Bolton: Why I May Run for President
Read it all It is clear that President Obama does not agree with Smiths wisdom. Obamas policies are jeopardizing not only our national security and economy, but our constitutional sovereignty too. That is why I have been considering running for President. The Republican Party must nominate a leader who, unlike Obama, understands instinctively that Americas liberty, prosperity and national security are inextricably linked. Sadly, last weeks debt-ceiling legislation, potentially resulting in catastrophic cuts to our defense budget, only reinforces my deep concerns. This may have been the best we could get, and it is far better than we feared. But the deal risks massive defense cutbacks, potentially pointing a dagger at the heart of our security and sovereignty. --------------- To date, in my view, no Republican candidate has persuasively argued that our economic recovery and long-term prosperity are completely intertwined with a strong national security posture. If no one else is prepared to make that case, I will. Posted by: Sherry 2011-08-08 |
