A strategy is using your position now as a candidate with media attention to influence TODAY the positions of Congress and the administration.

Don't take is as a fait accompli and talk about what you might do in reaction later. Talk about what you want to see done NOW and what you want from Congress NOW to make it easier for you when you take office.

Congress should be running blocking plays now to set up playing field for our candidates' advantage, but Boehner and McConnell are too focused on what might happen if the "wrong" Republican wins. They would rather do nothing if it prevents a Walker or Cruz or Trump from gaining an advantage, even if it hurts the country in the long run.

It seems like Trump and Cruz are trying to influence the Iran deal vote NOW with their upcoming Iran vote rally next week.

That is a strategy. And leadership.

Jeb : if we don’t, then we are shredding the Constitution.

Which do you prefer?

Calling a treaty an agreement is unAmerican and unconstitutional. People who do that are traitors.

Anyway, this sounded like another candidate (Kerry 2004) who kept saying he had a plan. He had a plan for this and that, but he wouldn’t explain nor elaborate.

And we still haven’t figured out what plan(s) Kerry had in mind fixing Iraq, fixing healthcare, fixing (name any problem du jour here).

Electing JEB would pretty much be Obama’s 3rd term.

Jeb: “You can’t triple stamp a double stamp, Trump! You can’t triple stamp a double stamp!”

We were in this exact same position with respect to the Soviet Union, back in 1945-46.

Stalin attempted to move troops in, preparatory to invading (how ironic!) Iran.

Truman called up Stalin. "We have the bomb. We're going to drop it on you."

Stalin pulled out in 24 hours.

...fast forward to today.

Only this time, the advantage is even more pronounced.

We have these things called ICBMs.

It'd take about 45 minutes.

Obama is either a coward, or listening to Valerie Wormtongue, or a traitor.

What a pathetic milquetoast president Jeb would be. He is the living breathing embodiment of everything I hate about the GOP.
