Managerial ability?
Why do people care?
People continue to think BO is bad at protecting and preserving the constitution because he can’t manage. But that’s not true. He’s bad at his real and only job because he doesn’t believe in it so Hess dooming something else.
Romney cares about the constitution enough to let the pr staff place it as wallpaper during a debate
He can manage to fulfill the liberal agenda. So what ? He can manage to put down conservative candidates and ensure dem victory
Why is this so impressive?
This country has been mismanaged for decades. Government controls about 40% of GDP and growing. Our entitlement programs and other so-called mandatories consume two-thirds of the federal budget and are on automatic pilot. They will consume the entire budget unless reformed. We have a $17 trillion national debate and over a hundred trillion dollars in unfunded liabilities. We need to reduce the size of government and make it run more efficiently. It is also a national security issue since we are now fighting the classic battle of Guns vs Butter in a welfare state. America is in decline.
Unless we solve these systemic, structural problems, the Republic is finished no matter who sits in the WH. I want competence more than anything else at this point in the WH. Is there any candidate out there of any political persuasion who can run the government in a competent fashion. Perhaps, Scott Walker or Jeff Sessions, but I really can't identify one.
