What is it that we want in our 2012 candidate?

Rather than discussing which candidates we all prefer or oppose for next year's election, I thought it might be nice to send a message to the politicians about the issues and qualities we're looking for. Feel free to add/amend/critique/tweak, etc.

Someone loved by the media
Someone who can read from Teleprompter well
Someone with very little experience or success
Someone with covered up background that no one seems to care about
Someone that can be elected on something historical rather than the content of their character

It worked last election, maybe it can work next time around for us

How well do you think each candidate or potential candidate matches to your preferences?

The EPA moved to the interior department in an advisory position only.

That’s pretty good.

I’d bullet point my starting points this way...


They would unwaveringly:

Honor God.

Defend the God-given, unalienable right to life, liberty, and private property of every innocent person, from creation until natural death.

Defend the God-given institution of one man-one woman marriage and the natural family.

Defend the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

Defend our national sovereignty, security, and borders through a firm Peace through Strength foreign policy.

Defend the federalist form of representative, republican, constitutionally-limited self-government — based on the rule of law, not of men — bequeathed to us by our forebears.

Defend the Constitution of the United States, and demand that the oath of office be kept by every officer of American government, in every branch, and at every level.


And their actions have to match their words. Over a long period of time.
