"Look at all these responses! Trolling for ¡Jeb! on Free Republic is so much fun!"

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 don’t 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 don’t like about the person since I am only looking for what they have done that makes you want to vote for them. Thanks
When I referred to holding our noses, I meant to register as Republicans, not the voting for Trump part.
Umtil proven otherwise...the Magilla should have been a giveaway
No doubt dazzled by our brilliance
They are all “Christians” when they want to get elected.
Trump is a shallow showman with no evident grasp of the Constitution, a boorish bloviating blowhard, a poll-obsessed narcissist, a reality-show entertainer, a crony capitalist who has admitted to trying to buy off politicians, a gambling-casino billionaire, and a longtime liberal on social, moral, and political issues. I do not trust him for a New York minute.
Rubio has some good points, but he needs to clarify his views on what to do with illegal immigrants who are here in this country. Until that happens, I am not ready to support him.
Dr. Carson I call "Human Anesthesia." A nice, smart, soft-spoken black guy that white Republicans can feel good about liking. The Three Amateurs, Trump, Carson, and Fiorina, are in over their heads. The presidency is not an entry-level position.
Huckabee and Jindal have some good points, strong on social issues, but seem to have little to no electability.
Bush. Meh. Not happening.
The rest are mired down in Patakistan.
LOL!
Yep, I think you’ve ‘divined’ her picture.
SO you joined today to let us know how confused you are????
Not even sure it is worth a zot.
I stand with Ted
Option 1: Vote for a better America through better government. Same basic concerns and solutions as Democrats but done better.
Option 2. Vote for a better America through less government. Totally opposite of Democrats, option 2 says "reduce government and respect the Constitution."
All but one embrace the approach of improved manipulation of government, use of government force in a different way, as a cure all.
Only one is guided by the same political compass as those of us who, like Reagan, understand that government doesn't have solutions to our problem, government is the problem.
You haven't spotted him. Too bad.
What state do you live in? If you are not in an early primary state, ie NJ, do not worry about it. Someone else will pick for you.
BUMP
>> Jeb Bush I remember when he was Governor of Florida. He did a good job
Bush must REALLY be hurting, financially. The English skills of the trolls he’s hiring have gone WAY down. Is English even your first language? O habla primera Espanol?
I always love the graphics here. My favorite was bin laden bonking Kerry in 2003
You should vote for the candidate I support. All the others are commies who hate America.
/typical FReeper
Lol!
Ain't that what most trolls would do, anyway?
Thank goodness you took the time to praise a Yeb! supporter.
He did such a wonderful Yob! with Schiavo.
GOPe much?
Before you go, can you post some pictures of you and Jasper?
