The Candidate by Caroline Reynolds

I, like most non-Progressives, want a presidential nominee and next president who will restore integrity to our borders (i.e. finish the wall), expel illegal immigrants, support enforcement of the law, fight for fair elections, exercise leadership in international affairs (e.g. warming hoax, Iran nuke deal), combat the social rot of CRT, DEI, ESG, cancel culture and the woke nonsense, push for a stronger education system and military, insist on a significant cut in federal spending and reduce the size and power of our bloated federal government. That’s all. Who is this person?

It will take an unusual person to do all of that and I want a nominee who can be expected to accomplish it all as president or at least make a good run at most of it. It would be someone who has some character traits and attributes not found in sufficient strength in most candidates: 

•         PASSION. For the sake of this discussion, this is not just typical, patriotic, love-of-country type passion, but the kind of unabashed passion that causes one to spontaneously bear hug the American flag in public or fly unannounced in darkness into a war zone to greet our troops. It is a beautiful melding of love and determination. This passion is contagious and produces passionate proponents. It is a passion for the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and the rule of law and it carries The Candidate through the hard times with no thought of giving up the fight. It is a passion that also supports policies of tough diplomacy over military force but with the promise that our strong military will be used if necessary to defend our country and its citizens. Passion resides deep inside The Candidate and provides the energy needed to accomplish the most difficult and dangerous endeavors over the long haul.

•         AUTHENTICITY. The Candidate with authenticity espouses what is truly believed and therefore doesn’t need note cards. The Candidate’s sense of purpose to save this country from the tyranny of Marxism is one of those beliefs. Others want to be president but that same sense of purpose is not an integral part of them and they are therefore more likely to rely on scripts. If they go off-script or are caught with an unexpected question, they stumble – not a sign of authenticity. Authenticity gives The Candidate credibility with the voter. If it is real, it shows and says, “You can trust me.” 

•         COURAGE. This is necessary to win battles. We need a warrior president with the courage to battle against the pervasive, dark, tyrannical forces that are challenging our republic as founded. Courage is demonstrated in many ways – like taking the initiative to build a border wall against all odds, concurrently fighting multiple lawsuits, or bucking the deep state – David vs. Goliath. Courage such as this can’t exist unless The Candidate is totally free of indebtedness to other foreign leaders, uncompromised, and fearless of reprisal from power structures like a corrupted legal system. Not having to worry about an election for another term of office is a great gift here. That makes it even easier for The Candidate to do what is right while in office, not just what is expedient.

•         EXPERIENCE. With experience comes knowledge. Having been a very successful private business entrepreneur, and having gone successfully through a steep learning curve in presidential office for four years plus another four out of office while under constant, targeted, bogus legal assault is the unique experience of The Candidate. With the current bad state in which we are, that experience is crucial and has provided The Candidate with essential knowledge. As Sun Tzu said, “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.” The Candidate knows the country’s enemies – both foreign and domestic. A less experienced resident in the White House would need time to catch up at best. We can’t risk it. There is no time left. 

Put it all together – PASSION, AUTHENTICITY, COURAGE, and EXPERIENCE in sufficient strength, and The Candidate is the one for the job.
