I don't know who will survive and receive the nomination but I hope it's somebody who can help the country. We're in deep trouble and this administration clearly has no answers. Obviously "Yes We Can" was not / is not the answer! I believe many voters misunderstood the "Yes We Can" & "Hope and Change". When people considered voting for Obama and asked..."Can it get any worse?" they didn't understand that Obama was saying "Yes It Can". Hope is NOT a strategy. Obama now blames the House (1/3 of the total) yet he failed to pass a budget with TOTAL control. He failed to have a legitimate plan with TOTAL control. Now it's the Republicans halting ALL this progress? There's always some sort of deflection to shield this administration. It's "W", the Republicans, the Tea Party, earthquakes, tsunamis, problems in Europe, etc. I don't like his policies but would at least have a little respect for him if he would admit his failures. I don't like arrogance when someone is good. Arrogance when you suck is just unreal. Unfortunately this one is not good.
I wish rubio would run. He is going to be president one day. Ron Paul would bring down the debt and shake the hell out of Washington. I don't agree with all of his ideas but he won't be bought by special intrest. He would scrap a large part of this redundant government. I wish that someone electable with some of the same constitutional ideas Paul has would emerge.
