Keyes in 08? - AR15.COM

Posted: 10/5/2004 6:34:57 PM EDT

So what do you think about Allen Keyes in 08? I have a boring job and this was the thought of the day. The great thing about a black republican canidate would be the democrats would have a hard time attacking him without violating their own PC rules. Although I could easilly see people like Al Sharpton coming out to speak against him. (I think thats one of the PC rules, cant ever critisize someone who is of a different race.) I think he would stand a chance. I know he ran for election mabey 12 years ago and I guess it was embarrasing for him, but I was real young then and cant remember any details. I think all this liberalism could actually be used to put a conservative in the White House. Whasnt Lincon a republican and he freed the slaves. Of course, running Hitlary against him would level the playing feild, in my humble opinion.

IMHO, He looks like a fucking nutjob sometimes. I don't want someone that Jesus Crispy running the country.

I lost all respect for him when he seriously proffered forth that ridiculous reparation "compromise" solution of his. He is a brilliant man, it disappointed me.

Bingo, we have a winner. He's running here now, against the better judgement of the upper republicans in the state. I'm voting for him, only because is by far the lesser of 2 evils. Obama Mama will really screw the pooch in DC.

At first I thought Keyes was just a passionate, true conservative. Now I just think he's on amphetamines.

Alan Keyes is absolutely brillant. But American is not ready for him yet.

With the right exposure maybe. Can you imagine him as Cheif of Staff.

I still think a Rice/Keyes ticket in 08 would be hard to beat.

Dr. Keyes is a brilliant man, however, I do not want to live in a theocracy.

I think Keyes would be a good VP. But not pres.

Now, Rice, on the other hand.....Put her up agains the hill-beast in 08 and watch the dem's take a collective shit. they'd lose any advantage they'd get from having a female candidate, and to add insult to injury, they'd lose their advantage amongst the black vote. And to top it off, C. Rice is friggin SMART

Rice/Frist, either one at the top of the ticket.

He lost a lot of stock when he flip-floped by bashing HIllary as a carpetbagger and then did the same thing himself. Those of us that are his biggest fans are such because of his claritity of character...this flip-flop cast dispersions on that immage.

Compared to what?

Actual morality and ethics would be a "bad thing"?

Hmmmm.......maybe you're closer to Kerry/Edwards than you think?

I'd support Keyes for many reasons!
I'd support him as he stuck his thumb in the black communities eye!
