Well, the way the country is going down hill so fast, in terms of the growing population of covetous, socialist redistributionists, I am starting to wonder if the most important candidate issue, with a view to preservation of our liberty is their stance on the 2nd Amendment. All other freedoms depend on the defense of the concept of private property and that it belongs to the individual and not the state. Perry may actually be the best friend on that issue.

Also, if you listen to his interviews lately, he has sounded impressive, and has been laying out some pretty good arguments for his plan to restart the economy.

I was for Cain, but that support is slipping a bit here lately. Newt? Nobody touches him in challenging and rebutting liberal orthodoxy. But he also has a checkered past with cozying up to some collectivist policies. Kind of in limbo here.

Absolutely. He is also on the right side of all other issues, not to mention he actually has a record, not just all talk, as all the other candidates.

This is true. The 2nd amendment is the acid test.

However, in Perry’s case, one must remember that it does not matter what Perry’s stance is on the 2nd amendment if he lets in enough immigrants.

Adding another 20 million liberal Democrat immigrants to our country and the 2nd amendment will be repealed because Democrats/latinos/blacks/immigrants will control the majority of all elections in this country.

We already, are just 1 Supreme Court vote away from the 2nd amendment not applying to private citizens.

Look none of the fools running for office is perfect. Find the one that fits with your Ideals the best and back them.... do your homework and look at how they stand on issues and how often they have flip flopped on those stances.... make your decision based on real data... it will all work out (hopefully) in the end
