Who would you support in 2012: President Obama, Donald Trump or Sara Palin? (Poll to FReep)
The Palm Beach Sun Sentinel ^ | January 10, 2011 | The Editorial Board

Yeah, it seems real early to talk 2012 elections, but The Donald made such a discussion too hard to pass up.

Donald trump told Fox News last week that he is considering a run for the White House next year. If he did, it would create a mega-high profile list of presidential hopefuls, including two candidates with reality TV credentials, Trump and former Alaska Gov. Sara Palin.

And let's not forget the current White House resident, President Obama, who still has star power among his legions of supporters.

So, who'd make a better candidate?

What do you think?

If my choices are Obama, Trump and Palin, obviously I’ll pick Palin.

Obama is an absolute fool.

Trump is a new York Liberal.

Please, what a dumb poll.

There is only one name that I could pull the lever for in good conscience in that list. She would be the only choice.

....the poll is designed to limit Palin popularity amongst conservatives. It's one of those if you had a choice between 1....2...or 3......which one OF OUR people would you choose...stacking two against one as far as conservatives are concerned. Taking polls like these only strengthen libtards arguments.

The biggest reason why I support Palin is that anyone else is just a shallow grandstander looking for power, money and fame.

There is no situation in which I would vote for “President” Obama, not even as the lesser of two evils. Palin in 2012 and again in 2016 is my vote, although I would be happy with DeMint or with Bachman.

Universal health care and more gun controls don’t seem to me to be conservative issues.

Trump :

” I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record. “

You are right about universal health care . He is conservative on many other issues , though .

Tieing backround checks into new government data banks does not bode well with me.

He is still a New Yorker and hence his conservatism is not mine. Heard of Scott Brown?
