Walker is right. Governors make better (more effective) presidents.

Of the three current Republican governors, I’d like to see a ticket with any of these three:

Mike Pence
Scott Walker
Nikki Haley

backup: Bobby Jindal

Walker is especially appealing because he has won THREE statewide elections in a DEMON RAT state. He is also a man of faith....that counts a lot in my book.

Pence is good because he has shown fine leadership in Indiana, and has been effective there.

Nikki is a great governor, as is Bobby—they also add “diversity” (I know, I know).

The drawback for Pence, Haley and Bobby is that they’re winners in already Republican states.

I’ve gotta be frank: one reason Mitt Romney got my vote was because he was able to win in a Demon Rat state.

But there are other Republican governors out there....

Christie does not get my vote, though. Too liberal.

Let’s say it’s Walker, who would be a good VP for him? Another Governor?

Too soft on immigration there.

The guv who is conservative and strong on illegal immigration—and would make Hillary weep is OK’s Mary Fallin.

i live here. it’s not a democrat state. it’s been 50-50 forever and it’s because of three cities. most of the counties go republican. the three major cities tilt crap to make it appear worse than it is.

Says Walker and Perry? Rather self-serving don't you think.

Where is the logical proof of that statement?

The following Men who were President might disagree with you. Furthermore, the absolutely horrible Presidents of Franklin Roosevelt, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, etc. also does not argue well for your opinion.

1. George Washington
2. John Adams
3. James Madison
4. John Quincy Adams
5. Andrew Jackson
6. Martin Van Buren
7. Franklin Pierce
8. Zachary Taylor
9. Millard Fillmore
10. James Buchanan
11. Abraham Lincoln
12. Benjamin Harrison
13. Ulysses Grant
14. James A. Garfield
15. Chester A. Arthur
16. Warren G. Harding
17. Dwight D. Eisenhower
18. Richard Nixon
19. Gerald Ford

I’d like someone who isn’t open borders like Walker.
