Fevertree Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 It's all about the money. This applies to both democrats and republicans. Quote
Hagar Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 It's all about the money. This applies to both democrats and republicans.I'd have to disagree somewhat Ftree. IMO, for most of the candidates, it's about money and/or power.  But to be fair, LRFan was talking about the voters, not the candidates.  I'd like to think the majority of voters (sadly, not a big majority) will vote in the hopes of making our country better.  Maybe, just maybe, Cruz is the one who will do that.   LumRaiderFan and smitty 2 Quote

This applies to both democrats and republicans.People aren't donating money to Cruz because they want bigger gov and higher taxes...there are all the Democrats and several Republicans to give your money to if that's your goal. smitty 1 Quote

new tobie Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Cruze is ranked in 6th place. Even old doc Ben is ahead of him Quote
LumRaiderFan Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Cruze is ranked in 6th place. Even old doc Ben is ahead of himYeah, it's August 2015...can't imagine anything will change by November 2016. Quote
new tobie Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 Yeah, it's August 2015...can't imagine anything will change by November 2016.Perry or Cruze will not win the republican primary Quote
LumRaiderFan Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Perry or Cruze will not win the republican primaryNow why would anyone vote for Perry...I mean, who wants the country to run like Texas.Let's put a Democrat in there so it will look like Detroit very soon.And Cruz, smaller gov, lower taxes...maniac.This country is much too enlightened to put guys like that in office. Edited August 24, 2015 by LumRaiderFan Quote
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 America would probably vote for Deez Nuts. Lol Quote
new tobie Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 Now why would anyone vote for Perry...I mean, who wants the country to run like Texas.Let's put a Democrat in there so it will look like Detroit very soon.And Cruz, smaller gov, lower taxes...maniac.This country is much too enlightened to put guys like that in office. If these two are so great, where are they in the polls? Deez Nuts is doing better than Deez CLOWNS Quote
new tobie Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 Perry and Cruze will never be Potus Quote
LumRaiderFan Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 If these two are so great, where are they in the polls? Deez Nuts is doing better than Deez CLOWNSBecause these guys make it very clear that if they were President, they would do everything in their power to cut back on entitlements.Too many people now want gov to to something for them.If all of a sudden, they promised free cars for everyone if elected, they would become as popular as your guy, deez nuts.

stevenash Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 Perry and Cruze will never be PotusOnly because they wont promise lots of free stuff. Quote
Hagar Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) I think some folks are yanking y'all's chain. Â Surely no one is so uniformed as to dislike Cruz. Â But there are enough uninformed, and goofy people to vote against him to keep him from being Potus. Â But, as said above, lot of water under the bridge before Nov 2016. Â As of now, he's one of a very small group of my picks. Â If he does offer a free car, I'm all in lol Edited August 25, 2015 by REBgp Quote
PAMFAM10 Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 Sometimes you have to be realistic nobody will vote for Ted because he's seen as radical not because of his views but the stunts he pull a guy who will do his best to shut down the government if he doesn't get his way. Perry had his chance and made himself look foolish. So you can blame it on people just wanting free stuff but. even In there own party they can't get in double digits. So again maybe it's just them.

As trump will say "losers"I don't disagree with what you are saying, but what gets me is many people define Perry by gaffs in a debate rather than look at his many years as gov of Texas.That is what tells you what kind of President he will be, whether you agree with his politics or not.Obama on the other hand is a smooth talker but had no experience and was molded by extremists...very available information if anyone had bothered to research just a little bit.Sadly, this is the world we live in, low information voters that base their uninformed opinion on the last soundbite.As far as Cruz shutting down the gov...more power to him...I would love to see about 75% of the federal gov shut down permanently. BS Wildcats, baddog and smitty 3 Quote

LumRaiderFan Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 The Donald is not promising free stuff and lok at his popularityHe is popular with the makers...if he makes it as the GOP candidate, he will not be as popular with the takers.Dems have a lock on the takers. Quote
new tobie Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 more working people go out and vote than takers. Working, educated people will not vote for the clowns(Cruze and perry) from Texas Quote
new tobie Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 Takers and free stuff............Kinda like when those people came to America and took land from the indians, they wanted free land.......they went to Africa and took people from their native land, in order to get free labor.......seems like we the folks got lots of free stuff......they just took what they wanted Quote
