I watched the debate on Fox about 12 times.  I could not sleep and I was up all night on my computer.  Am I boreing you already.  The debate bored me and agitated me at the same time.  The only canidates with plans are the three most hated by Repbulican talking heads.  EXCEPT For Herman Cain.... They seem to love him and so do I.  Ron Paul is just alittle too far to the Right.  Fundimentally I agree with Ron Paul but the transformation back to a free society has to happen gradually.  I want to look further into Herman Cain and see exactly what his plan is.  Ill write about him next.  Tell me who you are thinking about for President.   

There are so many politicians competing for the Republican Nomination for President that it gets confusing. This story matches the name with the face and gives a quick rundown on the positives and negatives of each candidate from a conservative viewpoint.

Rick Perry, Possible Presidential Run

Texas Governor Rick Perry has yet to announce his candidacy  for President in 2012 but…… He keeps talking like one.  So what is holding back his announcement?  Can he win?  Will the Bush legacy ruin his chances?

Buddy Roemer For President

Buddy Roemer, former congressman and Governor of Louisiana,  officially announced his entry into the 2012 Presidential Race.  He plans to run a campaign free of Lobbyist, PAC and high dollar contributors.  Roemer pledges to only accept $100 contributions.  He has taken a moderate, common sense stand on many issues that affect most Americans.  The enormous amount of money that politicians collect in the form of large campaign contributions buys an extraordinary amount of influence.  Roemer's pledge to only take small contributions will free him from the influences of Corporations, Special Interest Groups and PAC's.  Opensecrets.org, a website dedicated to disclosing the influence money is buying in Washington, reports that 2012 is no different.  Almost $100 million has been raised by the candidates already campaigning for the 2012 Presidential Race.      Will Buddy Roemer have enough money to even make the ballet in Iowa?  Will this approach work?  I would like to find out  what you think?
