I’m not saying Rush should endorse anyone for president now, I’m saying he should end his policy of neutrality in Republican primaries. I cited some examples from the past.
By the way, Rush mentioned breaking the rule one other time. Who was the person he endorsed in a primary on another occasion?
Thank you for bringing the conversation back to the very point of the whole thread.
It's my contention that Rush should endorse his choice of nominee during the primary. He's already analyzed every potential contender in the spreadsheet of his mind, and knows full well who among them is the best possible choice for America.
It's not his uncertainty about who to endorse that will stop him from publicly supporting that person during the primary. I believe it's more a sense that he doesn't want to exert undue influence on the nation's political process.
I believe it's his mission in life to get people to use their own minds, become better informed, and to make better choices about who they elect as leaders. He doesn't want to spoon feed people by telling them who to vote for. I think he'd rather be the teacher, and make the case for conservatism with logic and reason - then let those pupils of "advanced conservative studies" come to their own conclusions as to who best fits the bill for president.
That said, this is a time like no other, and the professor may just have to break with his normal modus operandi for the good of the country.
