The Next US President

I don't see it.  I think he is just trying to have an effect on the race.  I see him as an advisor, like Gingrich.  The Republican candidate will probably be a "concensus" candidate.  That will be a tough sell.  At this point, I don't think such a candidate can defeat President Obama.  But a lot can happen in a year and a half.

Ron Paul or Gary Johnson (former NM Gov.) would be good choices.

I don't think that Ron Paul can be nominated (at least by the current Republican Party leadership).  I like Johnson, and can support him if he can gain mo.

I doubt the Republicans will pick someone that can actually win.  If they picked Romney they could win but they will probably pick Newt considering it a throw away election.

and either one is a nauseating prospect.  Might as well get Barney Frank to run ;)

I want a Ron Paul/Bernie Sanders ticket.

Watch the Fed heads roll!

I love Ron Paul, but I think he is too "Out There", for your main stream sound bite oriented American voter.

He's not too far "out there" for the voters, but the sound bites are. Those which are delivered by the major media.

If they say the guy you like is a fringe kook, he's probably right on the money. (Which is to say he poses a threat to monied interests)

Any cartoon similarities to Stephen Dare is coincidental. ::)
