Before we know it 2012 will be here, and I can't wait! I have a new hero who has been called many things – "The Donald," entrepreneur, real estate tycoon. I call him SMART. I watched his interview with Bill O'Reilly just this week, and I was blown away. He is exactly what this country needs, and my fingers are crossed hoping he officially decides to run for president in 2012.
When I first heard he wanted to run, I was extremely skeptical. Considering how vapid and shallow the Trump-led Miss USA Organization is, without a talent portion and basing most of its scores on looks, I was on the fence about him. I thought to myself, "No way is this guy serious." He's portrayed as cruel and heartless on "The Apprentice." How could this guy compete with the heavyweights? During the interview with O'Reilly, I realized he could actually turn this country around and give us the hope Obama couldn't deliver.
People assume Trump is all talk, but he has walked the walk. Maybe not for the country just yet, but for his company and his brand he has been successful at nearly everything. He isn't just some shlub celebrity that spouts off at the mouth every chance he gets. Sure, he and Rosie O'Donnell had their words, but that woman had it coming. He's educated; he's a businessman with his mindset on making the United States great again – and I believe he could.
"We take care of everyone else but our own," Trump explained to O'Reilly. He's absolutely right. We aren't the first thing on Obama's to-do list. He has to golf, play basketball, kiss China's behind, invade Libya, go vacationing.....

I know this about kentramsey, half his total posts are on this thread since he signed up in 2009.
Trump may be all over the place, but I find it hard not to like the guy.
Few posts but very high accuracy rating. Do not trust the “sudden” conservative. Do any of you recall a man named John McCain? He was a sudden conservative. So was Ross Perot. So was Arnold Schwartzenegger. So was Scott Brown. Sometimes conservatives are suckers because they tend to be nice, trusting people.
I know this about Donald Trump. All his conservative positions have appeared in the last two weeks.
As for Trump, people have all year and into the Republican primaries next year to vet him and size him up against all the other potential candidates...if he even runs. I want to see all these Republican candidates sized up in debates and on the stump. No candidate has my vote until next year. But what Trump is doing now by trying to expose Obama where the Lame Stream Media and this government is in denial, and when Trump finds out about Obama's past that they cannot deny, is a service to the country.
I know this about Trump, he is doing a job where the rest of the limp noodles across the country are not doing by cowering, trying to expose Obama as the usurper.
Got a link to his 2nd Amendment positions?
Drudge’s headline has The Donald as #2 in polling.

The America We Deserve, by Donald Trump, p.102 Google Books Link
That’s not a good thing. It was published eleven years ago though.
This should change that.
"... the goal should be clear: Our people are our greatest asset. We must take care of our own. We must have universal healthcare. Our objective [should be] to make reforms for the moment and, longer term, to find an equivalent of the single-payer plan...".
The America We Deserve, by Donald Trump, p.206-208 & 218.
Howboutthat?
Trump changing his politics in the last month or two, in order to pander to conservatives, shows he is not principled and can not be taken seriously. Trump is a slight variation on Romney... Giuliani... Schwarzenegger... Scott Brown... etc etc etc. ALL are liberal Republicans.
Trump was pro-choice until February.... 2011!. Now he's suddenly pro-life! LOL
So what is right.
That’s a killer.
Buh-bye, Donald’s political ambitions (at least as far as the GOP goes).
First Family?
That would be quite a change, wouldn't it? LOL
.
That made me lose respect for her too.
Any candidate is going to have to abandon PC, grow a pair and expose to America what Obama is- his early membership in a socialist party, his campaigning for the murderous Muslim/Communist, Odinga, his violation of the Logan Act, his being mentored by Communists, radicals and white/America haters..ad naseum.
I don’t see this happening. They’re all afraid of him.
I predict Obama vs Romney. Obama wins by a slim margin.
.
Yeah but that is because we are a one party country that pretends we have two parties. Divide and conquer right?
For instance, look at the budget debate between the two parties. The Republicans want a 60 Billion Dollar cut and the Democrats want a 40 Billion cut. Now last year the interest on Debt alone was 400 Billion.... So even a 60 Billion dollar cut is a joke.
The Republicans have become a center leaning left party. I know there are some good conservative Republicans. Nonetheless, these are not the same Republicans of 20 or 30 years ago. The Democrats are Socialist/Communist.
Time for a new conservative party. I really do hope the Tea Party continues to do well.
Jesse Ventura was an Independent Party Person, Trump with a be strict Republican and work with people in the Tea Party Movement and Sarah Palin. He might be a bit of a RINO on some issues but he’s not going to cave in to the Dems or the Socialists—He is a Capitalist first and a conservative second. I would vote for him in a heart beat—BUT, if he went 3rd party I would drop him just as fast. I still see him as Palin’s VP.
Look up his bio on wikipedia. He goes bankrupt every few years. Obviously he manages to enrich himself, but his companies all go belly up.
