Mitt Romney won’t rule out accepting GOP nomination at contested convention
Washington Times ^ | 3/6/2016 | S.A. Miller

Posted on 03/06/2016 2:26:18 PM PST by LS

Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, refused Sunday to rule out becoming the nominee again this year at a brokered convention, though he insisted he couldn’t imagine that happening.

“I don’t think anyone in our party should say, ‘Oh no, even if the people of the party wanted me to be president, I would say no to it.’ No one is going to say that,” Mr. Romney said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Romney would not dare talk about these issues created by the establishment that went ignored.While there were some valid concerns about Trump he brought up. He made his point now shut up. By contiuing all he is doing is feeding the lefty media meme creating Trump a victim

In this questionaire that will never be sent out or even asked by establishment poll takers are the real reasons voters are angry and it is not in those Romney cited.

This whole presidential campaign is off message
I don’t care which senatorial/congressuinal candidate you’re backing. What is happening here is that these issues articulated in this questioaire format are not being discussed because of the junk Trump with the help of the media who is now playing Trump Poor Victim redirection cards they are playing . Bringing goverment down to size.


Dear Voter
Please respond to the questions below. by encircling your response. There are no right or wrong answers we just want your opinion to these questions.

Are you tired of hearing about congressional bills that are not being read and billion$ and trillion$ of dollars in legislation when so called omnibus bills get passed? Fundings then get shoveled into agencies with the results being government intrusion as well as its employees that grow into our lives regulating US how we; eat, sleep, pray, get married ,oppose our religious beliefs, and think.

Should your Senator or congressman have voted NO on any such 1000 page or more Omnibus funding bills of extended duration beyond 60 days if congress did not do its job and consider (read) what it is passing? (Yes) or (NO) ?

If they voted no and the socialists and the MSM will scream government shutdown.
Would you still support them? (Y) (N) (Maybe). Should Obama care be (fixed) or (dumped) And if either votes to fix and not dump it will you support them for another term (YES) or (NO)

Should your group make this an issue in this campaign.YES NO

IRS EPA. INS..These agencys are out of control INS....
The people who head these agencies get approved by the senate and swear an oath to support the constitution not the executive branch or the president.

Should your congress member support hearings Investigating their funding and operation (Y)(N)
If such officers are found guilty of abusing or exceeding their legislative authorization .
Should they support their encircle which ( censure) (impeachment) (defunding)...If they refuses to do so will you still support them in 2016 ? YES NO

EPA Own waterfront property? You cant clear your waterfront jungle. Federalized property collecting water during a rainstorm and Pay more for the b/s in your gas & idiot lites in your car. Watch what you flush because higher electric bills will save the world and the bankrupt campaign contributers in the solar industry. Ordered modifications on gasoline and diesel engines which greatly increased their cost with regulations that yielded questionable results.

It is time to reign in EPA Funding? (Y)(N)

INS...Amnesty.. Forget about Ebola
We do not allow cattle to enter without a background health and ancestry check. Which we also reqiure of legal immigrants who wait years and still go thru health and record checks. We also require that any legal immingrant demonstrate prior to entry that they offer a contribution to our society and not dependency upon it .

Yet we are letting children and gang bangers in without doing any of this which has resulted in dispersing virulent new diseases (measles) and drug use which has resulted in unreported cases in schools where these illegal kids were placed.. Plus shoved a severe financial strain on local governments where they are placed .
.
Should those given this bypassed favored treatment who miss their INS hearing be deported fortwith ? (Y) (N).. Should that apply to convicted felons ? (Y) (N) Denied re-entry (Y)(N) ?

Should any candidate for Attorney General supporting the regimes open borders policy including sanctuary cities be denied confirmation ?(Yes) (No) .

Should the senate have rejected any such candidate to be Attorney General by voting if needed setting aside the 60 vote majority and applying the simple majority Reid rule citing the Hanen court injunction ruling that would restrict the use of the Reid rule to use only when such a ruling by the court is made ? (Yes) (No)

In countries such as Mexico which claims areas of the United States. Where an American citizen decides to be a legal retiree never mind being a seasonal visitor still are denied voting privledges. Own land in their own name. Face steep fines before getting kicked out .Let alone denied income and energy subsistance including food stamps, or bring in family members .

Should we deny such full citizen privledges to any (emigree) (seasonal vistor) (illegal) if their country does not allow those same privledges we are presently offering illegals to any citizen of the United States living in that country. Yes No

Would you continue to support a Congress member who refuses to support such reciprocal restrictions ? And by doing so believes the United States should support open border one world socialism ? (Y) (N)

Would that also include erecting border barriers such as fencing designed to discourage surrepticious or uncontolled entry ? (Yes) (No)

Should any American citizen which goes overseas to join a foreign entity fighting against the United States (such as ISIS) Be denied re-entry (Y)(N) and their citizenship revoked? (Y) (N) Should that person be charged with treason Y N

Thank You for responding

We’re probably about the same age, so ditto. My first eligible election was 1980. I held my nose after Reagan. I’m not doing it anymore. We need to take the party back from the Democrats.

The RNC and Mitt Romney are responsible for Barack Obama by not putting up a candidate to win my vote.

I don’t hold my nose and vote. I stopped that with W. second term.

You want my vote? You earn it.

Romney deferred to the low-performing Jebbie; I guess he’s not that good of a politician in determining the popular will. A brokered convention could produce Jebbie as the nominee, but I guess that is farfetched.

So you sat home and did nothing.

Let us know when the perfect candidate comes along that fits your high ideals.

A lot of them probably think Mrs. Bill will defer to Mr. Bill, but I suspect she won’t.

The GOPe Support Cruz because they know Cruz is not a conservative but a Fraud

http://dailycaller.com/2016/01/26/who-is-the-real-ted-cruz/

Cruz has never tried to write any good legislation as in creating a wall or stopping China nothing good, only voted and shilled for the worst 2 laws ever the Corker bill and TPA TPP obamatrade. Cruz’s wife Heidi is a proud member of the lefty Council on Foreign Relations, advocates of one world government and the New World Order.

Looks like Mittens wants another shot as the GOP Presidential Nominee, except this time without having to campaign or work for it.

Actually I just heard his actual interview....

He did rule out becoming the nominee.

He said he IS going to endorse someone soon and campaign for them.... and he’s 100% sure that the nominee will be one of the 4 in the race now...

He just said three days ago that he would not run.

The gopE has cut a deal with Cruz to stop Trump. And they already told him what they’ll give him. I say this because he has been non stop attacking Trump.

The problem is will his supporters go where he tells them to go.

There’ll be a civil war, the real kind, if that happens.

This is what it will come to, and refreshing the Tree of Liberty is a good thing.

Even people with very little money can afford a Marlin 60, Mossberg shotgun or a Hi-Point.
