One thing that Big Business has shown me is they will always worry about profit first then what service they provide. We don't need every thing in our country based on that idea.

He has some good ideas but he just goes way the fuck overboard. If he would stick to a few key things like standing up for our Constitution and running a organized govt, well then he might be a front runner.
He's just going to have to work with congress. Even if he couldnt accomplish anything, it would be awesome to put a guy like Ron Paul in the oval office, simply for the veto power.

If he can keep his approval ratings above that of congress, they will really have no choice other than to work with him on some of his goals.
