We need a constitutionalist who can get elected in a race against Hilary, and against a congress which is majority anti constitution pro uniparty, and then get the job done

We’re going for the closest

As a VP maybe. Doesn’t take a constitutionalist to roll back 19 trillion in debt or stop all the businesses leaving the country.
We need a business man. That’s what got Michigan out of debt.

The Constitution is all that keeps us from anarchy and our nation from being destroyed.
Most Americans do not understand this.

The government only has the power that the Constitution gives it; no matter how “good” the current “shiny” thing looks that the government wants to do/implement.

“We need a Constitutionalist.”

Who can win in the fall against the RATs. Barring that, I’ll vote for the pragmatic Trump, who is not a puppet for the establishment.

[Art.] I said that neither does Trump view himself as a conservative. I stated it was my opinion that Trump is a pragmatist. He sees a problem and understands it must be fixed.

Julius Caesar's apologists call him -- still, after 20 centuries -- a "pragmatist". He wasn't. He was an egotist and an exponent of Caesarism ipso facto; and his admirers are people who like "strong leaders" and strongman government, people who are impatient with the "little people" who run republics.

Wm. F. Buckley once wrote that it's easy to embarrass a citizen of the Swiss confederation: Just ask him to name the last five presidents of Switzerland. His point lies at the core of America's continuing struggle with ideological Stalinists and other exponents of rightisms and leftisms run by strongmen and jackboots.

Fighting these guys off, not admiring them, should be our primary preoccupation.

“Listening to Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders talk about fixing America is like listening to two lunatics trying to out crazy one another.”

It is not LIKE that it IS listening to two lunatics trying to out crazy one another.
