1. If only we had more repubs like this guy |

"I'm a proud Republican, but I'm a prouder American."
Well said. We probably wouldn't be in such a sad state if we had more like him on the other side of the aisle.

I so wish he was in the debates so that he could call out every one of the others.

5. It's a shame... Participation is arbitrary... |
|
Each group holding debates could include him if they wanted... But, he's toxic to Republicans because of his goal to get money out of politics.

3. I'd vote against him, but not out of mortal fear. |
|
If he won, he might have policies I disagree with, but at least he wouldn't be a train-wreck for the country. I can accept opposing views, but not batshit craziness. (why isn't batshit in my spell check?)

7. I don't think anyone here wants him to get elected |
|
It's just good to have his voice in conversations on corruption if not the official debates.

patients begged him not to.
How the video gets praise here I don't know(I don't dnload video...malware risk)
Beware of politicos who pretend to be left of where they really are. My epal says Roemer was seen as Gov as far RW and notably stupid. He did cut that asylum by half.

8. That's a complicated struggle |
|
We need more politicians who listen to the people who live the experience of institutionalization.

I'm sure there is more in what he doesn't say, than what he does say. He's a Repub.
