I am Wondering who to support in the Republican primary and what in the candidates past is driving your own support
I have been looking at the candidates and wondering what past event has persuaded people to support them.
This is where I am for myself so far.
Trump has the most Charisma and hits every one of my concerns and shows he understands the problems of the country. (which ticks me off in a way that they know what is exactly wrong). The problem is I am unaware of anything he has done in the past to try and fix it.
Jeb Bush I remember when he was Governor of Florida. He did a good job and I agreed with him with fighting for Terry Schiavo.
Ted Cruz, he is another who says what you want to hear and he does have a track record. Other than supporting the freedom act, I just dont know what it is.
Florina I only know was in business and is an unknown.
Rubio I am sure has a record of accomplishments but not sure what they are
Rand Paul, For me personally he was the only senator I saw waving from the senate building the last time I was at the march for life. And I also agreed with him on keeping the government in check with snooping.
Ben Carson is pushing on the cultural issues and has hit a chord with many people but only know of his achievements as a doctor.
I would like to know what policy or past behavior of the candidates makes you want to vote for them. Please do not start listing all the things you dont like about the person since I am only looking for what they have done that makes you want to vote for them. Thanks
Truth.
You are kidding me? Well, what issues are important to you. Find the candidate that you find that most mirrors your position and run with him/her!
When the fire burns in your belly to defend The Constitution you won’t have to ask, you will know!
GREAT idea! I think we should all start a “What Kind of Gun Should I Buy?” thread.
I like Ted Cruz because he is consistently conservative and he doesn't apologize for being so. Also, he takes the time to explain his position, no matter who does the asking.
What state are you voting in?
Yeah, the Terry Schiavo thing gave it away.
A troll is a troll. Until proven otherwise.
This should be fun ...
By the way, I recommend Calvin Coolidge. He’s better dead than any of the current crop of politicians are alive.
Ditto.
Go to http://www.ontheissues.org/default.htm
That will give you all of the candidates positions on all of the issues.
I am a Trump supporter, he is concerned about the same issues I am, has the same positions I have, has had those positions since at least 2000. In addition, I have not heard anything negative about him from any of his employees or business associates which to me says alot.
you know, i believe youre on the up and up.
****************
I believe the up and up involves pulling some strings or tweaking for some fun. JMO
Troll looking for us to help them write a piece.
