Perry just sounds like an uneducated backwoods buffoon. He gives us in Texas a really bad name.

The debate winners in my view:
1. Ron Paul
2. John Huntsman (performed very well this time)
3. Gary Johnson
4. Herman Cain
Ya but he has EXECUTE-ive experience!

AGAIN, what is"executive experience"?

Do you want only CEOs running the country.....like they do now? The country isn't doing too well with them running it.


Office managers?

Bachmann ran a business(or so she claims but she's such a liar it's hard to tell)....does that count?


Do you think only business people should be president? NO one else? Then why not Buffet? Or just pick the highest paid CEO and GIVE him the Presidency?



Yes, Republicans have a long history of sexism, and the "glorification" of momhood is part of keeping them in line.

Would a childfree woman have a chance?
Yes, I only want governors, mayors of large cities, business execitives or heads of large nonprofits running the country with the key word being "running." Everybody has ideas. The reason Bachmann, Paul, Gingrich, and Santorum aren't criticized for prior actions is because they have never had to execute their ideas or never had to deal with the results of their votes in Congress once their laws are implemented. Look at their political job history and ask why they have chosen the easy route of never having to run any large scale operation. Even after their time in Congress, they are consultants/analysts. Nothing wrong with that but it makes you a better candidate for Presidential advisor than President.

that's right, he does. A skilled speaker, NOT, a good candidate and one that does believe in what he says YES>

There is only one genuine Candidate that has never flip flopped. Never wavered and has never had a lobbyist knocking on his door.
And he died about 60 years ago?

I think you missed the bolded part of whome's post, which if I'm not mistaken was referring to Perry's bragging that more people have been executed while he has been Governor than anyone else.
