chance to win in a general election and if by some happenstance he won would be just another big government establishment RINO President.

Did that answer your question?

I hate to break the bad news but Trump is leading in GA and Mitt Walker has faded to fourth or fifth in the new NBC/WSJ poll released today.

I mean really did you watch the same debate I did? Walker was a deer in headlights.

So unlike most conservatives you want racial division and want our side to play the same games as the leftists.

BTW Walker has had astounding conservative success.

The 2016 presidential primaries are already underway? Damn, I didn't know that. I thought it was still summer 2015 and everybody is merely jockeying for position.

What's Wednesday's Powerball numbers?

Well cheer up Mitt Walker may not have a prayer of getting the GOP presidential nomination but he will still be Governor of WI for awhile. :-)

“I’m a Walker backer, but I will watch what he says concerning the race situation very closely. If he comes out as some sort apologist for black crime, I might have to find a new candidate.
It’s about time some candidate spoke the truth about black crime and general dysfunction and said it’s time for black people to quit blaming whitey for all their (self-generated) problems. It certainly won’t be a Donkey Party pol. I would hope it would be Ben Carson, but that might be hoping too much.”

That black crime and general dysfumction you mention can and should be laid right on the White House’s door mat.

This is about a person who has just commited a felony evades then attacks a police officer while leaving the crime scene and winds getting killed by the officer in a struggle over the officers gun. But the White House decides to portay him as a “ racist victim” of a police action because it fits in with its agenda of racial division.

Using the example of the Charleston church group is all very nice. But that group as are all the rest of US, victims of that policy. Until Walker decides to face this issue and confront it excoriating and denouncing the president and his party for promoting these divisions the country will continue on its downhill spiral. That means directly attacking them not pussyfooting around if he wants to win.

The real trick is in getting the agitators to settle down long enough for a conversation rather than a slug fest. All the good intentions in the world towards ISIS will still get you a bomb up your butt.

That said, we don't need to be divisive, but if we never respond to "complaints" with truth/compassionate truth, the dialogue never develops. If we do respond , we are "racist bigoted misanthropes"...

Obama has felt it necessary to mention Walker by name on several occassions (as has Hillary).

The Dems, Obama and Hillary know that Walker cannot be underestimated.

The regime through the so called mass media used Roof’s face page Confederate Battle Flag (CFB) picture as the inspiration for his Charleston murders.

But Roof also posted his “manifesto”. Which cited the the Zimmerman trial in where the regime through the use of “The Bully Pulpit” portrayed the attacker, Trevon Martin, as the “victim” of a racist white society which got falsely reported as ; “The cold blooded murder of Treyvon Martin because he was black”.

That was done some claim including this author to delay any Constitutional investigative action contemplated by Congress and has continued unabated by the regime in Missouri, New York, and Baltimore to a certain extent, ending in more deaths and destruction .

Those inflamatory victimization claims and the result were never challanged or corrected by the regime, MSM, or leading members of the political opposition. That policy has resulted in attacks of completely innocent, white,”hispanic” and asians by black youths who were led to believe justified because they’re “victims” of society. Like that of a visiting Austrailian young champion runner murdered in the US while jogging near a “hood”. It’s that reference in Roofs manifesto which the powers that be are concealing.

While there is no justification to Roof’s explanation who should get the death sentence. The duplicity and complicity of the democrats on these matters should not be given a pass. I would urge Walker “trump” Trump and take a firm stand against this missuse of his “Bully Pulpit”.
