Thread: Beck chooses Michele Bachmann

BECK CHOOSES ‘PRINCIPLED’ MICHELE BACHMANN AS HIS PRESIDENTIAL PICK






During his Thursday radio program, Glenn Beck said that if the 2012 election were taking place today, Michele Bachmann would be his first pick for President of the United States.

Following rules that he himself set, Beck said he would only choose from candidates who have officially entered the ring. He also places emphasis on candidates who stick to their principles. With that in mind, Bachmann is Beck’s first choice, however, Rick Santorum is a close runner up:

“Michele Bachmann is no lightweight,â€

Michele Bachman ought to get an award for pluck and determination. Whether we really need someone so ideologically "pure" (which she may or may not be in office) I would question. Most of the Republican administrations have sucked. I've always thought Gerald Ford was really good, though, but unfortunately tarred with the Nixon legacy.

Romney/Bachmann would win!

I think she ruined her chances with the "submitting to my husband" answer. I dont see her winning now, and thats a shame

One, this Beck endorsement should give her a big boost.

Two, she is one of the few GOP candidates that we don't know is pro amnesty yet.

Palin, Gingrich, Perry, Romney, and perhaps even Ron Paul now are all leaning towards open borders / amnesty.

Bachman may be our only hope.

Thanks Happy, this is interesting.

We did not rate her B+, but NumbersUSA did.

We did endorse Bachmann though as a member of Congress and we included the NumbersUSA ranking in our endorsement.

Looks like they picked this up, very interesting.

Bachmann scores B+ by ALIPAC, Americans for Legal Immigration

ALIPAC supporters have a diverse range of opinions, yet we are united in the belief that more should be done to reduce illegal immigration. ALIPAC supports those that legally immigrate, but we DO NOT support any amnesty, visa expansion, or "Guest Worker" program designed to reward illegal aliens or legalize their presence in the US. We support a peaceful, non racist, rule of law approach to resolving illegal immigration. America is a land of generous and caring people, but our hospitality and values are being strained and abused by those who are willing to break the law and take our jobs and our tax dollars. America's illegal alien population will begin to shrink instead of grow if we support candidates that will reflect the will of the vast majority of American citizens.

FOUR POINT PLATFORM: "Simply enforce our existing immigration laws!"
Secure Our Borders
Crack down on employers that intentionally hire illegals
Remove incentives and rewards to illegals such as licenses, welfare, and other taxpayer benefits
Enforce our existing laws and deport illegal aliens when convicted of crimes or detected during routine law enforcement activities.
