I have a hell of a lot more respect for a self made billionaire than I do some community activist that has never built anything, never ran anything and has never accomplished anything tangible.
Big difference between Bush II (who inherited his wealth and power) and guys like Trump, Gates, Perot, etc... that did it on their own. You may not like then but you have to respect their accomplishments.
Now I don't know if I'd vote for Trump as he's a bit of a loose cannon but I have more respect for him than I do for someone who was born into power (Bush) or someone like Obama that comes from liberal academia and has little practical life experience.
you do realize that trump came from a very wealthy family that and their history in real estate helped him immensely. trump's dad's estate was close to 400 million dollars when he passed away.
perot is definitely pure self made. gates is closer to perot than trump, though still from quite a wealthy family.
He's smart and he's tough, understands the economy and actually knows how to create jobs. Add to that the fact that he wouldn't be intimidated by other smart and talented people - he's known for surrounding himself with the best and brightest.
All of the above make him exactly the opposite of the weak, incompetent,inexperienced egomaniac Obama and his legion of equally unqualified stooges.
I'd vote for him over Palin or Romney anyday. Just the fact that he's never been a politician (or lawyer) would be a breath of fresh air.
I like "The Donald" but don't think he's "presidential"
Plus, I would love to hear what the xenophobs will say about his (2 outta 3) non-American wives. And I would love to hear what the "fiscal responsibility" TPers would have to say about "The Donald"s multiple bankruptcies and shady business deals in Mexico, etc, etc.

I agree!!
Nothing could be worse than the community organizer with no skills we have now. And while I like Sarah Palin, I would not vote for her for President. Mitt Romney is a good choice.
I like him. I think the would be fiscally conservative and socially libertarian. I know he couldn't win because he has been famous too long and not always in a flatering light. But I would support him.
I think that he has publicly admitted 3 bankruptcies (based on the larger more public projects) however I believe that the number of total bankruptcies is probably much greater (for smaller non-SEC regulated projects and the like)
