The Youth Vote and the Virtues of Free Enterprise
Dear Young Voters of America, You shouldn’t feel bad. You were not the only ones who drank the Kool-Aid and voted for Barack Obama in 2008. Back then, with the economy suddenly collapsing amid the stench of toxic mortgage assets, Obama and the Democrats did a very effective job of convincing voters that ... continue reading
Ryan: I love the pick!
Governor Mitt Romney showed he is a true leader by selecting Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate – a move that many pundits saw as a bold one instead of another politically safe choice. It is bold and I love it, because it is also the right choice to complement Governor Romney's leadership experiences, and ... continue reading
A Required Bad Investment: Paying Taxes
The economy is stagnant, job creation is practically nonexistent and the national debt is exploding out of control – so what are we talking about in this presidential campaign? Whether Mitt Romney has paid all his taxes. And why are we talking about this? Oh. Right. Because the last thing President Obama ... continue reading
National Security
They think we are stupid about National Security! Who would put our nation’s security at risk by setting in motion automatic cuts of $500 billion, for the Defense Department only, and refuse to listen when Congress offers equivalent cuts from elsewhere in the budget? Barack Obama would, that’s who! As ... continue reading
Energy
They think we are stupid about energy! Maybe that’s why they expect us to keep paying close to $4 a gallon for gasoline, since surely we’re not intelligent enough to figure out that it’s completely unnecessary. America’s continued dependence on oil from countries who are hostile to us ... continue reading
Job Creators Solutions
So you didn’t build it? Right. Can you believe the arrogance of that statement? The fact is our free enterprise system is under attack. The very system that built our great nation is in danger, yes, real danger. So what are we to do as small business people, CEO’s of ... continue reading
Defense Spending Cuts
I’m Herman Cain. They think we are stupid! It didn’t get much attention when it happened, but last year President Obama demanded what Washington calls a $500 billion sequester – an automatic round of budget cuts – to the defense budget if he did not get tax increases he wants. This $500 ... continue reading
A Nation in Crisis-But the Solutions are There
It’s in my nature to be cheerful and optimistic, and I am optimistic about the future of the United States. But it’s not in my nature to be delusional, and no nation can realize the vision of its most optimistic people if it doesn’t face up to the serious problems confronting it. A good leader ... continue reading
Obama Believes He Can't Be Wrong
President Obama says very strange things, especially for a guy who presumably wants very badly to be re-elected. As if it wasn’t enough that he last week went off on small business owners for having pride in their accomplishments, this week he actually told a rally audience in reference to the economy ... continue reading
Rich is Cool
If the polls are any indication, it hasn’t worked, but the Obama campaign spent big money over the past month attacking Mitt Romney for what they apparently believe is the worst sin imaginable: He is rich. And as we know now (not that it was a big surprise), President Obama’s disdain for those who ... continue reading
Cain off the Chain
Conventions During my presidential campaign I was often referred to in the media as the unconventional candidate. When I would ask people why, they would say it was because I actually answered questions directly instead of in political speak. And, I offered bold solutions to the many critical problems our nation ... continue reading
