Someone commented about a Trump meme on my FB page, suggesting Ivanka as the first female President and I thought ... WHOA>
So I decided to throw it out here for our comments
No, she didn’t run and this is kind of goofy.
I’d vote for Ivanka over any GOPee or Demrat.
She can’t be. She’s not a natural born citizen.
She isn’t eligible.
And she would be a good choice for president because?
I saw her speech.She’s awesome. Her speech sounded like something out of Atlas Shrugged which is good.
Go Trump!
Is she for increasing or reducing the size of government? For enacting new federal programs or ending existing ones? For reducing the amount of immigration or maintaining the current invasion? For federally mandated social engineering or against it?
In other words, as with all potential candidates, unless we are voting solely on the basis of celebrity we need to know where they stand on specific issues.
I admit that I have not read a lot of Rand but I wouldn't think that equal pay for women and affordable child care were her kind of issues.
BARRON 2032!
She was born in Manhatten.
Uhhhh ... for future reference, my FRiend .... future reference.
First, we have to get her father elected. Everything else is part of Fantasy Island.
Well I learned something new today. Thanks!
While the elder Trump has been the subject of criticism for his comments about women, his daughter assured listeners in Cleveland at the Quicken Loans Arena that Donald Trump’s construction sites are “true meritocracies.”
Meritocracies are what Ayn Rand promoted in Atlas Shrugged . If you do the job then you will succeed that is capitalism as opposed to socialism from according to his ability to each according to his need. Nothing about need in here or Rand's writings .It's all about being the best ,producing, meritocracy, promotion based on merit not need.
Are you sincerely evaluating someone’s presidential-ness based merely on a speech they read?
Too many Americans have bought into the lie, "Never talk politics, religion or sex" and if you read today's newspaper ... our problems are politics, religion and sex.
Thoughts that are not necessarily under those specific categories, but are somewhat stimulating should be talked about.
We have hurt ourselves more by not being close and friendly communities or neighborhoods than by allowing the rape of our children's minds by the NEA .... which has a lot to do with our self imposed isolationism.
FreeRepublic has been the intellectual clear air I breathe each and every day ... specifically because of it's intellectual stimulation .... of all topics.
Uh, I don’t remember a free childcare for working moms ever being a plan in Atlas Shrugged, do you or did you read the book?
Not a natural born citizen. Unfortunately Her mom did not become an American citizen until 1988.
Ivanka is not for welfare based on “need” but meritocracies based on ability. so Is Ayn Rand

“While the elder Trump has been the subject of criticism for his comments about women, his daughter assured listeners in Cleveland at the Quicken Loans Arena that Donald Trump’s construction sites are “true meritocracies.”
Meritocracy : the holding of power by people selected on the basis of their ability.
Trump selected and promoted on ability not need that is the fundamental difference between Maxism and capitalism
Marxism: From each according to his ability to each according to his need”
Ayn Rand from Atlas Shrugged:
And if you ever want to see pure evil, you should have seen the way her eyes glinted when she watched some man who’d talked back to her once and who’d just heard his name on the list of those getting nothing above basic pittance. And when you saw it, you saw the real motive of any person who’s ever preached the slogan: ‘From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.’
