It's sounding more and more likely that Fred Thompson will run for the Republican nomination for President. Can he win, though, when it's well known that his penchant for bureaucracy nearly kept Bruce Willis and Clint Eastwood from getting the job done against terrorists and assassins?
I think he can.
Actually, the more I find out about Fred Thompson, the more I think he needs to be President. And I mean he should be President right now, like Dick Cheney should resign, President Bush should then appoint Fred Thompson to be Vice-President, and then President Bush should resign.
Do you think I'm going overboard when I've only just started to learn about Fred Thompson, but you won't when you read this:

The only problem I have with Fred Thompson is his "Republicanism"....
Other than this tiny detail, I have decided that I want to be Fred Thompson!
hahahahaha



Here is a serious take on big Fred.....



Lights, Camera . . . Candidacy?
Fred Thompson is shaking up the GOP presidential field. And he's not even running yet.

BY JOHN FUND
Saturday, March 17, 2007 12:01 a.m. EDT NEW YORK--"Expect her to recount every moment of her ordeal," the savvy district attorney mused to his deputy. "There won't be a dry eye in the jury."
"That's a take!" says a director of the hit NBC series "Law and Order." With that, Fred Thompson, the former U.S. senator from Tennessee who has played "strict constructionist" prosecutor Arthur Branch for the past four years, walks back with me to his dressing room to talk about a new role he might soon be undertaking: surprise Republican presidential candidate.
It is a slightly surreal setting to be talking big-league politics. But not unprecedented. In 1965, Ronald Reagan held early strategy meetings on his nascent race for governor of California on the set of "Death Valley Days." In 2003, Arnold Schwarzenegger stepped off a plane from a world-wide publicity tour for his last "Terminator" film and immediately huddled with advisers on his own campaign for governor. Both men effectively used their celebrity status to completely transform the races they entered.

Personally, I think they are all actors. They are, for the most part, great sales people. If they weren't, they would never get elected. Some are more convincing than others and some are really, really bad. John Edwards and John Kerry may go down in history as the very worst actors to ever appear on the political stage.

Hey resin, good week for big board stocks....?


I don't think I will support Fred if he does decide to throw his voluminous hat into the Republican nominating arena.........I more look forward to big Fred shaking up all of the wimps thus far going for the office of POTUS.
Apologies to Ron Paul!
