We as a nation 'dismissed character as the foundation for leadership' with the election of Obama. The least vetted, most inept and leftist president in our history.

I don't think their sex lives OR tax records are any on our business. Whether or not they are natural born Americans,will uphold the Constitution, are capable of understanding what needs to be done and how to do it IS..

Once gain, the election will boil down to voting for the "cream of the crap", a person we really don't want/like, but whom we must vote for in order to defeat the opposition. Truly an indication of how far we have slipped as a nation....sad.

What a difference between the writing of George Will, and that of Cal Thomas. George Will`s ramblings are totally devoid of reality, while Cal`s are thoughtful and insightful. Thanks Cal for giving us something other than the bland, RHINO bilge that the DC insiders like Will try to pour down our throats.

While I'm not sure where Thomas stood 4 yrs ago, it is interesting, most of the conservative media spent the last presidential primary season crucifying the man who would then become the nominee.

So much so than when the election came, only die hard Republicans would vote for John McCain, and Barack Obama won rather easily scooping up all the so called independents who had heard how terrible McCain was for months on end.

The president we have now is our right wing media's gift. People like Anne Coulter saying she would vote for Clinton over McCain. Thank you, thank you Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Anne Coulter, etc etc etc for Barack Obama.

Deja vu? Perhaps, but it is for this reason alone many conservatives will vote for whoever the "conservative" media tells them not to and against whoever they endorse.

Here we go all over again! "Helen Keller once said, 'We vote, what does that mean? It means that we choose between two bodies of real, though not avowed, autocrats. We choose between Tweedledum and Tweedledee.' The election process has not only programmed Americans to put their trust in 'princes,' [Psalm 118:8-9] but to accept the lesser of two evils. Or is it the evil of two 'lessers'? That this is true of most Christians was demonstrated in the 2008 Presidential election:

'At a meeting Tuesday [July 1, 2008] in Denver, about 100 conservative Christian leaders … agreed to unite behind the candidacy of John McCain, a politician they have long distrusted…. Phil Burress … said … “I was once one of those people who said ‘no way’ to Sen. John McCain as President. No longer, the stakes are too high. And if Obama wins I need to be able to get up on November 5th, look at myself in the mirror, and when I pray, say, ‘Lord, I did all that I could.”'

'“The alternative is so bad we must support John McCain,” said Phyllis Schlafly…. One participant said he couldn’t imagine anything worse. “Obama has done the impossible,” he said, “He’s made Hillary Clinton look good to Christian conservatives.”'

"This occurred because – unlike Yahweh’s system, which provides for the appointment of the best of the best – the Constitution compels people to (hopefully) elect the best of the worst. It also necessitates political parties that are not only unbiblical but whose platforms are invariably ungodly. Political parties are the mechanism by which Christian constituents are offered up on the altar of WE THE PEOPLE.

"After every election, regardless who’s elected, Americans eventually have cause for regret (Proverbs 29:2). And yet, every four years, they march right back to the voting booths with eternal hope (or is it merely short-sightedness?) and do it all over again. Elections provide us with a lose-lose proposition. On the other hand, when we have two or more Biblically qualified candidates, we end up with a servant of God, regardless who’s appointed."

One question that needs to be answered is: Will he uphold his oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic?

Another question: Is he born in the United States? We require an I-9 to hire an employee, couldn't we require the same of a presidential candidate?

There is only one candidate we can trust to uphold the Constitution. The problem is he will not participate in the bidding process for the undeclared, unauthorized military interventions in other nations. They are unconstitutional presidentially instigated treasonous actions. The paid media messengers are responsible for the popular myths surrounding these wars and their owners are the ones profiting from these wars. The media can't afford to accurately report the source of the war propaganda.

Until character is more important than the illusions of the paid media messengers, the illusions will gain the white house. There is only one candidate with the character to do the job. All the others are hollow pretty boys setup to let the bankers and the politicians continue destroying our nation and gathering their stolen money. This president would have been impeached if congress knew and was doing its job.

@Sherry,

I would presume your are talking about either Marco Rubio or Alan West. What a President/Vice President Ticket that would be. Place either name in either place. Personally I prefer Alan West but there is so little to choose between the two that either one as President would be fine with me.
