Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and  over again and expecting different results.' It is the poor who habitually electDemocrats .... yet they are still   POOR. "You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character  and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people  permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves." Abraham Lincoln

Michelle's In!

What do you think? Who should be her vice? Over 6K FB likes. How does Palin fit into pic now? Thoughts? Negative vibes? Is she just a female politician? She talk or action? Charismatic and leadership ability? Chime in about current front-runners Romney and Cain? USA Today (Today) has headline story on current candidates and support percentages, what donyou think about early percentages?

TRUMP ON TRUMP

Love it!  True thoughts... plainly said:  "Obama must go!"  Regardless who wins republican nomination.

OBAMA TRUMPED?

Like him or dislike him - Trump is out there....seriously, not just "different," he is a possibility in the race for President next year.  Maybe, we need a "business minded person" to get in there and cut the crap!  Maybe we need someone not afraid to say "YOU'RE FIRED!"  I don't know.  The downside may or may not be his beliefs, political leans, political savvy, foreign knowledge (he does a lot of foreign business right?)...but then...can't be worse than OBAMA - truly, he'd only be better!  

Take a moment and take this important poll about the race for President in 2012. Is Trump a valid candidate?  What about Gingerich, Bachman?  Would you rather have Obama again?  All these are answers you can give!  Get in there and voice your opinion!  Newsmax is a major media outlet - copy this post and email it to everyone you know!
