Donald trump president?

Yeah, I'm certain to love Captain Hairdo 10x as much as I loved Ross Perot, because we need more big business thinking in government.

But I'm just being all sour grapes. Perot was an old tech boy. Trump is a real estate developer - and we need that kind of clear, insightful thinking after the mortgage meltdown.

I will give him this tho - he totally slapped Rosie O'Donnell, so he's got that going for him.

He's thinking about running in 2012. He said he will make his decision in June. Im voting for him if he runs. Im african american and im starting to think Obama is a one term president and shouldn't be re-elected .

Why make up your mind now? Lots of things can happen before the election. Obama promised us lots of things as will Mr. Trump. And you being African American really matters very little; administration policies affect us all, regardless of color.

Bit it seemed many African Americans saw Obama a a man who would treat them special.

In what way? Increased benefits and taxing the rich white people to pay for it? We all likely saw the woman screaming about how Obama would pay her mortgage. She was made fun of by the right, cheered on by the left, and still, she waits to be paid by Obama.

I am always interested in the thinking process.

I have tremendous respect for Mr. Perot. What he did to rescue his (EDS) employees went far above what most executives would even consider. For those on the list that do not know, Ross Perot launched a private rescue effort to get several of his employees out of Iran. And he did just that.

As for Trump, he gets a few points for his smarts and perhaps a few more for not putting up with Rosie and her Bull Flock. Perhaps I'll take away a point for carrying on this fight with the Mad Woman of The Airwaves; it was not very corporate like of the Donald.

He is accustomed to getting his way and if he runs and wins, he must deal with others. Not so sure his personality will take it because I get the feeling he does not like to be told NO!

Is there a reality show in there somewhere? Rather, when will the reality show begin production?

We have a thread for Obama, let's move back to The Donald.

His running mate? Rosie or Hillary? Discuss.

Golly, it is Hillary, naturally. I do not like Hillery, but she is more qualified. Rosie is just too goofy and unreasonably unintelligent to handle the job of VP. And if you think Rosie is a PITA and obnoxious now, wait until she starts bragging about being the second most powerful woman on the planet. We all know Oprah is number one.:eek:

I love the references section on each wikipedia page - I always check those out. Often when an article is way whacked, the actual info is there, the author simply didn't get it.

And many of their pages are accurate. In my opinion, it's often a good starting point, and if a page of interest is right, why throw out the baby with the bath water?

As for it being right about Donald Trump, I personally didn't click the link.

I don't want to add the Streisand Effect and increase his chances of winning. ;) :D
