I’d like to wait until I know what the options are. I would love Ted Cruz to be President if he’s eligible. I would first want to protect him from getting sucker-punched by Hillary and John Roberts.

I’d love Palin to be President if we could get her elected. The media’s been so jerk-ish to her and I’m not sure if she could overcome that with the uninformed voters, which is a very sad thing to say. To be truthful, the media is the nation’s biggest enemy at this point and we’ve got to bust them somehow if we’re going to get real conservatives who will fight the DC corruption.

I supported Herman Cain until he dropped out and then I supported Newt Gingrich. I voted for Mitt Romney because I thought anything would be better than Obama but it was hard to say much about him in the general election because I had written a letter to the editor during the primary urging support for Newt, explaining that Romney was the FIRST to force Catholic hospitals to administer abortifacients. I severed ties with several supposedly “pro-life” groups after they endorsed Romney in the primary in return for money.

At this point it’s too early to say how things will look in 2016. I’d like to clear the way so that the eligibility issue really IS resolved before we have to vote in a primary. I will abide by the law of the land and if it is ruled that Cruz is eligible I would like to vote for him. If he isn’t, then I hope he would become the majority leader for the Senate, as I explained to Graewoulf earlier. As long as we’ve got somebody solid as President to put in a truly good Cabinet, the POTUS isn’t as critical, although being able to communicate is critical for whoever is POTUS. But the leadership of the House and Senate are crucial positions. I like what both Cruz and Lee have done there so far. Aside from Palin there’s nobody who really excites me for POTUS other than those 2 guys. Jason Chaffetz was pretty good on the Benghazi hearing but I don’t know much else about him. So was Trey Gowdy but again, I don’t know much about them. I will gag a thousand times if we nominate Jeb Bush.
