I think a little lambasting is what is needed. I feel Obama took every opportunity to bash the Republicans unnecessarily. He seems to forget that he is the president of all Americans including the Republicans.

Kasich is the only republican on stage I would consider voting for.. if the election was today

all the others to include Sanders seem to forget they need to do it Via Congress ... it all sound's good in the primarys . Their wish lists

I think once its a 2 person race .. what they are saying now will be far different then

A STRATEGY FOR DISMANTLING WASHINGTON (I like this guy already)

By making government smaller, less costly and more responsive to our needs we can get our economy going again and have the resources to secure our nation, strengthen our families and communities, and reach our God-given potential.

Education is a state and local issue and should not be micro-managed by the federal government.

As Governor of Ohio, he has enacted more measures to protect unborn children than any other governor in the history of the state, including bans on late-term abortions and bans on elective abortions in public hospitals. Standing Up for Life in the Face of Opposition: Because of his consistent adherence to his pro-life beliefs, John Kasich is a frequent target of abortionist groups such as Planned Parenthood and NARAL.

Removing Burdensome Restrictions for Law-Abiding Concealed Carry Licensees: Opposing Barack Obama’s Gun Control Efforts:

Obamacare is the Wrong Diagnosis and Must Be Repealed and Replaced:

The Largest Tax Cut in the Nation:

Eliminating Wasteful Red Tape: Recognizing that unnecessary regulation stifles job creators and discourages investment

he's also been artful regarding the marriage thing


I don't see where Kasich differs from most of the other republican candidates policy wise....

I think if you take a look... I think Cruz, Carson, Rubio, bush, Fiorino, Christie all have pretty solid understanding and regard for the important role of Congress in the Federal government and Constitutional framework, not so sure about Trump....or Obama for that matter or the rest of the dems

are you saying "Kasich is the only republican on stage I would consider voting for.. if the election was today AND ONLY REPUBLICANS WERE ON THE BALLOT" ?

if it's any of those republicans vs. Hillary who would you vote for? because if it's Hillary(pretty stark contrast to Kasich), the rest doesn't matter

Jeb should not B throwing stones when living in a glass house....he reminds me of the person on here that lives in a glass town or city.

Any way Jeb jumped on Trump for eminent domain taking....well the Bush family used eminent domain and used the power of government to take land from other private citizens so it could be used for their own private purposes building a baseball stadium in Austin Texas at the tax payers expense....jr. was governor at the time...if trump had known that then he would have jumped all over bush....

John Kasich has the most experience out of all of them spending about 18 years in congress and was not voted out, he left....what scares me about him he likes to cut into medicare and military spending and supported a bill to band assault weapons under bill clinton....

I like what Kasich did in Ohio. i don't like the way, in debates, he interrupts people and bashes all of them. He might be agreat VP pick, he might be abke to deliver Ohio, which they absolutely cannoy win without, no chance.

Kasich is the more interesting to me. I am not as worried as much about his interupting but he does seem to have a hey, look at me complex. I cannot vote for Clinton. And I refuse to vote for Sanders. I have no desire to vote for Bush or Trump.

Sadly there is no moderate Dem in the race.
