Dr. Ben Carson, would lift the lower class not by crushing the rich but through educating the lower class and teaching them to be the masters of their own destiny.
Carson/Walker and Walker/Carson….those 2016 tickets have such a good ring to them.
My second scan through I noticed the prosthetic hook attached to the right arm of the Marine. That clinched #3 for me.
truth – which cartoon is your statement in reference to?
My post is product of #5 and the new presidential voting poll that posted on the home page today. Carson and Walker were on top in the poll and #5 because of the contrast it draws between them and Obama. They both have always known that ISIS is a group made up of Muslims but it has taken Obama months if not years of evolution to ever even refer to them as Muslims.
I thought #2 was pretty funny, so I’ll vote for it.
Ok
For the record, I would LOVE to see a Walker-Carson ticket.
Then vote for them :<{)
The DemocRATic dirt machine could not find anything on Walker or they would have used it during his recall election. Without being able to spread their slime and lies on their opponent…the DemocRATic candidate will have nothing left to run their campaign on.
When Walker ran for governor the DemoRATic party sent their spokeperson Debbie Wasserman-Schultz to Wisconsin to try and use their war-on-women meme against Walker by saying he gave women “the back of his hand”. That was the best they had and it was a complete failure. When she tried it;,Wasserman-Schultz got more criticism then Walker did.
Sure truth – yes – if I could pick any two GOPers to put out there for the election, those are the two I want.
Well, maybe Cruz – could the three run together? Let’s hope so.
Ex-RINO, it could be possible only in a progressives mind where breaking the law is ok and there is a natural pre-disposition to vote multiple times…so I guess maybe you could vote for all three if you wanted to.
Ben Carson is no good. Aside from his pitiful second amendment stance he also wants to force parents to inject things into their children whether the parents want to or not. I’m sorry but I’m the one who birthed my children, not Ben Carson. I’m the one who still carries the scars on my body. No bureaucrat loves my kids more than I do. I will be the one who makes medical decisions for them, not some politician being swayed by Big Pharma lobbyists. I will NEVER vote for Ben Carson.
Sydney, that could be a disqualifier for me too if it is true. Can you link me to where he said that?
Please don’t discount Carson – run him!
He didn’t appear to say that he would force parents – he just says it makes sense to.

Oh, never mind:

I am sorry to hear about that about Carson Sydney. That is surprising to me. I am also concerned about Scott Walker’s position on vaccinations. He says he would leave it up to the states. I would like to find out what Walker’s position is personally as governor. We already know that governments can’t get away with it by mandate. Rick Perry tried and his mandate was overturned by the Texas legislature. I think Rand Paul takes the obvious best position on the forced vaccinations issue; he says it should be voluntary. Carly Fiorina says she thinks parents should make that decision so if I were gonna make a dream team ticket now based just upon the vaccination issue, it would be Fiorina/Paul or Paul/Fiorina.
I gotta say I think Fiorina is honest based upon her consistent pro-life stance. When running for Barabara Boxer’s Senate seat she stayed true to her pro-life conviction even when debating in front of a progressive audience like San Francisco
I hope Fiorina gets a good look. If I could vote over on the poll I think I would vote for her.
I’m surprised truth – she said she probably would have voted for Sotomayor, said that she wouldn’t use abortion as a litmus test for justices, and when she was running for senate, when asked about abortion, said it was a settled issue and not worth talking about.
truth – plus she is okay with abortion in case of rape or incest.
I said she was honest. No litmus test is not a disqualifier for me. I am looking for honesty (which I judge by consistency in stance) more than anything else in my candidates. It is hard for insincere or corrupt politicians to be consistent.
I am not sure what you mean about the ‘settled issue’stuff cause Fiorina is for ovetunrning Roe V Wade. She says the justices got it wrong.
“truth – plus she is okay with abortion in case of rape or incest.”
That’s not a disqualifier for me either. I used to have that position so I understand where it is coming from.
