It concerned me earlier today that someone said that Thompson doesn’t want the job of president, because I am more concerned about the man who says he should be president because he wants the job. Who would want it? It's the hardest job in the world and you are under constant pressure from 300 million Americans and other world powers. Anywho, below is my response to that person.
Thompson is running not because he wants the job, he’s running because he believes he can do the job the most effectively out of those running for the office. For the rest of the candidates it’s a popularity contest. Listen to what the candidate says. Thompson couldn’t have been more crystal clear on how crystal clear he is.
Look at his competition:
Huckabee is a political pastor with no foreign policy experience and a history of raising huge taxes.
Romney is a flip-flopper on just about any conservative issue.
Guiliani is nothing more than a “liberal with a backbone” (as my room mate would say, in that he’s a social liberal but is strong on defense). Guiliani is only a Republican in name.
John McCain is also only a Republican in name, he frequently jumps party lines and cozies up with Democrats. He is one of the biggest proponents of the Shamnesty bill, which would have sold out America’s borders to illegal immigrants and any nation that wants to do us harm.
Ron Paul is going the way of the dodo, and was never a viable candidate, considering he wants to take down just about every governmental office (EPA, NSA, DIA, CIA, FBI, IRS [that’s not so bad hehe] DoE, DoHS, DoHUD, ect.) and retreat from every base in the world. Ron Paul has no grasp of modern American politics, and lives in the 1780’s
Hillary Clinton is one of the biggest liars in history, second only to her husband, and would sell our national interests out to business parters with dealings in China and Russia just like Bill did. Their way of dealing with the truth is to “deny, deny, deny.”
John Edwards is a millionaire trial lawyer who can’t even get elected in his home state (being a North Carolinian myself I can tell you he lied to us when he ran for Senate and claimed it wouldn’t be a springboard for the presidency, which it did.) This guy made his fortune on the plight of others and then wants to turn around and tell you he deserves $20,000 per speaking appearance when he’s talking about poverty.
Barack Obama is only trying to win a popularity contest - he isn’t running for president, he’s running against the current president. He poses and postures, and claims that since he lived in Indonesia he has the experience necessary to handle world politics.
Richardson and Biden are cardboard cutouts the Democrats put out there to make the field look diverse. They bring nothing to the table and are hardly material worthy or qualified enough to even run for president.
Fred Thompson is the only candidate who stands on what he believes in and is the real representation of a capable leader. He’s more than capable for the job, he’s the only one who is qualified to accomplish it. He’s been totally upfront and honest about who he is and why he’s running. He has nothing to gain from this, his only goal is to serve American interests above all else. If Thompson gets elected, our nation will return to the glory days of Reaganism where we realized it’s ok to be proud of America again, where people realized their potential and started working for themselves, and our economy will soar. We need to believe in America, not in what the rest of the world says we should be. Thompson will not back down from defending America. The other candidates will. If you want true grit and conviction, vote for Thompson.
