Being a career politician is never a "impressive" resume, it just means someone is a lying thieving kiss ass, suck ass progressive...I like Kasich. He's been an excellent Governor. He's done unbelievable things in Ohio. He really has turned that state around. I could support him if he were the Nominee. But i think Cruz is more of a threat to Trump. I'm fine with all three. Gotta go with em over Hillary Clnton.
Cruz possesses a Canadian birth certificate. And before you say "so what?"..understand that he could just as easily, for the purposes of the lawsuits ALREADY PENDING AGAINST HIM TO REMOVE HIM FROM THE RACE/POTUS have a Russian or N. Korean or Chinese or Iranian birth certificate. I know Canada is our little buddy to the north, but the 14th Amendment prohibits playing favorites due to "country of origin". So if Cruz sets a precedent, then our country's most powerful leader may be a Chinese national some day.
Surely you could see a bit of a snag in that situation? Cruz will have to surrender his delegates. The next logical choice for "anyone but Trump" voters is not Jr. Senator Playing-Hookie Boy-Rubio either. It's the adult in the room: John Kasich, seasoned Governor of Ohio who has been showing up for his job every day since he was elected.
The US Supreme Court, when this Cruz-challenge is fast-tracked to it and it is compelled to hear it before the election (or worse, after) will find against Cruz and he will summarily be removed, along with any other delegates he garners in the meantime under what now he must be aware of is fraudulent means (donors, you listening?) from the Presidential Race. You think you've seen chaos thusfar, just wait until that happens. This brokered-convention Carl Rove/Dick Cheney solution will be the final nail in the GOP brand coffin.
Better to get behind the adult in the room NOW (even if and obviously that the establishment bristles at the idea of Kasich's more common sense conservativism) and actually gain Trump's flock legitimately instead of risking it all on "double or nothing" playing craps at the RNC convention...so that the Cheney/Rove fantasyland perversion of "conservativism" (blood for oil/ turning a blind eye to gay marriage for Cheney's daughter...etc. etc. etc.) can take the GOP to the gallows for good with voters.
Kasich does have an impressive resume. I have to give him props on that. But as we know, an impressive resume often means nothing in Presidential races. However, if he is the Nominee, i will have no problem supporting him.
In most cases you're right. But Kasich really has turned Ohio around. He's fulfilled his promises and more. He balanced the budget and cut taxes. I gotta give the man props.
