I could possibly see him as a VERY serious candidate for VP,but not at the head of the ticket. There is more to being a president than balancing budgets.
True, but the fundamental requirement to becoming President is the ability to gain election. You know my view about that - Trump is simply too divisive and disliked - and not necessarily because of his policies - to win re-election. Now I understand that the Dems may misread the public's mood and nominate a radical socialist. But I fear that Trump will prove to be exactly the distraction that will permit such a socialist to prevail, since for so many the Dem candidate's primary qualification is that he/she is not Trump.
These are dangerous times we live in, and any election where most of us are voting against someone rather then for someone they necessarily like or admire presents a dangerous dynamic.
To hell with this lesser-of-two-evils crap. That's no choice, or at least not one I am prepared to make. Mark Sanford is a strong candidate and a principled conservatives. I am proud to say I support him for the nomination.
