Colin Powell, the man does not want to be president yet, he is very qualified to be the leader. That makes him my favorite. Any one that wants that job is untrustworthy.
I appreciate your opinion, and I agree with you. Colin Powell appears like a reasonable man, and I would vote for him too, but unfortunately, he’s not running, so, of those running, who do you want to succeed?
Choose between the demons of Hell? Anyone of them with their cronies in tow is going to only forward themselves. Not a one is worth pissin on if they were on fire.
But for the sake of the thread;
Out of them I would choose the least favorite. The one that stands the least chance to win. That one is most likely the most honest one possibly. So who ever is trailing far behind.
I chose Huckabee. I admire his conservatism and his desire to implement the ‘fair tax’. I don’t believe it has a chance of passing, at least it would be better than the IRS. That system is so convoluted it reminds me of Rubix cube in the shape of a dodecahedron with ancient Phonecian characters on it instead of colors.
Personally, I don’t think too much of Huckabee. My vote goes to Ron Paul. He seems to get the idea of a republic. The others are running as if for a monarchy.
Oh, and I’d like some more votes please.
Maybe the title of this thread is lame. Only 60 views
Of those running, my personal favorite is Kucinich (4). Given the reality of the situation, of the front-runners I like Edwards the best, followed by Obama, with Hillary in third.
Ron Paul and Kucinich have nearly antithetical ideologies. Aside from their agreement on what to do about Iraq, they have next to nothing in common. I fail to see how you could hold both in such high esteem.
I hold Kucinich in high esteem because of what I’ve seen of his character, albeit very little of it. He seems honest, and virtuous, and most importantly non-special interest affiliated.
Character is important, but so is policy. I just think both need to be on the table. I can see how if one puts more emphasis on character, one could come to the conclusion you have.
