"He's also my dream candidate for 2012!"
Rick Perry is a long-time, actively working conservatve governor of a state with over 25,000,000 people.
The ACORN picture you have prominently displayed is from 2005, when the ACORN that we know today was unknown.
And your inflammatory headline under the picture of Perry and Aga Khan is a testament that yellow journalism lives.
Texas, being a border state sharing a 1250 mile international border with America’s Number 1 trading partner, it makes sense that Gov. Rick Perry would know and work with Mexican presidents.
Regarding vetting for a 2012 presidential pick, there is only one person held in reverence and complete adulation by hopeful supporters.
Rick Perry is a hard working candidate for the GOP Primary and he is doing a good job proving himself to the votes.
"He's also my dream candidate for 2012!"
You make good points. A person in high political office must meet hundreds of people every week, and give them a photo op as well. If Perry would not receive visiting dignitaries, like the Aga Khan, and be civil to them, there would be something wrong with him.
In 2005 I certainly knew who ACORN was. I can’t believe that Gov. Perry did not.
