Does that count as a "Yes"?
Pretty much my reasoning. If I *had* to vote for a Republican, it would be Kasich.

I respect Kashich's no-nonsense attitude which I think Washington DC is in desperate need of. He's also not afraid of making tough decisions which he knows are not always going to be popular which Washington is really in need of.


Here's my dream cabinet:


President: John Kasich
Attorney General: Chris Christie
Surgeon General: Dr. Ben Watson
Director of the Budget: Rand Paul
Director of Home Land Security or head of Immigration: Donald Trump
Secretary of State: Carly Fiorina----another person I deeply respect
Rob Portman needs to be in there somewhere----I deeply respect him.

If it comes down to it, Democrats should vote for Hillary. Who is the alternative? A fascist or religious nut Republican? Kasich isn't getting anywhere near the nomination without him somehow being able to turn the NH result into some kind of momentum, but that is unlikely. So it will likely come down to Trump, with a lesser chance of Cruz or maybe an establishment candidate. Whether one likes Hillary or not as a person, she's not insane and she wouldn't completely destroy everything the nation was founded on. I like Bernie, but a lot of his positions are fairly pie in the sky and little chance of actual legislation passing from them, even if he was electable.

No way...he's been terrible for Ohio.

Bernie Sanders is the only candidate I can vote for...even as a Democrat, I will not vote for Hillary, especially when she'll be facing jail time due to how she broke the law w/ so many top secret emails on her personal server...the media is not making a big deal of it but it is. She committed a major crime.

I am no fan of Hillary Clinton, and I do understand what you are saying, but I find these religious zealots such as Cruz and Rubio to be way to scary.

People say Trump is a joke. But if elected, who knows what he will do? His father, Fred Trumo was a nazi supporter during WWII.

If HRC is nominated, I would have to vote for Clinton. But, it would be more of a vote AGAINST theocracy, and my fear of Right Wing SPOTUS appointees.

Actually, nothing would be given away "for free". Do you earn over $400,000 per year? If so, you will pay more taxes.

Somewhat more, but not enough to make a dent in your lavish life style.

Do you own Walmart? Are you on the board of directors of Goldman Sachs? If so, you will pay more in taxes. Your fair share

If you fall somewhat under either of those income levels, and you earn say $110,000 just an example, you have no reason to fear Bernie Sanders. None.

The "free college" is not free at all. It will be paid for by a tax levied on micro-trades on Wall St. We the people bailed out Wall St several years ago. Isn't it time they paid us back?

Chris Christie? His own state wants to kill him.

Dr. Ben Watson? - I think you mean "Carson" - that man is off. Something is wrong. He closes his eyes at inappropriate times, falls asleep, does not answer when called (lingered in the hallway when he was supposed to enter the debate wtf?) He's either on some powerful psych meds - or he has a sleep disorder and an Aspergers Spectrum disorder. He is socially inappropriate, and should stick to medicine.

Rand Paul? - Just no. I do agree that we should not be the "policeman of the world" however.

Carley Fiorina? - seriously? Cara Carlton Sneed - is a psycho. She is a delusional, and she makes things up. Like that fantasy about the fetus.

Actually, I don't think Kasich would appoint any of them to his cabinet.
