Thank you for the warning Mr. Dondero. As I live in Arizona I rarely hear about Mr. Elder except by reference.

The problem with being pro-Defense like Larry Elder and Eric Dondero is that the US government pays for Reaper drones, F-16s, MRAPs and food and support for US soldiers with the productivity and treasure of US taxpayers. Every day this huge overhead forces more and more jobs and economic activity to other countries.

The US cannot afford to “defend” Iraq, Afghanistan, Germany, Japan and South Korea – nor should it.

I need a foreign policy of freedom, not another $10 billion spent on occupation.

Even anti-war libertarians would consider him a step above the current office-holder, no? The GOP establishment endorsement should be a red flag telling us which candidates to avoid.

Careful now Lefty-Libertarians. Remember Larry Elder is a hardcore Pro-Defense Libertarian. He’s 110% in favor of the War on Islamo-Fascism, both in Iraq, and Afghanistan.

The Ron Paulists, weak-Defense policy supporting Surrenderists wouldn’t be too pleased with a Elder candidacy.

Of course, us Pro-Defense Libertarians would be pleased as punch.

If GOP leadership doesn’t want the Sage to run, that’s all the more reason he should run. It doesn’t sound like Larry to “back down” though.

“What was John Cornyn thinking?”

He was thinking, “Uh oh! better not let this African American get the idea that we actually support him participating in the process; they’ll all get that idea and then we’ll really be in a mess.”
