Verified answer

From my most-favorite to least-favorite, ending with the ones I don't know:

Chris Christie: A capable governor who is willing to work across the aisle to get things done, even when it's at his own career's expense. It's a pity the bridge scandal did him in.

Jeb: A competent governor who doesn't get carried away, one of the more grown-up candidates. Not to be confused with his foolish brother.

Graham: Too hawkish for me, but I otherwise like him a lot because he seems to know what he's doing and he doesn't wear ideological blinders. He has plenty of experience in the Senate, and I had hoped he would run. A close friend of McCain, which is a good endorsement.

Kasich: Another capable, moderate governor. Isn't he the one who acknowledges global warming?

Huckabee: At last, an approachable social conservative who does a good job and doesn't act like a hot-headed, closed-minded jerk. I wish McCain had chosen this populist for his running-mate, and I think the ticket would've had a better chance too.

Pataki: I don't know much about him, other than that he was a decent & moderate NY governor.

Bobby Jindal: A bright young man who, when I met him on Sunday, seemed to have a good head on his shoulders. I like that he has experience in the House, as governor, _and_ in the Cabinet system.

Rubio: Sure, why not? Better than some. I'd feel more comfortable if he had more experience, though.

Rick Perry: Not as dumb as he looked in 2011. It's too early to tell; we'll have to wait and see what he's made of on the campaign trail.

Santorum: Too socially conservative for me, and just one(?) term in the Senate, but he seems like a decent guy and is committed to his family, which counts for something.

Carly: Let's see how you do in a lesser government office first, ma'am.

Rand Paul: A libertarian fringe-nut. The place for radicals is in the legislature where they can try to win people over to their positions, not in the executive branch where they have to get stuff done.

Carson: He's a brilliant man and a magnificent neurosurgeon, but telling off the President at a prayer breakfast doesn't qualify you for the White House. If it did, there are plenty of drunken hecklers in the bleachers who would make great umpires.

Walker: I don't like what he's done with the unions, and I find him an overly-polarizing candidate, but he isn't nearly as antagonistic as...

Cruz: He's bright, yes, but a President has to build consensus, not just throw bombs.

Donald Trump: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Fellure: He has had a fellure to attract my notice, as I've never heard of him.

Gilmore: I don't know him, but I liked his girls' TV show.

Everson: Never heard of him.

I am a liberal U.S. citizen who has met several of these candidates because I live in Iowa. The GOP has nominated its Establishment candidate every time since 1964 (and then only because that man had gone down in a sex scandal), so I fully expect they will do the same this time too (i.e. nominate Jeb). In keeping with their pattern in 5 of the past 6 nominations, whoever is runner-up this time will probably be nominated next time.

1. Rand Paul

2. Ted Cruz

3. Ben Carson

4. Scott Walker

5. Marco Rubio

6. Rick Perry

7. Jim Gilmore

8. John Kasich

9. Carly Fiorina

10. Bobby Jindal

11. Rick Santorum

12. Donald Trump

13. Mike Huckabee

14. Jeb Bush

15. Chris Christie

16. George Pataki

17. Jack Fellure

18. Mark Everson

19. Lindsey Graham

Fancy Presidential??? Sorry ,I don't want to go to the trouble. I'll just put what I think is the best and the worse. Rubio #1 and Perry #19. By the way, Perry Unfortunely, was the governor of Texas not Senator from Kentucky.

Walker bombed

It's a great idea, but here's the rub: No Republican can become president with the GOP's current policies. It's a question of math and demographics, not my opinion.

What is your POINT?

A few morons here do NOT choose the nominees. And if you think people here are representative, then what country do you live in, that Ron Paul has been prez of?

Stephen Colbert, with Anise Parker (VP)

Okay, I'm probably wasting my vote,

but it's better than wasting it on any of those you listed.

my 2016 prediction:

Walker / Rubio will win with 293 electoral college votes over Hillary / (whoever)

All puppets, that lie.
