Thanks W.
Another reason to ‘stay out da Bushes’ . . .
If only Ron had LISTENED to Nancy and picked Kemp for VP . . . the Country Club Establishment Republicans = Losers.
Jack Kemp would have been such an excellent choice.
In 1988, GWHB seemed fine to me but I wasn’t well-informed. As I saw the fruit of the Bush clan, I appreciated the caution to not judge a book by its cover.
In retrospect, the lesson to be learned is to never judge a candidate by what they say, but rather by what they’ve done.
“If only Ron had LISTENED to Nancy and picked Kemp for VP “
Jack Kemp would have been a disaster. Kemp was a hardcore supporter of illegal aliens and he would have made GHW Bush look good by comparison.
Reagan should have chosen Paul Laxalt as VP for his second term. Laxalt was known as Reagan’s “First Friend”, they were close personally as well as politically. Laxalt had been Governor of Nevada when Reagan was Governor of California.
