While Texas Gov. Rick Perry has made no formal announcement, he told Time magazine in an interview he wants to run for president.
"I mean I wouldn't be this far into the process. … The issue of, 'is this what I want to do?' was dealt with about 45 days ago in a conversation with my wife," Perry said. "Prior to that, no.
Being the president of the United States was not on my radar screen from the standpoint of something I wanted to do."
Perry added he has a "calmness" in his heart about running.

I would love to see her as Energy Secretary. That is her are of expertise. I think she would leave a legacy of energy independence for this country.

Palin-Perry or vise versa is fine w/ me.
Except I don’t want Dewhurst in the Governor’s mansion.

I think Rubio loves the mirror too much.
I think he’ll peddle any snake oil that will advance his favorite cause-—himself.
Free market economics for one audience, open borders for another.

Rick Perry has some really good views on a lot of issues. I particularly like that he’s opposed to Medicare Part D and No Child Left Behind.

Obama is not black...for the record I hate his white side too. Allen West, or Herman Cain would both be good choices...but thre is some kind of deal coming involving Sarah Palin. What it is I'm not sure, but I think she enjoys being a king-maker and would be part a of the administration WHEN Perry WINs.
See my tagline I've been dragging around for a month or so....

Sarah Palin is NOT a candidate for VP. You can take that to your failed bank.
