So why would Walker be a bad choice? Three reasons........
The world is a dangerous place. We can't afford another commander-in-chief with no foreign policy experience who doesn't understand America's role in the world. As the governor of Wisconsin--as opposed to U.S. senator (Rand Paul, Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz) or a former U.N. ambassador(John Bolton)--Walker's diplomatic experience is limited to settling disputes with Minnesota during football season. He would be learning on the job while rogue actors like ISIS, Iran, Russia and North Korea threaten Americans, create unrest and perpetuate acts of terror. There are times to look to the states and elect leaders who can focus the nation's attention on domestic priorities like the economy, and there are times to look for leaders with a firm handle on foreign policy because the stakes are too high to gamble on that front. Guess which era we're living in.

And what exactly is Jeb Bush’s foreign policy experience?? His conversations with his father, his brother, and Henry Kissinger I guess.
You hitting “snakes” and “sheepies” pretty hard, friend! :)
Yeah, but, remember, he’s a great golfer and you know in the FINAL ANALYSIS, that’s what counts, dontcha’?
But what I like most about Senator Paul is how he supported his Kentucky comrade, Witch McConnell, in his avowed effort to “...crush the Tea Party!”
Loyalty like that can’t be bought...oh, it can? Who knew?
Ain’t right....I like sheep and snakes but, this whack job isn’t what he presented and he’s gotts go or we need to find his antithesis
He is married to a person with Hispanic roots and I hear they speak Spanish in their house...sounds like foreign policy experience to me...
Walker has about the same amount of foreign policy experience that both Clinton and Obama had coming into office. All Obama had were some briefings and a few foreign trips.
Just trying to bring a little humor to Friday, the 13th!
You are correct about Roberts. In all this mess we are in he is one of the biggest disappointments. I wonder if, in the history of the Supreme Court, a Chief Justice has “pen and ink” edited a law to make it fit his argument that the law is constitutional...disgusting!
But, you know, there was a good man 2000 or so years ago who warned about such proclivities on the part of certain professionals!
Thanks for your support of what is RIGHT!
But, he attended a Muslim school in Indonesia, didn’t he?
How much more “foreign” could he be?
He’s just as qualified,If not more qualified than any of the potential republican candidates.He’s overqualified in comparison to the present occupant of the White House.
This crap about needing a college education to be qualified to be President of the United States is a load of crap and Obama has proved that.
He’s the most undereducated college graduate that ever occupied the White House.
There has been a flurry of hit pieces on Walker this past week. I can only assume that means the commies fear him. Anyone they fear might be worth a closer look by conservative voters.
Next question...
They’re starting the Sarah Palin treatment on him.
Ah, yes; Ruben Navarette. An ethnic bigot of epic proportions. If Scott Walker were Mexican ol’ Ruben would be his staunchest champion.
Good point.
I guess Harry Truman wasn’t qualified then either. The nation would have been much better off without our current Ivy League, affirmative action Leftist genius at the helm
All the same, since Gov. Walker only needed a few credits in his senior year of college to graduate, he should get busy and earn those credits so he has the magic diploma by the time he runs in ‘16. Otherwise, we’ll have to hear the Left bloviate about how “stupid” he is because he doesn’t have that piece of paper.
Don't need CNN to tell us about Walker's "problems" - plenty of idjits right here hoping for another Left-Wing romp.
George Washington never went to college and he set an excellent example of how to be president; something that the current occupant with his multiple college degrees has never came close to being.
No Kenya!
