Voters should know that just because they like someone doesn't mean they are fit to be president, example Bachmann and Pawlently supporters. They are usually better off doing other things than trying to run the country. Though I can't blame voters, candidates tend not to know whats best for themselves.

Obama is the poster child for that.

I was born in Fulda, Germany.
My point is that the American people don't want anyone with connections to France or French heritage to be their leader.

You have yet to point out how he has used his private religious beliefs to support his public policies.

And she would still rail against the stimulus package; not her fault that it went through. What should she just let it all go to the Dems' districts once its there??? I know some of you guys think she's "bat crazy," but c'mon...She's not stupid.

Bachmann is a smart, principled woman.

Ron Paul is still my #1 choice; but Bachmann is a very worthy candidate for consideration and the left knows it or we wouldn't see all the heavy Bachmann Bashing.

I feel he is going to make a run in the republican primaries.Whether he wins or not it's difficult to say. However, I think he the only candidate that makes the most common sense and has the ideas to get this country in a better direction compared to the rest of the field.

Ray1945 I have been thinking the same thing you did. If he was 15-20 years younger, I think eventually he will be president as I think eventually people will actually see his common sense approach to politics and the constitution.

How is she principled if she is doing one thing in public and another thing in private?
