Being President has very little to do with political positions. It is more an administrative position with the requirement of working with big money interests. Whatever politics a President arrives with will be tempered by the latter to the extent little of the original impetus to run will survive. Functions more like a CEO of a large corporation?

There certainly are strong similarities - though I'm not sure what that means. It certainly doesn't necessarily imply that the federal government should be run like a corporation (see the Romney platform). It more likely means that the selection of our top executive should be reformed further away from the corporate model, and the President would then not be forced into behaving purely like a CEO.

He has proven that he is happy to work with ANYBODY. His track record speaks volumes to that. Exactly why I would vote for him.

Here's how the clown car's passenger list looks right now. 1. Jeb Bush 2. Marco Rubio 3. Rand Paul 4. Scott Walker 5. Chris Christie 6. John Kasich 7. Mike Huckabee 8. Ted Cruz 9. Bobby Jindal 10. Paul Ryan I don't know much about John Kasich, but the others sure look like losers. Marco Rubio in second? Heck, he's still wet behind his political ears.
