I love Fred Thompson, both as an actor and as a politician (and probably would as a president). He was my first choice in the beginning. To me, he kinda gives off the Reagan vibe, I dunno.

And I love how in this video he’s reverberating the Madisonian belief that an executive and a legislative branch of the same party would only lead to a “mobocracy”. A policy decision will be much more stable if the president and the Congress were of different parties because each side would fight in order to compromise.

All in all, I just love this guy. =)

Nothing to add. Great speech there Fred.

I was pulling for Fred in the NV caucus. Videos like this, and his convention speech, are bittersweet reminders of what I hoped would be.

[The Republican party missed the boat, too damn bad.] by sarge charlie.

?? Sorry, sarge, I think you’ve jumped way ahead of yourself! And, you very much have underestimated the American people in general. There are many who do not favor Obama, including Democrats and Independents, as well as Republicans. Most people are not swayed by the Left, and the Leftist media’s hype. So, not sure what you mean exactly.

This great video should be in the “Feature Post” section up there in the right column of this FA site. Everyone should see this video.

Ha, Curt, you beat me to it…I was going to post this video, too, but glad you did because mine would have been a link only (haven’t figured out the posting a video thing yet)! I watched it this morning, and it’s good for those of us former FredHeads who needed a “Fred Fix”. And, Jeri was on fire last night on Hannity & Colmes, too. Put Allan in his place, I’d say. I’d like to see both of them in a McCain Administration! Atleast Fred, since Jeri has to take care of the kids, I’m sure, but I’d love to continue to see more of the Thompson family in the near future.

Standing ovation for Fred Thompson!

As the guys at IMAO said when he dropped out of the race, “one day America will be cool enough to have Fred Thompson as President.”

Fred’s the man.
