The Presidential campaign of 2012 will unofficially kick off in the spring/summer of 2010.
Could you name 3-5 men from each of the 2 major parties and 2 or 3 independents who could lead this country the way it should be.
NOTE: RON PAUL IS NOT AN OPTION IN THIS POLL - I have another thread going discussing him. click on Ron Paul
Also please give a short reason that backs up your choices.
Excellent candidates for POTUS

I would take a Harry Truman, Ronald Reagan, even a Richard Nixon compared to the trash both parties will nominate in 2012. -
I'm torn. If Ron Paul was really Ron Paul, I'd be speaking in the other forum. I believe in what he purports, not what he supports. I'm libertarian (small l, voted the "L" candidate in the last election).
Lamar Alexander, R, Senior senator from TN, former TN Governor.
Ken Blackwell (R), former Atty Gen of Ohio
Fred Thompson, former TN (GOP) Senator
Alan Keyes
Tom Tancredo, former CO Representative.
No use mentioning Dems for 2012 as I can't see Obama thrown overboard - yet. -
And since you are speaking in the other forum I reckon I can speak in this one. :) -
I know in the past you've turned a blind eye to Ron's record, but it stands as is. His son will hopefully be more true to principle than his dad. Ron can learn a thing or two from Rand. -
