| Coming from WI I obviously have a distorted/biased view on him, but would you support him for PRES? |

He's never held a real job (other than governor that I know of) He's AWOL on illegal aliens He has no military experience He's an ambitious politician + He's not Ivy League He's not a lawyer He's good on guns He's good on education He's good on jobs He's a good promoter of our state |

But then, I don't live in WI. What's your take on these? |

I see he's finally announced he's in the race.

Quoted:
He's the only one that I think stands a chance in the national election. The only thing that I see going strongly against him is that he does not have a degree, and I am curious how that will play out. No different than what we have now. Obama never earned one (or he'd show his grades) To me that's a plus. Look what the past 20 years of harvard and yale graduates have done to us. |

Seriously ... you are claiming Obama never went to college? WTF ... Do you subscribe to the Alex Jones podcast too? |

I'm claiming he never actually passed all his classes and legitimately earned the paper. ETA - ah, 14'er .. |

My comment is not a statement on whether or not I think not having a college degree makes him a good or bad candidate (personally I think its a non-issue), but instead on whether or not its a variable that the voting electorate will care about in the aggregate. Obama has multiple degrees. Its silly to say otherwise. Even if he did not, no one but a few people on the internet actually believe he falsified his records, so its a moot point. |

At the moment he's my 1b to Perry's 1a, but they've switched a few times and I'd be thrilled to cast a vote for either one. Two best Republican candidates since Reagan.
I do think conservatives, especially in states where one candidate has a huge lead in the GOP primary, should consider crossing over and voting for Jim Webb in the Democratic primary. The difference between him and even the second-best Democrat candidate is bigger than that between the best and worst GOP candidates, IMO. |

Those Canucks pollute WI with their wierd interpretation of the English language. It must be stopped!  |

He's at the top of my list which was reinforced by this statement:
July 13, 2015 Statement by AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka in response to Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s upcoming announcement to run for President of the United States: "Scott Walker is a national disgrace." |

Only smart thing Trumpka has posted in months.  |

Unless he is willing to basically burn down everything throw it out and let millions relearn the value of independence, self sufficiency and self governance. doubtful we can get there within the law at this point. So Sure why not, Hillary sure why not. Stalin, mao, pol pot, Sure what the hell./ |

He and his political team have cracked the code on how to defeat organized labor. They have sucessfully done it time and time again to the point of demoralizing certain unions such as the teacher's union.  |
