I think it is key that our nominee be someone who can discuss the basic principles involved, their history and importance to us today, and in the future. Someone who can explain and connect underlying (conservative) principles for the well-being and future character of our nation.

And there's no way in hell that Romney could ever lead that charge.

The more I analyze the situation, the more I wish Sarah Palin was running. That remains my honest conviction.

Cain? Perry? Gingrich? I could live with either of those three, I guess. Newt certainly is masterful at conservative rhetoric, and has deep historical and philosophical knowledge, but when he was in Congress he was pretty much an NWO/neocon wasn't he?. The "Free Trade Agreements", etc. It may very well be that Newt could be a good stateseman President.

For me right now, I support Cain, Gingrich, and Perry, in that order. And I'm very excited about these long format debates which Gingrich and Cain might participate in. When will those be?

Yes, I like/prefer Cain, Gingrich, and Perry, too.

I really do think it is important that would-be voters have clear images and ideas presented to them—in a loving way that calls upon them to understand this country. Why it is important that they understand the causes of our exceptionalism—and the costs and the benefits!

I think it is important that the eventual candidate hold up a national mirror for us to look in and to see what image(s) look back at us.

I think that it is very important that Americans understand it is about much more than “things”, or various political or economic “goodies”, or even political party preference.

It is about national character, and well-being, and destiny! And that starts within each and every one of us.
