Yesterday my sweetheart and I attended the event in Boca Raton where Donald Trump appeared. We were interested to see him in person, but would have gone regardless if Trump was appearing because Congressman Allen West and Adam Hasner were also going to speak.
Now that I have heard Donald Trump in person, I’m sure his TV interviews were scripted. One can always tell how compassionate one is after you see them on TV and in person. Donald Trump made several of the same comments he has made over and over during his many TV appearances, but needed to READ THEM off notes during his Boca Raton appearance yesterday. Means what? That those comments and beliefs/stands on issues are not from his heart.
On the other hand, Congressman Allen West was awesome per usual! Listen to the video below and see what I mean! The video was taken by a Florida friend and jumps a bit, but the audio is very clear. You will see how Allen West speaks straight from the heart with no notes. The notes you see was a copy of Ovomit’s speach from last week that Allen read Ovomit’s words from as he made comments about the speach.
Congressman Allen West - 04/16: http://www.casttv.com/video/nbzl9hf/allen-west-speech-boca-raton-florida-tea-party-April-16-2011-video
My hubby and I are hoping that Allen West gets angry enough come to realize that he is the one America needs to run for President NOW rather than later! Just one debate between Allen West and Ovomit would make Congressman Allen West our President for 8 years!
We also heard Adam Hasner speak and like Allen, he speaks from the heart and leaves you knowing he really believes what he says and means what he says...straight from the heart. Many Floridians, including my hubby and I, are looking forward to seeing Adam Hasner face Bill Nelson in 2012!
I agree with all you posted...I was there too; even caught a glimpse of myself on your video. I also went primarily to see, hear, LTC West. He should run for president, and would, I believe if drafted, he reminds of Reagan; very comfortable in his own skin. Trump was willing to talk about anyone, but when asked about Soros, he said, I don’t want to say anything about him. Makes me wonder.
I've yet to hear Hasner.
I hope he can explain his past voting record. I'm a bit leary of the established RINO's in the Florida GOP.
As of now, my candidate to replace Nelson is Mike McAlister...

Thanks for the first hand report, and excellent observation. Trump has definitely been making the media rounds, and I've enjoyed every single snippet I've seen of him bashing Obama, but it has been very repetitive. I've actually quit watching him as frequently as I was because I already seem to know exactly what he's going to say. Maybe he's just ramming a winning message home, but it's time for some new material for those of us closely watching.
“I had stated here on FR how I liked what Trump had been saying during his many TV interviews. He has been saying many things I agree with, but I was warned to be watching him closely,and I have been.” ~ seekthetruth
Prudent lady!
See what Soros purportedly said after the election in November of last year: “We have just lost this election, we need to draw a line...and if this president can’t do what we need, it is time to start looking somewhere else.”
It’s very telling to read the comments section of that article in which many Democrats agreed with Soros and suggested that he will probably withdraw his support for Obama in 2012. Some suggested that the 2012 race would be between Trump and Romney. (I’ve copied and pasted the 2010 article and some of the pertinent comments below under * “background”)
That could only happen if Soros —(who made Obama and could break him ‘cause he knows where all the bodies are buried, so to speak)— finds a way to either make Obama take himself out of the running and backs Trump instead, or if Trump runs against Obama on the Democratic ticket with Soros’ backing (behind the scenes).
If Trump throws his hat in the ring as a Republican and doesn’t get the GOP nomination, what if he switches to the Democrat Party in order to “get Obhama out of office”?
How many “conservative” Trump fans would there be that get suckered into voting Democrat if that scenerio transpires? I think there would be a LOT of them, based on what I’ve seen so far.
Want to talk about a brilliant — no genius — plan to co-opt the Tea Party Movement and put the ‘RAT Party back into power!
Trump will have the perfect excuse to run as a Democrat, too -(the plan all along?)-because all he’ll have to say to all those already convinced is, “I’m the only one who can beat Obama and if the GOP won’t have me, I’ll just have to do it another way even if I have to run as a Democrat.” He can use comments like Rove’s about him being a “joke candidate” as justification. I don’t think he’d run as an “Independent” because of the fact that most Democrats vote a straight Democrat ticket and he’d lose too many votes.
People with money and power like Trump and Soros have one goal - you can forget the little guy’s “issues” - just FOLLOW THE MONEY which means power. Both of them have “a history” that no prudent person should ignore.

George Soros Is Almost Ready To Give Up On Obama

George Soros support of President Barack Obama is in doubt and he’s considering looking elsewhere to put his money for the progressive cause, according to The Huffington Post.
Speaking to a select crowd of donors to progressive causes, Soros allegedly said:
We have just lost this election, we need to draw a line...and if this president can’t do what we need, it is time to start looking somewhere else.
A Soros advisor has denied the hedge fund manager has any intention of not supporting President Obama at the next election, however.

Yeah, George Soros is right. President Barack Obama is toast!
The 2012 campaign has officially started and it is going to be interesting! BTW, Donald Trump considers running, so it’s going to be amazing. .....
I wouldn’t be too astonished if George Soros drops Barack Obama and supports Donald Trump in 2012.
I’d rather have Donald Trump than Mitt Romney or God beware Sarah Palin!

NO wonder that George Soros stopped supporting Obama and is looking for another progressive Democrat to support in 2012!

.....I think we might be in for a race between Donald Trump and Mitt Romney:

2012 is going to be a much tougher and more expensive race than 2008!

Yes Mr. Soros it is beginning to appear as though we backed the wrong horse.

Soros sets the progressive agenda. What is he up to? Just giving Obama a kick so he will try to ram the rest of the far left agenda through the senate before he loses power?
Or does he really thing Obama is a gonner in 2012 and it’s time to figure out who will replace him?
It may be that Soros feels he has to distance himself from Obama so that Obama can “appear” to be moving toward the center and get back the voters he lost?
Soros is up to something and what we know is that it’s not clear.

Thank you its about time we force Obama left or find someone that has what it takes..

George Soros is 100% correct! If the President can’t more clearly articulate his vision for this country; if the President can’t stand up to the far right; and, if the President can’t start displaying some leadership qualities it’s time for him to go. The troops are in disarray and he’s not stepping up to rally them.

I am glad to hear that even Soros is conducting a campaign to rid the nation of Obama. He is influential and the radical far left will probably listen to what he says.

I give President Obama until April [2011] to get his act together. If he’s giving in to everything the republicans want and not fighting back I am fully prepared to support a primary challenger to him in 2012 because I am not happy with his performance thus far.
DCDave 09:25 AM on 11/18/2010
Wow if Soros drops Obama, Obama is done.
MSaxe 04:19 PM on 11/17/2010
Obama is not just going to lose Soros’s financial support. Half of his individual donors or more will abandon him based on his behavior vis a vis the GOP, Wall Street, the Professional Left (so to speak), and so on.
The question is where to go next and how to get there without giving the farm to the GOP and right wing nuts.
StopThePlanet 04:20 PM on 11/17/2010
Let’s dump Obama in 2012. He won’t fight for anything he championed and he caves on everything that the elites throw at him. We need a leader not a lapdog.
“Many Floridians, including my hubby and I, are looking forward to seeing Adam Hasner face Bill Nelson in 2012!”
Won’t that be sweet!
Finding out here at FR that The Donald has ties to George Soros is a deal breaker for me. Glenn Beck may be a drama queen many times but he knew about George Soros. On the other hand, everything trying to help Terri Schiavo knew about George Soros way back in 2003.
