    Not Haley.

    We don't need another politician with hormone problems. Surely we can find someone else. Pence is the logical choice.

    Personally, being a Democrat, I'd have to see more, she was pretty quick to defend Trump's "patriotism" foreign policy, what ever the hell that is, and being elected to State wide office in South Carolina would require more before I'd offer an opinion
    She still backs Trump.

    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Here are 10 key lines from Haley's speech:
    1. "A couple of weeks ago I had this great breakfast with Cardinal Dolan, and I asked him if there was anything I could do to really boost attendance. ... He said, 'Why don't you resign as UN ambassador?' You didn't tell me you were kidding!"
    2. "Jeff Flake was going to be here, but he wanted to give the FBI a week to look into it."
    3. "With all of our differences, there is still one thing that unites all 193 [UN member] countries. At one point, every single one of them was paying Paul Manafort."
    4. "People always wonder if I felt different or isolated as an Indian-American growing up in rural South Carolina. Actually, there was a benefit. It totally prepared me for being a Republican in New York."
    5. "I am still someone who gets very excited about Halloween, but in this toxic environment, even this causes political arguments. Bernie Sanders wants free candy for everyone. Mitch McConnell calls it a typical Democrat giveaway program. The President says its going to be the best Halloween ever -- nothing like it ever before, huge!"
    6. "As a member of the UN delegation, I do have diplomatic immunity ... an exemption from prosecution, or as Mayor de Blasio calls it, a sanctuary city! Oh look, I got the mayor a drink up on stage -- no ice!"
    7. "People ask me all the time what they should call me -- governor, ambassador, Nikki. You can call me anything, just don't call me anonymous."
    8. "I saw Jeff Sessions earlier today -- not in New York. I saw him on LinkedIn looking for a job. Actually, we both were."
    9. "I saw when recently [President Barack Obama] said that we're not supposed to use the FBI or the Justice Department to punish political enemies. Comey, McCabe and Strzok said, now you tell us! Turns out what President Obama meant to say -- 'That's what we use the IRS for.'"
    10. "The President got really mad about Woodward's book, really mad. The book compared him to a fifth grader. A lot of Democrats seized on that, until they realized, they got beat by a fifth grader."

    Whoops. Now anchovies will claim that you think Nikki Haley is a "Native American".

    Nothing to do with race. Sikhism is a religion. Indian (as regards the Asian subcontinent country) is a nationality. The "dot" is Hindu.

    Many American Sikhs are pedes.

    I guess it is just her "cult of personality" that gets you going?

    I guess she would be viable in 2024. She won't run in 2020. She wouldn't have a chance and you would be butthurt all over again. Of course I would never support someone you support just on principles You have poor judgement and aren't a conservative so.............
    ILA, you don't vote for Republican's for President anyway so who I support won't matter to you.

    Haley fails two of your biggest tests. Her parents were immigrants and she's a P.O.C. So no chance you would back her anyway.

    DNA proved warren has American Indian heritage. Haleys has a parent from India. You cannot tar the Dems. they have had a woman candidate and have many in congress and the Senate. We all know which party is the sexist party.

    Why do you think that? Check which party has the most women in the house and senate. It isn't close. Sorry leaning sexist, you are wrong. We would welcome a female republican as long as it isn't Palin the Alaskan squidbilly.

    You're calling LR sexist? Why don't you just leave the computer for a little bit Nordberg and sit and think about your ignorance for a minute

    I don’t for people just because they call themselves republicans. I vote for conservatives.

    Trump has acted more conservatively policy wise than anyone since Reagan. That’s a fact.

    "'In our toxic political environment, I've heard some people in both parties describe their opponents as enemies or evil. In America, our political opponents are not evil. In South Sudan, where rape is routinely used as a weapon of war - that is evil. In Syria, where the dictator uses chemical weapons to murder innocent children - that is evil. In North Korea, where American student Otto Warmbier was tortured to death - that was evil.

    "'In the last two years, I've seen true evil. We have some serious political differences here at home. But our opponents are not evil. They're just our opponents.'"

    That's leadership and it has been sorely missing.
    Sorry, the radical left is evil. There's just no way around that.
    Every life matters
