Husband Bill says, "Relax." Let his wife enjoy a bit of a private life for the first time in two decades.

But as far as the pollsters are concerned, the 2016 race is underway. And Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul is certainly acting like he's in the race.

The latest poll out of Iowa has former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton beating Florida Sen. Marco Rubio handily (48 vs. 37 percent), but could face a tougher race against Senator Paul (46 vs. 42 percent), according to a new poll by Quinnipiac University.

You are right regarding Dem control. But you see, the Republican Party has been infiltrated by liberal, socialist, communists. We call them RINOs, but communists they are. Both parties are infested with them, and they definitely control both parties’ hierarchies.

Romney was projected by the media as the presidential nominee well before the first primary. That message did not come from the Democrats, but rather, from the communists in the upper echelons of the Republican Party.

The common goal was to ensure that Obama would be re-elected, and the Republican communists did their part by making sure another liberal would be the Republican candidate. It worked. A good number of conservatives, displeased with the lack of a conservative candidate, stayed home. As for independents and the undecided, all that was necessary was a lackluster Romney campaign. The independents and the undecided saw no significant difference between the candidates. So all these factors, plus the Dem voter fraud, guaranteed that Obama would be a shoe-in.

These polls are a waste of time. Respondent probably thought they were selecting RON Paul, not Rand.

Besides, why would Cruz want to f*** up his and his family’s life by subjecting them to the destructive media inquisitions into every nanosecond of their background. The propagandists committed more man hours “researching” Mitt Romney’s teasing of a high school classmate and Ann Romney’s horse than Obama’s entire lifetime.

Doesn’t matter who runs.
George H W Bush 60% of white vote 400 EV’s
Romney 60% of white vote 200 EV’s

The demographics are getting less white every election. How can a republican win a national election when they get less than 5% of AA and 25% of Hispanics? Asian Americans are also voting 3/4 Dem.
The outreach has been a colossal failure. Without the Dem candidate running a horrible campaign there is zero chance for a R to win.

It’s over. Our election process from top to bottom has been hijacked by the liberals and we’ve let them get by with it.

After the last election nothing surprises me any longer. This country is doomed.

Rand Paul has a code of ethics and respects what America used to stand for. He has taken an oath to uphold the US Constitution.

“Cruz is 100% eligible”

You know that for a fact?

My understanding is that in the past few years many states created the requirement that candidates for president must present a valid birth certificate to get on their ballots.

Fyi, Cruz has a Canadian birth certificate.

“Cruz is not a natural born citizen eligible for Article 2 Section 1. Palin is though. People need to get off this Cruz for president kick.”

Neither is Marco Rubio.

Rand Paul is.

I don't think Palin wants to run, and I think that ship has sailed anyway. I would happily vote for her though.

Ted Cruz
Born: December 22, 1970 (age 42), Calgary, Canada

Last I heard Canada was not part of the United States.

Natural Born Citizen = Born in the United States by TWO citizen parents. PERIOD! No exceptions! (Except Chester A. Arthur and Barack Hussein Obama).

Palin/Cruz for 2016 Republican ticket

Or vice versa. I don't see her running, though. So it's Ted for me. Maybe Cruz/Carson.

Hitlary has all but vanished from the public eye. Personally I think she is in “re-hab” for a problem with alcohol shes had for some time. My guess people will say, "What difference does it make?" and vote for her anyway. She belong in jail for her actions (or lack thereof) in the Benghazi incident. Keep the pressure on her fat behind.
