If you could nominate someone to be the next President regardless of political aspiration who would it be?

Would they come from the private sector, military, big business?

Not that I don't appreciate the humor and the in-fighting I was actually kind of hoping for an answer.

Fuzz isnt there anyone who you feel best embodies your principals?

no one ever hears someone speak or reads an article and says to themselves "I wish that guy would run for President"
Regardless of whether he can win or even wants to run.

Mike honestly I read articles and can agree with alot of people. I think your question might get a more direct answer if the country wasn't so f*@$** up right now.

Im voting Ron Paul period. My vote isn't going to support one party rule anymore.

The problem with your premise I think is its taking a small sampling for an individual to best describe a complete political picture of yourself. Right or left or center people are more complicated than that.

If Ron Paul doesn't get the Republican nomination, I will vote for the Libertarian candidate. Unless it is Bob Barr again. WTF were they thinking? It looks like former NM Governor Gary Johnson may seek the Libertarian nomination. I like him a lot. He was ostracized by the media even more than RP in the early stages of the Republican debates.

He's already voted for someone that embodies his principals. The problem is that with the blank slate he voted for he didn't see what an empty suit he really was. He was desperate for change. Now that the vaneer is peeled back he's pissed. He want's someone MORE liberal. He doesn't think that Owedumba has done a good job because he didn't get Ford too! He likes it when your tax dollars are being spent on green technology. When it gets found out that it's all been a big political donation giveback shell game he turns a blind eye and screams "BUSH!!!"

I wholeheartedly agree with this statement.

What we have is a messed up situation where the winner here isn't going to win. He's going to either kick the can down the road and rack up more debt and entitlements OR do something about them.

We can either sit around with the unicorns, rainbows and lollipops and wait for the free stuff to hit our doorsteps OR act like adults and take a little pain now to save what we have and enjoy later. We can either act like Greece or not.

Our next President will not be running for re-election regardless of who wins. The decisions are going to be that difficult and painful. The free ride is pulling into the station. The wheelhouse is dead up ahead. There is no other run.

thanks ZRX, honestly your answer leads me to my my next question which ultimately is what I think I was trying to get to.

Its seems like in order to be actually electable you need to be part of the big political machine.
but by the time you have spent enough time in the big politcal machine your original message and core values are loooong gone.

No. I can honestly say I have never thought that. Unfortunately it's always been a choice of the lesser of two evils. And for people not running that say something with which I agree, I don't ever think "I wish that guy would run for President" for the reasons I mentioned. I'll defend someone from unreasonable or illogical partisan attacks, but it doesn't mean I support a person as being the ideal, only the one that's closer to my beliefs, some closer than others. Obama would not be close though.

Why not have a lottery for choosing all of the leaders? Can't be worse, can it?
