How many have their “$100,000 wasted” rings and BMW bonus?
Excellent - thank you.
Coool.
A hit list.
Nice. But we need Trey Gowdy for Attorney General.
That’s one heck of a cabinet...
That’s excellent! I’ve thought about that a lot. Why just run two candidates and let the press pick them apart? Why not announce who your powerhouse team will be and let the members of that team fan out across the country during the election, making appearances and speeches? You cover a lot more territory and energize a lot more voters. And your opponents and the press get a bigtime headache. It’s a real winner.
David Barton?
No thank you.
No to theonomy.
They didn’t even fill it out. Who is secretary of defense, V.A., Interior, etc.?
We need Cruz to run the US Senate.
Lt. Col. Allen West for President/ Commander in Chief.
Dr. Ben Carson for Veep and to abolish Obamacare.
Trey Gowdy or Jim Jordan for Speaker of the House.
Jeb Bush as Co-Co-Chairman of the Committee to select Committees to solicit bids for the construction of the US Senate Memorial RINO Statue, and the much smaller RINO Calf Statue for the US House of Representatives.
I’m OK with it. You could tweak here and there...but I’d vote for this exactly as it is.

Maybe because it provides the opposition with a list of who it has to bring down well in advance?
Not bad. I don’t know about Rand Paul though. He’s been flip flopping a bit lately
