Michele Bachmann for President in2012

I like Michele Bachmann as a 2012 candidate for president. I like her position on the important issues, her character, her solid communication skills and her Washington outsider status. Right now, she'd be my choice as the Republican candidate in 2012.

I like Sarah Palin too but I'm troubled by the media image that she's been pursuing. Huckbee, Romney, Paul are no-starters for me. All are too connected to the DC crowd.

Michele has been sending excellent emails on the issue for the past year. I'm impressed by her seriousness and knowledge of the issues. Her no nonsense positions are clearly stated and suggest that she cares and understands how ordinary folk think about them.
