The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” — Author Unknown
I give 0bama 50-50.
This is a very poignant summary of the conditions existing in the USA today. I believe the dilemma facing the USA results from unbridled immigration policies over the years to be accommodating to many people from all over the world who are here legally and illegally not to be citizens of the USA Constitution but instead to propagate the the world from which they ran away from. My parents were immigrants and despite some rude encounters my brother who was killed on Okinawa and myself an over seas vet of WWII were always taught by our mother (father had died before I was born) that to be proud of the USA was the most important thing in our lives and this was during the very rough days of the depression.
I'd say 60-40 against Millard.
Reverse that for anyone else.
Millard can't unify the base.
When the left attacks his religion in 30 second sound bytes, those talking points will be the most many people have ever heard about Mormonism. They will accept the attack as truth.
And we won't be able to convince them otherwise, because when they attack things like blacks, indians and people of color like my son being considered cursed people through the 70's, it will be the truth.
And if people turn around and state "Oh, that's changed" the argument will come, "How can it change? Wasn't this dictated through magic seeing stones from the original lost texts that haven't been seen since the book or Mormon was written?"
Look, the Mormons I know are nice people, and I'll defend their right to believe and pursue happiness. However when it gets to the content and text of their faith in a legitimate debate, that's not my fight.
And it will become one during the election. Count on it.
This will not end well. Can you imagine if we have this crap with Trayvon Martin, even when there's a witness that says he was the attacker, imagine how would one defend institutionalized discrimination based on color?
Forget that...it even pisses me off.
Forget the fact that the only true measure we have of romney in a governing position is that he is a liberal sellout who embraces the left like a sweaty lover (end of sentence censored.)
I'm just laying out the truth here. If he wins the nomination, Mitt's going to get creamed and there's nothing we can do to stop it.
