My views are some what caught between hers and Warrens, but Progressives usually take a hard line, there for , nothing will get done, so im going with Clinton.
LOL!!! You voted for Hillary (we-must-empathize-with-our-enemies) Clinton? Why?? Pray tell. She would be worse than Obama. She thinks Sharia Law is okay, and she also thinks (like Obama) that to "slander the name of the (so-called) 'prophet' (Mohammad)" is hate speech. She also blamed Benghazi on "an offensive video," which was a bald faced lie. In fact, she is partially (if not totally) responsible for the deaths of Americans in Benghazi. You would make such a traitor President of the United States?

Holy crap! What is wrong with you?

That's for sure. They say ignorance is bliss.

Considering Obama spent a large portion of his formative years in Kenya, he really isn't even American. He never had an "American experience" and therefore doesn't understand our culture, and who we are as a people. He certainly (though he pretends to) has no basis for empathizing with black America, because he did not live as a black American. He has not had that experience either. He is a Kenyan (according to his publicist).

Out of the choices you listed, all would be an improvement over Obama except for possibly Warren.

I suppose I would go with Romney again out of your list, but I am open to Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Ben Carson.
Good choice!

As to your second comment, Hillary would be no improvement over Obama either.

No, thanks, on Romney. Let's hope he does not run again. Cruz/Rubio

Not GOP. Not about party. It is about the individual you choose to lead the way for America.
It's about who I'd vote for in the primary.

Quote:
What agenda do you conspire?
Conspiracy?

Pull-EEZ!

All perfectly above board and legal. I'll vote for Rafael Cruz in the GOP primary if he's on the ballot. I'd love to see that clown vs whoever the Dems nominate.

And the Tea Party cut everything and remove taxes are any more qualified than she is? Warren at least did things in Washington compared to say Ted Cruz or Rand Paul who just filibuster.

You conservatives crack me up! It might be news to you but white conservatives aren't the measuring stick that gauges "the black American experience".

What has Warren done, since she hit office?

Cruz and Paul both have several bills out there.

The below link shows the legislation sponsored and cosponsored by Elizabeth Warren since she's been in the Senate. There's 5 pages of data... Along with the other two Senators you mentioned. It appears they all have several bills out there...

Elizabeth Warren

Ted Cruz

Rand Paul

Rand Paul

According to those records, Rand Paul has proposed the most legislation at 663, then Elizabeth Warren at 368, with Cruz last at 286. The totals combine individual and co-sponsorships.

Of the 3, Paul has been in office the longest by 2 years, which accounts for his higher number. He and Warren are close if you compare their legislation during the years all 3 served at the same time.

Elizabeth Warren easily gets my primary vote ... but I expect Hillary to be the democratic candidate, and despite that fact that she is FAR too corporatist for me, she will easily get my vote over anything the teapublicans toss out there.
