Despite having not yet announced his candidacy, many are seemingly already considering Texas Gov. Rick Perry as the man with the best chance to defeat President Barack Obama in 2012.
Under his stewardship, Perry has created more jobs than any other state in the country in recent years. The Dallas Federal Reserve estimated that all of the jobs created in the country in the two years from April 2009, a low of 37 percent (2009) to high off 48 percent (recently) were created in Texas.
Perry also supplies substance-starved citizens with a deep-rooted belief system. From the surface, his deepest views have not changed much since his early days in a cotton-farming community in Paint Creek in the 1950s.
"We believed in God, we believed in taking care of ourselves and one another, and we believed that America was the greatest nation on earth," he wrote in the preface to "Fed Up," the book he wrote last year.

I wish there were more of it (the public prayer).
LOL, thank you. I will get flamed but I do hope she doesn't run as she will get beat like a drum. The only ones that are crazy for her are on the far right, not enough to carry an election. She is great, a super campaigner but, and it is a big but, the baggage she brings will stop her cold.
Then why do you post in them? Why don’t you go post in a Palin thread? Just because the only Palin threads are about her big hair don’t slum it and post in here.
They won’t hear you they make up crap as they go along to suit their delusions of being her campaign manager.
Written by someone who is not a fan.
Remember she left office with around $600K in legal bills.
You persist in your inuendo while denying you are doing it.
Two book sales ($$$)
Two TV gigs ($$$)
Paid speeches ($$$)
I guess it is all about money, money, money not sex, sex, sex.
You insist on ignoring the facts.
As for your sex, sex, sex comment, since I have never mentioned sex at all with regard to Palin (), I can only conclude that you are projecting a personal issue of yours on to me....please do not do that again.
Have a nice day.
She’s got my vote if she makes it that far. I just don’t think she will be the nominee. Quitting as gov. of Alaska was a fatal mistake in my humble opinion.
Yeah, but they're just so, so principled.
So principled they levitate.
If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.Or you can get raw with these strings. Either way, the violin is sweet yet lethal.
Do it!
Sorry no sale. Reagan became a Republican because the demrat party no longer represented what he believed. We know that becuase we have the history.
Perry’s problem is that there is no credible history of his beliefs. He may be just another demrat masquerading as a Republican. We have four great proven conservative candidates already. There is no reason for me to take a chance on Perry.
That may not be what you want to hear, but that is Tea Party reality. We won’t be fooled again.
Went right over your head, did it?
Money, Money, Money, it is all about Money.
That is one ugly character there! Something out of a science fiction alien movie.
Yep, he has done that...And he also caves when the deck, and the public are stacked against him...
I’m really glad you’ve made your decision already...
And I like that choice...
