FreeRepublic | July 16, 2015 | 2ndDivisionVet

If you had to vote in your state primary/caucus today, knowing what you know now about the various declared and probable candidates, who would you vote for? Why? Who would you like to see as the running mate for your preferred candidate? If you could help staff your candidates cabinet and other top appointments, who would you choose? If you could recommend different congressional leaders than we have now, who would they be? And who would you like to see on the Supreme Court and why? And finally, feel free to donate to Free Republic.

As of today.
Not sure what I may say a year from now.
The world of politics can change quickly.

I don’t see anyone running as yet that I can support.

I’m still deep in “none of the above” territory. Walker is probably the least irritating, but his fondness for the Patriot Act is very bad.

Trump should be in charge of ditching the UN and escorting their people out of the US. Turn the building into something useful.

Cruz/?

We’ll defund and close IRS, DOE (Education), EPA, BLM and others eliminating those cabinet positions and letting the states take their rightful place in charge of these agencies.

DOE, (Energy) Palin
DOD, (Dennis Hastert, Sr.)
Fed Res, Ron Paul
FBI, Joe Arpaio

TED CRUZ
Because the Constitution is *everything*!

The next President will appoint 2 or 3 Justices to the Supreme Court.
I would like that President to have an *intimate* knowledge of the Constitution.

A list: Cruz, Walker. I'd add Trump, but don't trust him yet (past statements and affinity), but I'm still watching. It's hard to not love how he's shaken up the libs on all sides.

B list (acceptable): Jindal, Carson, Fiorina, could almost handle Perry, but would have to drink a quart of Jack before pulling the lever)

U(nacceptable) list: Jeb, Chrispy, Rubio (I almost put him next to Perry, almost.....but would need two quarts of Jack), Kasich, Huckaphony; Santorum; and a few I can't remember......

W(ild card): Trump. Dang it, he's made it fun lately!

In the weirdest of ways, I can't wait to hear the debates start and see how Jeb and others handle the Donald. I am hoping he does a TKO on Jeb and Crispy, am looking forward to how intimidating he will be. I really don't think the race will solidify until just before the first primaries, and then it's going to be a mad hatter's ball at least through Floriduh.
